Monday Rogues' Gallery

Australia's largest tabletop gaming convention, CanCon, was held last weekend. I caught up with a few bloggers and challengers:

• Comrade James (The Tall) of the Man Cave
• MartyH
• DaveX of Left Handed Panzerfaust
• AlanD of Dux Homunculorum
• Paul O'G of the Man Cave
• I also caught up with Slowp8nter JohnSh from War and Peace, and we had a yarn about maintaining focus and drive in our hobby.

I've got a few more pics and my loot over at my own blog.

It was a tad warm.

Today, we have a real variety show including ancients, horse and musket, WW2 in three theatres, and some dear-to-my-heart Blood Bowl!

From MartyH: My First Submission SDKFZ233

Hi all.

My first ever submission to the AHPC, and on the last day before the cutoff! Cutting it fine as always :)

Anyway this is a kit I have had in the cupboard for while, an all metal 1/56 SDKFZ233 (8RAD) open topped with a short 75mm. This vehicle will go great in support of my existing Panzer Grenadier Platoon with numerous halftracks. The kit did not come with crew, and I would like to rectify that in the future.

This thing quite literally weighs a tonne compared to the normal resin/plastic kits and was great fun painting!

Thanks Marty

Welcome aboard, Marty, a great first entry! I've always like the 8-rads ever since I had a Matchbox Puma. Is that airbrushed? The camo, shading, etc. is excellent. I'd love to see some crew to bring it to life.

Fresh meat Monday!

I have a special treat for you today- two new Challengers!

Please give a frosty winter welcome to MartyH, from Australia, and ShaunM, from Canada!

New recruits to the ranks of the Challengers!

This is their first time in the Challenge. For Shaun, this is his first time painting!

We also have a lot of WW2 themes today- the western desert, Eastern and Western Europe, and the Pacific!
