Finally, here is my first completion of 2012, a rowdy little goblin patrol of Hasslefree miniatures.




They're pretty nice little figures, though definitely dimunitive, and like many HF multipart figures they have pretty small contact areas, and could probably benefit from pinning- of course the shoulders are very thin, so there is only the tiniest amount of metal to bite into. I decided the risk wasn't worth the pain, and didn't pin them myself . . .we'll see how they hold up.

General strike



I finally finished the groundwork on my general yesterday afternoon. I've always thought this figure was a perfect choice for a general, leading from in and among his troops. You don't get a much more iconic empire weapon than the halberd either.

Very happy with him, and a great way to wrap up 2011.
