While I'm nearly finished the Operation Sealion forces I had a go at painting some of my Soviet forces which I have been hoarding for a while, nearly have a platoon done, I followed the painting instructions on the box from PSC but I'm not happy with the colour, the figures or my paintjob/choice of colour but I suppose I'm not called the Happy Lurker for a reason and they were as the budgie goes cheap!
The British Military Tournament was very good even if I was sitting in the Gods (well nearly!) and will post pictures..
Lots more Soviets to come.......

28mm Modern Civilians for Zombie Gaming part 3...what are their chances?
Some more candidates for surviving the upcoming apocalypse, figures are from Hasslefree Miniatures and have yourselves a good weekend...I'm off to the Military Tattoo in London on Saturday (early Christmas present).
This guy is a bit of a lump, college student, possible college football player, maybe a linebacker...or a golfer? 7 out of 10
This little lady caught sunbathing at the beach when hostilities broke out, vulnerable, no supplies or clothes but plenty of possible suitors will volunteer to protect her? 8 out of 10
He'll protect her!
Nice hat!

Angry Movie Lurker Honest Review 59: Conan the Barbarian 2011 (3 STARS)
...and a short review as someone at work has gone sick and I'm being forced to actually work!
Ok, it's not the original and has very little to do with it but it's an enjoyable romp with our new Conan (Jason Momoa from Stargate Atlantis and Game of Thrones) playing the Cimmerian with a penchant for aggression and hacking limbs off and his quest to revenge himself on Khalar Sym (Stephen Lang) for the death of his father and destruction of his village. Khalar wants to resurrect his dead wife with the help of his sorceress daughter, he needs to find the pieces of a mask and the blood of true blood who falls into Conan's hands.
The action is plentiful, good set pieces with a lot of fighting on the screen, great and bizarre costumes, weird bad guys and weirder dialogue but he's no Arnold but it's not that much of a problem, it's a popcorn movie that won't have you bothered about a sequel.
