Highlights of 6-21 Paint-&-Play

In spite of the Fathers' Day holiday, we had two tables filled with P&Pers. Many returning friends and a newcomer or two joined in the fun. I actually think we may have frightened the historical-game guys down at the other end of the room :D

Here are some highlights of the painting.

Not surprisingly, we had at least one Dad participating. With so many painters, there was lots of work for my camera. Check out some of these awesome minis.

And afterward..we played. Luckily for the guys, they had enough minis from past P&P Sundays to help out in the fight against the purple wyvern. Also it was lucky that one of the "good guys"had the ability to paralyze the monster. Sometimes in the face of adversity, one must overlook little differences such as being undead and therefore evil.

Here they are...in the final assault before the incredible PWN!

Remember, the Paint-a-Dwarf contest ends on July 26th. Also I have finally gotten my schedule made far enough ahead so I can update the calendar with July's events. Hopefully I will have August's events listed MUCH sooner than the end of July.

Check back here regularly for some exciting news about the upcoming release of Warlord 2nd Edition, a fun miniature skirmish game from Reaper Minis. Also I hope to have some exciting news from the folks who bring you Swords & Wizardry.

Long overdue updates and photos

My apologies for being so long overdue with my posting here. This past month has been a bit of a whirlwind due to the unexpected passing of Steve's father back in mid-May. We both have been busy taking care of family business, not to mention our regular jobs, and I've not had many chances to update any of my blogs.

BUT I still have a camera full of pics from the past few events, all sorts of plans for the upcoming summer months, and a surprise or two up my sleeves.

Here's some of the stuff painted back on the last day of May.



And that was also the day we judged the winner for the Paint-a-Orc contest.

Congratulations to Trevor, who is the second biggest orc fan at P&P. Here's his entry standing on the stoop of the HirstArts tower which he won. The caption ought to say "You kids get off my lawn!"
