Welcome to Fistful of Lead


It's been an interesting period in the Facebook Oldhammer community, but things seem to be finding their feet again. Two new groups have been created, both with a focus on the old stuff we all know and love, and the original group and trade group have been left to move in a new, organic direction, free of meddling admins. 


So, with all this new time on my hands in the two weeks since Lead of Winter, , I have managed to paint a 400 point Empire Army, a little troupe of halflings, a citadel graveyard and a few villains for my first narrative scenario, The Legend of Sheepy Hollow...... 


I'll leave some photos of the miniatures here, which are mostly Foundry Ex-Citadel, and will follow up this first, brief post, with a battle report later tonight :)




 Citadel Graveyard with Goblin Necromancer 
(most of these are from the DS3 citadel graveyard, the goblin is  citadel chaos goblin)

Ichabod Crane and his flock of sheep.

The heroes of the story....

  1. Welcome to the wonderful world of blogging! I am very pleased to see all of those models you were oggling at the Foundry crisply painted and ready for the battlefield. I think you need to work on your formatting a bit though! (:

    1. And you need to work on the "constructive" part of constructive criticism.

  2. I'll bid you another welcome to Blogdom!

    Lovely looking minis mate - that was quick work.

    Great first post, but have a fiddle round with the text settings - the white background on them is a little off-putting!

    1. A "Follow via email" option is very handy for the non-Blogger users too.
