Flat out busy

Sorry for the distinct lack of activity on here. I have been flat out at work this last month and a bit.

I have 10 days off over xmas so ill be planning a lot of painting. Its going to be the only chance ill have in the near future to get anything done...

So stay tuned. Thanks for being so patient with me. :)

Did some painting over the weekend

I got a bit of painting done over the weekend. Made a start on another of the Ogres. The musician. Havent got it to a stage where its worth taking photos yet but I will get some up once I get a bit more work done.

Cricket got rained out over the weekend so I didnt play and unfortunately the Aus v SA test was rained out as well so I couldnt even watch it. At least it gave me an excuse to do some painting.

Weekend adventures

I had the work christmas party over the weekend so didnt do any painting, however yesterday I rearranged my lounge/dining room so that I can sit in front of the TV while painting. That way I dont get distracted by TV and have to stop painting to watch. lol Now I can enjoy 2 hobbies at once.

Did some more work on the Savage Orc Boar Boy last week. Have nearly finished him so once I do ill post some shots.

New WIP

This is the savage orc boar boy that ive been working on over the last few weeks.

Im really happy with the way its turning out. :)

Painting this week

I played cricket on the weekend and I was surprised that after batting for 20 overs, doing a considerable amount of running and then fielding for a couple of hours, I was not sore on Sunday.

Ill be doing some painting this week while i am on night shift so I hope to upload some pics early next week. I know ive said that numerous times over the past few weeks. But this time it might just come true. :)

Stay tuned.

Trying to get out of the house more...

In an effort to lose about 30Kg... Ive started playing cricket with a local club in Toowoomba. Gets me out of the house 2 nights during the week and then the game on saturday afternoon. Given the fact that my fitness isnt what it used to be, it takes me a lot longer to get over the exercise than it should lol.

So my painting time has been cut into by my recovery time.

So there may not be any posts on here for a while. at least until I get myself back to a point where it doesnt take me 3 days to get over the game.

Be patient... Ill get some pics up as soon as I can.

New plan for painting

I had a party at my place a couple of weeks ago, and as a result I decided to pack away all of my painting and miniatures stuff so that none of it got broken.

So last weekend, when I was deciding what to start painting, I came up with a plan to prioritise what im going to paint. I will be leaving everything packed up and just pulling out one miniature at a time. That way I dont get distracted by all the other projects I have on the go. This may not work for some things, mainly when painting a squad of minis, That way I can maintain the paint scheme and such while working across multiple minis.

Its working well so far. Have been working on a Savage Orc Boar Boy this last week. Its coming along nicely. Ill take some photos this weekend and post them on here.
