Completed my 15th Five Parsecs Encounter and 16th Campaign Turn. My Crew are very strong now, and I might start using Elite enemies soon.

Did a little more paint work on my random Orc.

Prepping a D&D scenario/adventure - that honestly might never get used.

About to prime/base coat my 3rd party Tomb Scorpions.

Finishing some Imperial Guard models, ready for agrax earthshade wash stage, and then packing them ready for my painting evening at FLGS tomorrow.

Played the PVP version (with some tweaks) of Five Parsecs from Home with the kids. It went well, and the kids enjoyed it! Also did some painting of my 2nd Samus Aran statue.

Painting some of the new marauders, or attempting to.

Color coding the bases of my HH Marines.

Probably do the metallics and rivets on the other two Rhinos, leaving the wash for tomorrow, and red for Friday.

These are done

Wee small hours of Saturday.

Finished the three Rhinos couple of hours ago, leaving my weekend free to do the Cataphractii and Landraider Proteus. And when they’re done? I’ve no more 28mm Heresy to paint!

Cleaning and gluing zombie hands to my FF zombies.

A whole bunch of things I ordered were delivered today including a Mantic Deadzone Gunship and drop ship. I mostly assembled the drop ship, I don't know why Mantic don't have instructions with their kits, would've saved me some time assembling it, but it was a good work out for the brain, I guess. I also made more progress on my Samus Aran Zero suit statue.

Finishing these tower finally!

Finished a pair of old metal Harlequin Warlocks.

Cheers,

Building a trio of Mantic Ver-meen tunnlers.

I could've spent $155 on 1 FW Termite.
Or for around $120 I could get a trio of decent enough Termite proxies & save myself the joy of dealing with many resin parts.

Finished assembling the drop ship and the gun ship. I primed the gun ship, but dropped the uhh "drop ship" while priming it, it broke into its separate parts, also got crap through stuck in the wet primer, so had to get that out. I also did more work on my Samus statue, began doing the hard part, painting her skin.

Did the Landraider Proteus yesterday. Today, I tackle the Cataphractii Terminators.

There’s a lot of edgy metallicy details on these, so no idea how long they’re gonna take. But there’s some chance I can blitz them out today.

Got some of the extra details primed from my various vehicle kits. Got a few other details painted (some HKMs and Heavy Stubbers). When I get home this morning I'll start work on Leontus and the Battle Cannon Russ turret. And with their completion I will finally have a fully painted wysiwyg army for the first time since 2016.

Finishing up a Sci-Fi project. With clear coat and final touches.
I have a box of Mantic marionette (10 plus drones) and a box of Mantic pathfinders (10 plus dog drones). Plus a load of 3D printed scatter terrain.

Now on to some scratch build terrain so that I can play Sci-Fi skirmish games like Deadzone and Space Station Zero.

Going insane.

As I realise just how much Necromunda terrain I have in need of painting. This is but a fraction of it.

Started drawing shapes on plastic card and then cutting them out to make more Necromunda towers.

Cheers,

Working on some beastmen who haven't seen a touch of paint in nearly ten years.

Painted a few more details on my random D&D orc.

Then I put some paint on a squad of Assault Intercessors for KT.
Nothing too extreme - just a bit of black on joints/hoses/straps, painted the holsters/pouches, painted the teeth of the chainswords, then theSgt bionic arm, & finally the exposed flesh on the Sgt head.
No idea what chapter I'm going to make them, so no armor work yet.

Later tonight I think I'll do thier grenades, eyes, & finish the sgts head.

I'll finish the day by experimenting with painting a HH era Deathguard.

It was yesterday, but I dry brushed the Gun ship and made more progress in Samus Aran. I'm happy with how she's turning out and it seems like it from a happy accident.

Heh, my HH DG test piece didn't exactly end up the HH stained white/lite green.

But I think it turned out well enough considering:
1) the poor mini I'm starting with (90% of my DG are this crappy {though free!} sculpt.
2) I'm not aiming for show quality. Just not the overly super grimy/gross scheme alot of DG players seen to go for.
3)easily replicated on the his 55 other brothers....

I am continuing my Conquistador/ Landsknecht Imperial Guard army..building them up one squad at a time due to sourcing bits and the heavy conversion work. I just got the power cables from Zinges Industries so I can finally get the squad ready for prime and paint.

I like him.

Going through some boxes seeing if there are any projects I want to get done. Found an Albion Giant, probably going to properly strip and clean it for assembly.

Got all my main base layers on my Tabletop World blacksmith and cottages. Next step is overbrushing to pull them all together.

Also I won an auction for a group of Braganza's Besiegers, so my goal of adding them to my eventual Bretonnian Exile army continues!

Link for people who don't recall them.

Now working on vintage Plague Marine #4/6 for a KT squad.
I'll finish this guy tonight, #5 tomorrow evening, their guns Thur - Sat, & then their leader early next week. Wed I'll do their basing.

Come Thur I'll put the squad into action.

It'll be my 1st completely finished force since 2020.
