Everything, but the Servo Skulls I actually need to be doing :(

Since the Marvel Miniatures Game has been put back a couple of weeks, I'm trying to decide what model to paint next.

Since I'm following what GnS are doing - it's the Gotham City Sirens this week.

The question, which one do I paint?

I would say... is that Harley Quinn on the left? I'd say that but she looks a bit tricky, not a lot of detail there to work with in some spots, and you'd have to do checks/jester style stuff.

Got a break and made some hobby time, worked on finishing up two power armored Reclaimers for This is Not a Test. Ostensibly. I don't actually have the rules yet nor do I know if these guys are valid gear configurations. But they're meant to be post-apocalypse reclaimed/maintained power armor from before the fall.




Probably 70-90% modified space marine parts with some extensive shaving in certain areas, weapons from different ranges (eisenkern and tau guns), some eisenkern and wgf survivors pouches and canteens, and maybe one or two other bits or bobs. Tau backpacks looked about right to me. I think the helmet-less commander guy has an imperial guard head. I liked the yelling into the headset look of him.

I kind of like the regular PA trooper better, in some ways. He fits the theme a little better, with the gasmask helmet and a bit more kit, also a more subdued less OtT pospe. I did want the commander to be somewhat of a badass with a power fist and laser rifle, I just wish space marine legs weren't so squatty. He'd probably look better with assault marine running legs, and given that I'll probably only ever do half a dozen of these guys.. I may order some and switch him before paint.. we'll see.

Yup, that's Harley, Poison Ivy and Catwoman.

And yeah, she is super tiny... *SUPER* tiny... At least the checks are kinda moulded onto it, ish...

I'm just putting the finishing touches on my Stormsurge. I've gotten most of it assembled, only the highlighting on the gun remains as far as actual painting.

Remembered that I had a single solitary set of assault/running marine legs.



I think they help him out a lot, not nearly as short or squat now.

First game of 7th edition 40k. We'll see how this goes!

I Find that i you don't mind the complex special rules its ok, i prefer it to sixth

Going to try to figure out how to paint marble for bases. If I like it, might do all of my 30k Ultras on marble bases.

Yoof is about for the weekend, and apart from taking a shine to a neighbours daughter... He wanted a display board for his Airfix Afghanistan 1:48 models, so not knowing what to do with this had a google search and found the excellent Matakeshi's Teahouse site, head scratch later, trip to Wikes for some supplies and we now have this beauty.



Walls made from cork floor tiles, which I'm now sold on as being vastly better for this sort of thing than foam core, indeed for anything with a surface texture needed. few bits of coffee staring stick for the lintels, matchsticks for the doors, a resin cast of a bit of rock that I have had laid around for ages and glad to finally have found a home for, sand/rock scatter and cheap emulsion and job done.

Also had a small game of Bolt Action as yoof wanted to see how it played, my Americans have now played two games, and lost two games. a record remarkable like a good many of my armies really. Fun game as long as you don't take it seriously.

All in all a productive weekend.

Going to finish up another deffkopta. The AoS models take a surprising amount of time to paint.

Working on my 2nd FW Nightwing Interceptor

Primed the following for my Cygnar:
PNemo
Lancer
Stormclad
JWC
Squire
Strangewayes
3xStorm Pods
Aiyana and Holt
Tactical Arcanist Squad

Also did major needed repair work on my Stormwall.

I finished scratch building the major parts of 3 fishy ork tanks : D

Game went well. As it turned out, my Bloodthirster loves to crump monstrous creatures in CC! One hit killed a Hive Tyrant (ally grounded it), munched a couple carnifexes in a single blow, and some Khorne princes ate up other big Gribblies. Gotta love the Axe of Khorne!!

Took my collection of classic genestealers out of mothballs and gave a Fresh base coat to them as well as some new industrial themed bases.

After a long dormancy the cult is awakening...

When painting tonight this just went through my mind constantly..

Finished the Stormsurge! Pics are in my Stormsurge blog (sorry, shameless plug there!). Now I'm going to take a break from painting for a little while, and maybe assemble the rest of my Pathfinders.

Bought some paint racks, somewhat managed my 'workspace', added some basecolors to Bloodsecrator and got a small lecture about non metallics from a pro.

And, actually, that was yesterday, but I was too bloody tired to do anything else, but to go and sleep for 12 hours

Final touches on my Nightwing Interceptor:

waiting on the bases to dry on my dungeon saga undead, then a quick wash on a few of them, and they'll be done

Cast another 50 something bases last weekend... and ordered 15ft of Kneadatite. *Cackles Maniacally*

Once I get back home, i'll be finishing my rough rider's and mordion iron guard's. Maybe creed might be painted too

I can't even imagine 15' of the stuff.

Putting together some Devastator Centurions in a feeble attempt to make my UM into something resembling a semi-competitive army

I'll take a picture of the 300 something bases I'm casting for my Asur when I am done.

Hopefully it'll be done within the month, as I have only learned last weekend that you can mix kneadatite sooo much faster if you dip it for a minute or so in warm water....
And I can now also cast 36 bases in one sitting and I also got my second oyumaru batch in late last week.

Doing the Castigators sword In a red/lava type scheme, and then I'll work on all the gold trim on him.

If I'm extra good maybe I'll even start free handing the stars and scythes.

I converted 10 Tankbusta's and they look like that are having a party.
Can't wait for them to pop some tanks : D

Going to start on my Frostgrave warband.

Ogres, I decided to do the bizarre thing and have no games workshop or mantic stuff as neither seem to fit the narrative I have.
(I like Mantic of course, and their ogres but I had an idea and it needs to have extreme model individuality).
There is a Mordhiem Ogre however and a Heroquest Ogre... did GW own Heroquest?)...Two I have no idea of the origins (probably some board game as they have weird hex bases and feel like Reaper's Bones).
