\"Recreational<\/a>

Chris and I are getting ready to run a large (20+ player) Mars game with GASLIGHT at Historicon this Summer. \u00a0In preparation, I’ve been painting green Martians (see previous post, Bronze Age Miniatures) and now red Martians (also Bronze Age Miniatures). \u00a0I also picked up the hover sled from Recreational Conflict at Fall In in November. \u00a0I have been working on them a little at a time over the past couple of weeks. \u00a0This weekend I finished them.<\/p>\n

The Bronze Age red Martians come in packs of five. \u00a0I didn’t realize until I got home that one of the “citizen” backs was missing a couple of swords. \u00a0I wrote an Email to the company, but they never responded. \u00a0I reached into my bit box and found some extra Moro swords from Pass of the North. \u00a0You can see one in the picture above.<\/p>\n

\""Interior"<\/a>

The sled also had a nice interior, as can be seen above. \u00a0I chose to go with an orange color scheme, thinking it would blend with Martian terrain.<\/p>\n

I have some Wargames Factory plastic Zulu War British that I am painting in orange uniforms for Martian service. \u00a0Stay tuned for pictures of them in the near future.<\/p>\n
