Partial Update
/
Trying to get organised to get back onto regular updates, since i finished the Armies on Parade stuff.
I got super motivated and finished off the rest of the 20 block, it was so nice painting different models rather than all GW.

Crazy month, we have had a full lockdown, and when that happens work goes crazy. Ive not painted much in the past month but focusing on painting some heavily converted models really well.

Finally back, and i painted a lot. As always, i got super busy with work, and Life, and Sundays (when i would normally blog) are taken up with catching on work.
But i have done a lot of painting since June, for a few key events.

Another couple of good weeks. Finished a 20 Block, did a pallet Cleanser and am really into the new block, having finished a bunch of them. Work is as crazy as ever and we are about to properly start plastering and painting my office so i am clearing out the room.
We finished the red king campaign and i am happy to say i am sated with Frostgrave now, having played a ton of games in the past 8 or so months.

Crazy couple of weeks, work is mental, quite a few late nights so not as much painting and we also did some actual social stuff.
I am barely at home this coming week so it will be a quiet week for painting. But I will be starting a new 20 Block this coming week.

A 2 week update this time, works been busy and IT change arounds. Got to play a couple more games of Frostgrave and so we are 4 scenarios from finishing the Red King. Its enjoyable but its a good time to finish before it gets dull.
Still keeping good progress i think, working through many models a week, and so i can keep the backlog down (other than buying new stuff).

Normal week, a full work week for me, after a few weeks of holiday, and public holidays.
Work is the same as ever, but routine is getting easier, and I am getting into the swing of things with my painting. I finished my 20 Block and have the next one ready to go.

Part of the challenge with painting is that I have heaps of stuff and from lots of ranges. If i put all my effort into painting one range or one game, one army etc, then i tend to get bored and end up looking wistfully at other models. This may mean my motivation drops off. But if i paint whatever i want, I don’t have anything finished - all my collections stay unfinished.
So this got me thinking, i want to stay motivated, i want to finish collections and I want to paint stuff that i enjoy and a variety.

With how busy life is, its likely that “weekly” updates wont be, but we will see what happens.
Since the last update, i have managed to paint quite a few things, played a game or two, built some more terrain, prepped a bunch more models, and kept things updating.

So the first WIPTW update for 2021, glad to be back into the swing of things.
A few changes from last year, as i am now mostly painting models in groups of 20, so i can always have something ready to paint, this reduces the time i spent getting ready, as i dont have much painting time at night.

I post a lot on my painting methods but i spotted on some discussion for the Blacklist minis Kickstarter that there are some total non painters who are now looking at owning over 200 models with no idea how to paint them.

So its been a while, between lockdown and work exploding, but i have still been painting… and buying stuff.
I backed the original Terrain crate and have 95% of it painted, barring a few pieces that don’t fit my stuff or are too thin to be of any use (one major issue with terrain crate).
So when the 2nd one came up i backed it straight away, especially as it covers more genres than fantasy.
In the end I got one of each crate and 2 extra boxes of things i thought i wanted more of.

/Its been a few weeks, work has been mental busy, especially once we had to get quickly ready for lockdown, which NZ has been on since the 25th of March, and we have 11 days to go (at least).
I have not done massive painting in the first few weeks but now have a good routine, and after finishing a large project am now keen to blitz through a bunch of smaller ones.
While it would be nice to update each week, this is not meant to be a chore, so if i don’t have time, so be it.
