Painting Table # 15 2016

So straight to business. I painted the Ogres and the Forge Fathers. I still need bases for the Ogres but don't have any handy. That is however 17 more models finished.

 Then I went on a assembling spree with all the frost grave minis and Oathsworn ones. Which means my sort of staging box is all filled up again. I hope to get these primed soon so I can work on the during the summer. When it is to hot/humid to do any airbrushing.

Finaly, I started on a huge batch of marines. So far they are all based, primed and have some of the black details done. These are all technically old metal sternguard. I am actually using them as command units mainly for all my different squads, if I remember right.

Well that is what has been going on since the computer died. Wish it was more but work was also brutal the past month. More as I get it done.

Painting Table #14 2016

The past few days has been productive. I started by finishing off the building I thought was finished already (so it will not be counted this year). Then I started transfering/saving some gw paints. One of the purchases in the past week or so was 50 15mm dropper bottles for like 9 dollars with shipping. I have transfered 10 or so paints so far.

 Finaly, I started blocking in colors on the ogers. So far I have only done about 2 colors a guy. I hope to have time to finish them off this next week.

In other news, I realized that one of my posts earlier this week pushed me over the 400 post mark. Amazed in myself for still doing this and equally amazed that people actually look at it. Anyway that is all for now.

Painting Table #13 2016

In my rush the other day to document I left a few things out. First, my next 2 projects are these forge fathers and ogres I have had floating around for a year plus.  I am also reworking a building that had formally been marked as complete. I realized I missed a large part of it when I went to coat it.

I also left out another $18.26 in spending and the 10 models from the This is not a test kickstarter and the first two Malifaux models. The Dreamer and Lord Chompy which I have always wanted to paint.

More as I get it done.

Painting Table #12 2016

This week was quite good. I finished off all 14 of the plague models and thus finished off the deadzone box set along with the few extra guys I had laying around.

I also finalized my kickstarter spending for This is not a Test. I also picked up a bunch of new nick knacks for painting and such. I did also pick up a metal set of goblin heroes for future use from mantic. The total set back from all of this was $131.18. It kills a large chunk of my budget for the year. But on the other hand it gets me a bunch of stuff I wanted to get anyway. The rest of the budget will probably be spent of flushing out the frostgrave stuff and maybe a pet project.

Anyway more as I get it done.

Painting Table #9 2016

This late update doesn't really have anything finished. I finally received my frostgrave Christmas present. Which means the frostgrave stuff is back on the table as a project and I now have 50+ models to do.

 In other news I got some work done on the enforcers. I hope to finish them off in the next 2 weeks.

So that is what is going on around here. This will be most of the next two weeks.

Painting Table #8 2016

I managed to actually get stuff done quickly over the weekend and the first few days this week. Namely I did my whole Pan O half of Operation Icestorm. Overall I like how they turned out

Here are 3 pictures showing all 7 of them.

 I decided the next goal is to paint a chunk of the deadzone stuff and then I will do a bunch of marines. So here are all the enforcers that need to be done.

So that is 7 more models to the total for the year. It also crosses off another part of the to do list. Actually with the skeletons from last post that is two things. At the moment I don't have any more Frostgrave stuff to paint. That will change at some point this year but for now it is all done.

More as I get it done.

Painting Table #7 2016

This week was great for progress but then again major holidays sometimes help me get more hobby time. I finished off the building I had been working on and 20 skelies.

So that is 21 finished models. Next up I want to finish off the pan O stuff and then try and find time to set stuff up and take pictures for different tabs.

Short and sweet this week. I finished off the two towers. Going to take 3 points each. I also ended up doing the base coats on all the suits by brush since the weather is wacky and I want this project done.

More as I get it done.

6MMRPC/ Painting Table #28 2015

Been another good week. I managed to finish off the 2x2 building.
I am going with 8 points since most of one side is open and of course one more model completed.

Then I also assembled a bunch more scatter terrain. To be honest though. I have no idea how I should paint my different rubble piles. I also assembled the last xv9 with fusion cascades and did more prep work on the three other xv9s.

The next week or so I plan on mainly doing assembley tasks. A bunch of drones, 5 more suits and whatever else I get my hands on. By the way what do you guys think of the posts with smaller pictures?

6MMRPC/ Painting Table #27 2015

Progress is good and I have made a decent amount of progress for this mid week update. First off, I finished off the other 2x1 deadzone building. I really like the rust effect wash I used on part of the roof. I look forward to using it more in the future though cleaning the brush after is more of a pain.

I also have prepped a wall scatter piece and the 2 doors so they can be painted up.

Finaly, I started building the remaining tau suits and drones.

I have one more fusion cascade ready to assemble and then 3 phased ion I need to straighten then assemble. After that there are two broadsides and then all my leftover drones and then I am done. I am doing a lot of prep work now because my airbrush doesn't work well for about the next month and change do to weather here. Once the weather gets back to normal I will prime and base all of these guys and then paint them up. The drones you will probably see sooner since they are all nice and small. They are also a pain to airbrush so I will just do everything by hand.

So that is one more model finished and 6 more points. On a side note people need to relax the misplaced racism and insults towards my painting are unwarranted for anyone to receive. You have also been reported for it, you know who you are. We are all just trying to improve ourselves and share our hobby with others who enjoy it. So relax and don't look at my blog if you don't like it.

6MMRPC/ Painting Table #26 2015

So another big update. First off, I gave the original orange planet a spray with the airbrush to brighten it a bit more before I sealed it so no points or anything for it since it was already counted as done.

But then I finished off two more bits of terrain. First off another planet. It comes out grey in the pic but it is actually a soft blue.

Then the first of the 2x1 buildings. From the deadzone stuff.

Overall, I am happy with the results of both projects. I am planning on finishing off the other 2x1 building and then probably building and painting the other tau suits so I can finish that project off.

So that is 2 more models, I am taking 3 points for the planet again and I am taking 6 for the building. This has also completed my terrain goal for the year.

Comments welcome.

6MMRPC/ Painting Table #25 2015

Alright this one is a huge update. First of will be things I have painted, then things waiting to be painted or in the process of being painted and finally things in assembly.
Below are the two more scatter wall pieces I did like the first and 6 cargo boxes of some time and 6 groups of tanks. They are all finished up. The wall pieces are actually two of the same put together from one of the fortification sets. They were supposed to be attached to normal wall pieces but were not worth the effort to get them fitted correctly. So that is 14 more pieces and as per other day the smaller ones will be half a point each and the bigger two 2 points each for a total of 10 points.

Next up are the current work in progress pieces. First up are the two 2x1 structures. The doors are removable and being painted later on.

Then my big 2x2 building. 

Next up is the being assembled stage. First up is two towers, they still need a lot of work to make the gaps smaller before I putty them.

This is actually a pair of doors that I put together to make another random wall piece.

Then some ruins, this one is two floors.

A few smaller pieces as well and one of the doors for the 2x1 buildings.

Finally, a piece of rubble terrain, there are a few more of these somewhere that are different that I will try and post photos of later.

Anyway that is all for today. More as I get it done. Questions and comments welcome.
