Hello Here are two pictures of armies I have recently painted. The garden gnomes are Peter Pig. The banana knights are 3D printed. Very nice, but very fragile ! Yours sincerely Claude

I’m currently working on a new HoTT army. This army is unusual for me, as it is being built in reverse. I usually make the army first, then finally make a Stronghold for them. But since I received this as a recent birthday present… …I now need to make an army to fit this Stronghold. (Note: the windows light-up and cycle through red, blue and green over several minutes) Discworld Ankh-Morpork ‘Army’1 x Cohen the Barbarian (Hero General @ 4 AP)…over 80 years old, but still the best fighter on the Discworld. 1 x trio of senior Wizards (Magicians @ 4 AP)…three fat Wizards from the Ankh-Morepork Unseen University. 1 x Rincewind and The Luggage (Sneakers @ 3 AP)…The Luggage fights well, but Rincewind keeps running away. 1 x squadron of mounted Yeomanry (Riders @ 2 AP)…rich aristocrats, more used to chasing harmless animals. 1 x pack of ‘four-legged-friends’ (Beasts @ 2 AP)…pets, strays and werewolves, led by Gaspode the talking dog. 2 x companies of City Watchmen (Blades @ 4 AP)…breaking-up drunken tavern brawls makes them good fighters. 2 x companies of Militia Crossbowmen (Shooters @ 4 AP)…too lazy for all that muscle building longbow practise. 1 x Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler (Lurker @ 1 AP)…who doesn’t actually fight, but sells dodgy fast food to the enemy from his two-wheeled handcart, incapacitating them with stomach craps and severe diarrhoea… Stronghold = the Ankh-Morepork Unseen University tower…the impressive looking dragon is not real but merely a magical illusion, and is meant to deter carol singers, trick-or-treaters and political canvassers… Alternatives:- 1 x coven of Witches (Clerics @ 3 AP)…led by Granny Weatherwax, who’s ‘headology’ makes them immune to magic. 1 x Tavern Guild contingent (Warband @ 2 AP)…violent drunken revellers looking for a fight (“Who you looking at?”). 1 x DEATH himself ( a God @ 4 AP)…………………..no-one knows when he will appear, or when he will leave…

Oh the Librarian is in the tower, and it is he that gives the Stronghold its combat factor of ‘6’.

KZINTI (All the pictures shown here are from khurasanminiatures.tripod.com/15mmscifi-infantry.html#alien-creatures . I doubt that my painting will look as good…but I’ll have a go. Unfortunately, these figures don’t come with the pink hairless rat-like tails characteristic of the Kzinti. So I’ve already drilled holes at the base of their spine’s ready for the insertion of thin bendy fuse wire) Kzinti (pronounced ‘kuz-ZIN-tee’) are the large vicious technologically advanced tiger-like aliens from Larry Niven’s “Known Space” sci-fi stories, who like to eat their prisoners. They fought four great interstellar wars and had several major military incidents against humanity during the 24th to 27th centuries, but lost every one of these due to their being far too impatient and far too impetuous in seeking personal glory, always attacking before they were ready. By the 27th century the once mighty Kzinti Patriarchy had lost ⅔ of its population, half its colony and slave worlds, their Homeworld of Kzin had been occupied, and they were limited to only possessing light police weapons. These will consist of:- 1 x Fully Named Hunt Leader (Mounted Hero General @ 4 AP)...the ‘Skycycles’ don’t actually fly but merely hover at head height. 2 x Partially Named Prides (Beasts @ 4 AP)...one has earned a name, displayed in the ‘Heroes Tongue’ of dots and commas. 4 x Nameless Prides (Warbands @ 8 AP)...without a name, so no access to females, and simply called by their current job. 1 x Nameless Hunter (Lurker @ 1 AP)...a lone ambush predator hoping to perform some heroic deed and earn himself a name. 1 x Missile Mortar (Magician @ 4 AP)...a portable guided missile launcher with individually targeted multiple warheads, plus a landed ‘skycycle’. 1 x Cowardly Telepath (Cleric @ 3 AP)...he ‘knows’ when a distant attack is coming, so warns targeted friends to take cover to avoid it. The two nameless bodyguards are for his protection, but also to prevent him from running away! Their Stronghold will be a concrete Kzinti Military Base surrounded by a laser fence, with other hidden defenses giving it a CF of 6. Their opponents will be the Terran Space Command (which I have the figures and vehicles for, but have not yet painted). This will consist of:- 1 x Commander and his/her Chief-of-Staff (Blade General @ 2 AP)...2 figures in body armor with open helmets. 4 x Space Marine Teams (Shooters @ 8 AP)...2 figures each, armoured as above and carrying laser pulse rifles. 1 x Anti-Grav Mini-Tank (Behemoth @ 4 AP)...a small powerful heavily armoured vehicle operated by two crewman. 1 x Anti-Grav Howitzer (Magician @ 4 AP)...a small mobile bombardment vehicle also operated by two crewman. 2 x Anti-Grav Troop Carriers (Riders or Beasts @ 4 AP)...if ‘Beasts’ the troops carried dismount to fight in Bad Going. 1 x Autonomous Robotic Drone (Flyer @ 2 AP)...used for both reconnaissance and aerial attack purposes. Their Stronghold will be a transparent domed base containing colony buildings and some cultivated Earth plant-life. Alternatives: Beowulf Shaeffer with his current girlfriend and a landed two-seater ‘skycycle’ (Mounted Hero @ 4 AP). Although he lived in the 27th century, and didn’t fight in the Man-Kzin Wars, the earlier centuries had their own civilian Heroes. (Note that this Terran Space Command can also be used by humanity in the future when they fight the Daleks, Cybermen, Sontarans and others on distant colony worlds...sometimes with the time-travelling Doctor and his Companion as the Hero)And here is the campaign map:- (Some of these stars are not in the right place due to them being high above or below the galactic plane, but I’ve included them anyway for completeness)
Just remember to never smile and show your teeth to a Kzinti, or he will instinctively scream and leap at you...

This fellow was the capstone on my undead Egyptian army; I couldn't find any skeletal horses of an appropriate scale, so I attempted to paint these ones as recently deceased and reanimated. Cue jokes about "beating a dead horse" whenever he rolls a 1 in combat!

Gonna start work on some undead forces. Think I have enough skellies but may need a necromancer or vampire to lead em.
