This afternoon, for the Sheffield Irregulars' monthly competition themed 'Duel', I painted [i]The World's Smallest Wargame[/i], which was the free entry miniature for the Newark Irregulars' Partizan 2007 show.

It is two 6mm wargamers playing an even smaller wargame! These armies on the tabletop have got to be the smallest armies I've ever painted!!

I don't know if I've mentioned before my old standing love of BattleTech. For about fifteen years I've been wanting to paint up a light, recon lance of Inner Sphere Mechs - and a few weeks ago I saw the notice on the WaMP forum about a painting competition for Iron Wind Metals - who are the current manufacturer of miniatures for the BattleTech game! :) So I thought I had to take part! And I just wanted to show of the result, as I'm pretty pleased with it :)

Death for the Death God - no, wait, that doesn't work, does it? Anyway ...

I've been a bit quiet this summer, as it ihas all been rather busy IRL - but that doesn't mean I haven't been painting. Just not photographing!

Hasslefree call him Cobra - I choose to call him Snake ;)

This is my entry to the Sheffield Irregulars monthly competition. The challenge this month was weathering, so I pulled a random blister out of the lead mountain - in this case a Shard something-or-other (I forget what) from the Vor game, now long defunct.
