Ainsty Castings
This is actually an article, that i wanted to write for a long time. I bought some Ainsty Castings at Antwerps Crisis one or two years ago, and wanted to share my impressions with you.
Terrain is an important part of gaming and as such i am looking for affordable / reasonably priced pieces, that can be used for several settings. I found good prices at Ainsty Castings (was even able to get a bit of a bargain at the show) and got myself a small cemetery and a couple of boxes.
Holiday business
After this "marathon" of posts during December, i use the holidays to spend some time regenerating and relaxing.
Since mid-december i enjoy a couple of tv shows on Netflix while tinkering, i can only recommend Ray Donovan and The Americans. What else is on between christmas and new year? I am working on some of the articles i announced in the christmas post, taking care of terrain and the following.
The first is a Reaper Master Series 54mm miniature of an US Army serviceman. Solid cast, details are good, could be better but it is okay.
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year! Frohes Neues! Feliz Año Nuevo!
It is the first of January, and welcome to 2015. I have a few good resolutions for this year, in first line more painting and gaming. Starting next weekend at the HdR Szenario near Bad Kreuznach.
So what's next at the 'bunker? Well, i bought some Matchbox vehicles. I saw them in different army projects, among others in the Bolt Action Facebook Group and Stoessi Bolt Action Army. I was irritated, because i would have thought the scale would be off, but it works great, as you can see with the Warlord Games Jeeps and a Perry Kübelwagen. What can i say? I was happy and i bought a set of 6 jeeps for just 15 euros. I'll buy some Kübelwagen next.
Early Christmas
Last week was kinda early Christmas wargaming-wise. First my order at Warchimera, a small polish manufacturer, finally arrived. The Defense Line is modular and what you see below is roughly 60 Euros incl. shipping.
Tank month
It took a few weeks but my order at Ainsty Castings arrived. I bought a couple of items, some monuments that will be perfect for almost every setting. A raft, that will a nice addendum for the German Marines i painted earlier, and for some Spec-Op Missions (Commandos etc.). The riverboat was a bargain, and is a nice piece of terrain and will be used for boarding and river settings. And the last part ... a tardis. Eventhough i am not a Dr. Who Fan (i think its just weird), but hey a tardis, ... why not?
