my first mould

made my first mould! needed some more howda's for my undead elephants. and just buying a couple of boxes just for the howda's seems a little bit too much. so why not try to cast them. Not to bad for a first attempt... I know, it is not legal to make copies!! I promise that my next mould will be from one off my own designs. (or perhaps that GW leman russ battletank in 20mm...wha, wha, wha, (evil laughing))

more undead knights and a general

just a little break from painting french napoleonics. (7 infantry units so far!) these undead knights stood, half painted, for a couple of months on my desk. finaly finished them, together with a undead general and his winged nightmare mount (splintered light miniatures).

another wargame

we had another wargame this weekend, again the romans against hanibal and his elephants. (still learning the warmaster ancients rules !!)

The roman clash with the carthaginian in the centre


the battlefield, on the carthaginian left flank, hidden by the trees, 4 units numidian horse and 3 units barbarian infantry threatend the roman right flank !!!


after destroying the roman heavy cavalry and some roman legionairs, the carthaginian elephants get surrounded.





again the roman won, but only by killing the carthaginian general. all together it was a real thight game, with lot of destroyed units on both sides...
