It has been since June 25th??! Really? Yikes!
During this time I have managed to play several games of The Lord of the Rings Strategy Battle Game at the new GW store. Thanks to all involved, especially Charlie and Art. I won a game, too!
LOTR motivated me to finish a few figures to have a completely painted, 500 point army. I got four (4) whole figures done! What, you want proof?
I have also been plodding on the Prussians. I have to admit: those of you out there that crank out dozens and scores of figures? I have no idea how you do it.
I don’t like painting, even though I love fielding a force that I have painted myself. I can even get into “the groove” on occasion and get some serious painting done. But not right now.
I tried to do production-line painting, but that was just depressing. So I am now working on the Prussians in 8 figure blocks. I have 16 complete and have just finished putting black on the next group, which includes the command figures. I had to stop because I was getting tired and sloppy. Still, I am progressing, if slowly.
I also took an evening to assemble and prime a box of plastic Warlord Landwehr. You can see them here with the completed Perry figures.
I primed them with ArmyPainter Navy Blue, as in the article on the Warlord site. I think they are not dark enough blue, but will see when they are done.
Thanks for stopping by. Hopefully more interesting stuff in the (near) future!
