Atomic Sunset Poster #3
00 Just finished mocking-up this newspaper headline about an alien invasion in 1953 to include as artwork in Atomic Sunset. Nothing like a bit of sensationalist press to set the scene!

00 Well, not a poster as such. More of a magazine advert really. I drew inspiration for this image from the old Green Army Men ads you used to get on the backs of comic books of the 50s and 60s. I was pretty happy with the end result. It will most likely feature in […]
00 I think this version is better – it tells a story and lets the kids know that hitting giant ants with a baseball bat is A-OK! Click to embiggen the image.
00 In between meeting deadlines at work and watching football well into the early mornings, I have been thinking a lot about the Atomic Sunset game concept and where I want to take it. Andrew and Greg have been helping me build a clearer picture of the idea in my mind and define the sorts […]
00 Trying to model in 10mm is almost beyond the capacity of my pathetic and aging eyesight. Doing the stonework on the Kamarg tower is proving to be a lot more fiddly than I thought it would be and I’ve had to resort to using magnifying lenses so I can see the detail properly. But […]

The Jewell in the Skull – Michael Moorcock. The towers of the Kamarg were the bastion of that land’s defence against the brutal hordes of the […]
00 I just received some photos from Nic and John at Eureka Miniatures of the table setup for the Jurassic Reich game at Little Wars back in May. These are much better shots than I could achieve and so, with their permission, I’ve posted them here for all to see. I’m really pleased with the […]
00 A couple of weeks has passed since the Little Wars convention and my hectic hobby schedule dropped away to zero almost – it’s been great, but a little boring. As a ‘casual’ project to keep me occupied while the vuvuzuela horns blare away in the lounge room, I dug out my Incursion collection and […]
00 These guys have been staring at me for the past few months with their big dead eyes, pleading to be painted. I have around 50 Nazi zombies waiting for me to find the time to give them the attention they deserve. The zeds are for the game “Incursion” from Grindhouse Games (link there’s a […]
