It's All Greek to Me! (Part 4 - Some New Additions)

 It's a sobering thought to conclude that a full year has passed since the last time I published a post here. 

During that time this blog has had it's 13th birthday, I too leveled up and am now 48. I've played in two local Bolt Action tournaments (And came second place in both no less) and played two other games of Bolt Action with my friends Densmol and Stew, respectively. 

A little hobby has left the "Pile'O'Opportunity", with my previously posted WW2 Greeks now 2/3rds toward being fully painted (See below) and only have 44 infantry left to complete this project as it stands right now, and some terrain items constructed, though yet to receive paint. The Bolt Action rules have had a new 3rd
edition and I'm eager to have a new army painted and ready to try them out.

Real life itself has had some massive changes this year and my personal responsibilities have multiplied a hundred fold, but otherwise I'm happy, relatively healthy and only miss my freetime (Hobby time) a little. 

Forgive my not commenting on your respective blogs - I promise I have been dropping by from time to time when I find the odd moment to see what all have been up to. I'll try to work on that, though make no promises! 

So perhaps I'll have another post up before the end of the year should I manage to find time to paint or *shock horror* actually play and show pictural evidence of.

Some Great Escape Games Evzones - the first of 4 infantry squads to be painted next.

A FatherandSonGaming German guard hut. I lost patience painting these annoying chevrons really quick so I'll not show the other sides to this small terrain piece. The cigarette smoking guard is a kind donation by Densmol.
