Work-in-Progress Wednesday - 27 November 2024

 With the last of the ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY minis done for Cursed City... and no other things that I feel like I NEED to get done for any particular event... I feel like things are about to shift about on the work bench. 

There are a few things left to finish up for Cursed City - Torgillius the Chamberlain and Gorslav the Gravekeeper to finish up the hostiles.... The Gravestones and Gibbet markers... four more of the Heroes that came with the box (and Morrvahl Olbrect... If we decide to use him...) I should have most of those finished up for next week!  

(I did not scrub all the paint off my workbench or take pictures in another location... I was feeling like the paint on the workbench was getting a bit distracting, so I brought a sheet of paper to lay on the workbench - just for the pictures...) 

There are still some Slaves to Darkness things lurking on the desk, that now I feel like I'll have some time to concentrate on, though none of it is pressing. I've kind of written off playing in the current Path to Glory campaign at the Warhammer Store and planning for maybe running one myself in the new year... 

There are a few other things working their way back onto the workbench, largerly because there are SO FEW I need to finish up for that whole collection to be DONE!!!

Nighthaunts. Only things I need to finish up are The Scriptors Mortis, The Craventhrone Guard, and some Myrmourn Banshees... and that's IT! Ten models!! And relatively easy to paint models!!

(Oh, I technically have ONE OTHER group of Nighthaunts to do; The Headsman's Curse Warhammer Underworlds warband! they're in a storage box... somewhere in the painting room... I should probably get them out to finish up with the rest of these!!) 

Sylvaneth. All I have left to paint for these are Ylthari's Guardians and five Tree-Revenants and five Spite-Revenants. I'm extra motivated to get these done as Ylthari's guardians look like they might be fun to play in the new Warhammer Underworlds and Amanda is playing a Spite-Revenant in the new Age of Sigmar: Soulbound role-playing game that we all just make characters for last night!? 

I'd like to get these Seekers and Hellstriders back on the workbench to finish up in the not-to-distant future... they're also close and will make some fun options for the Hedonites! 

STILL hoping to get back to playing Warhammer Underworlds and maybe try out some of THESE warbands! Zikit's Tunnelpack was removed from the workbench and put in temporary nearby storage along with the other two Skaven warbands still to paint... 

Ugh... these guys... Also so close to finishing... 

Another assortment of characters and heroes... The fellow in the front with the pistol and torch might be the first priority as Finnegan is playing a Witch Hunter in the Soulbound game and I thought that might be a fun miniature to use... I think I have a Witch Hunter had somewhere I could use... or model one... or just keep it as is, not ALL Witch Hunters HAVE to wear that iconic tall hat with the wide bring, do they...? 

Which will I ACTUALLY get done by next week!? 

I don't know... probably the Warhammer Quest stuff...

After that? Maybe anything I need for Soulbound? The Witch Hunter and Spite-Revenant... (and, while I'm at it, ALL THE SYLVANETH!?) 

WHAT ARE YOU WORKING ON THIS WEEK!?

Work-in-Progress Wednesday - 13 November 2024

 I have cleared a LOT of stuff off the workbench this past week. I finished off all the Minatures for Crypt Hunters, and removed a BUNCH of others that I realistically just wasn't going to be getting to any time soon... What remains are miniatures I'll be needing for warhammer Quest: Cursed City - which we will hopefully be starting in a few weeks - and a few other things that I just couldn't move off the bench - things that were just TOO CLOSE to being FINISHED and a few Warhammer Underworlds warbands I wanted to finish up. The new edition of Warhammer Underworlds is out this Saturday, and I'm hoping that will get us all playing again! 

So... 

(Ugggghhhh... so much stuff out of focus...) 

Warhammer Quest: Cursed City Characters! I really only need to get ONE of these done, to get started, as I previously painted three of them... I think Dagni Holdenstock and Qualthis are the priorities... the Witch/Vampire Hunter next... 

Warhammer Quest: Cursed City Deadwalker Zombies - I could probably get away with only doing about half of them, as all of the Level 0 Encounter cards only have 2-3 Deadwalker Zombies... I guess if ALL FOUR Encounter cards were zombies, I might need them all... 

Warhammer Quest: Cursed City Corpse Rats 

Warhammer Quest: Cursed City Tokens - not 100% sure what most of these are even FOR!? and I've read most of the rules...!? 

Warhammer Quest: Cursed City Vyrkos Blood-Born - these aren't as huge of a priority. There are three Encounter cards (of sixteen) that have a single Vyrkos Blood-Born show up at zero or first level (only ONE at level zero) so it is unlikely they'd show up... or I could even just leave out that one card. 

I should probably dig out Gorslav the Gravekeeper as well.... Like with the Vyrkos, Gorslav only shows up on ONE Encounter Card. I could just leave it out if I don't get him done in the next two weeks... 

Saviors of Cinderfall (plus bonus gryph-hound) - there are stats for using them in Cursed City... also they're just fun miniatures... I'm actually DONE three of them... just waiting to finish up the rest before posting them. 

Thought they are kind-of-sort-of playable in Cursed City only Lyssa Revenya, Armand Callis, Hanniver Toll, and... Mistress Verentia, the Weaver of Whispers(!?) are useable on the table!? Valius, The Keeper Aqshian, and his Gryph-Hound Balthus, are represented in the game as cards that give some advantage, BUT can be in play if ALL FOUR of the other characters are used... including Mistress Verentia, the Weaver of Whispers!? It's been a while since I listened to the Callis & Toll audiobook, but I don't recall her being a fighty-action character!? I think they called upon her once... for some information...? I didn't think she had all that much of a connection to the rest of the group? 

Warhammer Underworlds - there has been SOME work on the Seraphon... not much (ANY) on the others. motivation to finish up the Gorechosen or Ylthari's has dropped some as they cards for them won't be available for at LEAST three more weeks... The Starblood Stalkers fighter cards were released as PDFs the other day, though... So I might try to finish them up by the end of the week! 

By next week I may have others on the workbench - the two NEW warbands from Embergard... and maybe some others I have that aren't painted but could be used... 

I have been plucking away at the Awakened Wyldwood... regardless if I'm using the Sylvaneth, they'll make nice terrain bits on any table! 

Assorted Vampires and Heroes... These are in the So-close-I-should-really-just-finish-them-off-and-be-done-with-them category... 

Assorted Chaos things that are also in the "So-close-I-should-really-just-finish-them-off-and-be-done-with-them" category... 

Slaanesh Endless Spells... 

What will actually get done in the next week...? I'm hoping the Saviors of Cinderfal and the Priority Heroes from Cursed City... and I hope to at least get started on the deadwalker zombies and corpse rats and tokens and Vyrkos... maybe even finish up one of those...? As ever, we shall have to wait and see... 

WHAT IS EVERYONE ELSE WORKING ON THIS WEEK!?
