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
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.
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.
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.
I Found Some Green
Today I suddenly realised that I had a can of Army Painter green. Joe brought it back for me ages ago. But well done past me for asking for it.
The Hog looks a bit better now that it is green.
Well this whole thing got me thinking, the rotor sticks out a long way forward and we will not even talk about much it would stick out sideways. So in my rather foolish brain I wondered about electronically boring out magnet holes in the rotor and the fuselage.
This would mean in game all of the rotors wouldn’t be bow/stern. There could be some variations.
Over the next few days I will work on this and see what I can come up with painting wise. I am actually going to have to use normal paint! Eek!
Painting Tough Ladies
Well I haven’t totally forgot about my Mordheim plans… it has just got derailed a bit by some goblins and the Nam. I managed to do a bit of painting today…
Attempt at Tiger Stripes
So this evening I got my finger out and started painting. I pushed on with the Recon dude and female civilian…
Now I really needed to add in the light squiggles but I don’t think my eyes or brush control are up to it. Now one day, I may push on and give it a go but not today. You can see what it looks like below.
Woohoo Painting
Yes I managed to get some painting done this evening. I slapped paint on this lot.
I bet you can’t guess what paint colour spurted out of the bottle.
I will hopefully get some more done tomorrow.
Tonight I Was Going to Paint These…
Please note the ‘was’ there. Everything is either aching or hurting so painting was cancelled. I was looking forward to having a go at painting tiger striped uniforms. Last time I tried that was in the late 90’s.
The civilian and VC were there as a ‘now you have finished the hard bit’ interlude.
Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.
