I Had a Big Painting Weekend

[bigjackmac]

All,

So, for all you kind souls out there that actually read, enjoy, and respond to my batreps, I greatly appreciate it, and I apologize.  I apologize because I didn't get any gaming in this past weekend.  But don't let that make you think I didn't get anything wargaming accomplished; quite the contrary, actually!  Like many of you, I presume, I have roundabout 8 million different wargaming projects lying around, in various stages of completion, with more pouring in from the mailbox on a regular basis.  This past weekend I was upstairs in the War Room, cleaning up the remnants from my "Tears of the Sun" campaign (over on the Cuba Libre blog) and pondering my next move, when... Well, there's no other way to put it, I was simply overcome with aggravation and frustration at all the crap scattered about.  My initial intent was simply to work on a couple things, then get some games in on Sunday, but once I got some momentum going, I couldn't quit, and so I worked through two whole days of knocking stuff out.


And here's what I (mostly) got done!  Little monkey hands were quite busy playing with Daddy's stuff, but not so much with helping to assemble and paint   To see about a hundred more photos, please check the blog at:

Man I got a lot done, but still so much more to do.  But don't worry, I'll be playing some games this coming weekend and posting the batreps ASAP, just not sure where I'm headed.  I'm ready to start my Aussies in North Africa, I'm ready to start Blood & Guts in Sicily (to include some armor vs armor games using Treadheads, from my buddy Steve/Wolfhag), I need to finish KG Klink in Fall of France, I want to get back to Cuba Libre in Cronistria for a faux-Market Garden concept I've been thinking on, back to South Leon for my 10mm FFL troops above, back to South Leon for some more 15mm SOF stuff, aaaaaaaaahhhh!!!

V/R,
Jack

Had a chance to have a better look
You really have been busy

As an alternative to grass have you considered some rocks?

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Or the odd tuft?

Or the odd tuft?

You get quite a few of them on this forum!

Hey, thanks everyone, I really appreciate the kind words, just need to play some games now.

Paul, those rocks look pretty damn good, and Lemmey, I've had some success with tufts, but in the overall scheme of things, I figured these guys needed some color, so I went in with the bright grass.

V/R,
