Ponderings on the New Year...

Hi!

Well its been an eventful year and sadly I've still not managed to keep to my plan of playing 52 games over the course of it!

Its getting to the point of the year when miniature companies have sales and thus far two especially have caught my eye, Brigade Models and Astro Miniatures!

BRIGADE always have a very tempting sale and as I now have a full time job I actually have a little disposable income and am sorely tempted to pick up some Aeronef goodness!

Brigade Nef

I've been pondering trying out Aeronef for quite some time now but every time they have a sale, I've been skint! I have a few ideas kicking around for some themed mini campaigns which could be fun. To top it off I still want to pick up some more 6mm and 15mm bits and bobs to round out various projects!

ASTRO MINIATURES does some nice pseudo Star Trek figures in 15mm scale and I must admit its tempting to pick up some so I can play some classic Trek skirmishes between the Federation and Klingons to name but a few!

Astroverse Set!

For $30 one cant go too far wrong and I may have to pick some up and they make excellent stand ins for Stainless Steel Rat games too!

Other than that I have to admit I have enjoyed working on the cars for my Forgotten Highways, post apocalyptic project but work always intrudes to stop me getting more done!

Post Apocalyptic Fun!

Finally theres my Rusty Robot project, which I've been beavering away with for quite some time now and am hoping to get a Kickstarter type of project up and running in the new year!

Red Tribe Robot

The plan is to get the Red Tribe sculpted and ready to cast and then get the Kickstarter going to see if anyone would be interested in picking up some robotic minions to game with and go from there. I've spent quite a lot of time and effort on the project between developing concept art and sculpting so hopefully it will all turn out in the end!

Heres a small preview of the work so far:

All the best!
