It must admit, I was quite surprised rummaging through the Loot I collected at The Other Partizan last weekend. I knew I'd bought a few bags of stuff, but didn't realise how much!!!
Firstly the last 4 trees from the Last Valley stall.
I wanted the unpainted version, but Coritani had sold out, so I had to have the painted version.
Why an Anciet Greek ruin you ask???

And why all the loose columns???
Well.......my 10 years old nephew loves Greek Mythology, so I'm gonna paint up some bits for him, and lead him up the wargaming garden path, well hopefully anyway?
I also picked up a few paints from Coritani as well.
A bit of a mixture here, all from those great chaps from Warbases. Firstly more wagon's for the Retreat from Moscow, paints, some magnetized bases, for the Greek Mythology project and a new knife. I've somehow misplaced my favourite knife during the move a few months ago. It';; probably turn up now I've bought a new one?
A random buy, this chap used to frighten the life outta me when I was a kid, the Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!!
He may come in handy during the up and coming Painting Challenge?
I'd not seen these before? a wagon and outhouse from Warlord, they were a bit pricey tbh, but I thought I'd give them a go, Skytrex did have loads of other great looking buildings from Warlord, but I'd need a 2nd mortgage to buy any of them.
The previously mentioned Greeks from Foundry, I bought Jason and the Argonauts and Hercules and the Argonauts. to fight them I bought two packs of Skeleton's , who spring out of the ground when the Hydra's teeth are thrown into the dirt. Also a pack of Gods, including the big man himself.
Also yet another wagon, this time from Iron Gate Scenery and some scenery from Ironclad Miniatures.
Four building from the Tree Fella, all 3D printed, me and Lee bought 3 damaged building at the last Partizan.
Unfortunately one of the roofs is wrong and doesn't match the building.
Arrgghh!
They should look pretty decent with a lick of paint on.
At the bring and buy I bought another 2 buildings, a ruined stables.
With a removable roof
Which should fit into my Donnybrook collection very well.
From the same guy I also picked up this medieval/tudor house
Again this should fit into the Donnybrook era.
And the roof comes off too!
Next up and also from the Bring & Buy, this medieval house.
It was only when I took the photos for this post I realised that the building doesn't have a door!!!
So I'll have to add one, if I ever get around to it, that is?
From the same guy I bought these 4 ECW buildings, the chap, carefully placed all 4 an the previous building in a box, as he lifted the box all 5 building fell out of the bottom, smashing one into firwood!!
The offending building is now all glued together and will need a little touch up as there were a few pieces missing.
Well I think I did rather well, don't you?
Now this is an impressive haul!
ReplyDeleteAgreed!
DeleteThat's a big load of terrain, the Tudor buildings are good and so are the ancient ruins, I managed to get two of my nephews into gaming, via 40k but Jason and the Argonauts sounds much better, I have the makings of lots of wagons so I don't need any, love the child catcher, might have to get one !
ReplyDeleteChildren!!!
Best Iain
The child catcher, gives me the shivers!
DeleteVery nice acquisitions, Ray! Watch the hobby knife turn up in the damnedest, least-hobby related place.
ReplyDeleteYep, Its bound to turn up now!
DeleteReally like the first tudor house with removable roof ….. the one without a door is a hoot!
ReplyDeleteThe Last Valley does sell his stock quickly.
I didn't even notice the missing door?
DeleteWow, plenty of buildings in that haul
ReplyDeleteJust gotta find somewhere to put them now.
DeleteGreat haul Ray and you should be able to build a small town with that!
ReplyDeleteI hope so!
DeleteWow that really is a pile of stuff Ray - you must have left it in the car when you got home and smuggled it in after Mrs R had gone to bed!!
ReplyDeleteShhhh!
DeleteA good selection of purchases there Ray from a few companies I had never heard of before. One of the advantages of going to a show, I suppose.
ReplyDeleteYes, indeed. That's whats great about shows in the UK.
DeleteNo door - how did they miss that?
ReplyDeleteCool you got the pillars for your nephew. Inspire the next generations of gamers.
Crazy eh? I'm sure my nephew will love a game.
DeleteWoooa! What an awesome haul!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal.
DeleteVery impressive load of goodies Ray, a fair bit of real estate there, all look very nice.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, I hadn't planned to buy loads of buildings, but couldn't say no.
DeletePlenty of stuff there to keep you busy and out of trouble.
ReplyDeleteIn trouble too!
DeleteA very nice haul from the traders.
ReplyDeleteYes indeedy, Lee!
DeleteA splendid haul indeed Ray…
ReplyDeleteI do like the idea of your little Jason and the Argonauts game/project…
All the best. Aly
Me too, Aly. Can't wait to start.
DeleteA very good haul there Ray and you must have had to make several trips to the car, rather than carry that around with you;)!
ReplyDeleteI did Steve, three trips back!
