    Played a 1K 8th Edition battle with my wife! First game where she called the shots for her troops! Great fun.

    See mini-battle report here.

    Decided to experiment with display bases for some Blood bowl teams recently finished.
    First up an elf team. Kept it simple. ( Most figures by Black Scorpion although a very old GW elf kicker and an elf trainer from Shadowforge)

    Second I then went a bit more over the top for the new Necromantic team.
    As I wanted to keep the pumpkin theme going but not the GW colour scheme I made a few changes. Dark green and orange like the pumpkins.

    Lastly I did my BS wide view.jpg Black Sabborc.jpg BS weapons.jpg BS lineman.jpg BS Troll.jpg orc team that I have had painted up for a while. Really over the top but I like the results.
    Team "Black Sabborc"

    Hey, has anyone got any ideas for REALLY soft foam?

    I'm making magnetic storage trays out of Really Useful Boxes and magnetic strips, but I want to line the lids with really soft foam that gently presses down on the models when closed.

    Thanks.

    (I'm concurrently back on my magnetizing beat and making metal movement trays)

    While I'm waiting for my Rot Toads to arrive and the rest of the materials for my magnetic storages, I'm continuing to magnetize my armies. Did a bunch of them last night.

    I transferred my proxy Beasts of Nurgle onto proper bases on my blog. (Would appreciate any advice on the basing)

    Last night, took my wife through to clarify each of the Magic Weapons and Magic Armours from the 8th Edition BRB.

    Ah, sunny Pearl Harbor! What better place to hunker down below decks and build minis?

    Again, mostly infantry models - a tau fireblade, a primaris apothecary, three Empire captains on foot (courtesy of left over bodies from the tedious Empire Greatswords kit I mostly built during quarantine), and a baby griffon (a one-part base accessory from the Empire General kit) - but I also polished off the High Elf mage kit I previously touched for a WFRP character by building a mounted mage, and might continue building up the mounted Empire Captain with lance and banner.

    This pretty much cleared up all the unbuilt plastic kits I stripped down to sprues and bases in baggies for the deployment (I still have a Destroyer Squad to build, but they come in ziplock bags anyway).

    I'm planning on running a DnD game for my niece and nephew today, the one that was rescheduled a couple weeks ago.

    I've built some models with "meh" rules, but pretty cool. Now the challenge is to find a way to use them at their full potential (I already have a couple of ideas)
