What are you doing today hobbywise?

Kitbashed more zombie pirates for a total of 18 so far.

 

What I am doing today hobbywise is cursing myself for deciding white was a good choice for my oldblood's pants.

I then curse the Duke of Wellington for being shown as wearing white pants, thus influencing my choice thus.

I then l return to cursing myself for thinking that white will ever be a colour (or lack thereof) I will ever feel confident painting.

Has it yet sunk in yet that I don't enjoy painting white for anything other than linings and tiny amounts of highlights?

 

Wondering if there will be more voters in the current Short story contest

Grrr, !mrahil

 

Took the day off work due to bad weather and an old injury. Kit bashing some zombie pirate gunners.

 

So you're saying that two wrongs (bad weather & old injury) do in fact make a right (hobby progress)!!

 

I suppose one could say that. I have taken some spare Ghost Archipelago crewmen and I'm working on some crew for a Mordheim pirate band.

 

I would but I'm labeled "essential personal" and have to show up. Blizzard conditions and state of emergency called? Yup there I am driving in to shovel. What a life.

In more positive news, I'm building some Dead man's hand minis. Both for Dead man's hand and Pulp Alley.

 

Howard Johnson is right!

 

I got a hold of some Nihilakh Oxide to add some corrosion and weathering to some of the metal parts of my vehicles. I'm not entirely convinced after having applied it though.


Meanwhile, I'm slowly chugging through those Saurus Deathriders, or their mounts at least.

 

Made up 30 zombie pirates in total, 10 zombie pirate gunners as well and 7 henchmen and 2 heros for a mordheim warband.

 

I should clarify. Zombie pirates are a 6th edition project. Though I do have an idea for a Lustrian scenario where warbands have to fight or slip past zombie pirates to raid a ship wreck.

 

Always a fan of interesting scenarios in gameplay.

 

Its 3am and I have finished another two saurus. Sculpting new hands, resculpting arms and then a complete paint job. I'll post them tomorrow.

 

In regards to my zombie pirate project, I have completed a total of 35 zombie pirates with standard and musician, 1 unit of 12 zombie gunners with handguns, 1 of 10 with handguns and a third unit of zombie gunners with dual pistols. I have also completed kit bashing my pirate warband for Mordheim.
