Star Wars Monopoly

Back in October, I acquired a copy of Star Wars Monopoly at Goodwill. It was missing Han Solo, so I turned to eBay to find the missing piece.

While looking for Han, I discovered there were three versions of a classic Star Wars Monopoly with some variation in the selection of pawns. I was able to pick up a Han in a set from a different version as well as a few other characters. The game comes with 8 pawns, and I have assembled 15 uniqe characters.

We played a game the other day and they were easily knocked over. So I based them on 20 mm MDF bases from GF9.

I would like to paint them up similar to how I painted my Clue pawns. The base edge with be color coded to Empire or Rebel as there is a mechanic in the game that plays off which faction you are playing.

May the Fourth be with You!!!

Happy May Fourth!! In honor of one of my favorite movies, and in celebration of the day, I am sharing some chibi-style artwork I created a number of years ago.

Something has changed for me recently, I don't know what it is yet, but I have taken a new approach with this blog. Over the last two plus weeks, I have been posting every three days. This pace has been easy to keep--Because I already have about 30 posts written or in progress!! I am simply scheduling out about a week at a time to allow for additions or changes.

The number three has always been an important number through out my life, least of which I am a third (named after my father and great grandfather). When I came up with this idea a few weeks ago, it just clicked and I immediately had the drive to do it. It certainly doesn't hurt that I also have been getting content from friends!! I don't mind if an important date or topic hits an off post day, I just want to post at least every three days.

That's about it for now and I just want to close with... Fun may have you today!!
