Still alive and kicking

Picture from Metro Exodus game.

Hello, out there.

Just a quick post to say that I am still alive. February already, where does the time go? Winter hasn’t yet gone away but hopefully spring isn’t too far away. 

Life has been insanely busy juggling work and  running my wife’s daily treatments. Work isn’t helping too much especially as it is now one man doing the work of three, trying to catch up on 12 months backlog of work. Sadly there is no sign of any help on the horizon. Despite all this you will be glad to know that I have managed to get some hobby time in. 

Mainly working on odds and ends for the forthcoming Stargrave game which I am looking forward to. I am also working on assorted figures from MEP miniatures for my Post Apocalyptic setting. 

As soon as I get some figures & models finished I will be posting them up. 

Stay safe and take care out there. 

The painting challenge.

Hello and Welcome back to my blog.

It is no secret that my hobby time has slipped in the last few years. Time seems to absorbed by a thousand other things. When I do get to paint my cats seem to take it in turns to stop me. 

As it is 1st of August I thought I would set myself a target. A challenge to keep me painting. I am aiming at painting a figure a day which will end sometime in mid November, which is when I put the brushes away ready to get the house “Christmassed up”. The target is to get 100 28mm scale figures painted. This should dent the unpainted pile quite a bit. 

There may be a few issues achieving this such as me going to this years BYOL, days out, Halloween  (it’s a big thing in my household), work and chasing electrical gremlins around my motorbike’s wiring. 

I will of course try to keep the blog updated with my progress. Wish me luck.

Thanks for reading, take care out there.
