Painted it Black

More Oldhammer Lord of the Rings Goodies


So, no surprise it didn't take long to finish off the Black Rider when I finally managed to squeeze a painting session over the weekend. And I also got time to finish my Oldhammer Thorin for the start of my alternative Company of Thorin Oakenshield. 

Thorin & Balin tackle goblins of the Misty Mountains

I decided that I wanted to try and stretch my freehand skills a bit by putting the names of each of the dwarves in runes on the bases.  So, after a quick internet search I was able draw up a list of names. 

These feel like very different minis! And how tall does the film version look compared to a classic 28 mm dwarf. 


And I came across a new Badger beer over the weekend - Iron Hart* pale ale (very enjoyable) and had to double check that they were also still doing my favourite - Hopping Hare pale ale. Fortunately still seems readily available (Phew!).

*I wonder if there is a Burrows & Badgers - Iron Hart? 

Enjoy the rest of the weekend.
