Model Madness! February continues...

Hello once again all!

So here I am with another installment of "Look what I painted!"  Before I do that I thought I'd just show off a game I managed to play with a bunch of my friend over the weekend...

HEROQUEST!  The greatest board game ever made.  We've been slowly going through the adventure book and just finished up the 5th quest out of the 12. (Although technically the first adventure is more of a board game then a "mission" mission so I skipped that).

Okay I just thought I'd show that off before I got down to the meat of what this is suppose to be about...

Three Orc Arrer boy's for a little WARCRY 3 BLOOD DRAGON!!  I have about 12 of these guys sitting around so I figured I'd paint three so I can use them for a little Warhammer 6th Edition skirmish.  Hopefully I can get around to actually finishing the whole 12 man but for now these guys join the pile as I work on a few more things...

Hopefully I'll have more ready before the end of the week!  Stay Tuned!

Mid Feb RUSH!

Hello all!

Another week, another few minis to add to the pile of stuff I've finished!  So I didn't manage to get as many as I wanted done.  But I got had a chance to finish a unit I'd been meaning to complete for a year now.  So with that said...

Two Chaos Warriors of Tzeentch!  The last two I had to complete a unit i start last year at around this time.

Honestly?  the paint job on them is a bit rough.  I'm not all that good at edge highlighting but I figured I would use this project as my test case.  Mostly just a Tzeentch battalion for fun in AoS games.

With that said, next up!

Okay, now I know I said I would do these last month...but that got delayed.  Now?  They are on the list!  Hopefully I'll have a whole castle out soon!

Till next time!

February and the Great Cleanup!

Hello once again all!

Here I am ready for a new month and new minis I painted. So I got some stuff done and I thought I'd share it all with you.

One Dark Elf Warrior with a Repeater Crossbow, and Executioner and a Goblin Hero!  I painted these guys up for Warhammer 6th Edition skirmish.  I've been watching some online battle reports and I want to put together a few warbands with some minis I have lying around.

So next up!  Finishing up some based models on my desk that have been waiting for years to get painted.  

Stay tuned!

January's End...How Many Minis?

Hello all once again!

So the month is now over and it is time to tally up all that I have painted this month.  However, before that I thought I'd share one last model that I managed to complete before the end of the month!

My General's Adjutant!  Basically a Freeguild General that will accompany my regular foot general for fun and shenanigans.

So with him painted my monthly total for January 2020 is 5 models.  Not as much as last year, but it's a start!  I do plan on finishing atleast one project this year.  So far my list is

1000 points of Stormcast
1000 points of Cities of Sigmar
2000 points of Ogor Mawtribes (Of which 1200 point are already painted)
1000 point Repainted Empire army

So far that is what is on my plate...hopefully I will be able to get some movement on it.  For now...back to painting!

2020! Let the Hobbying Continue!

Hello all!

I'm back! After a nice weekend of "there's too much snow outside, lets stay in and paint!"  So I managed to prime a bunch of stuff I intend to get done this week.  While we wait however I thought I'd share another mini I've been working on.

Renard de Chatillons! and his Squire, Humphrey.  Now while these minis are for the now defunct Bretonnians I really wanted to paint them up.  I had gotten them to make a Mordheim Warband years ago.  Now getting even old metal brets off Ebay is getting...expensive.

So now I can just use him as a Noble Champion!  Along with his squire he gets for free.  The old Bretonnian Warscroll for a foot knight was much better then the one that exist in the Age of Sigmar app right now.  So he can have an extra dude tag along with him.

Well with that done lets show off what I have in the pipeline

Some old 5th and 6th Edition Dark Elves that I want to put paint to brush for a little....fun on the side.  You'll get a much better look once I'm done!

Until then!

2020! Time to get down to the Hobby!

Hello Everyone!  and Happy New year!

Okay it is time to start off 2020 right!  Now I plan on clearing off a bunch of stuff on my desk that I didn't get to back in November.  So with that in mind lets take a look at the first mini of 2020!

Battlemage for my Cities of Sigmar army!

All in all I'm actually glad I repainted this guy from my Empire Army.  I don't really use magic in Warhammer Fantasy and he was just collecting dust anyway.  So here he is with a much improved colour scheme from my original.

So right now base coating is a bit of a challenge as the weather has been warm and humid.  So my next project may take awhile to get to.  But just so i can show what is coming down the pipe.

I finally have the last of the pieces I need to complete my GW plastic Citadel Fortress!  I have to file off a bit of flash and re-glue some of the pieces but hopefully I will have them all done and painted by the end of the month...if the weather gets better and I can basecoat.

In the mean time I'll put paint to brush on a few other things sitting on my desk.

One miniature down for 2020!

December Almost Done! What did I paint?

Hello Everyone!

So the year is creeping to a close.  Despite this however, the long painting war continues against the horde on my desk.  While I didn't buckle down and force myself to pound out a bunch of stuff like I had planned, I did manage one.

Yes one model this month, not much but December is filled with social engagements and mild colds caused by people around me.  You cannot escape the germs!

With that said however, lets take a look at what I finished!

One Freeguild General all painted up and ready to go!  I've had this model for awhile but was never sure what to do with him.  I really didn't want to add him to my Averland army for Warhammer Fantasy and when the Cities of Sigmar book got rid of all Freeguild General models, except the one with the Zweinhander, I figured I could get use out of him.

With this guy done that take my model total for 2019 to 103!  That's a record for me...as far as I can tell.  I've never really tracked any of that before this year.

Now I'm not sure if I will have time to get anything else done, but lets take a look at whats next on my table.

One Battlemage for my Freeguild and a 3D printed Otyugh I picked up at a convention.  I hope to at least try to get them done before the new year.

Until next time all!
