Didn't quite get as far as I wanted, but given that I'm on borrowed time: So calling it done. Thanks for the amnesty. :-(

Asha: Robot Rocket Miniatures: Scale: 1:10



The plinth doesn't have the final coat as I'm going to be going back and fixing mistakes after and there's no point in painting the base if I'm going to be handling it a lot. :-(

Given the extension, I took the opportunity to finish the bases, touch up a few things and take better pics.

Paint! Paint has been applied to a miniature for the first time since before Christmas... Still can't really see what I'm doing, and it's hardly up to my usual standards, but thanks to the community's generosity in extending the deadline (and some 5x magnification lenses) it looks like my streak doesn't end here after all!

Pics tomorrow, so that's when I'll officially call this to a close. Goad a few more of you were able to get entries in as well

Aye Para we will drag you kicking and screaming into the Century of the Fruitbat ..... or at least the end of the challenge

Glad you were able to get your entry in Excommunicatus, nicely done with the highlights

Ok, I'm calling it. There are only so many times I can redo the cloack and time really should be up for this challenge for those of us not stricken like Paradigm.

Will take a couple more shots tomorrow with better lighting.




Also, well done everyone. Only had time to glance, but there's some great stuff here.

Here we go then. About as far from clumsy and random as you can get with Stormtroopers, which might not be much but it just about fits and white on black is easy enough to do with crap vision. Took me about twice as long as it ordinarily would, but it felt so good to finally be productive and put paint to plastic. Thanks once again to everyone who pushed me to get this done, it was much-needed motivation.




And with that, we'll call it a wrap. Give me a couple of days and I'll try and get the vote sorted.

Half blind and pressed for time, and you still manage a top notch mini.

Great to see you still in the game!

Better pics:



I know the part of the cloak furthest to the left in the rear view may look unfinished, but it's the darker colour because it's actually part of the cloak lining which has billowed out and around the model. It's maybe a little difficult to see that.



Para, it's ridiculous that that's your quality of work while half blind.
