Busy few days …. Painting, games and a bit of a walk

So I have had a busy couple of days. First up I looked at the cyclops again and just did think the painting just wasn’t good enough - so I did an old school repaint on the flesh tones. 

I think they came out better than the speed paints - however I still plan to use speed paints for the celts. 

On Friday Snake-eyes and Steedo came over and played a couple of games of Valhalla - with the Valkyries expansion.

An enjoyable evening was had by all - the expansion didn’t change the game that much. The games were pretty close, with Steedo winning the first game 26, Snake-eyes 23 and myself on 20. The second game was closer with Steedo and Snake-eyes tied on 23 points, the tiebreaker was who had the most opponents shields … which we concluded was Steedo (although Snake-eyes had the most opponents shield, in that he had a lot of mine, but Steedo had the most shields and head to head had beaten Snake-eyes). I had planned to play Risk Europe, but I think that it plays better with 4.

Then Saturday morning was a trip out to Dartmoor in Storm Bert!

I hadn’t thought it was a good idea to go out - it was rather wet and windy and we called the walk before the really poor weather set in and it stopped being funny as we were being blown about.

With the extra time I had - I finished off the Space Marine Terminator Captain - pretty happy with it (apart from the rear cloak thing, which is ok).

I still need to put some transfers on the shields by the pauldrons and stick him on a base.

So quite a lot covered in the last couple of days.
