Week 29 - Productive Procrastination

So I have 99% finished my terrain competition entry, I just have a final little finishing touch for the buildings. As a result I won't post pictures of the final products today, I will take photos of everything together at the competition instead. The competition was postponed another week (to tomorrow,) giving me time to finish... Yay.

As the post title suggests I wasn't exactly focussed these last two weeks. I do find it funny that I was procrastinating hobby stuff by finishing other hobby stuff. For my efforts I have finished up the two sentry guns for my Deadzone Enforcers, the rest of a Plague starter (also for Deadzone) and a prototype for my Human Dreadball team. Photos are below.





This means that I have finished two more goals this month. Which isn't too bad for just over half way through the year, in my opinion anyway! Behind the scenes I have been working away on the other goals; I have assembled and undercoated the rest of my Haqqislam models, been assembling the rest of my Dreadball models and assembling the rest of Kirais crew. I still hope to finish these goals by the end of the year and so far I think it is still possible. The Dreadball models will be the real test...

Week 27 - Making Buildings

Just a quick post today. I have spent the week sorting out terrain for the Malifaux board, including stacks of barrels, wagons, gravel and a pair of buildings. The buildings are cracking along, the small one was knocked out yesterday while the other has taken most of the week to get to its current state. The small one is complete, there are just some details to do, most will be added during the painting process. The large one has some work to do on the roof, details to add and a balcony to go on.


A quick look at the terrain competition reminder has it being judged in a weeks time, not two, as I originally thought. So I have to finish and paint these next week. Possible, but a bit of a challenge. It is going to be a busy week!
