Or a happy little accident as Bob Ross would say. Today my good lady moved my figures and one of the Oni slipped off so she picked it up and put it back on the box file that I use for my paint, it was then that something struck me… I know have giants to go with my Fantasy Japanese forces!

As you can see from the photo, I spent this evening getting the bases painted and then getting them flocked. Once this lot is dry I will get some tufts and pebbles on the bases to match in with the lizards.

I also spent this evening looking for my super magnifier headband thingy. I was having problems with the next army to paint as I couldn’t actually tell what they were. I have spent the last few weeks calling them elves, well I suppose technically they could be long dead elves as they all seem to be skeletons. I am really not sure how I am going to paint these when you cannot actually tell what they are! I will have to try and do my best, but I really do feel that there is some swearing ahead.

Whilst looking for my magnifier, I came across this lot…

The mammoth were used in mammoth racing game, the ogres and giants were got to go with the ork and goblin army, they evidently got separated a good while ago.
