@mage better late than never, but you have some catching up to do!

@ceppie that table looks great, you should start a project to log updates.

@robert that is some seriously nice sculpting work. I am absolutely rubbish at sculpting and I always get a bit jealous when I see stuff like that

@unclejimmy it’s amazing how much time you can kill assembling infinity stuff. Out of curiosity what glue do you use and do ever pin the pieces together?

Well I ended up “working” today. I just got a storage unit and had to move a load of stuff into it out of the garage. Then I made dinner (duck breast if you’re wondering). But I did manage to get a little bit of stuff done. First I finished basing these “cave lizards” (they’re komodo dragons from Gringo 40’s) for use in an upcoming RPG session. Because of the sheer amount of stuff I need to get done for that game a lot of it, these included, are being contrast painted. For whatever reason I decided to have a little bit of fun with the bases though and created little cave bases for them all. I think it helps them look more like cave Lizards and less like komodo dragons

As well as that, I also managed to paint this fellow. He’s the “Last Viking” from Wargames Illustrated however is is intended for use as someone’s character so he will be referred to as Seebor, the character’s name. As useful as Contrast Paints are this is where enjoyment lies. Cracking open the nice brush, building up layers and highlights.

Basing will have to wait unfortunately as the basing materials I have ordered aren’t here yet. I ordered some stuff from Geek Gaming as they appear to have a really good set of basing materials.  I will post images when they arrive and I finish it off.
