Pics of Anne's Cleavage (And Some Updates)

OK, to be more accurate, pics of cleavage painted by Anne! 

This lovely young lady was a gift she sent me via Fran. I would have received it a few weeks ago if I'd been able to make it to BlogCon. I'm pleased as punch to add such a wonderfully painted figure to my collection.

She also sent me this figure from Reaper, which looks as though it will be great fun to paint.


And now for the updates....

15mm Swiss Halberdiers

I finished prepping these during my lunch break on Thursday and primed them with gesso this afternoon.

28mm Berserkers

I prepped these yesterday and primed them this afternoon with Vellejo black surface primer.

28mm Mordheim(?) Figures

I received these two figures in a prize draw on someone's blog several months ago (or did someone gift them to me?). Anyway, these were prepped at the same time as the berserkers and primed with Vallejo white surface primer this afternoon.

NSL Fleet

Last night I got one batch of ships prepped, washed and assembled. I spray primed them this evening. The other batch got washed today and are now on long flight pegs ready for priming tomorrow.

Batch 1

2 Helgoland heavy cruisers; 4 Danzig class escort cruisers

2 Frankfurt class escort cruisers; 3 Nibelung class corvettes

Batch 2

2 Rommel class attack cruisers; 2 Kiel class light cruisers; 4 Emden class light cruisers; 2 Pola class frigates

I'm going to try to prep and prime the rest of the fleet this week. I'll probably go for a pretty basic dark grey colour scheme for these, with some panels picked out in a military green.


15mm Sci Fi - Heavy Grav Tanks and APCs

I've clearly had a busy afternoon and evening. As well as everything else, I also got round to finishing these vehicles from Critical Mass Games. They are from the ARC Fleet range. The bases were tufted and flocked, the vehicles sprayed with matt varnish and then glued to the bases. I'm quite pleased with how they've come out. After taking the photos, I added some magnetic sheet to the bases for storage and transport.

Grav APCs

Heavy Grav Tanks

Tipped to show the detailing of the  anti-grav units

Well, that's an awful lot of photos for one post, but they do show an awful lot of work that I've managed to get done since Wednesday.

100K Prize Draw - Day 4 Winner

In case you've forgotten, the Day 4 prize is a small collection of minis from the Reaper Bones line:

31 followers had 163 entries between them, just over half of them (82) from 2 individuals - one with 49 entries, the other with 33. From what I've seen on their blogs both would do these figures justice if they won them.

So, who was the lucky winner of these figures?

Well, persistence with the comment spamming has clearly worked for Anne (she of 49 entries for this prize and 39 for yesterday's prize!).

Anne - please drop me an email with your address and I'll get them shipped out to you.

Just one prize left to be drawn.

100K Prize Draw - Day 4

Edit to Add: Just a quick "Eeeeks!!"



Don't forget, there is still time to enter the previous draws:

Day 1

Day 2

Day 3


So, onto today's draw. There are 3 photos today but all the items together constitute a single prize. I think that Anne and Ray [ :p  ]will be hotly contesting this one!

Anyway, piccy time so that you know what's on offer - eight fantasy figures from the Reaper Bones line:

Cave Troll, Young Fire Dragon and Ogre Chieftain

Human Warrior Barnabas, Garrick The Bold, Human Ranger Michelle

Fulumbar Ironhand, Elf Archer Lindir

OK, the rulesy-stuff:


1. You must be a public follower of this blog
2. Each draw will be open for 7 days and then the winner will be chosen at random from all entries
3. Every comment on the post will count as 1 entry in the draw (eg 5 comments = 5 entries)
4. Linking to the draw on your own blog will earn you an extra 5 entries for the prize in question
5. You can transfer your prize to someone else if you wish



Secret Project Progress

I've just got one more painting step to do on the bits I made with Milliput. Before I add them to the project, I need to do some touch-ups and highlights of the bits that are already part of it. That's my job for tomorrow.

The whole project will then need some finishing touches, leaving me with just a little bit of artwork to do to declare the project completed.
