No painting progress the last few weeks. It has been pretty busy in that time so to keep things going I took some fresh photos and posted them to the gallery. I will try and do this whenever I don't have new models to show. Eventually that will bring the gallery up to date.
I have been putting more models together, trying to set myself up for next year a bit. I have some commission models on my desk that I need to get finished, hopefully I will have some time next week.

Week 41 - A New Game in Town
With all the push last week to finish my Halo stuff for playing I didn't realise I was only 2 models away from completing my goal for the year... So I went ahead and painted a bunch of models for Dropfleet Commander! I've completed the ship bodies for 3 cruisers and completed 1 cruiser, 4 frigates and 2 void gates. Once I've played a couple games I will settle on which weapons I want for the cruisers and finish them off. This leaves me just one void gate short of having a playable starter set, which I wasn't able to fit on my spray painting jig. I have 5 more Shaltari to go before I have completed all I have. Then I can either start on my Scourge or wait for KnightWolf's pledge to arrive and get the rest of my stuff. Picture below.
For the rest of the year I will be working on various projects, finishing off some of those stragglers from my to do list and commissions that have been progressing slowly. I have been using my 3D printer again, making floor tiles and walls. And a pretty sweet stargate (that took about 10 hours to print!) so I hope to keep on doing those. It is going to take forever to get enough for a table and I will need heaps more filament but I don't have any pressing stuff to make on the printer, so why not?

Week 40 - UNSC Fleet Reporting
It took a bit of effort but I managed to complete all of my UNSC for Halo this week, 52 models all up. I went for a battle worn white scheme, simple but looks good at a distance. Picture below.
We got a game in this week, it plays quite nicely. The usual Spartan Games mechanics are in there, the exploding dice are kept under control though by preventing adding more dice. This makes the big ships really hard to take down without concentrated fire. Every ship base has 3 hit points which makes the number of tokens on the board nice and small. We played an intro game which skipped some features, we will add them in as we play a bit more.
