About the Project
A place for all the models that don't fit into any particular project. Expect a range of different genres and companies, often painted for no real purpose other than to just have some fun and to act as a palette cleanser to break up work on other things.

Necropolis Priests
A trio of priests/cultists by Meridian Miniatures from their ongoing collaboration with Black Crab Art.
Wiglaf Miniatures
I managed to get hold of a small sample pack of Wiglaf Miniatures. These are really nicely detailed 18mm sculpts by Mark Copplestone, great fun to paint up. Definitely worthy of their shortlisting for Indie of Year 2022, and I’ll probably get some more at a later stage.
Knight & Squire
A pair of sculpts by Meridian Miniatures as part of their ongoing collaboration with Black Crab Art. These were part of a Kickstarter that arrived late last year. Lots of excellent sculpts that are equal parts intimidating and exciting to paint.
Android Xenoseeker
This is one of plastic Starfinder RPG figures produced by Archon Studios. Although 28mm, the proportions are quite slender, and details a little shallow, so I been putting off painting it. Motivation and inspiration came in the form of the solo-RPG Notorious arriving in the post. This rpg is essentially about playing one of the bounty hunters from Star Wars as they track down a contracted target. Reading the rules got me keen to paint an appropriate model, plus the cover of the book gave a nice colour scheme to use.
Adder Mage
More Burrows & Badgers. I probably should have tried to push the contrast between the black patterning and the other scales a bit more, but happy with the sheen.
Mistghasts
A trio of mistghasts for Burrows & Badgers. Super fast painting effort, tried lazy flame lighting by letting the dry brushing be a bit imprecise. I think it just about works, although I may come back to these at a later date if I change my mind.
Space Dwarf
This characterful resin sculpt is by Gydran Studios. I typically don't paint much sci-fi, so a bit of a departure from my comfort zone. I made a bit of a mess with attempting a glow on the gun, but happy with the scanner on his arm. Missed the opportunity to give him an antennae on his back pack. The rubble on the base was just offcuts of moulding gates stuck down. 
Handmaiden of Pallas Athene
Sculpt is by Lucid Eye Publications, picked up in one of the many sales they run throughout the year. Really wanted to challenge myself with the freehand on the shield.
Left at the Bottom of the Garden
Left at the Bottom of the Garden is a range from Statuesque Miniatures. They are a set of single piece metal models designed to be little cloth toys. These wolves are from Chapter 3 of the range, which just arrived the other day after a successful Kickstarter campaign a month or two ago.
