Merry Christmas everybody! Frohe Weihnachten zusammen!
I was really looking forward to post first pictures of what i was doing earlier, but there has been an evil thief that stole my time. This thief is called steam and is having a Winter Sale, with incredible bargains and deals. And due to the extreme amount of savings, i felt for some of them.
My vacation has now officially started, its thursday morning and there is a long list of to-dos for three and a half weeks of time.
What is the starting situation?
Well, first of all, i got some support with another Boba Fett, who's sitting on my monitor. He complements the star wars theme with the two lego flyers, the x-wing miniatures game and the Boba Fett dice holder (you remember?).
After a whole week in the no-hobby-zone of Basel (Nothing going on, and i mean nothing) I was really looking forward to the Painting and Gaming day at my FLGS CTU in Koblenz.
We have a strong warmachine gaming scene in Koblenz and so it was no wonder, that the German National Championship was one by one of us (congrats Robin!). But it wasn't all about gaming, there was painting as well, as the next Field of Glory Army from the albanian national Coach in the third picture shows.
I finally made it and spent some time painting. The miniatures for my warmachine khador project and the markers were primed and i could start putting some paint on those.
Last saturday the TinSoldiers of Antwerp invited to Crisis. And after the very positive impression from last year, it was a no-brainer that we would go to the show.
And with this picture of the event-legends from Salute, the South London Warlords, we head over to the second part of the coverage.
Beside the traders a lot of participation tables are the reason for the visitors to come to Crisis, so let's talk a look on a couple of them.
There was a lot to see for fantasy and pulp as well at Crisis, thanks to - among others - GCT Studio with Bushido and a french-polish joint booth.
After a successful show at Spiel, the next harbour for Freebooter was Antwerp.
And this away mission was succesful as well. The booth was heavily crowded from the first 15 minutes until the very last hours of the show. I was lucky enough to even get a line of sight for a picture of Werner.
A couple of familiar faces, that we've seen at Spiel were at Crisis as well. Among them Warlord Games, Conquest Games and Mantic Games.
At Warlord Games was as on the past shows, quite a lot going on, as the visitors wanted to get their hands on the army bundles and new plastic kits.
The weekend is more or less over and i can look back on some busy days.
A show without some hurting shoulders and my packed messenger bag wouldn't be a real show!
Let me say a big thank you and chapeau! to the great work the Tinsoldiers of Antwerp have done organizing the Crisis 2012. Amazing event!
