Showcase: 28mm pigs

Say 'hello' to Napoleon, Snowball and Squealer (of course)!

Finally that pigsty I built about two years ago got some livestock to serve its original purpose!

Pigs of course make for great "dynamic" mission objectives through all settings and periods in which people enjoy the taste of bacon. As I play a variety of Fantasy, Sci-Fi and historical settings I always aim for very "general purpose" terrain and objectives. ;) I very vividly remember a game of Dux Britanniarum (Saxon Raiders vs. Romano-Britons. Excellent, excellent set of rules.) in which I, as the Saxon Raiders, had to drive a few pigs my boys just had nicked from a British village across the table and back into my camp's safety before the angry Britons would catch up to get their stuff back. Of course the pigs did not cooperate and I had to leave all but one behind. The rest of the pigs just ran off into a forest, away from the Saxons and Britons alike.



The models are by Architects of War. I bought them at Austrian Salute. Here's my report of this fine day out!

Showcase: Death Korps of Krieg Mounted Commissar

Look at my horse. My horse is amazing.

To round off the Death-Korps-alooza today I present you with a showcase piece I made for the same client I did all the DKoK guys I posted recently for.

Showcase: Death Korps of Krieg Group Shot

As all the Grenadiers are done now I guess it's time for a group shot! What do you think, Sirs?

Show report: Austrian Salute 2015

For those of us for whom Salute is too far a trip to take year after year there are lots of local alternatives (some even sharing the name of the original show!). For instance: Austrian Salute.

Showcase: More Death Korps of Krieg Grenadiers

Here we got ten more Grenadiers for the Death Korps. Flamer, that fancy grenade launcher, hellguns. Highly useful and pretty models to boot!

Showcase: Death Korps of Krieg Heavy Weapons

Now for some fire support for the Death Korps boys: It's a heavy flamer team and a twin-linked heavy stubber on the move.

Showcase: Death Korps of Krieg Commissar

Can't have Imperial Guard without a commissar, so here's one! The ever-popular mounted DKoK commissar, event-only miniature at FW Open day 2008.
