114 MTG: Adding the Box of Undesireables
Since I last updated here I’ve gone in the the Box of undesireables (The stuff I’ve been pretending doesn’t exist) and pulled out all my Dreadball and gotten it painted up for the spring cleaning challenge. I’ve also built an Optimus Prime model kit. With that lot out of the way I may as well bring the remaining models in to the fold and admit I’m going to paint them too. I also won a box of 20 Stargrave models and the books. That means my To Go total has just risen by 53 models! I’m still ignoring stuff that’s yet to be delivered.
So what do I think I have left?
KoW Skeletons x20
Busts and display pieces x8
3D printed regualr models x8
Ronaldo the Bard
Loka Fire set x8
KD:M Modular warriors etc x29
Stargrave Troops x20
Asterians x10
Plague x10
Masons (Not arrived yet) x6
Aeon Tresspass Odyssey Wave 1 (Not arrived yet) x27
Aeon Tresspass Odyssey Wave 2 (Not arrived yet) x??
I think there may be one or two other bits not accounted for here, too, like an oooold WHFB Goblin Chariot. No idea what that could be used for these days.
It seems that when Kingdom Death turned up I was already part way through painting 6 models, and I have a challenge model to paint up for MonkeysWithFire. More progress was made over the weekend.
I was trying to match GW’s Martian Ironearth/Ironcrust above, but just using regular basing material and paint. It’s not quite there.
