Blog Marcus' painting log 2023

The Infantry have cavalry support!

 

24 grenadiers, 2 sergeants. These will complement the 24 grenadiers I already have built/partially painted and complete the company.

 

quick update from the desk. 8 more Picarde infantry finalized.

Man, its starting to look like something.

 

Well friends, its that time of year.

While I'm not stopping painting, I will be turning my attention into prepping for projects beginning 2024. As well as preparing to post the new project log for 2024.

In the next week you'll see me finish what's on my painting table, and then prepare a whole mess of things (build, prime, sorted and ready.) I want to be prepped and ready to hit the ground running in 2024. I didn't hit 1000 minis painted this year and that needs to change for next year so my backlog can get cleaned up.

Part of that was due to my Europe vacation this summer. Part of that was due to getting dumped and kicked out close to immediately after returning.

Onwards and upwards, friends. Happy painting and hobbying.

 

I've decided that companies of infantry will be 50 miniatures, and companies of cavalry will be 36 figures.

I've also brough both current units up to the 50 men for their first companies. i'll probably get these done after the first of the year.

I think the last thing I'm going to paint for the year is this command base.

 

Those are big unit sizes, especially for 28mm. Which ruleset are you using?

 

They are based for black powder. I just make large units.

 

continuing to push on with new years prep. sorted my undead army to-build pile out.

Built and primed a unit of 5 blood knights.

primed more of the 1700's stuff.

 

I worked on last night and I'm continuing to work on tonight a massive pile of undead I needed to build.

 

Undead prime day 1. Plus a few unrelated peltasts to fill space.
