Recent Painting for Upcoming Wars of Ozz

     Some of my readers may remember that last October I posted some figures I had painted for an upcoming new 28mm range that Old Glory/Blue Moon were developing for release this year, called Wars of Ozz.  Buck Surdu is developing the rules to go with he figures, and I was invited in to be part of the playtesting team. 
     We have scheduled a bunch of demo games of the rules for the upcoming Cold Wars convention, (Friday night and all day Saturday), so these past couple months we've been busy painting up units for use in the game.   Here are some of the ones I've completed recently.

Zoraster, the Wizard

Colonel Sourdough's Regiment of Munchkins

Colonel Tictoc's Regiment of Munchkins

I also did up some sections of Yellow Brick road to use in the game (which I used in the above photos).   I used Christmas garden bricked streets which I subdivided into 2" widths, and then painted yellow with a small roller.

New Old Glory "Wars of Ozz" Figures

  Old Glory is going to be releasing a new line of figures with accompanying rules early next year called "Wars for Ozz"; They are based heavily on the original L. Frank Baum books, but with their own unique twist.  I was lucky enough to be part of the rules development team, and had a chance to get my hands on some of the figures to paint before their general release.
     These are a couple of the Allied units, which can be added to the forces of any of the four major factions in the game: Munchkins, Quadlings, Winkies, and Gullikins.

   The first is a unit of Skeleton warriors.

  And the second is a unit of fierce. Pumpkinmen

     I was really impressed with these excellent figures.  They have a lot of character and were a joy to paint!
