When I say done, I mean the seven that I had undercoated.
Here they are robbing out the stones from the wall.
I also got the frogs done too.
For these photos I decided to try out my background book…
I also used one of my battle mats. To go onto the table.. I am pleased with how it looks for both photos.
I will probably do the dozen goblins with spears next. Well I need them done as soon as possible as Highland Miniatures are bringing out orks next month. I am liking what I see so far.
This evening I did a bit on the Goblin rock chuckers, the last of the frog catchers. I think he may have even more trouble with the two in the yellow armour.
I will carry on with these tomorrow.
Well this afternoon I finished the knights. I decided on the maroon/purple for the white bits. I wanted to add a brighter colour to give them a bit more oomph. I had originally thought to go with red, but I reckon I chose the correct colour. you can see the one I was thinking of to the left of the second photo.
Tonight I am off to the club to get trounced, I mean play another game of Grimdark Future.
Tonight I sat myself down and got to work on the skeletal knights. I fully didn’t intend to do a great deal. I stuck Men in Black on Netflix as some background noise and away I went,..
I got this far. Bridles, pennants, the standard and the leader’s scabbard to do. A bit of work on the base and they will be pretty much done.
Major Storm warning for tomorrow. Probably the reason for all the helicopters flying around with telegraph poles over the last week.
Tonight I did a smidge of painting…
I probably would have got a lot more done, but my eldest and I bought Baldur’s Gate 3.
The red one among them is for the vampire.
Tonight I decided to get these finished. It was really just the iron boots on them all and a blast around to try and hit any white spots.
I also sprayed the skeletons and rock chuckers. I think I will do the skellies first. I may have to support the horses to avoid the flexible resin droop.
Actually thinking about it, I have a couple of space frogs that I undercoated. So I might as well do these alongside the skeletons.
Tonight I got busy on the computer and really couldn’t be bothered to paint anything. So instead I glued miniatures to bases.
I will get these sprayed tomorrow.
Tonight I did some work on the archers.
I would say, I am getting there.
Tonight I had to bottle some white paint…
Yes the lid on my Skull white eventually gave up the ghost so an intervention was required. Well it was that or bin it. As the caption above says… I didn’t spill it. In fact I lost none.
Tonight I decided that enough was enough and forced myself to sit down and paint. I got this far with the archers…
I quite like the blue/grey of the hoods. Still a long way to go, but progress is still progress.
I also found the missing skeletal horseman… he was hiding with more goblins.
There are half a dozen rock chuckers and a poor goblin trying to pacify a giant frog. The ones with the rocks are basically the swamp goblin equivalent to the Night Goblin fanatics.
I have noticed of late that the steroids aren’t seeming to be stopping the pain from the poly myalgia. The doctor is bumping me back up a mg to 9mg to see if that helps. Fingers crossed. Luckily I am now on my October break… Wooohooo 🥳.
So after the multitude of Goblins, which I haven’t touched for two days, what will be next?
Well I think I will go back to the undead. I remembered the Skeleton cavalry so they will be undercoated ready to go once the goblin archers are done.
The more observant of you will notice there are seven mounts and only six riders… this is a puzzle to me too. Somewhere a skeleton is missing his horse.
To be honest I could have based a dozen halberd armed goblins, but these should be quicker.
The vampire on the left should be mounted on a zombie dragon thing, but when I printed her, I really couldn’t be bothered with the faff of another big thing.
