Week 2 - Myth, Zombies and Building

It was a busy week this week. the rest of the family was away so I had time to work on my garage as well as paint. It has taken me a long time working on that garage and now I have finished the major work, next up is the sanding and painting. No pictures until it is done though!

I have finished most of the Myth models now, I just have a couple stragglers left. I am left with the expansions after that, but no need to get ahead of myself as I've only played the game once now. See below for a photo of the 17 Grubers and 6 heroes finished this week.


Further to these I also finished off the Zombicide Crows my wife got me for my birthday. These were done fairly quickly, 15 stands.


Last up I put the finishing touches on some Dystopian wars Prussians. These had been waiting a while the shrubbery flock to arrive. I will go back and finish off the others I've already done sometime soon. This is another 11 models.


All up 49 models, not bad for a weeks work!

Week 1 - Hot Out of the Gates

As with each year I have tried to launch into painting and start to build a buffer. This could have been complicated by trying to finish a batch of commission work but I managed to do some Myth board game pieces.  See the pictures below.

Commission Work



This gets my first week total up to 24. A nice start but I have a stack more prepared for next week, which should launch my total up to two months ahead. Further to that I have prepared almost all of my Forge Fathers for working on during the year. This should be enough to get me well into the year along with all the commission work I'm likely to have.

Week 52 - Last Day of the Year

It has been a bit quiet around here as I've been busy on various projects and such over the last few weeks. I've been taking the time to prepare models for the next year, work on some terrain and play some games. Overall it has been nice to have a break from painting and do something else with my spare time.

First thing in the new year will be finishing a commission I've had sitting for a while, some Age of Sigmar models and some more Hordes models. After that I have prepared some board game models to get my early numbers up and my wife has 'volunteered' me to paint some Zombicide models for a friend who got a set for Christmas. I should have over 200 models assembled and base coated already so I wont need to worry about clear weather for prep work in the near future! I've got Deadzone/Warpath, Myth, Dropzone Commander, Dropfleet Commander, Zombicide and Infinity all good to go. Odds are I will have something pique my interest in the middle of the year that needs to be painted in a hurry but at least I have a good start.
