From a painting perspective i only painted 1 model this week, but did finish 104 pieces of terrain i have been working on since Christmas. had i decided not to weather this it would have been finished weeks ago,but lessons learned.
Read MoreSome more finished models painted previously but not photographed.46 to go to catchup.
Read MoreFinally an update, got a lot painted, and im working on a bunch of terrain which has slowed me down but its nearly done.
also working on a competition piece which will be done this week.
Read MoreNo new models painted this week, am in a big terrain project that is half done so there will be a mssive update when done, but for now i have nothing done. but here is a bunch of last years models finally uploaded.
Read MoreThe first update for 2022.
Ive been on holiday since Christmas, which is a nice change from last year, but then no family members were given 3 weeks to live just before Christmas this year.
Read MoreA wrap up of 2021s painting effort and lining up for 2022.
Read MoreTrying 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.
Read MoreCrazy 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.
Read MoreFinally 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.
Read MoreAnother 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.
Read MoreCrazy 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.
Read MoreA 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).
Read MoreNormal 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.
Read MorePart 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.
Read MoreWith 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.
Read MoreSo 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.
Read MoreI 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.
Read MoreOk so its been ages since i posted, i had high hopes for posting each week but life got crazy busy last year.
So what happened last year?
Read MoreA review of the Na’Sain Shrine from Knights of Dice, what i thought of it, how it went together, how i painted it etc.
Read MoreSo 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.
