HOTT Xmas Army

[Moggy]

Well, nearly finished. Just awaiting the arrival of some robotic Reindeer. Here is the rest
















Now to make an army to fight against them!

They look pretty scary to me, Derek. Especially those rather sinister gingerbread men...

Hi Derek, very cool army...

Where did you get the figures from?

I have never played HoTT, always fanced making an 'A Team' army though...

They are a set from Alternative Armies. Cheaper for the set.

I haven't played HOTT for years now. Had forgotten all about it. My next HOTT army turned up today. Robo-Christmas. May have to fiddle with the figures per base rules a tad but all figures are christmasy and (except for the witch and anti-paladin) robotic. (That's what happens when xmas get automated).  Did you think the previous Army was an "evil" army? Will be old vs new xmas!

Got my eye on a few other HOTT armies right now.

Altertnative Armies - Carniverous plants, Dog soldiers.
Mike Yarrow - Inuit & polar bear(Trying to find armoured bears but no luck so far)


OK, I am trying to keep to non-mainstream type hehehe

Couple of more bits done.





Couple of personalities. Waiting on some stuff to go on the bases though

I use AK terrains snow.

I opened the tub for the first time since I did my Fins about a year or so ago. Was set hard. Let some water soak into it. then mix it up and water it down till it is like stodgy paint and apply with a cocktail stick.  Works quite well I think.

I miscounted when ordering the figures so now have to wait for a delivery for another base of the "santa-bots"  .   

Problem is I have 10 days until I fly to the US (COVID permitting). so will probably not be done before I get back in the New Year. Ah well, Maybe I can find out what the the Christmas folk do when its not Christmas. Maybe I should do an Easter Army to fight against them. I know Alternative Armies do some suitabler figures.#

Wearing their Easter bonnets, I hope, with rabbits like the frightener on the Watership Down poster.

[Moggy]

sorry to disappoint. I may be thinking of their 28mm stuff though (Flintloque)

Derek

[Moggy]

Failing that may do something with these instead

Started working on the Barbarians now. Aiming to have enough for a C&K army with some fantasy elements to play them as HOTT as well. Piccies to follow once I have a couple of bases done.
