Those embroidered tunics in 6mm - takes a brave heart and a steady hand! I'm working on the feudal noble cavalry now.

Not inconceivable that the Persian nobility will be completed today. But that's about it for this year; I shall resume the classical project when I return from Italy in January.

Got a good three hours in last night, much highlighting done, all uniform base coats sorted!

Finally based the main infantry units for one of my AWI/ Imagi-Nations forces. I think command stands next, followed by cavalry and artillery. Then the small matter of having to paint them all...

Been busily painting away, three units finished, then sanded/pva'd yesterday and inked bases tonight.
Have just started 8 stands of Winged Hussars, base coated and inked horses and armour tonight. Interesting colours next, one unit will be red, the other pale blue to match the current theme of the army!

Some more Leven Miniatures buildings started, but dystonic tremors playing up too much, so stopped before they got ruined by shaky hands . Hope to re-start soonish...

Bugger, hope you can restart very soon

Thanks Paul. All seems ok today...

Varnished a base of Warband zombies and assembled a unit of Tudor billmen and a unit of Demi-Lancers, but that's about it!

'Broken the back', as far as the Dragon riders......(and some other plain dragons)....go, for their revamp.

Squeaky bum time is over, as I got the riders off the dragons I was using as 'formers', so the riders can be cast separately.

They didn't break ! (Apart from one, which was easy to repair).......BIG Phew !!
Broke one tail off one of the longer dragons......Another easy repair.

Desk is covered in white metal, where I've been reaming away with the Dremmel......I also appear to have silver coloured dandruff........AGAIN !
There are also lots of removed dragon wings in a heap.

Now putting the new wings on some of the dragons.

Cheers - Phil

Please can we have longer dragons, with more body, the present one is mere whelp!

If you mean the one with 'albatross'' wings, Will....I've made the wings much bigger. (And more dragony/batlike.)
I'll almost certainly have to re-do the back legs.....AND.....if there's room (with where the rider sits) I'll give them front legs too !

Tails ?.....Yeah......Think I'll have to do something to those too.....At least those will be a piece of widdle....The wings were horrible to do.
(And made out of aluminium sheeting from a can of 'Stella'..... )

Cheers - Phil

Made a good start on some Juraped riders, both mounted and dismounted, for KR-16. Will finish tomorrow as the bulk of the painting is done. Nice to have got the brushes etc out and hope to maintain the focus this year!

well done, a good start

Thanks Paul . Riders all finished bar the varnishing and some flock for the bases. Just waiting for the paint to dry properly so this will get done this afternoon/evening.

Many many bases dry brushed and edged, plus Winged Hussar horses highlighted, wings highlighted and armour too.
Back to work tomorrow, let the insomnia and bad dreams begin! 

More modern vehicles finished. Not happy with the base colour chosen for idf so painted up some post war soviet hardware - IS3, btr152 and zil truck.
Fitted in the cool pink panther as well.

Jurapeds all finished, so got to decide what to move onto next...

Flock, tufts, scatter and bases magnetised. Photos tomorrow

Prussian battalion guns and field gun limbers making good progress, such that they will be fighting again next week.
