Glad to see you back Carlos, glad things are alright.

Looking forward to your pics

Hey mate - great to see you back here and even better to hear that things are picking up a bit.

Gonna make an effort to pick up a paint brush this weekend. Will be the first time in months. Been really busy so don't get much time.

Dooo eeeet!

Welcome back, dude. I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Grab that brush by the handle and hold on tight!

EDC

Last time was kinda of a false start. However I have broken out the brushes again and started practice on something easy #(Zombicide Zombies.) The new girlfriend is even getting involved and helping me crack through the box.

Hope you are all well.

Welcome back. I look forward to seeing what you have been working on.

Cheers mate

How have you been?

Doing fine, staying busy. I had to intervene when our dogs started fighting, and ended up with stitches in my painting hand, so that's slowed me down somewhat.

That sucks mate, hope you heal up soon.

I may have torn the ligaments in my non painting hand while doing judo. So we can start some kind of club.

We can call ourselves the Temporarily Crippled Gamers' Alliance.

Sounds like a plan.

Managed to put a bit of paint on some Zombicide zombies and the dwarf character today before the hand hurt too much. Not a whole lot of progress but progress is progress. Also found a 40k ork stashed among other stuff and felt like painting it so started on that fella too.

Not much and nothing finished but its a start.

Sounds good. It's always good to find something you want to (rather than feel obligated to) paint.

Making slow one handed progress on Zombicide batch painting this week.

Slow progress is still progress. They look good so far.

Thanks Mate.

Gonna do a bit more tonight. Wanna finish the box set in the next few months.

Good stuff. Nice job with the colour palette, it took me a second to realise those big chaps were duplicates.

Cheers mate, trying to mix it up so they don't all look too alike.

Drafted the GF in to help paint the horde.

They need matt varnish and blood but these are done now.

I may be getting thoughts about an Inquisition themed force for 40k with the Eisenhorn miniature coming out later this month.

So that might get worked on after zombicide, also picked up the Start collecting Skitari box to go with it.

Great looking progress on those Zombiciders. They'll look great once dullcoated and bloodied up!

Im a firm believer that when batch painting zombies blood can cover a lot of mistakes.

Yay zombehs!

Also looking to paint up an Inquisition band at the same time. No idea if playable but thats fine.

Means I can break out the odd random models I have, like an imperial guard solider, and a catachan sniper and paint them up together. Also gonna buy the Eisenhorn model later this month.

Progress / to do pile featuring Skelitor

That's a very interesting mix of models. Don't you find it difficult to batch paint so many different things at once?

Zombicide is the priority atm. The others are nearby or in the queue for when I get bored of the Zombicide stuff and want to mix things up.

Yeah, it's just good getting the full Zombicide set done. Can't play with a half-painted set! Looking very good so far. Good balance between nice looks and getting it all done within a reasonable amount of time.

Cheers mate. I've nearly finished two more survivors leaving me around 10-15 models short of finishing the box. With the GF chipping in on the zombies I am aiming for an end of march finish.

Got a ligament injury in my left hand so right now I am happy with something looking ok and being done rather than trying to actively improve my painting.

However when my hand gets better looking forward to trying something in a whole new scale.



That fella came through the door today.
