As you can see I got a few things done this week. A mix of things. The trees are destined for eBay and I tidied up some Isengard Uruk-Hai that we won in an auction already painted to a decent standard. Not as quick as I expected but much faster than starting from scratch. Perhaps …

Warg Madness!
As you can see, I finished some more Wargs. These all have been made to be riderless. I also finished a bat swarm and some terrain pieces. With this lot I now have 20 riderless Wargs. Whilst working on these, as they were almost done I realized I should have filled in the seams on …
More Wargs!
So, as you can see I finished some more Wargs… and movement trays (only 50 more to go)… and some pack beasts! Most of the Wargs were won in an auction already painted to a decent standard, I just did my usual tweaks. A couple were from another auction and had to be done from …
To the last skeleton!
The last 36 skeletons…. finally! I am glad to have this behind me. Not my best work but not too bad either I think. You can judge for yourselves. I dislike square bases but otherwise, if we were using skeletons for any of our projects, I would be ok with using these. Various different manufacturers, …
Getting tired of skeletons…
I have so many projects I want to work on. More than I have time for to be honest. But right now my priority is to clear away some old project bits and move them on. So skeletons are at the top of the list. And real world stuff has gotten in the way of …
Things finished, on hold and just beginning…
I tend to have too many projects on the go at once, so it feels like a long time between finishing things… but when I do finish a bunch all at once it feels great. As you can see I got a lot finished this past week, even though we did not get any gaming …

The work continues… but for today, Happy Thanksgiving!
Whilst I have been staying busy this past week today I am resting a bit today and taking stock. My wonderful wife is making a fine feast so we can celebrate today in style…. and I am very thankful for all the wonderful things in my life, such as my family. I wish all of …

Spiders… why did it have to be spiders…
As I have mentioned before, I have mild arachnophobia. I know it is foolish to be afraid of something that I know can not hurt me but that is the point of phobias… they are irrational. I keep trying to tell myself that lesson… fear is not real, that it is a product of my …
Ever onward…
While we did not get any gaming done, I did manage to finish quite a bit. Almost all of the figures are destined for EBay but a couple are for us, as is the terrain and unit trays. First up I wanted to show an example of my “product improvement”. EBay auctions that I have …
So many trays…
So another busy weekend where no games were played. I finished a few things, sabot unit trays that will most likely be used for terrain rather than troops. Some GW Seraphon/Lizardmen fo EBay and a bunch of GW Numenoreans that I converted to Black Numenoreans… which had no success selling on eBay so converted back …
