Fallen from the wagon already!

Well less than a month into the New Year and I’ve gone and spent some money on figures!

Having had problems even getting a kill with the Skaven / Rat men in SoBH I thought I would branch out and try a couple of other races and a change from 28mm figures by going paper with Kobolds and Elves from OneMonk Miniatures and my home printer.

Talk about poor timing but if it could go wrong it did:

  • OneMonk is in the middle of changing layouts and pulled all but a sample from RPG Now etc..  Through TMP though I managed to find the new site that Jim is setting up but due to timing I could not download them.
  • The printer decided to drop off the network so even if I could download them I was snookered.

Through the power of E-mail and PayPal Jim kindly sold me the two sets and by spending a fair chunk of my day off I sorted the printer out.

Feeling full of myself I also called in to the local GW store and purchased a small pack of Orcs and Skeletons (old style) giving me 9 figures to paint by Sunday.  Not bad a target except I am at work again tomorrow and taking my son for his second Britain’s Got Talent round in Manchester.

If I can stay awake tonight and tomorrow I’ll post the pictures as the skeletons are just about done and Orcs started.

Now just to work out a combined force – no way am I ditching my Skaven…
