Welcome to Wednesday and this week we start with some bones. Tony F has been building some terrain, this time the remains of some gigantic beast.

Thinking of beasts, he has also painted up these two vicious looking bugs.

Moving on and another of our Tony’s, Tony P this time has continued amassing his Greek warriors and a temple for a bit of flavour.

And some more warriors with what looks like a champion out front.

Sticking with quantity and Mark J has moved on to some French infantry and support guns for his 10mm WW2 project.

There’s going to be a lot of units on the board when he’s done.

And with that we will see you next week.

It’s Wednesday again so let’s take a look at what our society members have been working on.
We start this week with Mark J who has continued to with his 10mm WW2 project with more buildings and armour.

Next up is me, I’ve been having a go at crates covered with tarp/canvas. Used a dried out glasses wipe for these, covered in PVA glue.

Now for something unusual, Phil is working on a Kate Bush themed Stargrave game and these are some of the loot tokens.

On the subject of Stargrave Charlotte has been painting some Fallout charatcer miniatures also for a future Stargrave game.

And finally for this week Tony F has put together a futuristic tower from (in his own words) an industrial thread bobbin, while the top is a cheap curtain rail finial.

And with that we will see you next week.

Welcome to the Work in Progress Wednesday post. I’m starting this week with some alien plants made out of pasta. My previous set were 16 years old so thought I’d make some more. I’ve also purchased a 3D printed skeleton of a dragon to use as scenery. It’s not a very good printing but will be fine as a bit of dressing for the battlefield.

Next up and Mark J has been busy paiting up 10mm scale early war tanks and other vehicles.

Something out of left field now, Tony F painted up a couple of characters for Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy themed Stargrave game. Here we have Arthur Dent, Ford Prefect and Thor.

And last for this week Tony had also created an interesting piece he’d seen another gamer make to keep track of the order players go in a turn. It worked really well for the game we played .

And with that we will see you next Wednesday.

We are covering quite a lot of genres this week with our Work in Progress Wednesday post.

We start with Charlotte having put the final touches to their Stargrave Crew. They have already been planetside so expect a Stargrave report coming soon.

We move on to  fantasy now and Phil has painted up a number of 10mm 3D printed trolls.

And yet more 10mm 3D printed Orcs, some archers this time to make a change from all the infantry.

Moving on to something historical but also in 10mm and Mark J has been painting up some early war German infantry.

Apparently he has managed two battalions done in a week!

Now on to something I’ve been meaning to do for a while. 16 years ago I made some alien plants out of pasta, and thought it was about time to make some more. Think I’ll go for a bright colour this time.

And I’ve put the finishing touches to my Starwars toy turned into a smaller scale sci-fi building.

And last for this week back to the historical with some medieval welsh archers from Stephen. Destined to swell the ranks of his Barons War armies.

And with that we will see you next Wednesday.

Welcome to another Work in Progress Wednesday, I’m going to be cheeky and start with something I’ve been working on. I’ve scratchbuilt some sci-fi industrial buildings, these will work for 3mm and 6mm games.

Moving on and more WW2 stuff from Mark J, we start with some gun crews for the guns we previously mentioned.

And some defending volkssturm for very late war scenarios.

Jumping back to the medieval and Stephen has painted up some men at arms for his Barons war armies.

After various other animals Tony F has also completed more livestock. little did we know they would be appearing in a Stargrave game, and not in a friendly way!

Tony also manged to finish his scratchbuilt telegraph poles.

And with that we will see you next Wednesday.

Welcome to another work in progress Wednesday, we start this week with Tony F, he has continued to painting up some British Bobbies, not sure what those are going to be used for?
And he has also painted up some wild dogs, no doubt for some unwelcome random encounters.

We move onto Marcus who has some more miniatures for Barsoom.

I’ve even managed something for this week. I’ve painted up an old Star Wars toy that I thought would make a good sci-fi building at multiple scales.

And last but not least for this week Tony P one of our newest members is diving head first into a bit of Field of Glory action with some 6mm greek forces.

With some skirmishers and hoplites.

And with that we will see you next Wednesday.

It’s October already! This week we start with Mark and some WW2 German guns. I’m reliably informed there is a Pak-43, IeIG-18-and a 6-pounder.

Next up and Andy continues to work through his Einherjar space dwarves.

We move onto Tony F who has been working through a mix of what ever takes his fancy. He starts with some scratchbuilt telegraph poles.

Some wire fences, useful for many different games.

And some wildlife to decorate the tabletop, in the form of some foxes and rabbits.

Meanwhile following a gift from another member Stephen has decided that he does need more Huey helicopters. Three more have been constructed and primed.

And lastly this week Tony P has been painting up some 6mm greeks, this time some impressive looking hoplites.

With that we will see you next week.

It feels like Autmn is arriving and the days are getting shorter where we are, but the members are still making progress on various hobby projects.

We start with Mark J who has some WW2 82nd airborne medics and some more miniatures for the last defence of Germany, last time we saw Submariners turned into infantry and this time some young enlisted tank hunters.

Moving on to Andy who has been trying something new. He has been painting more of his Sneakfeet (space Hobbits) with a camo pattern.

For the camo pattern he has used some paint pens that have been in the paint box for a while.

Here is a close up of the pattern Andy is creating with the pens.

Going down a scale or two Dave P has been painting 6mm Romans. A change from his usual Napoleonic era miniatures, I’m assuming there’s a lot more of these to come.

And last for this week Marcus has painted up a couple more Pulp adventurers.

And with that we will see you next week.

Welcome to another work in progress Wednesday, we start this week with Mark J having painted up some German WW2 commanders discussing their plans.

We follow that with some seasonal vegetable patches from Tony F, apparently the pumpkins are from some halloween popurri, while the cabbages are tiny roses painted green.

Next up and Andy has been on a bit of a science fiction theme. The first is a repaint of a Starwars toy I believe is an AT-DP (expanded universe me thinks).

And some Grav Security Bots from Ground Zero Games.

Marcus has continued with more ships for his Guadalcanal campaign.

And finally for this week Stephen has painted up a warlord for his Saga Crusades games.

And a made some more progress on his small zombie horde.

And with that we will see you next week.

It’s Wednesday again, feels like they come around every week! This week we start with Felix who has been trying something different by converting some WW2 German miniatures into Uboat crews as part of the late war Marine Panzerjaged 1.

And some heavy weapon crews for a bit more support.

Next up and Marcus has made a start on some WW2 imperial Japanese navy ships for the Battle of Guadalcanal.

These ponds from Tony F are a little different, he’s gone for a painted board with translucent plastic sheets over the top to provide the reflective surface.

And last (well they are zombies, so a bit slow) we have Stephen making a start on a small zombie horde.

With that we will see you next Wednesday.
