What have I been up to so far.

Hello blog-followers.
First I like to thank all people that kept following my blog in my absence.
With the return to my blog the first thing I did was going through my list of blogs that I am following and remove all blogs that no longer exist and those which the last post was more then 2 years ago. I also removed some blogs with subjects I don't have any interest in. Later this month I hope to change more things about the look of my blog.
I played a few games of Battlegroup Fall of the Reich. I like the Battlegroup rule-set more and more while I start to loose interest in Flames of War. Gladly I can use most of the Battlefront miniatures I have with the Battlegroup rules.
Recently my eyes also fell on SAGA. Not that I have a warband or have the rulebook yet. I borrowed the rulebook from a friend to read what kind a game it is. And I first want to see if their are enough players. Don't want to start an other game which will end up in a box collecting dust.

Painting.
I didn't do any real painting, what I did so far is:
-Repainted all base-edges of the painted Confrontation miniatures.


Dirz


Daikinee

Later on I will replace the old pictures with new ones in the different post on this blog. Also I will place new posts with pictures of painted Confrontation miniatures witch I never posted on this blog.

-Undercoated all Confrotation miniatures which never have seen any paint and which were stored in boxes for 7 or 8 years.

But now I want to start paint them. Not for gaming, the game is already long dead, but just because these are great looking miniatures and I am getting a little bored painting army green for more then 7 years.

-Undercoated a platoon of EW Canadian infantry for my ongoing Infantry Tank Company from the MW Dieppe PDF project. Plus stretcher bearers and medic that can be used with Battlegroup.

Thanks for reading.

New 'Old Posts' added.

Well it ain't exactly new posts but posts that I have imported from my other blog (Metal, Plastic and Paint!). After some thinking I have decided that I will delete the other blog (around the new year). This for the simple reason that I hardly post on that blog anymore. Because I don't want the posts on that blog get lost I imported them in this blog. These imported posts contain pictures of painted Confrontation models (Dirz and Daikinee) and painted old Games Workshop Dark Eldar models.
This blog (AV's Corner) is and always will be focused on Flames of War but now also sometimes, but not to many, will have a post not FoW or WWII related.
In the future I will slowly replace the pictures of the imported posts with new and better pictures. The pictures that are now placed on these posts are too horrible to look at.
The imported post are incorporated into this blog on the same date they were placed on the other blog. This means you won't find them as a new blog post. Later on I will place a link in the header which will contain all links to the appropriate posts.

Thank you for reading.

Confrontation Miniatures: Maneös, Warrior Beetle.

This is the last painted Daïkinee model I have. All other Daikinee models are still bare metal.
I don't like this one. It didn't came out the way i wanted it to be (I don't say I am a good painter). I  specially dislike the eyes.

Thanks for looking.

Confrontation Miniatures: Daïkinee Sylphs.

These are also models for Confrontation. And as the name already suggest these are Daïkinee too.

Thanks for looking.

Confrontation Miniatures: Urul Tribal Chief.

This is also a Confrontation model.

Thanks for looking.

Confrontation Miniatures: Meari the Protector.

An other Daikinee model for Confrontation.

Thanks for looking.

Confrontation miniatures: Mandigorn Warrior.

This is model from the Confrontation skirmish game. A game that, sadly, no longer exist.

Thanks for looking.
