Warhammer Fantasy Revisited

Am apparently feeling a little burned out with regard to painting after the push in Orctober but still keen to keep the momentum going. Plan is to knock off my current ‘in progress’ (or at least the stuff that’s presently looking at me…) warhammer fantasy projects by the end of the calendar year so I can then mix things up a bit with historicals and some other stuff I want to progress (LoTR, Frostgrave etc). So, broad overview in approximate order of priority is as follows:

Pirates – 3 blocks of 10 foot in progress, plus a captain, caster and standard bearer. 33 minis total. Need to do the metals, ivory, hair colouring then ready to varnish and finish.

Miscellaneous characters – A Middenheim BSB; mostly done, need to do another coat of white on the banner detail then a targeted wash, varnish and base. Bretonnian character, just need to paint the horse then varnish and base. Dogs of war Paymaster. Only primed so far… 3 minis total.

Chaos – Slaanesh I have 2 blocks of foot ready to base, need to finish the character (base colours are started) and 20 daemonettes (Skin tone airbrushed on). Khorne 2 blocks of 15 foot, 2 chariots and a character. Tzeentch 2 blocks of 15 foot and a block of 5 knights (don’t know if I’ll get to any more Tzeentch characters). Nurgle 2 blocks of foot (one of 15 and one of 16 which is just messing with my head…), 2 characters on foot and 5 knights. Other than the Slaanesh models everything is primed and has the armour main colour airbrushed on.

So if I draw a line there we have 162 minis to finish, excluding the Slaanesh foot that are already up to the basing stage. I’ll try to do the chaos bases all in one go. I’ll also try to paint all the horses at once to make the process a little more efficient. If I can get the horses out of the way and finish the pirates and miscellaneous characters then working on all the chaos at once should be fairly quick due to the consistency of some of the detail colours. Will see how we go anyhow 🙂
