Next Sunday, May 31st, is Little Wars Melbourne, held in picturesque Moorabin Town Hall, home of the gently colour-shifting clock and the mighty car-park mural of might and red-ness.
And at said picturesque Moorabin Town Hall, I shall be running A Song of Oaks and Axes, a participation campaign run using Andrea Sfiligoi's 'A Song of Blades and Heroes' skirmish rules. This is most of the reason the blog has stood idle for so long - I've been hammering away at the terrain and minis required for this noble endeavour. Also, I've been writing up the process for The Campaigner, so it felt a bit like cheating to also include the stuff here. However, once the articles have been published and the event is over, I will revisit the making of elf houses, and very probably make some more Goblin stuff as well. In the mean time, here are some inspirational photographs to inspire you:
 |
| The foul goblins of the Flatulent Mountain tribe pour over the river, intent on mischief and lumberjackery! |
 |
| Here we see the dreaded Goblin missile units, also that I have forgotten to paint the ends of the river sections... curse. |
 |
| Stalwart Elf warriors defend the sacred pool from Bzak Butt-Scratcher and his scabrous crew. |
 |
| And here we see my might giant, made from a $2 shop action figure. I have another two similar figures, and will be doing an MFH on the process at some point. |
 |
| Just a vintage citadel ogre... sharped eyed readers with feet to match will notice he has a modern Ogre club - I bought him on eBay and the seller had removed his classic weapon to use him in Blood Bowl. |
Little Wars is the end product of herculean efforts by mighty mortals. You can go and read about their struggles
