A flying visit today, just to prove that I am not dead really! The abomnible combination of work, family, commuting ( a new ill for me) and not to mention the wife's new desire to move house have all conspired to prevent me from blogging, or indeed, even painting!
One thing I can do is direct the many hundreds of visitors that this blog gets daily, thanks to you all, to quality third edition related links.
Last time it was the incredible Three Flies For Nurgle, and those of you who have not frequented that blog, then why not?
This time its the fascinating Oldhammer Generals blog. The propriator of said blog is none other than Jonathan Merry Esq. He has gone to the trouble of scanning for us some of the startling dioramas put together by the legendary Colin Dixon ( a man who deserves a post entirely devoted to his early 80s work ) which, though simple by model standards, have an immediacy and narrative often lost on more contemporary efforts.
But that is quite enough from me, I like the images to speak for themselves.
How many of those classics are in your collection then?
Here are a few links you may find interesting.
So do yourself a favour, support Jonathan over at his blog and (hopefully) he will put on more quality old school goodness like this soon.
Big post promised on the weekend. We will be having an in depth look at the only scenario published for Third outside the rulebooks.
Orlygg.
