She is rather nice

-----------------------------

I have even more Batman minis today, I seem to be really bashing these guys out for some reason.

First up is Deathstroke, really enjoyed painting his blues its not a colour I've really painted that much so was a nice change.



Then we have the Militia for the Scarecrow crew, wasn't so keen on these guys not really impressed with the models but they came out nicely I think in the end



I cant say I've painted camo before either, it didn't come out that well but will be fine!

Thanks Azazelx they have been fun to paint so far, very different to what I'm used to which is always good.

Cheers Solar I really like how he came out


I should have Hush finished this weekend coming, just need to do his base.

I'm currently considering entering a Bolt Action tournament at the end of Jan but I don't have any models or rules at the moment, not sure if I will go ahead yet or not but if I do there will be loads of Germans coming soon. I've also ordered the new Chaos Space marine supplement which I'm really looking forward to, my CSM's will be good again totally amazing , might mean some more 40k minis at some point.

Lots on the list as well, I want to do a 30k army at some point as well prob either T Sons or Wolves or both I cant decide

Its quite odd I buy loads of minis for skirmish games but no one plays them in my area, I find the larger games are such a money eater as I only play a few times a year.

Lovely stuff, and good to see you've embraced the real leader of a Scarecrow crew although he's much better post-FAQ. Hush is ace, I usually run him with Ivy myself as she's a bit of fragile blossom (even if she does have the single most powerful Special ability in the game).
Move to Glasgow, we're skirmish-happy

Liking Poison Ivy, very nice work.

Crew and ninja dude are looking cool too, the blue and orange is a great combo.

Its fun you mention that about Hush as I picked him up to go with Ivy

Glasgow's like a million miles away from me!

And here he is Hush himself, not much going on with him in terms of colours I seem to be painting all the darker models recently apart from Ivy





On other news the new CSM Traitor Legion supplement is really cool, it got me building some Death Guard Raptors today so that cant be bad



They need a lot more work yet!

Not sure if the Bolt Action stuff will be going ahead now, I think I'm going to busy over Christmas and I'm really interested in bringing my CSM armies upto date now

Also, I rather like these Knight Models. The only thing that I don't like is that they're metal.

I don't mind metal to be honest as I long as it doesn't have mold slippage... looks at huntress model

---------------------------------

Ok so this will prob be my last update of the year, I hope you all had a good Christmas and got lots of new toys

I've managed to squeeze out a few more Batman minis before I go back to work tomorrow.

First is the lovely Talia Al Ghul





And then we have Killer Frost





And I also have a picture of all the Batman miniatures I've painted so far minus Batwoman as I gave her away!



The focus is a little off but you get the idea

There's still more to come, I've just finished two ninjas but wont have any daylight until next year to take pics now.



These are the remaining undercoated minis for Batman, this was taken before today though so you will have to mentally remove a few I've also got the Suicide box and Huntress but they require priming which is the bane of my life at winter.

So normally I do a what I've accomplished and new goals around this time of year but as some of you are aware this year as been and is still continuing to be a nightmare for me. So I'm totally skipping that part of the hobby! I'm only painting what takes my interest, I have no goals for armies old or new at the moment its just having stuff to paint to get me through. So without a plan I have now ended up with a most bizarre collection of primed minis to take me through the winter period

As I say I've got some more Batman minis as above and the I have whats in my primed box



Yeah I told you it was a bit random! So in there we have two fleets for Man o War Dark Elf and Nurgle, some Darklands minis mainly snake women, some Black Templars and some other random bits and bobs.

Then we have the stuff that doesn't fit in the box

Some pointy Wood Elves for my KoW army



Some big monsters for Darklands



And a very large FW dragon that I'll be using for KoW



Plus of course so many models to put together its scary

So there we go thats what I have to keep me going for the next few months until its warm enough to prime, then I'll get the rest of the Batman minis ready to paint.
