All,
First off, please understand these are a work in progress, not finished troops, but I was so excited by how they're turning out I felt like hanging them here to show everyone. So, I'm starting a new project, this time in 3mm. I know what you're thinking: Jack, you have all those beautiful (yuk yuk) 10mm armies, why on earth would you ever want to use a different scale?
Well, as it turns out, Mrs. Jack is over halfway pregnant, with another little Prince on orders to report in this summer. What does that have to do with 10mm and 3mm armies? Well, I could be wrong, but more than likely these developments mean I will be spending a lot less time painting and playing, and when I am playing, odds are that stepping upstairs for 3 to 5 hours to my playroom probably won't go over very well.
So, I painted up some spare Pico Armor I had lying around, and decided this is what I was looking for. I put in a decent sized order Sunday night and received them today (great service), so I'll be working on them. In any case, here's a test shot to see what you guys think:
I love it! 24 inches by 24 inches on the coffee table, with little tanks popping off at other little tanks, it's gonna work like a charm.
And did I mention that's 3mm! I won't say I'm a good painter (obvious by the white showing on my ballast), but this proves I'm a much better painter than I use to be. Sorry, just a bit too proud of myself.
In any case, if you want to see a few more pics and read about what I ordered and I what I intend on doing with it, please hop on over to the blog:

Stay tuned, this weekend I intend on doing less painting and more gaming, so I'll look to get some games in and get the batreps written up and posted.
V/R,
Jack
