Secret Santa and Challenge update.

I was very lucky to have two fine gifts from my Secret Santa and Santa clause, I got two greta packs of Perry's Samurai that will be cleaned up and based this weekend ready to join the ranks o my Ronin figures also some great terrain scatter in the form of barrels. My Secret Santa Clause was a great figure produced by Gringo 40 this is an officer of the French Foreign Legion who will when based become a stream ship captain for the Sudan.

I took a quick shot of my paint desk, you can see that I have my Bengal Lancers under way plus some Afghans and Dark age stuff.

I was able to get my first entry in to Curt the other day a group lot of NWF Foundry Figures that I had great fun painting.

Regular Posting will be interrupted

I think my plan to post each day during the challenge and to challenge myself to complete 4500 points was always going to be a loser. I want to spend every possible second with brush in hand and stopping to take photos and blogging has taken a back seat.
I will try and post fairly regularly but it may just be a few photo's of WIP and the odd comment. Please be assured I am still reading as many blogs as I can and am very active on the FB page (as it sits next to my painting desk) but if anyone wishes to contact me drop me an email of FB message.

 

Wild Bunch Day 6

Back up to full speed again today, I completed the Guide Infantry ready for base work and dip. On the base front I have been thinking and I plan to paint the base's with the craft paint and when dry will paint the dip on the figures and base I will then complete the base work with dry brush and tuff's.

I have completed the flesh on the Camel Corp so then will see more attention this weekend. After putting away the finished figures I dug out my next batches. I am starting on the Afghan's these I will do in groups of ten painting them in the same colours and then when I put them all together they will look irregular.

I have one of my Afghan Command stands and the first unit of Bengal Cav, I think you can also see in the end of this picture my entry for the first bonus round a figure from Perry Miniatures AWI range.
