Welcome / Bienvenu

This blog drags together, into one swirling maelstrom of crackling energy, my various wargames interests. There are links on the top right to my other blogs, each more calmly dedicated to one particular gaming universe.

I aim to post about once a week, and I have decided in 2026 to shift the focus of the blog from showing isolated painted figures, to taking photos of figures in action, a sort of mostly-photo AAR.

The pages at the top of the blog contain historical information on the periods that interest me. They are primarily an aid to my poor memory, and not meant to be in any way exhaustive, nor necessarily correct.

I hope this blog offers you much enjoyment and some inspiration !

Carnevale - The Guild

 


I have fallen for the Carnevale universe...I'm hoping to embark my friends aboard the gondola, but for that I'll need to paint up at least three factions.

This is the Capodecina that will lead the Guild band.  I have already posted him here a couple of months ago, but now he is fully based (and, I must admit, the base pleases me !).  My first Carnevale figures were a by product of the terrain I was after, and didn't come with cobbled bases.  I figured that didn't matter, I would paint on the cobblestones when the time came.  Except I really didn't want to, when the time came !

By pure coincidence, I had bought some AK Interactive crackle-effect basing material from an FLWS in Spain.  Whereas the GW equivalent makes large crackling, like sun-baked earth, this one makes much tighter effects, and I figured I could use it for my Carnevale figures.  What a lot of time saved !  

For the moment, the Capodecina is lacking recruits, the band is only three strong.  The Patricians are the furthest ahead, with 7 figures (pictures will follow), there are 5 painted up in the Vatican faction, and the Rashaar have 2 members. Yes, I know I said three factions, that is four.  What can I say ?
