Just wanted to thank everyone for their input on the old west undead topic. I'm putting it to good use for tonights scenario! I'll try to post some pics this...
I have just posted the first of my painted Black Scorpion minis under the Zombie67's Minis album. Hope you like them. I hate doing eyes and a few will have to...
FWIW, and I know it's based on personal preference, but you cannot see the whites of a man's eyes at that distance in real life, so I never bother painting...
FWIW I always paint eyes...in fact it's one of the first things I look at when looking at someone else's miniatures. Bug eyes are easy to fix...just paint (or...
Thanks Jon. Funnily enough this is actually the first time I have attempted to paint eyes. With mini for games like Last Night On Earth I didn't bother. I may...
I've just created a new folder called "Mark H's Legends Pics". These pictures are from 3 different game convention games that I've run using the Legends of...
Great pics Mark! I have just got hold of the GASLIGHT rules and add ons and this will be my next project after my Old West town. Where did you get the Kong...
Funny story - I looked for figured for about 6 months, and finally found an Ebay auction for a pair of kinda campy king kong action figures (VERY retro, looked...
Great pictures and great terrain! The wonderful thing about GW's LOTR rules is that they are adaptable to many situations: LOTOW, LOTHS, etc., so it makes...
Good morning everyone from sunny Lancing, south coast UK,bug eyes ,best way to avoid this for me is not to paint the eyes at all.Because I undercoat in black I...
... When a man on horseback moves and wants to shoot, is his move penalty affected? Yes it is. Next: Can the special rules for the tomahawks used by the Native...
Yes, that is part of Bob Murch's excellent "Cringing Captives" set, which I have. In fact I used that very figure in my Quest for the Temple of the Monkey God...
... Very nice looking figures, Zombie67. You do good work. ;-) ... There are a couple of options you could try there. One, just don't do the eyes. Just...
Thank Mike for the kind words and for the tips. As I was in Exeter yesterday I popped by Clifton Road Games, who stock BS minis and I could resist picking up...
http://www.warhammer-historical.com/ Also, there are some special deals on at the moment for the supplement bundles. I have just ordered the Old West ones....
Nearly done... hopefully I'll finish final touches tonight. I've added the awning. Remember the concept is to create a building that looks approximately like a...
Having a bit of a clearout - all from Foundry, all mint: - 8 mounted cowboys - 4 spare horses - 3 mules - 1 great big Grizzly! All yours for £20 incl UK P&P -...
If you are going to use old west slang terms, don't use gook: "Gook is a derogatory term for Asians, used especially for enemy soldiers.[1] Its use as an...
... Ahem! Gentlemen, this is steering towards slightly dangerous territory! Besides any Graffiti wouldn't stay on there long as the diligent and hard working...
Agreed, which is why I didn't make specific suggestions. It would be accurate though...the history of California is full of stories of acts of racial...
In all honesty, I don't see how it is getting dangerous. These words are real in society and are not damaging in themselves. Its the worthless people who use...
The language in Deadwood is also incorrect. At that times, words such as "shit" was considered taboo. To make it just as dirty in today's time, the producers...
... So you wouldn't consider discussing suitable racial slurs might be considered slightly over the line for a polite group talking about gaming? ... There's...
Yeah, some of the swear words were modernized a little for impact. I'm not sure that "taboo" words didn't get bandied about quite a bit though...it was a...
Well I am sorry if I offended you. Heaven forbid that someone reference actual history in a historical game. My hats off to Steve for trying to do it right....
I'm pretty sure he was referring to Mark Latham, since this is his group. I'm Mark Havener. In the context, I don't have an issue with it, though it's not...
... Not me personally, just doing my job. ... Heaven forbid! :-) I personally prefer to read into a subject I game, warts an' all. ... Which is why I referred...
Yeah, that's the sort of phrase I might use if I were to put graffiti on a Chinese old west building - gets the point across without using a term that might...
