December - it’s been very quiet as I get up to speed in a new job and fight off nursery’s biological warfare. I’ve managed to get my first #StirRiverPatrol Captains guard finished. Not a lot, but a tiny thing like this keeps me happy and sane! Now to put aside paints and minis for the festive break. 😂
Been a great year in terms of hobby, I’ve come on leaps and bounds. Through this yoke - encountered lovely folk. Nice to pause and reflect.
November - started out dandy, brought some #KillTeam back to Ireland to continue indoctrination of the brother in law. Had some extremely close games, as he started to really get the game. Also got officially made redundant, found a new job, and the daughter started nursery - or as I call this last one - the end times began 😂 Finally, I base coated part of an Empire Greatsword for my #StirRiverPatrol.
August - managed to get our painted teams on the board for a few games of #KillTeam - Orks avenged my previous routing by @Octavius8 by krumpin’ him good. That’s not all - @Berit’s amazing initiative #FediPaint went out on its inaugural voyage - and I had an absolute blast pushing myself painting a chef for my #StirRiverPatrol another #Mordheim Classic.
June 2/2 - that wasn’t all either - actually ended up doing a painting session with @Octavius8 and also painting two of my favourite #minis of the year - a #StirRiverPatrol Captain (converted from a #Mordheim champion), and a #VoidscarredCorsair for #Killteam
May - saw lots of variety in what I worked on, General Montrose for my #PikeAndShotte force, #WHFB Harry the Hammer, #StirRiverPatrol dinner scouts, and a test model for a #DarkElves force.
April 2/2 - with the arrival of tiny, it meant initially a lot of sitting about during naps 😅 Meaning more #StirRiverPatrol and starting on #HarryTheHammer as well! Busy month.
April 1/2 - so… in April, someone arriving but arriving very late meant there was lots of time for #Painting. They’ve made up for a late arrival by being a great wee buddy since. I started trailing out Zenithal for the first time on #StirRiverPatrol/#Mordheim minis, completed my first regiment of Montrose Irish for #PikeAndShotte and painted Montrose’s horse!
Have just looked through my snaps for #MyYearInMiniatures - so here goes nothing!
January - great blast at the start of the year- with #Frostgrave, #Vostroyan, #WHFB all on the go. The #VostroyanVonaghan5thLightMilitia for #KillTeam and #StirRiverPatrol for #WarhammerFantasy have been two of my favourite little projects of the year.
Anyway, all that aside! #Hobby. I was determined to do something. I knew it’d be small, but I wanted to get a little of anything done this evening.
Picked out an #Empire Great Sword for my #StirRiverPatrol. He’ll be a member of the Captain’s Guard. Only applied one layer of Green, but happy out with myself. Need to tidy the storage shelves to be able to get at paint/projects quickly is the main takeaway.
eBay rescue on the table. Done some green stuff to theme this warhorse for my #StirRiverPatrol. Lots of happy lurker fish vibes going on. Attempted some freehand - you can see where I have covered it up with white, disaster 😂. Some of the rough plating on the front of the horse works for my theme of a battered, ramshackle River Patrol.
