The Age of Strife

Apologies to Dazza for snagging some Squats, whilst I do love seeing his painted (which is more than you can say for mine) I am hoping to get some paint on my army at some point!

Anyhow managed to nab this cute little diorama, which was a little knocked up. The owner couldn't quite remember where everything had gone.

Anyhow I remember making things like that back as a kid, so it did hit a big nostalgia button for me. Whilst it will be a shame to strip it all down I think I probably will given it is just figures on a base and not more involved, plus where they all go is still a bit of a head scratcher. The painting is quite nice and very much of an era:

One Ork is missing an arm I see, but I expect I can bodge something. Anyhow felt if I am stripping them I should at least record them a little for posterity! I probably won't leap to the Biostrip just yet, plenty to be getting on with, having been naughty on ebay this last week or two.

Must get some varnish on the Ghouls and finish up the wretched Night Haunts. Although in true butterfly style when I found I actually had an hour last night I started work on my Carrion instead of doing any of the things I should!
 
Right I shall now be good and stop looking at ebay too much. One for Paul I think, picked up some (once) quite nicely painted Golfag's Ogres alas not the drummer and champion, but they were a good price and one can never have too many ogres lurking in the lead pile!

So quick pic for posterity, although I don't think I'll strip them off until I actually come to paint them, since they (like the Squats) have a bit of charm as they are.
