Work in Progress Wednesday

How is it November already? It’s definitely getting colder (and wet) which has slowed down my use of the varnish spray, but it hasn’t slowed down other progress.

We start this week with Stephen and his wonderful scratchbuilt Quar flyer.  Sadly there aren’t any rules for flyers in Clash of Rhyfles yet, but when there are Stephen will be taking to the air.

Next up and Mark J has painted up some more German armoured vehicles for an Arnhem game he is putting together.

Moving on and Andy has made some more progress on his dark age peasants.

And keeping with the theme he has started putting together a horse and cart.

After making a factory building out of card I decided to be adventurous and try to make a spaceship out of card. Turned out to be a lot of fun. Unfortunately this one is destined to be a crashed ship objective marker, so will be receiving a bit of battle damage.

Tony F has been painting a sci-fi barn. I think there are a few more greebly (yes we’ve recently rediscovered that word) bits to add to the outside.

And last but by no means least, Phil has been painting more 10mm orcs. I think he has reached the half way stage on the number he is planning to paint.

And with that we will see you next week.

Work in Progress Wednesday

Welcome to another Wednesday, and there is no shortage of progress this week. We start with Chris St who has made progress on his late romans, both more infantry and cavalry.

I however have been having fun with cardboard. I obtained a concrete effect spray paint and discovered it makes simple buildings like this sci-fi factory look much better with a bit of surface texture.

Moving on and Mark J has painted up a rather characterful WW2 British soldier carrying a PIAT.

Next up and just in time for Halloween, Andy has started on some 3D printed witches.

And he has also pressed into service some peasants with a bit of conversion work to provide various weapons.

And lastly for this week, we will leave you with a teaser from Stephen. He is apparently working on a secret Quar weapon. We’ll have to wait until next week for the reveal.

And with that we will see you next week.

Work in Progress Wednesday

It’s Wednesday again and this week we start of big and end with a collection of odds and sods.

We start with an impressive looking Mars station from Marcus W.

Staying with large buildings and Kim has some more progress on some buildings for Guards of Traitor’s Toll.

And with the market stall Kim has also painted lots of trade goods.

Moving on and Andy has been working his way through all those little bits we like to have for games. First up some directional signs.

And some other signs, a couple of wells and other pieces suitable for things like objectives.

Andy has also painted some very old Robot miniatures, these probably still contain real lead!

And lastly for this week Tony F has created some more pumkin patches.

And with that we will see you next week.

Work in Progress Wednesday

It’s a windy Wednesday this week, but enough about the weather, we start with Andy who has finished painting his sci-fi german power armour. Both the standard troops and the heavy weapons.

Next up and Chris St has made a start on some Late Roman cavalry to support the infantry we saw last week.

Dropping down scale or two and Stephen has started a new project with 15mm dark age unit bases.

And lastly for this week Tony F has been busy preparing for a Halloween themed Stargrave game.

He has finally found a use for some autumn plants.

And some nice fencing to surround the grave yard.

So just as well Tony has also painted up some tomb style pillars to go with the grave stones he has already painted.

And on that spooky note we will see you next week.

Work in Progress Wednesday

It’s Wednesday and there’s been more progress!

We start this week with Chris St and some 15mm Ancient Greeks. Chris got these of Ebay and has been sprucing them up and adding some decals to the shields.

moving onto more modern times and Chris has also been painting up some 28mm Late Romans.

Off to the unknown now and Stephen has finished his King in Yellow plus minions.

Sticking with the other worldly Tony F has been crafting some graves for a forthcoming seasonal spooky game. I suspect the hell hounds will also feature.

And lastly this week, Andy has continued with his German powered armour. The camo pattern was created using AK Real Colors marker paint pens.

Here is the few of the back, it’s started a discussion about the use of these paint pens at the society. With one or two members already using them and others now wanting to give them a try.

And with that we will see you next week.

Work in Progress Wednesday

Happy Wednesday everyone, we kick off this week with a whole host of townsfolk from Kim for Guards of Traitor’s Toll. We cannot wait to see the whole town.

Next up and Mark J has some WW2 Brits on the painting desk. Armed with a number of Piats these are destined for Arnhem.

Speaking of which Mark has also got some more buildings painted up for that very town.

Going a bit fantastical now and Stephen has a selection of horrors from Reaper miniatures to paint up.

And lastly for this week Andy is still very much in a Sci-fi groove with progress on his Konflikt 47 German power armoured troops.

And some objective markers and dice holders for wounds and morale.

And with that we will see you next week.

Work in Progress Wednesday

It’s Wednesday so here we go again with progress from our members. We start this week with Mark J and another building for his Arnhem project, there will be lots more about that in the coming months.

Moving on and Andy has gone from painting small 28mm sci-fi to painting big 28mm sci-fi. Here we have the start of some Konflikt 47 Stahltruppen Heavy Infantry.

Sticking with sci-fi and Tony F has painted himself a miniature for his character in a game of Traveller. The last couple of years have seen more RPG’s at the society with Traveller being the latest offering.

Eric has continued with his new Battletech Lance, this time with all of their feet firmly on the ground.

And last but not least Marcus W has painted up some more Spy-fi miniatures.

I wonder what this one is planning to do with that hat …

And with that we will see you next week.

Work in Progress Wednesday

Welcome to another work in progress post. This week we start with Eric and his new lance for Battletech. The lance includes this Crusader lifting off for some death from above.

Next up and Mak J has been constructing more houses for his Arnhem game. Yes the game will be set prior to the action kicking off, which is why everything is still intact.

I’ve been using some vine style foliage found in the Works to make simple hedge rows with. A coating on PVA glue and they are ready to go.

And lastly for this week, Marcus W has been working on more Spy-Fi miniatures.

We can definitely spot a familiar villain in their midst!

And with that we will see you next week.

Work in Progress Wednesday

It’s a rather Autumnal Wednesday here and  I for one can appreciate the cooler temperatures for getting a bit more painting done. We start this week with Stephen’s marvellous Quar balloon. The Quar seem to be providing untold opportunities for these types of modelling projects. It won’t be long before the first aircraft appears.

Next up and Marcus W has made progress on their ice formations. Ice is tricky to do and I believe Marcus is adding more details to these pieces.

Moving on and Eric is back to the Battletech hanger, to get another lance ready for an upcoming game of the classic variety.

And we finish this week with a definite up take in output from Andy. Firstly he has dug through the odds and sods box to work on various pieces of scatter terrain.

We then have the finished Sneakfeet miniatures.

And a fair number of finished Einherjar space dwarves. Looks like Andy has enough for a future game of Grimdark Future: Firefight or even the full battle version.

And with that we will see you next week.

Work in Progress Wednesday

It’s Wednesday again and this week we start with Andy with more progress on his Einherjar space dwarves and the Sneakfeet associates.

Next up and Tony F has finished some test paints for his soon to be legions of 10mm Rohan forces.

Stephen has finished painting another scratch built arabic style building. This will no doubt be making an appearance in the next Crusades battle.

Sticking with scratch building and Stephen for that matter, and we have an observation balloon as suitable decoration for his Quar in the next game of Clash of Rhyfles.

And last for this week, I’ve made some progress on some Sci-fi crates. As they are sci-fi I’ve gone for bright colours for the base coat.

And with that we will see you for more progress next week.
