Only three more Wednesdays before Christmas and we have another eclectic mix.

We start with some more contenders in our Retro painting challenge. Above are the miniatures I got in the challenge, some chaos warriors getting ready for some very bright colours and an imperial guard heavy weapon.

Marcus also has an old GW miniature to paint in the form of an Eldar Wraithlord.

And sticking with the theme Stephen has made progress on his Space Marine and Chaos thug.

Now we move onto Mark J and some more Judge Dredd miniatures, this time some more judges.

And the start of a Pat Wagon.

Looking forward to seeing that painted up. We’ll see you next week.

It’s Wednesday again and we have a rather colourful collection.

We start with Mark J and some Megacity One Rioters followed by some Robots and Citi Def.

Keeping with the splash of colour Tony F has painted the last member of his Stargrave crew.

Next up Stephen has made a start on the GW retro challenge we are currently running (more on that in a later post).

And lastly for this week Phil has painted up even more buildings, practically a towns worth!

See you next week.

We start this week with some WW2 miniatures from Felix. Above we have some British SAS, while below some Germans out on patrol.

Next up and we have two more Mechs from Eric.

Now we move on to Mark J and the start of some more miniatures destined for Megacity 1 and an up coming Judge Dredd game. Just love those bright colours.

Phil’s been adding to his building collection. We’re expecting a sizable urban spread at this rate.

And last but not least this week Tony F has almost finished his Stargrave crew with another. Nice use of yellow for the armour on this one.

That’s it for this week.

We start this week with a trio of miniatures from Stephen. Above we have a bunch of Droids. Stephen has long been after some non combat droids.

Next up he has painted up Tom, Dick and Harry the mountain trolls.

And to round off some dire wolves.

Now we move onto Marcus who has also been painting up some droids as well.

Meanwhile Phil has continued painting his small scale buildings.

Next up John L has painted up some knights, just the bases to do on these.

And last for this week Eric has made progress on his Mechs, I think there are at least eight more to go.

Quite a lot of progress this week and it looks like more to come.

Let’s get straight into this weeks eclectic mix. First up we have Mark J’s WW2 Brits ready for action.

They are followed by Phil’s collection of tiny 1/1000th buildings from Brigade Models. My guess is these are for next years society show game!

Now we move onto David P and the start of some Russian Cuirassiers.

Now we move on to, well I’m not entirely sure so I’ll let Marcus describe it in his own words “conversion of an old GZG recon pod with underslung cannon (a GZG Phalon starship) on an organic, retractable mount”

Tony F continues to assemble his Stargrave crew, apparently these are numbers 8 and 9, so just one more to go.

And lastly for this week Peter M has another of his expanding fleet of scratch built cloud ships. Just a few more crew to add to this one.

See you next week for more work in progress.

This Wednesday we see two members doing the heavy lifting for this week.

We start with Tony F and some new 6mm Sci-Fi scenery. Next up Tony has also painted another member for his Stargrave Crew.

And now we have some terrain pieces for a Lord of the Rings game Tony is putting on in the new year.

Buckleberry Ferry and a house for farmer Maggots dogs, these are both scratchbuilt from coffee stirrers.

And some resin sign posts no doubt to be seen in Hobbiton.

And now we move onto Mark H who has finished painting his Korean war jets. Firstly some Sabres.

And some Migs. The aircraft are from Tumbling dice I believe.

And a nice close up of some of the the F86 Sabres.

See you next week.

It’s a rather autumnal Wednesday here so a good reason to stay in and get painting. We start this week with Eric and a whole load of Mechs being painted up for a game in next month.

Next up and Stephen has painted his frost giant.

Following that and Marcus has been painting up some Explorer Corps troopers from Star Schlock

And last but by no means least this week Peter M has created another scratchbuilt cloudship.

See you next Wednesday.

We start this week with another impressive scratchbuilt Cloudship of Mars from Peter M. Some of you will have been lucky enough to see this in action at the recent SELWG wargames show.

Next up and Tim has been frantically painting up some Dane Axes for a Saga game at the society.

He’s also been working on some ‘juggernauts with exalted champions’ whatever they are supposed to be.

Stephen on the other hand ha started on some fantasy monsters, outrageously mounted on Hex bases which he claims are coming back into fashion.

Now we turn to the Korean War and Mark H has been working on some jets.

And last but by no means least Tony F has been putting the finishing touches to some 6mm scenery for an upcoming game of Battletech.

That’s it for this week but I know there are more Cloudships and Mechs coming for next week.

Welcome to Work in Progress Wednesday. This week we start with Mark J and some WWII Brits. Felix has also been painting up some British infantry.

Next up Phil has been working on yet more trees.

After lots of questions from the membership Phil provided more details on the trees which are scaled down 3D prints that he has flocked.

Next up Tony F has painted up another Die Hard miniature for his Stargrave Crew.

Now we have Stephen scratching an itch by painting up some ECW units. We’re not sure if this is leading to a full army at this stage.

And finally for this week Eric has assembled some more gangs, this time some savages.

See you next week.

It’s another Wednesday and we start this week with a selection from Marcus. Above we have some smaller miniatures from Marcus’ various spy/undersea games and some 28mm Sci-Fi troopers.

Next up Phil has been making some more trees, we’ll have to see if we can get him to show the process for the trees.

Now we have Andy’s progress on some WWI vehicles, some Celtos Sidhe and the novel idea of having a marble to be used as an objective marker.

And lastly for this week Eric has again been busy putting together some more warbands. This time a Gnoll warband.

And some Chaos Cultists. What we are all waiting for is to see some paint slapped on all these.

We’ll see you next week for more from the members.
