Arcs de triomphe

I was on vacation in Croatia for 2 weeks. It was really awesome: the people are very friendly and we had fantastic weather in a beautiful country.

I was walking down a medieval street in the beautiful town of Pula when my eyes beheld the KEWLEST thing: Great pieces of scenery at low cost. I had to buy them (they were at 2,90€ a piece, how cool is THAT?!).

Here are some pics ;-)

Mutter, der Mann mit dem Koks ist da.

That's a little project I started recently under the watchful eye of Nicholas :)

Here are the first pics of a very rough outline of the new building. The idea was to show a structure that took an almost direct hit by a meteor. I'll be gone for 2 weeks, but after I get back I'll try to keep you up to date about my progress :)

Take care!
Tom

Work in progress...

Hi guys!

Tom's Boring Mordheim Blog will experience a major add-on soon!

I have been recieving a lot of mail concerning various tabletop-related topics recently, so I have decided to implement a new function to the blog.

I am working on a full fledged forum function to create an exchange platform for all of us! I am hoping for lots of interesting discussions with you guys and I am eager to make this thing work.

Let me know what you think about the idea!
Sincerely,
Tom

Eine Raubschnecke in Germany


Servus!

Ein kleiner Gruß aus dem wunderschönen Nordrhein-Westfalen, dem Geburtsland meiner treuen Raubschnecke Pat ("que je salue très amicalement au passage")!

Anbei ein Paar Photos aus dem Muss-Pilgerort: Dem Games Workshop Laden in Düsseldorf - der wohl bekannteste im Deutschen Sprachraum. Das Geschäft ist wirklich beeindruckend, nicht zuletzt wegen seiner großen Spielhalle wo ein wunderschöner Spieltisch neben dem nächsten steht. Aber mir liegt besonders an einer bestimmte Sache: Dem grossen Lustria Diorama, welches eine riesige Stadt der Echsenmenschen darstellt, die von tausenden und abertausenden Skaven gestürmt wird.

Danke, wir ham nur g'schaut.

Der GW Laden "Drakenburg" in Düsseldorf. Leider haben die Verkäufer auch hier, genau wie im GW Wien, die unangenehme Angewohnheit sich auf jeden Neuankömmling zu stürzen mit dem penetranten Wortlaut "Halloooo, kann ich dir helfen?" ohne das letzterer auch nur den Hauch einer Chance hat sich erst einmal im Geschäft zu orientieren... naja, "et is wie et is".


Das Lustria Diorama, gebaut von den Jungs aus England für irgend einen Games Day. In der Mitte sieht man einen Riesigen "Bohrer", das Herzstück, der durch die Bodenplatten der Stadt bricht und seinen Inhalt - Myriaden von Skaven - über die überraschten Verteidiger ergießt.


Links, zwoooo, dreiiii, vier! Finger sind LANG meine Herr'n!

Das österreichische Bundesheer (brilliant verkleidet als Hochelfen, zwecks Tarnung und Täuschung) eilt den armen Echsenmenschen zur Hilfe.

Bonne nuit, les petits!

There's a new youngblood in town!

During the Mordheim Mayhem 2007, one of the battles went really bad for the Reiklanders and they lost two men: one archer and one swordsman. Moreover, the next battle was imminent and there were only a few gold crowns left in the treasury... so Captain Tortiou chose to replace his fallen warriors with a new Youngblood (only 15 gc!). It was as simple as that.
However, the rest of the warband was not really pleased by the captain's choice. In fact, the Reiklanders were really REALLY pissed off when they saw that the new Youngblood was ...
... a girl!

Allow me to introduce Pimprenelle, the new Reiklander recruit. Pimprenelle is tenderness incarnate. She is gentle, cute, caring and full of love, especially with her hammer and sword.
Pimprenelle was painted by Tom (hair and fur coat) and by me (everything else). The colors are always the same: blue and beige, just like her teammates. I especially like the "space wolf grey" used for the fur in her back!
Pimprenelle with Captain Tortiou and Nicolas, the other youngblood. You can see the other Reiks in the background.

Nicolas and Pimprenelle. Same shield, same hammer, time to rock baby!

Nicolas et Pimprenelle (pour ceux qui pigent la référence)

Bonne nuit les petits!
:)
