About the Project
Another year smashing away and slaying the grey in the pile of potential. I'm 52, my eyes aren't what they were. Table ready is good enough. Only characters get eyes. Can I paint another 650+ miniatures this year? More importantly, why do I still have so many unpainted miniatures?

Hot days and steamy knights
It’s a warm and moist summer here in Oz, and as unpleasant as it sounds. Last night rather than spend hours sweating in my sleep, I spent it sweating as I painted Bretonnian Knights. I have another 6 from the 5th ed Warhammer starter set to do but it’s a good start.
Giving it a shot
So I’ve continued on my Old Hammer run by painting some Pistolliers and Outriders that have sat unpainted for 30 years? I think I bought them in 1993 with the release of the Empire Army book.
With these done my Averland and Nordland armies are probably 75% of the way completed.
Starting with some Old Hammer
Late last year I painted some 5th Edition Bretonnian Bowmen with contrast paints. I found a bunch of metal bowmen still in blisters. I used standard paints this time. There’s still a few to go but they need stripping or repairs that I will get to next week.
