28mm Gondor Cavalry

I recently finished painting and added another 88 Gondor cavalry to my existing cavalry units. I even mixed some Dol Amroth shields in with the units to say they were in Gondor service. I use them in units of 8. So now I have 17 units total. Now a total of 136 cavalry models for Gondor. Way back I had painted extra Rohan cavalry and have about 136 Rohan cavalry models as well. I also way back added to my Dol Amroth cavalry and have about 80 models or 10 units of 8. These are kit bashed Gondor cavalry. I used the old school Harlequin LOTR figures from the 90’s. You can still find them In the Scotia Grendel fantasy figure line online today in their store.  The molds were at one time with Black Tree Designs under Legions of the Rhealm line back in the 90’s up into the lower 2000’s or something. The molds have been sold and settlled at Scotia Grendel and I have bought many there.  In my opinion they are the best LOTR figure line. But most every one uses the Games Workhop LOTR line. Which is good, but they are too small for my taste. I’m into scale creep upper 28’s.  I’m currently working on some more Gondor infantry about 8 trays of 25. I use the old GW trays for units. I have units of 25 minis in each tray. Eventually I will have 24 trays of 25 or 24 units of Gondor infantry. I play epic size games. As far as orcs I have probably close to 500 orcs and 300 goblins, a massive army. I’m looking for some shields to use to swap out with the gondor cavalry and paint more to make  2nd Age men units.

Any way cheers and stay safe in these dark times.

Zombie Apocalypse: March 2016 Waynesboro, GA

Apocalypse Survivors in Waynesboro, Georgia have divided the town into sectors for defense against the zombie herds that roam near and around the town. A rather large zombie herd has discovered that there is a "all you can eat" buffet in town and have decided to stop by and get some lunch and lay siege to parts of the town.

The Zombies stop by to say hello and demand dinner.


A bunch of zombies stick out there arms like long lost relatives wanting a hug.

New Wall in Game Room

My rather larger game room for epic sized games is in the garage. After 20 plus years I decided to add AC to the garage and I had to  put a wall up in front of the garage door to keep the hot and cold air out or depending on the weather. Even had insulation sprayed in above the garage as well as the entire attic. I also had to replace mr entire VAC and I mean replace everything, $17000 replace thing. So this lead to the upgrade in my game room. Now it’s just a room in my house. Pretty cool. A lot of work though and not cheap. I kept the walls white. Makes it a brighter room. 

Before pics. Brick wall hangings covering the garage door. 






And the work start to finish.
