Hi everyone,

All the minis for this project are now painted up. I have literally painted all the hostiles I will ever need to play this game!

The last miniature was what I call ‘the creature from another dimension’. It definitely looks like something that came out of some anomaly!

Unlike the other figures, I painted this one over a period of three days, spending about 45mins to an hour per session.  I went about it this way because I did a lot of experimentation with my Speed Paints and washes. To be honest I did not achieve what I envisioned, but the result is good enough for this game.

Also over a period of three days I painted up the anomalies I made over the weekend with paperclips, polystyrene and gesso. The whirlwind type anomalies were simply given an application of purple speed paint. That is it!

The ball effects I wet-blended with artist acrylics and paint retarder to give me extra time to work.

I spent most of this afternoon working on a storage solution for these miniatures. Several months ago I ordered some Battletech from Ebay Germany and they were packed in a Star Wars Legion box.  So I went about creating compartments from cardboard to create some storage.

The picture below is only part of it.

Last but not least, I needed a copy of the rules – you can’t play a game without rules surely!  So I printed out my PDF copy and ring-binded it. This way it can be opened flat on the table or folded in on hand without damaging it.

I will bring this project to a close on Sunday with a group shot and the finished storage box.  An enjoyable week overall, I must admit.

So until Sunday keep your laser-gun batteries charged.
