Mad Lemmey's Painting Blog

  "Welcome all to the Buzzard Dome!" "This should be a fine match up Jim, The Splattermore Ravens, a realtively new team under Mad Lemmey, taking on the Veteran Shambling Undead Team coached by the amazing Mocaivius." "These two coaches have been friends and rivals for decades, and even got to a local league final once."   "Be interesting to see where this friendly game goes Jim." "If Blood Bowl can ever be friendly Bob!" Chris and I dug out our Blood Bowl teams. I chose my Splattermore Ravens Vampire team. Chris brought along his trusty 3rd edition Undead (now know as a shambling undead team in 'Season 3' of the present rules). My team 2 thrower vamps, 1 blitzer vamp, one runner vamp, 8 thralls (cheap humans).  Chris had 2 mummies, 2 ghouls, 2 wrights, 2 zombies and a pile of skellies. Good old fashioned croemwd violence shortens the half by a turn!  Chris elected to kick. I recieved and immediately got Lestat the thrower unde...

I have not played 40k since the mid 00's, but a couple of months ago I really enjoyed a game of Combat Patrol (40k light with fixed forces).

Which has been tempting me for a while and always fascinated me as a design concept. Sisters of Battle or Adeptus Soritas. Nuns with guns.

So, over the next (insert indeterminate) period of time, I will be building, painting and posting about the Adeptus Soritas Combat Patrol. Starting unit - Th'Arcoflagelents. Sorry, arcoflagelents, but from the North - " Lots of Planets have a North! " Research 6/10, Build 2/10, Paint 6/10,  Fun 7/10 Various heratics, criminals and others who are subje...

Hunting The Red Baron on the Dawn Patrol. Bit bigger than 25mm scale, but he will provide top cover for my Kindred WWI stuff. Yes, you have seen the flight stand before on my epic stuff. He's going so fast, the camera can't focus! "Curse you Red Baron!"   Two more Highlanders from the 80s, thanks to Brian up the road. Armed with two bottles or a sword, who is harder? More plaid Well hard! Top view   A chaos warrior It was free, and I've given it to a mate who runs a chaos armym=, hence th elack of basing as he will do it to his own style. Big chopp...
