Scenery

Intending to make some scenery this weekend. Photocopied a load of templates from ancient White Dwarfs and dug out all my foamboard.

Now I just need to work up the motiviation to actually do it.

Five Orks Nearly Done!

Wheeee! Just a bit of detail work left to do!

Then onto the next five!

No pictures though, my PC has decided it cannot read the SD card from me camera and I've lost the USB widget.

A Little Tidy Up II - The Quickening

Okay, the painting area was tidied up... and then untidied again to accommodate all the little trinkets, gewgaws and nicknacks discovered whilst tidying the spare room.

It is now tidy again.

Now I just need to attain sufficent motivation to actually paint something.

A Little Tidy Up

Lamp is still in Iszy's possession... so I'm going to tidy the painting area and set out all the stuff I'll need so at least it's ready for when I get my lamp back.

Slight Fail

Iszy needs my anglepoise lamp for her college work.

Bum.

Well, at least I've started painting. This is more than I have ever managed before.

Nearly Painted Orks and Grotz

Batch painting went reasonably well... lack of iPod and caffiene didn't help. Nor did my body's tendancy to seize up if I sit down too long. Junkfood was kinda managed but I missed getting a McAdditives breakfast due to leaving the house late (though I did manage to pick up a nummy sausage bap from BHS) and the lunch I had with Iszy was spectacularly uninspiring (it stopped me being hungry and that was about it... if only she was allowed more than 30 minutes for lunch. Ironically I get a full hour for lunch, but am too far away from town and am ususally too busy to make it worth bothering with).

It seems that 50 models was a bit much for my fist attempt at batch painting, but jumping straight in the deep end was what I needed to convince me that it's not so bad after all... if I can get some basic stuff done on 50 models in a day, fully painting ten in an afternoon should be a doddle (though still a little alien... I'm so used to taking at least two days per model).

But yes, all metals painted. Skin basecoated and washed on both sets of models. Next is clothing. This will hopefully happen today after I've been to town to pick up the Dredd Casefiles #11 and the rest of Gutsville.

Undercoated Orks

I has undercoated my Shoota Boyz and Gretchin... all ready for batch painting on Friday.

50 models in one day? Ambitious, but I reckon as long as I have my iPod, caffiene and junkfood I'll manage.
