@a27cromwell wow, all of those tanks look great! And good luck with progressing your tank riders too 🙂 Nice conversions on the infantry too – you must have quite the bits box by now then?

@biggabum hope the missus is feeling better soon. Nice to hear that your paintwork was that well regarded that you got such a nice price for it on Ebay 🙂

@mage you sort of threw me with the reference to 1st ed – I guess I still sort of mentally process Aos as sort of 9th ed WHFB rather than something different… Nice to hear your son likes to spend time with you 🙂 Nice start on the batRep 🙂 Arcworlde does look like a lot of fun. I probably should read more Pratchett… Have only read Good Omens and Wee Free Men. GF has quite the sizeable collection but I tend to spend most of my reading time reading rule/source books 🙂

@elessar2590 yeah good point – my oversight. I really should go and amend my post to read first… 😛 Yes the gremlin was fun. There was actually a second ne on top of the necromancers axe but he didn’t really show up in the photos I posted. Nice work on the LoTR characters! The barding on Theoden’s horse is really nice!

Got a little stuff done today. Messed around with greenstuff enough to know I can probably get away with converting marines to look like salamanders easily enough bu sculpting scaled tabards. Not so sure re the flames on the legs and scaly skin on the shoulder pad that I was originally considering but will give it a bit more practice and see how we go.

Test scheme on an Ork – doesn’t look this dark IRL but if I am going to dip the mini I think I will have to brighten it up a little more otherwise the varnish will pull the tone too far back towards the dark green. I might go for an olive green base and work in a more yellow ochre highlight as I blend up.

And then got distracted progressing historicals…

In positive news my printer is now behaving itself. Before and after photos of the same print job follow – can you spot the difference? 😛
