Finished Felids and Other Notes

Realized that I had a picture of my Khurasan Felid Battle Circle that I had completed before I had to start preparing for the move to Texas. Not the best picture, but it gets the point across.

After I make some progress on the backlog I'll order some more Felids to round out about a platoon's worth with GZG wheeled vehicles.

In related gaming news, having all my minis, terrain, and most of my rule sets (some are PDFs on my Nook Color) in storage while I await closing on our house I was going through gaming withdrawal. So I went out and bought the Wrath of Ashardalon D&D board game. It gives a pretty good game, but the rules provide for a more dangerous dungeon environment than any DM I've ever played with (and they were pretty devious). Today I painted one of the character models. Turned out pretty well for a quickie, but the detail (especially the face) leaves something to be desired. In all though it looks better than flat blue soft plastic. I figure over the course of the next week I can at least finish the remaining hero figures. They won't be contest winners by a long shot, but will be at least more visually interesting. Pics later.

Oh, one more thing, I haven't been linking related items in my posts recently because I've been posting either from my phone or on a horribly slow connection on my netbook. No promises, but I intend to go back once I get a proper connection and insert links.

Painting Recession

Well, I seem to be experiencing a painting recession. Just haven't had the motivation to do much painting, which is bad becuase like most everyone else I have a lot of stuff that needs pigmentation. Thankfully I haven't been expanding the lead mountain either.

That being said, I finally did the last little bits on the Felid squad last weekend and got base coats on two of the three Mauridian frigates.

I'll post pictures eventually, just not real sure when...

Progress on the Felids

Have the armor base coated on all the Felids as of last night.  Tried to take a picture, but the camera didn't want to play well with others, so I stopped bothering to get a WIP shot.  The armor is Reaper MSP Pale Lichen, the fur will be Reaper ProPaint Fireball Orange (I think that's the name), and details in appropriate colors.  I think the orange will be a nice contrast to the light green.  Though the more I think about it, Pale Lichen is pretty close to the color of my service uniform shirts...
