Halfling rogue and mage for Roleplaying at my local club.

Recently, we started a roleplaying campaign at Leighton Buzzard Wargames Club, and out of my four zero level characters (a dwarf, a wizards apprentice, an ostler and a halfling), I got the halfling and the apprentice through the first adventure in Dungeon Crawl Classics, so I get to use them next and I painted the halfling first.

My mage character, dug long and hard to find this one in the pile, and then I found this in the selection Brian gifted me.

Looking at her, I would hazard she is an 1980s cast of of a Prince August female mage (hence the bubble in one arm). She's come up rather well.


Not sure how many adventures she will survive, but she'll look good doing it.


Zap!


I should have filled that hole, but actually its okay.

'It' became 'her' when I looked at the delightful Oathsworn 'Sensible Shoes' range and found a cool halfling rogue, not too chubby, looks like she means buisiness.
What to name here? 'Skinny' Hairfoot was my GURPs halfling cleric character back in 1990-1, so this is his granddaughter, taking the family name (and metabolic rate), 1st level wanderer, 'Skinny' Hairfoot.


Why do halflings have torches when they have infravision? Maybe she's holding it for someone? Maybe it's because Michael Lovejoy knows how to do a really cool sculpt! 


She's only carrying four daggers, will it be enough?


Tried OSL again, even has a shadow, so a successfull effort.


To scale with an orc chief, unleash the 'murder hobo'!

The random miniatures in my lead pile thread

Hi all, As the months go on, I am finding more random stuff that does not fit into any catagory is creeping it's way up to the surface of my lead mountain.

Soldiers of Napoleon - French Imperial Guard vs Austrians - bad day to be a hussar.

Whilst down in Wiltshire for the Devizes comp, Nigel very kindly gifted me his 10mm Imperial Guard division from FOGN (Field of Glory Napoleonics), and although I had rebased the cavalry and generals (including painting some), the guard themselves were not finished. I scrabbled together a 900 Soldiers of Napoleon list (which turns out to be illegal, read the rules Will), and fielded it Vs Mark's undefeated Austrians. My army, including reserves, was twelve units and Mark could basically do that in two brigades! My list : Two brigades of two five Old Guard infantry, with two twelve pounders and full cassions. Guards Heavy cavalry brigade. Five Grenadiers a Chevel. Five Guards Dragoons. Three batteries of 8lber guns. Guards light cavalry brigade. Four Guards lancers, four Guards Chasseurs a Chevel. Three batteries of three 8lber guns. Mark had: An Avent Guard brigade with hussars, artillery, jagers and two infantry units, two dragoons with horse artillery as his cavalry brigade,An in...
