Ive seriously had to recharge my batteries over the last few days. Some of my deliveries arrived which is great: AoS General’s Handbook 2018, AoS Objective Markers, bases, Arcworlde minis (Ossburd Cavalry and 2018 Captain and Scribe) with some cans of spray paint (Chaos Black and Zandri Dust) coming in the mail.

 

Finished a mini, did some assembly and sorting through some other stuff. I did not complete my weekend objectives but working on it now. Having some serious chillout time at the minute before hitting hobby before bed.

 

Helped my friend with his Star Wars Legion Rebels today and they are 60% done. It is his first army and we are doing it to a decent tabletop standard. He hasn’t really done much in the way of hobby before that. He is enjoying it and not too bothered at the amount of time disappearing into the ether and paint, which is great. The weather was too bad to spray his Storm Trooeprs and AT-STs but the rebels are coming along very nicely.

 

We are keeping Luke separate as he is different enough and I thought it would be good to tear through the swathe of infantry. They look well. Not too much left to do. There’s also an Air Speeder to do but we will do that a little down the line. I want him to get used to doing infantry first as that is where most of the work is. Lots to do but a lot nearly finished a bunch. They are gonna look great.

 

Working on some Arcworlde for the rest of the week. I finished a special character (dropped it when I finished him the first time leaving a great big chip on his head and had to redo it). He needs to be varnished and have grass added. I have three troopers nearly done too but the Wizard fell behind but thats ok. Pics to follow.

 

Also, D&D tomorrow night.

 

Watching Ted at the moment, need a laugh and a load off.

 

Also trying to fight off the urge to get a Nintendo Switch.
