Continued painting the GW Plasma Regulator kit.

I'm losing all of my good paint brushes apparently. And possibly my mind.

Also painting snow cadians

Continued painting the GW Plasma Regulator kit. Also pulled out some more Eldar weapons that I could use an alternatives and swaps.

Cheers,

CB

Painting heads and thoroughly enjoying it.
Also, I bought a Redemptor Dreadnaught.

I did it. I finished every GW model in the house during Shelter in Place. It took months but I'm out of plastic.

Now what in the heck am I supposed to do?

Well, you mentioned finishing the GW stuff.
Do you have things from other companies?

Keep on working on lumineth. Good thing i have holiday. Dawnriders have so many details that despite them looking done except shields still 20 or so steps. Before shields...

Assembled the Glaivewraiths from mortal realms magazine 4 and grabbed some of the leftover Issue 1s to round myself off at a grand 120 Chainrasps all up. 80 assembled for now.

Continued painting the GW Plasma Regulator kit. Added transfers to two FW Wave Serpents and sealed.

Just the warcaster pledge. Its great looking stuff but I hate putting metal models together. I'm debating if I'm going to do them or just wait to see if an actual game comes up

Researching Horus Heresy-era companies of Chaos Marines for a one-off paint job.

Putting pools/splashes of blood on a base.

Kit bashing some kasrkin troopers with the newish scions and cadian rebreather heads along with the standard cadian flak vest.
Found a bag on metal kasrkin in my to do stash. Sadly one trooper is missing so knocking up a Sargent out of some bits to round off a Small squad of troopers.

Completed 10 dawnriders so all my lumineth done just in time for new ones. Ride on saturday!

Working on some more Eldar weapon alternatives.

Painting heads and playing with blood.

(Draft for an RPG.net review)

Introduction: What's future-retro and full of rust? Why, it's Tiny Furniture's "Junk cart". This post-apoc miniature has the back half of a 1950's car (maybe an Edsel?) and two construction beams to pull it around. Perfect for a game of Fallout or any other post-apocalyptic game. The deck lid of the trunk has been removed, and a big pile of retro-future junk is there, too. This is a multi-piece miniature, with a removable junk pile so you can have an empty junk cart, or put something else in it. Thematically, you will probably want the car and junk rusted, which would make the miniature best for intermediate painters. Beginning painters, of course, can easily paint this miniature, if they prefer to give it a brown wash instead of rust effects. The miniature has pretty much no mold lines, and assembly is easy. Both unpainted and painted versions are available.

The miniature has multiple pieces: two construction beams that serve as handles, the back half of a 1950's car that serves as the back of the car, two different pairs of tires (you only need one for the cart, so the other two can be used as junk or attached to the handles), and a removable block of various retro pieces of junk. The block of junk can be turned around. The junk pile junk are, from most noticable to details : a car door, a tire, a suitcase, a gas can, some gas cylinders, a futuristic case, wooden chests, and some bottles. That's a lot of detail, all of it future-restro-istic. The pieces fit together easily. In the pictures, I just use putty.

I get it. I personally hate painting but wont play with unpainted.
Don’t want to spend money having stuff painted either so I am stuck.

Bought a Deep Cuts minotaur today. Already cut his sword away, green-stuffed his back and glued him to a base.
For $15, it beats the $33 plus shipping an actual bb minotaur would cost.

Did a little work on some more Eldar weapon alternatives.

Cheers,

CB

Assembled 20 sentinels, teclis and most of endless spells.

10 sentinel, 10 warden and final assembly of twinstones left tomorrow and then i can play 2k game

Finishing up this Deep Cuts Minotaur to use for my Chaos BB team. Other than matching his base to the team, putting on a number and possibly working on his horns a little more, he's pretty much finished.

Upgraded my gripping beast dismounted teutonic knights with some putty.
Modified a helm to look a tad more realistic(basically modified it from a 'Ned Kelly' pattern great helm into an acceptable 12th-14th century helm), gave the only bloke who wasn't wearing a helm, a helm(safety first lads, awesomeness second, and great helms are protective and awesome ) and removed some crests styles I had duplicates of with new ones(namely 2fan style crests and a feathered winged style and a buffalo horns) for a bit of variety.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Finished off modeling my valentine battle tank turrets too.

This evening was pretty busy.
Assembled a bunch of GSC HQ/character types (basically one of everything in those categories)
Assembled 15 assorted Germans for Bolt Action.
Assembled about another 12 random non-GW figures that've been building up in my "build box".
And finally, assembled one of the new plastic A10 Thunderbolts for Team Yankee.

Did a little work on some more Eldar weapon alternatives.

Work continues on lumineth.

Also started assembling pile of unopened　lotr blisters. Galadriel, riders of dead, suladan, that sort of random mix. Have box overflowing with these.

Just received and started working on my Eldar Way Gate.

Cheers,

Red letter day for me today. I am putting varnish on my most recent work of space marines. First time in 10 years that I am happy enough with my work to encase it in hard coat. Hope fully one of many more to varnish up before the winter puts a damper on varnishing.

Working on sanding down the Way Gate.

Cheers,

CB

Assembling some Lumineth.
Started with a pair of Scinari Cathallers.

Still going through boxes of miniatures looking for Orks. Each time I spend a few hours searching, find one Ork and a whole bunch of space marines. It’s like my hobby has become emulating GWS release schedule.

Made a proper start on my Indomitus Chaplain for this month's painting challenge. No lamps as I've just moved which makes it hard to do anything!
