Been bit by the black dog again so have been laid off work for a week and grabbed some old guard stuff to go through to at least occupy my mind or try anyway.
Can’t see me getting much done mind but hell anything is better than literally going crazy.

Because it's nice weather today, I'll be working on finishing my gaming table outside. Perhaps I'll even get around to painting the frame!

(Rough draft for a review on RPG.net. More Tiny Furniture Reviews : https://www.rpg.net/reviews/search-review.phtml?productCompany=tiny+furniture&orderby=category&showinfo=publisher
Tiny Furniture's "Guillotine" is a multi-piece set, including guillotine, basked, and unfortunate man's head. The miniature may be purchased by itself, or as part of Tiny Furniture's "The Execution Day" set, which includes "1) Gallows and Scaffold, 2) Executioner axe and chopping block, 3) Guillotine, 4) Pillory, 5) Torturer". Both the "Guillotine" and "The Execution Day" miniatures may be purchased unpainted or painted.
Like Tiny Furniture's other miniatures, their guillotine miniature has great details, even having a rope and tie down the side, pulley atop the blade, and various metal fasteners. The platform, where the victim would be lain down, is a single piece, rather than hollow, making it less likely to break apart. Assembly is pretty easy. You can even use putty (with superglue) to put the miniature together, if you wish to take it apart after play for safer storage.

Assembled a AoS Arch-Revenant for the Sylvaneth.
Beautiful sculpt. But holy gak. This things got detail under detail under more detail.... It's worse than my Fyre Slayers. Ordinarily I'd grudgingly paint each "layer" of a mini like this, then build/paint the next layer. But it'll be quite some time until I get around to properly painting it & I need it on the table in the very near future. So for now it's assembled, primed, & soon to be base coated - and there'll just come a day when painting it is that much more difficult.
I did magnetize its zephyrspite wings though.
That way when I sacrifice them to negate a killing blow the model can reflect that. Also helps with storage.

Broken out the mili-putt again and am upgrading my gripping beast dismounted teutonic knights with some plated protection to bring them firmly into the early 14th century.
Bracers (forearm) polyens (elbows) and a mix of pretty small pauldrons/ailettes (boards strapped tied over the shoulder that display heraldry).

Put in some serious work on my monthly competition entry. Finished all the gold NMM on his armor, finished his cape. Just need to paint his power sword and a couple of minute details here and there.
Oh, and base him. More tomorrow!

Nice. You made a lot more progress than I have. Your Lumineth look really good.
Me, I have spent the last couple week building my Lumineth army. Not featured in the photo below is the additional Stone Guard with picks to get them up to a unit of 10.
I think this weekend I am going to try and finish Avalenor and a Spirit of the Mountain model. Which just leaves me 5 more Dawn Riders and Teclis to build. I started Avalenor tonight, but like almost everything else in the Lumineth model line, it's being rather aelven to build.
Part of me thought maybe I should have done the Spirit of the Mountain first, but I figured I would do a better job during the first build plus I could swap out any parts I ding up during the build. Those ribbons around the legs. Broken part of one removing it from the sprue. Tried the other kit and manged to finesse it off only to again break part of the ribbon cleaning the nub. It glued on well enough, but imagine it is only a matter time that it breaks in a game and I lose it completely.
They are really nice models though.

Would you believe... Medieval toilets?
(Rough draft for an RPG.net review. More more Tiny Funiture reviews, see : https://www.rpg.net/reviews/search-review.phtml?productCompany=tiny+furniture&orderby=category&showinfo=publisher
Tiny Furniture's "Medieval Castle Toilets" is a three-piece resin miniatures set, consisting of a one-piece stone toilet, and a two-piece wooden toilet with a cover. (If you want a fancier chamberpot, look at the Noble's Bedroom.) Tiny Furniture miniatures have an incredible level of detail, and these miniatures are no exception. The wood has wood grain throughout, visible at at tabletop distance. The cover of the wood toilet fits just fine. You can distinguish the individual stones, as well as see the texture. You could also use the wood toilet as a small tub, but that might be a little gross. Although these are based on castle toilets, they can be used in any wooden structure, such as an inn, or stone one. The miniature comes in both an unpainted and painted version. Tiny Furniture also sells an outhouse.

I got a couple of beefs against Chaos now.
Just finished and primed my battle cattle and plan to undercoat them tomorrow. I also started my second set of Dawn Riders. They got some healthy mold lines on them that my first set didn't. So they may take awhile. I'll see how far I get through the week, but if I'm not close to finishing I might work on Teclis instead. That would complete my entire Lumineth army for model building.
