Orc team for BloodBowl ready

Just few pictures of my eurobowl team. I wanted to do all in NMM, so it took considerately more time to pain them, but I like the result.

Eurobowl 2013 in Vienna

Finnish team taking on Holland

So, eurobowl is now over. My initial target to win one game turned out to be three wins and three losses, so I'm really happy (and amazed) ..and hung over..

Team Finland ended up second to last (edit: one place higher), but everyone was having a great time, which was the important thing.

Saga Battlereport: Pagan Rus vs. Steppe Nomads

 We played a game of saga at Teemu's home. This time Teemu used WI :s Steppe Nomads, who have a capability to move fast and pulverize units with shooting.
I played Pagan Rus. It became apparent, that it is the anti shooting/movement faction with its battleboard..

Heres some music to go with the report :)

Battle against the painting queue

This week, Ive been mostly painting U.S rangers to get correct platoon composition for Chain of Command, I was missing riflemen mostly. After painting over 10k points worth of American troops to Flames of War, I have a pretty established routine of painting them, and it applies well to 28mm, I just tone the colours down a bit, 15mm needs more contrast and stronger colours overall.

Chain of Command rules review

We played our first game of Chain of Command from Too Fat Lardies.

Tip for basing your toy soldiers

Sometimes speed is essential in both painting and basing.
A while ago I managed to create a method that speeds up the process somewhat, and gives me ok look compared to my previous PVA glue + sand type basing.
This is also applicable to terrain making where you need to cover large surfaces fast.

Blood Bowl Troll ready

At last. After yesterday's SAGA tournament, I started painting this "beauty". With it, I tried a couple of new things.
