Completed 2 Player Battlebox

     So I finished painting the last model of my Protectorate army from the 2 player battlebox back in November. Thought I'd post up some pics of the completed force atop some fresh new terrain.

Hosting Games at my Place

     After getting some games in at Clockwork, I decided to post up an invite on our google group to host some games at my new place. I got some interested responses and within a week I hosted a couple guys from our gaming group at my place. I went out that morning to grab some extra hardboard for a makeshift extra table so we could have two games going. Unfortunately, our fourth person couldn't make it so we were stuck with an odd number. We decided to go with small games of 15pts since Jimmy this is only going to be Jimmy's second or third game. I sat out the first game and let Jimmy and Carrington play a game. There game went a bit long but I helped Jim learn his army a bit. Second game, I played Carrington and that went much faster.
     Overall, it was a good night and I hope to do some more soon.

A Couple New Pieces of Terrain

     In preparation for hoping to host some games at my place soon, I made a couple pieces of new terrain using blue insulation foam and my hot wire foam cutter. Here's some WIP shots of the first piece.




Sanded the angular edges and further roughed up the rocky areas with sand paper. This pic is after basecoating everything in black and then heavily drybrushing gray over the rock areas.



Next I did a lighter dry brush with pure white

My First Games Back at Clockwork

     My local gaming group at Clockwork has been finishing up a slow grow journeyman league so it was hard trying to get in a non league game but I managed to get in a couple and the league will be over this week , so then it's  back to normal Monday night gaming at the shop. Here are a few pics of a game against Justin. I played my Protectorate vs his Trollbloods at 25pts.

Vassal

     After a few months away from painting or gaming I'm ready to get back into it. Should be getting in some games soon at Clockwork. Since my 2 player battlebox models are finished, here is my first expansion model, The Vassal of Menoth.
