Woah… I actually Did Something

As the title says, I actually got my arse into gear and managed to paint something… not a huge amount, but I did manage. It was really hard to get motivated. I mean I actually had to force myself to sit down… it was a definite case of Captain Procrastination this evening.

I have added a Greenstuff saddle to the bear to give the rider a bit of packing under his backside.

I also finished the ram rider, he is now ready for basing.

I got a couple of packages today, one was a paddle board and the other was my long awaited Vallejo Xpress paints… sadly I had a bit of an issue…

Luckily it was just one of the bottles of red.

This came today and I asked for Speedpaints 2.0 for my birthday on Friday so look out for a wave of painting taking place…well I hope there will be.

A bit of Painting

It was the last day of term today and the last Geek club for a while. I managed to get some painting done.,,

The one on the left is the latest one. I do like this range. which is why I went for another red panda.

Armoured Bear

Now to put things into context in gaming terms I am à wood elf player… dwarves… meh! But I have persevered and painted some for Mordheim. But to be honest I want a lot of these 🙂

Really like the bear heavy cavalry.

Dwarf Rangers

This evening I did a bit more on the pair of rangers and a smidge on the mounted dwarf too.

They are nearly finished…

I have come up with a new game… it’s called ‘Guess the model from it’s supports’. Here is your starter for ten

Dwarf Rangers

Tonight I got kicked off the computer so I decided to paint something. The dwarf rangers were handy so they got some paint slapped on them…

Still a fair way to go, but more colour than white now.

15mm Japan (and some China)

This evening I glued some more bits and pieces together. The ruined farm house is for my mate. The other stuff is my own shrine.

I have added signs from one of the market stalls to the box shrine and taken the original front to make a gateway. I just wanted it different from my mates version.

My mate Wiggy has said he will return to role playing after his stroke so long as I run Qin. Time to start reading…

A Mobile Shrine

So my mate took his birthday present home with him in the car so I reckon we can class it as a mobile Shrine.

So instead of a pristine shrine, I wanted to go for one that is more run down, hence the faded colours on the building. I also got to work with my home made tufts…

All in all I am quite pleased with how this came out. Next stage trying to repeat it in a scale suitable for 6mm, as well as 15mm too. One day I may even do it in 28mm!

A Small Shrine

It was my mates birthday a couple of weeks ago and as I am seeing him tomorrow I thought I had better getbmy finger out and make him something,

I made him a small Japanese shrine for his 15mm Sengoku Monster Hunter games.

Basically he can put in either the ancient tree trunk or the building. I will add some tufts etc tomorrow.

These pieces come from the newish shrine set.

Back with the Nam

So, I haven’t been posting much lately. This is in part due to laziness and part due to playing too much Ark Survival Evolved.

I did get this lot photographed this evening… the boat crew were printed about 3 weeks ago and the engineers and sappers about two. The latter were taken off the supports this evening and then left in the sun to cure.

This evening I also shrank down and printed some Samurai stuff from 3D Alien print. hopefully you will see a painted example tomorrow.

Painting Windows

I actually got my butt into gear this evening and got some paint onto the Hog. To be honest there are so many things wrong with this miniature that it is going to become a test miniature… well unless I suddenly like it:)

I will carry on with this over the next while and see how it goes.

I am going to try and get hold of some decals to help with numbers etc.
