Painting Ronin Day 50

 Another good day on the brushes, I got all three units of Cav ready for basing and dip. I also picked out the next few batches for painting, more F&IW Civilians and something new WW1 British. I have had these for several years put just never got round to painting them. I have dusted them off undercoated them and they will soon get some love and attention.

My Wife has got her date for her surgery, Friday 15th the day before we were due to go on holiday to Norfolk. I had to make a few urgent calls and move the cottage booking to the Monday so she will have the weekend to relax before we set off, we are not planning anything to physical just a chance to catch up with friends.
I was doing a bit of thinking while wondering round work last night about doing a demo game for the show circuit, I know my Dad and our friend B are keen. I will have a sit down with Dad when he is home from NZ and discuss what we will do, what ever it turns out to be will be for 2014. I like the idea of a project that I can get my teeth into e.g. build terrain, paint figures design scenario.

Painting Ronin Day 49

Seems like ages since I was busy on the painting table, in fact its been less than a week but with a long weekend away and a couple of hospital visits (my wife's broken arm requires surgery :( ) I feel llike I have been slacking. In my absence that dasardly Chris has passed me by in the challenge, I think Chris should be spending more time in the New Zealand sun and less time painting. Or he could provide me his home address and I will send round my Dad to slow him down (Mum and Dad are enjoying a Holiday in Christchurch ATM).
Well tonight I managed a good long session on the painting table, I have progressed the French Hea Cav well and they should be complete by the weekend. The Hussars I love painting because they always add a splash of bright colors to any army and these French guys are no exception.

I had an order from Warbases.co.uk today a few more packs of the pill base's I am using for the skirmish Cav and some new movement trays these are for 12 Regular troops (will be for the NWF and Sudan).
