Good job on the little people. Great work on the shields.

Most important thinks first: Thanks Dr H for the compliments.

OK, now the backlog.
Yes, I have been adsent here for quite a long time. Was busy with lots ans lots of things (and still am in some way).
For example I was applying for a new job near the part of Germany where I grew up. Did not work out ... for the good as I can say now after some time of reflection. Long story.

So much on that. What was done on the hobby side?

Godslayer

Well, the Bloodvargs got finished and got a bit of company in a Chainslayer.



More pictures of them can be counf in my blog:

In case you are interested here are two WIP stages of the Chainslayer:



Those three were my Febuary package for the paiting project I was working one.
In April I tried to do another Godslayer block but It did not work out. Well, now I have a WIP Valkyrie and some Kinswords standing around. ^^
Nevertheless I did manage to paint a lot of stuff during this project. Picture comes below.



I also bought some second hand Banebrood of a friend and gave them new basing and bid of other additions.
To you this means you get the chance to see some "chaos" stuff here in the future.



Armalion / The Dark Eye stuff

March block of my painting project consisted of a few of my old Armalion / The Dark Eye figures.



More pictures can be found again in my blog:

Here I also have a few WIP shots for you:



Result of painting project

This all leaves my with an - by rules - unsuccesful painting project but nevertheless a lot of newly paintied minis.



Other stuff done

That's not all I have done during the last months.

I worked on a little present for a (female) collague: a wireless tin can phone. (long background story)



On the third picture you can see "Nurse Kitty" giving advice on some helpful phone number (general emergency number, anonym alcoholics hotline, my office number, etc ).
For a bit more details you can have a look here: https://pfiek.wordpress.com/2015/05/01/peter-bastelt-schnurloses-dosentelefon/

One evening (or was is two?) I did a small basing experiment for one of my SAGA models: https://pfiek.wordpress.com/2015/02/17/saga-eine-base-fur-den-viking-warlord/



We also should not forget the container building experiment I did.
Nice and easy way to cheap containers in my eye, but have a look yourself: https://pfiek.wordpress.com/2015/05/09/gelandebau-container-2-0/



But my favourite project in the last weeks was this little diorama based on a Reaper Bones figure. Who said the figures are bad?
Yes, they have there flaws (fingers on the left hand for example), but I think they are still quite OK. Especially for their low price.



WIPs available as well:



Current projects

For sure I did not stop working.

My Winged Harbinger still wants to get finished but had to be put aside in favour of the other stuff shown above.



As mentioned before the Valkyrie for my Nordgaard in partially done. The proxy for my second Fjellgangr is started as well. OK, only got skin base color so far.



Next up we have a "little" Space Marine that wants to get painted. I'm thinking about revising the idea for my custom chapter. A few things turned out not so great and since not that many models are painted by now...



And because I'm more in a diorama mood at present I have two additional candidates for that topic: Frank Miller's Batman and some Trollbloods warlock (or so).



So much for now.
Was a bit. Wasn't it?

Welcome back to this corner of the internet.

Nice selection of stuff to come back with too.

Good to see you back, looks like you have been very busy.
