Painting 'finished' on the camp models :)

I need to decide if I need to highlight them to break up the large areas of colour :-\

Next I need to paint the figures and sand the styrene bases :!!

And base the last batch of the French :!! :!!

Good progress on painting the figures :)
The forecast strong northwesterlies, gale at times have been mainly gales and I don't sand styrene inside :-w

The wind has dropped so I got these bases sanded as soon as I got home from work and before the sun set #:-S

I can tidy up the flocking on the French and do some more painting inside this evening :!!

Continuing my 'policy' of doing at least a little each evening:

  • Checked flocking of the French and now happy :)
  • Glued magnetic vinyl under camp bases :)

This despite getting home later than usual after attending the leaving drinks for a couple of former colleagues who have been made redundant
Interestingly about a third of those at the drinks were ex-employees of the company (including me) rather than current employees, most having been made redundant over the past 4-5 years :-\

Done, done & done :) :) :)

Also it fined up a bit this afternoon so I got the last batch of French varnished :)
Clouded up again before the varnish was dry enough for piccies :(

I was planning to take a bit of a break before tackling the last two armies of this project, unfortunately Pierre the Shy needed to order some more musketeers for the units I was going to paint during my break

Pendraken have shipped them out within a couple of days during the move to new premises :o :o :o
But they will take a few weeks to get here :-w

Fortunately I had managed to tag onto another order of Pierre the Shy's so I have something else to work on  #:-S
