All Packed Up

The luggage is finished.  It felt good to put paint to a model after so long.  I painted it over the course of two nights while watching "The Addams Family".  The sculpt is nice and easy to paint.

Brad pointed out after I was finished painting that the knot holes on the lid look like eyes (I did not notice that the entire time I was working on it)

"The Luggage had an elemental nature, absolutely no brain, a homicidal attitude toward anything that threatened its master, and Rincewind wasn't quite sure that its insides occupied the same space-time framework as its outside." ~Terry Pratchett, The Colour of Magic

 

The arrow on the base is to help identify what tile on the Guards Guards board the luggage currently occupies (since the base is just a little too big).  It is nice seeing the luggage run around the board eating people.

Next up on the painting block is Lord Downey...

More Discworld

On my recent trip to Ireland, I was lucky enough to find a copy of both "Guards Guards" and "The Witches" (the former was a very thoughtful gift from my girlfriend).  Once I get the rules down for both games a little more I will make a review post with more details. 

To enhance both games I ordered some of the Discworld Minatures from Micro Art Studio.  The models are very nice and alot of fun to work on.  I have not picked up a paint brush for a few months, so I am looking forward to painting these.

The Luggage is the first off (since it is one of my favorite characters and the model looks cool).  In the Guards Guards game, the luggage roams the table sending any character it comes in contact with to the hospital (this happened to Josh in round 2 of the first game).
