Painting Update

Managed to finish most of the uncompleted stuff on my desk this week plus a few extras. Firstly Darkest Africa explorers painted some time ago. The balance of the Darkest Africa women explorers   An old school Citadel Elf Mage Citadel Hook Horror which I have had since it was released in the 80's A couple of citadel snakes off of ebay a few months ago, followed by two Vampire Wars wolfs, quite possibly to be used for mordhiem as part of the undead warband. And finally my last batch of metal saxons, with Gripping Beast shield transfers, blended in with a bit of paint (you can just see the line where the transfer ends on the blue shield). Now I just need to decide on one project

Projects in progress

What with otherworld miniatures ( http://www.otherworld.me.uk/store.html ) having a 20% off sale and my eclectic painting table I thought I would pin down exactly what my projects/targets are for 2011. Projects I want to complete but I have no idea what I will do with them once I have a significant number of figures painted Otherworld/D&D painting is a childhood project which now my painting standard has improved I feel capable of making some steps with. No idea what I will do with the figures once they are painted though. Just know I am buying them faster than I am painting. I will add to this my collection of Dark Sun figures which I would like to paint some time. Modern zombie apocalypse, been working on this with the odd Z for numerous year, now there are loads of rule sets and figures available I should really finish off the 44 I have, giving me around 100 z’s,   my biker gang and a few others. Mordheim, sort of ties in with D&D, need to finish a warband or 3, Undead

Painting Bench Update

The proof of my inability to focus is on the painting table. The following 75% finished figures, 3 Saxons, 2 modern zombies, 3 Darkest africa, 1 Elf mage (who has been there at least 4 months).   Also one modern character in a wheelchair (a very welcome gift), one sudan mounted dervish, 1 acw figure (think he is there as I found him on the floor), 2 snakes, 2 wolfs a vampire and a dreg (for mordheim). That ignores anything within reaching distance..... Anyway a picture of a recent darkest Africa female explorer,

AWI Game pictures

Just some eye candy from Saturdays ACW game in East Bergholt. None painted by me, but most are certainly by someone just a bit more talented.  

Current Projects

Looking at it I certainly have far too many projects. Today I dabbled again with Darkest Africa painting a female explorer. Although I am currently sort of working on a Mordheim undead warband, with a vampire finished this month. Thats ingnoring any other projects including amoungst others an undead army, including this old plague cart. So I need to concentrate on finishing something!
