Movies

I try to watch a good movie to stay inspired with my projects, something that you can put on even while you paint and just to listen to it. To me, a good movie is something that you can watch in your mind as you listen to it while concentrating on painting/building... and it brings ideas to you army.

Right now, I've got Where Eagles Dare on in heavy rotation as inspiration for my Valhallans. One idea from the movie I used with my Valhallans was making snow plows for my tanks, similar to what was on the bus at the end of the movie.

Besides being a war monger classic, it combines 6 things I love in life:

1. Mountain warfare
2. British accents
3. Clint Eastwood perpetually annoyed
4. 60's dramatic "BUM BUM BUUUUM" music
5. Bill Murray, I mean Richard Burton
6. Nazi M*A*S*H* helicopters

Check out Where Eagle Dare on IMDB but skip the fan synopsis, it's not accurate and leaves out the awesome.
