Painting WizKids monsters: anis hag, ankheg, yuan ti abomination

 A trio of larger models, all with Contrast-based paintjobs.

Painting commission blue wizards

First commission work of the year, started before my accident. Photos are thus a bit jumbled. The minis are: this flameweaver, this old man, this young mage and unknown bearded guy.

Converting and painting Free Folk heroes

I already like the minis so no major conversions. Also slapchop isn't good enough for them.

Painting trolls

I already got two of these models;  now I'm just making sure I never need any trolls again. The 4 armed version is a conversion by someone else; too bad it wasn't ready for its appearance in Dungeon of the Mad Mage.

16th Battle of Cluswar: A Song Of Ice & Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game tournament

For my first wargaming outing since the happening, I dove straight into a small local tournament. I got transported to and from, sat most of the time with my legs propped up... it wasn't completely fine, but it was great nonetheless.

Game 1 vs Targaryens. I had little hope with giants against dragons, but I managed to eke out a minor victory.

Game 2 vs Lannisters. I had little hope against my experienced opponent playing his favorite army, but I managed to eke out a victory.

Game 3 vs Starks. I was riding the high of my previous win, but, you might be seeing a pattern here, I had little hope against double Tully cavalry deployed in my face. Once again, I managed to eke out a victory.

Accidental tournament winner...?!

Game 3: Free Folk vs Starks

Game 3 of Banners and Butchery against double Tully cavalry. My opponent was obviously going to pick this one with the close deployment and needing attack actions on objectives. I picked the giants, knowing that double cavalry would just mow down my zoo. I haven't played against the Starks in a while, so a bit of trepidation. Beware the Assault Orders.

Obviously the Starks deployed on the line, with one unit of cavalry in Outflank. I placed the Giant Spear Thrower on my objective, but already I felt it went too far ahead. I protected the other objective with spikes. One giant on the far left to score some cheeky points.

Game 2: Free Folk vs Lannisters

Game 2 against my eternal opponent and his High Sparrow led infantry blocks. In A Game of Thrones, the choice of Varamyr's zoo in support of Mag's giants was obvious.
