Just a cheeky post to say I've been updating my blog to start showing off some more Heroclix models I've painted (Groot being the latest): link

as well as the start of a Blake's 7 project:

Both of which should conjure up some "Crooked Dice" 7TV battle reports in the near future – I'm just typing up one featuring Batman and the Duck Wonder, Howard :-)

As an aside if you're into superhero comics I've been running a comic review blog for the past few weeks looking at old and new issues. Its here if interested: thebrownbagaeccb.blogspot.co.uk

Thanks for looking :-)

Rocket Raccoon is my fav

And to be fair the Heroclix model from the Starter Set is rather nice as well. But the pre-paints just a little too thick for the detail on such a tiny model.

The Marvel Rocket Raccoon comic by Skottie Young is rather good too.

Now I have to go to youtube and watch the Blakes' Seven intro-:^))

I'm a huge Blakes 7 fan! Sadly, they never released DVDs here in the states.

Game the final episode, and figure some way for them to survive, will you? :)

@dilettante LOL… Could be worse , you could have found yourself needing to watch this: YouTube link

@Spudeus Long way to go yet but I will try. They actually covered this in a B7 Radio Show a few years back now with most of the cast. Turns out it was all in Avon's head, having been captured by Servalan and tortured. Wasn't very good to be fair…

Thanks for your interest though, much appreciated :-)

Speaking of YouTube, you can find most of the Blakes 7 episodes on YouTube. I just went and started watching the first episode!

@ Fergal Glad you're watching the classics :-) The first episode is possibly my fave of the entire series – How sad is that!?!

For those interested I've posted a painting update of my B7 minis here: link

Thanks for looking.

wasn't there talk a while back about rebooting B7 (a la BSG) and updating it? would be great to see what could be done with it nowadays

There was a couple of years ago but I think its all gone quiet since. The old cast are doing audios these days over at Big Finish if you're interested.
