15mm.co.uk adventurer, Khurasan starship crew, and 15mm.co.uk Rim Mercenary Wow, did I screw up the face on that mercenary or what?  My starship crewman is painted up in a more flamboyant space pirate style… …he’s also a bit of a Deadhead, as you can see.  The adventurer on the...

Win their minds when they are young, and you’ll have them for a lifetime… Choosing a starting figure. Time for flocking. I’m really more of a historical wargamer, Dad....

As above, so below.  In life there are svelte and petite people and there are big ol’ chunky people.  So why should life on the tabletop battleground be any different?   That’s the question for today’s comparison between Khurasan and 15mm.co.uk figures. On the one hand, there is a...

The Old Gang has met a few times to work our way through the D&D 5th edition feature campaign, A Tyranny of Dragons, and while playing my son pointed out how far behind this blog was.  Here’s a quick update for those of you comparing your experience to mine:...

To say I haven’t been painting much lately would be a lie – I’ve painted the kitchen, the bathroom, the garage, etc.  Painting terrain at 1:1 scale isn’t as much fun as the 1:100 scale, so no pictures for you on that front.  On the sci-fi front, here’s the...

More painted miniatures ready to roll.  These are more Khurasan figures – the bounty hunter pack 80% complete – for use in some sci-fi skirmishing.  Still haven’t run a game of 5 Parsecs from Home just yet, but we’re getting closer....

Nothing fancy this update.  Just a couple of quick shots of my freshly painted scientists from Khurasan Miniatures.  The scientist on the left seems like a bit of a mis-cast – his right eye has a gaping hole where his glasses should be, but it works just fine.  My...

Having escorted a small band of villagers and much needed supplies into the safety of Greenest’s keep, our heroes could spare little time for rest.  Tarbau and Escobar, the ranking officials within the keep, expressed profuse thanks and offered a safe place for a short rest.  First, though, something...

Still prepping to run a game of “Five Parsecs From Home”, a game that calls out for a bunch of random figures more than a coherent squad of uniformed types.  The failed experiment in tweaking 15mm figures left me with a couple of heavy armored alien types.  To split...
