Mostly finished (besides basing) three of my Angaran Chronicles soldiers. A human, the sergeant, and an elf and dwarf. Quite happy with them so far! Maybe I shouldn't have used washes, as they are far too glossy. I tried to use my Mod Podge "Matte" varnish to try to make the dwarf less glossy, but it seems to have done the opposite. I showed him to my Dad, and he said he was a bit less glossy than the elf and human, so tired another layer. I hope when it dries more, it'll be less glossy. I based the sergeant on an old fella in my town who has such an awesome moustache it isn't funny, lol.

I wanted to finish three more Angaran Chronicles soldier minis but only managed to mostly finish two. But that's five out of ten, with one that's pretty much base-painted, so that's cool.

Didn't do much today, just fixed up one of my soldier's faces as I accidentally got some Nuln Oil on it and began painting the face of another one as well as a few other things.

Finished the 6th mini of my Angaran Chronicles soldier squad and began base painting two more. It's feeling like it's dragging a bit now, in all honesty. We also had the kids' gaming club today. We finished the game of Assassinorum: Execution Force and the kids played a quick 2v2 game of Grimdark Future: Firefight 300pts. It was not-Gaunt's Ghosts vs Attelus' Elite Team. It was my characters from Secret War vs characters from my favourite book series. Attelus' team won, quite handily too. They had fun.

Here are some photos of the Angaran Chronicles soldiers so far! Much better lighting now!

Tonight I need to paint a Medusa from my Archons Court.
It punched a landraider to death in melee.

Because i paint so slowly I have a running joke that my models need to "earn thier paint". So they have to do something notable in play.
Well, I guess punching the last wound off a LR with just a combat weapon qualifies....

Much to my pleasant surprise, I managed to finish a 7th Angaran Chronicles soldier. This one is an elf with a shotgun. He looks alright. I'm surprised as I'm tired as frig, and while I would've liked to do more, but intended to do less. So, yeah, I don't know what I'm on about, lol.

Well after being gone for most of February I'm back to get some painting done! What did I do in this case?





Decided to do something a bit different and paint up some Battletech.. Tried Contrast paints, worked mostly okay but the Yellow didn't come out how I wanted to I had to add extra highlights. But overall I'm happy with how it came out.

I spent too much time making a new list to playtest my Angaran Chronicles: The Skirmish Game. To mostly playtest horde vs horde combat, hordes made up of multiple different races and weapons. I also painted an 8th Angaran Chronicles soldier and fixed up another mini version of Anargrin, which I wish to send to my friend as a gift.

Finished and based my Angaran Chronicles soldier minis and based Anargrin. These are the minis I want to use for my Angaran Chronicles: The Skirmish Game. The "good guys" are led by Anargrin and Raleas (the sniper chick), the main characters of my novel series. The soldiers will be split into two five-man fire teams.

also planning for further painting on the Easterlings I used as quite obviously poor performance is down to only being part painted and not their commander in any way shape or form

Yesterday it was the miniature gaming club for the kids. They played Grimdark Future: Firefight 2v2 300pts of Human Defence Force (Not-Imperial Guard) with a Custodian Blade Acolyte and 300pts of Orc Marauders (Ork Kommandoes) vs Alien Hives Soul Snatchers (Genestealers) and Elven Jesters (Harlequins) The poor Soul Snatchers and Elven Jesters lost pretty handily the Soul Snatchers being tabled completely. The poor kid playing them had terrible luck with his dice rolls. At the start an Ork Kommando ran near the middle of the map and somehow managed to survive the charges of three separate Genestealers without suffering any damage at all, somehow and managed to kill at least one by himself, then another with the help of another. It stopped the Genestealers dead and that was one of the big reasons they lost.

Today I made a new miniature carrier with a plastic container with double sided squares on the bottom. It worked out pretty well. I also base painted one of my Gaunt's Ghosts proxies after priming them. I also made more Grimdark Future: Firefight lists for the kids to play, printed out a couple but my printer has decided it has a paper blockage despite there being none.
