Knights and Pumpkins

I carried on with the Knights and foot soldiers this evening. I just need to get the bases painted on the foot below. I have to finish Joan D’arc and make a start on another mounted knight and another banner bearer on foot,

I also got this lot done for my mate…

I still have to do the stems and then get them based up.

For these pumpkins I went outside my usual method and sprayed these black, dry brushed them white then added the orange. I actually did something different to my usual… I won’t be doing this regularly though.

In other news my new filament printer arrived today.

Something Achieved

This evening I forced myself to paint something. I am really not in the mood at the minute. Ongoing health problems mean I am knackered and then I have had this flu thing…

But this evening I went for it 🙂

Mr Dwarf was picked up and added to the part painted pile. He is nearly finished… it has only taken me about ten months so far.

Hopefully I will keep the momentum going tomorrow.

Another Knight Finished

This evening I got this pair finished.

Bill the pony made an appearance to balance the scene up a bit. I am toying with the idea to add water slide transfers to the knight as well as the shields on the various foot soldiers.

I made a start on another pair of mounted knights as well as more foot.

The school has built a little diorama for a local festival of trees. Here is a work in progress…

I will get photos of the finished diorama tomorrow… well it better be finished tomorrow as I need to get it to the organisers tomorrow afternoon.

Painting Knights

This evening I got some paint slapped onto the Highland Miniatures Knights.

The colours for the livery are in a different style to the previous iterations.

I really had to force myself to get this small amount done. I am still not 100% so anything I manage is better than nothing.

Swordswoman

This evening I wanted a quick win so redid this lady.

She basically is the same original colours for the tunic and breeches. I just redid them better then got the rest of her done.

I will get some flock on the base when I get a lot more miniatures done. I could have looked up what actual regiment she is from in the Flintloque world, but didn’t for two reasons. One, it is for my mate, who wasn’t that fussed and two,it is a fantasy world – I wasn’t too fussed either.

It was a nice easy miniature to paint the biggest fuss were the suspenders and even they weren’t that fussy as they are quite chunky and easy to do.

Apart from the base this was all done in Speedpaints 2.0. Oh yeah, while I remember The white bits were my rebottled GW paint from a good while ago…

A Bit of Painting

I got my finger out and finished the grave digger. I also did I wthe masked lady as well as a couple of scatter pieces.

I also used any ‘spare’ paint to get some work done on the knights. Not a huge amount, but enough to make a start.

I will hopefully crack on with the knights tomorrow.

NEXT!

I really didn’t fancy painting the Sisters this evening.

The Steroids seem to be becoming less effective which is an absolute Bugger. I have already had to go back up a microgramme and it is looking like I will need to go back up again.

So instead of painting I built a few more Gallians, which will be undercoated and painted tomorrow.

The metal ones are for my mate. This pair arrived with the ones I painted yesterday. these are from Westwind miniatures.

I will of course be back with the ‘one coat’ paints tomorrow. 🙂

A Smidge on the Goblins

This evening I was a bit pooped and really couldn’t be bothered to paint anything.

I did force myself to do a bit so spent a little time painting the tunics on the rank and file.

To speed things up I painted them all a grey colour. Basically they are all in un-dyed cloth.

Hopefully I will crack on tomorrow and get a fair bit done.

Goblin Pole Arms

This evening I managed to get some work done on the goblins.

I shall carry on with these tomorrow. There is still a lot to do… especially on the ones in the background. The one with the log for the helmet is a total repaint. The middle one and him are pretty much finished now.
