Issue #3 of Wargames Painting and Modelling is finally out, and includes an article I wroute about <a href="http://www.thecourtjestersstudio.com/WPM/download.html" target="blank">painting verdigris</a>. Neat.

Had a busy weekend in non-painting activities, so only a little progress to update. I've been hunting down reference material and feel a bit more in tune with the Victorian theme.<br> <img src="http://www.madponies.net/images/WIP/VSF/personalities2.jpg"> <br> I've also made a bunch of progress...

Started in on the Victorian personalities' skin.<br> Happy New Year all. : )<br> <img src="http://www.madponies.net/images/WIP/VSF/personalities1.jpg">

Here is the Space:1889 Victorian Sci-Fi project, all based and primed. Daunting!<br> <img src="http://www.madponies.net/images/WIP/VSF/000001.jpg">

I had a bunch of greenstuff mixed up to fix some bases on the VSF project. . . While it was drying I couldn't do much else, so I thought I'd use up a little of it on a small conversion. I dremeled the crown+helmet off of a Robert the Bruce figure, and decided to see if I could just make him into...

Okay, yuletide happenings are finally done, time to get back to work. The empire reiksguard go back into a holding pattern (hopefully not as long of one as previously) as a load of figures for a big comission finally arrived, as well as one single figure that I'll be doing for another customer...

Knocked another 7 out:<br> <img src="http://www.madponies.net/images/WIP/reiksguard6.jpg">

hurrah, hurrah!<br> <img src="http://www.madponies.net/images/WIP/reiksguard5.jpg">

I finished the hose of all the remaing reiksguard I have primed at the moment. I've got a comission arriving in the mail soon, so I know I won't get to finish this unit uninterrupted, but after the last 5 I got motivated to at least move these all forward a stage.<br> <img...

<img src="http://www.madponies.net/images/WIP/reiksguard3.jpg"><br> I'm quite pleased with these. It's only a fraction of the figures I actually have for this unit in my old empire army, but if I keep doing them in this style I think they'll look great. I started it with 8 about 4 years ago, and...

I'd forgotten how much I really like these miniatures. Some of their big bows I could do without on pure aesthetics, but it fits their idiom a bit I suppose.<br> <img src="http://www.madponies.net/images/WIP/reiksguard2.jpg">

the amazon cheerleaders had to take a dip in paint thinner. . .they acquired some chunky surface texture due to poorly shaken/old paint. While they soaked in the spa last night I picked up a few of the reiksguard that have been collecting serious dust on my desk. Did a bit more on them...

<p>Or actually, my back is making me feel like a baby. I had a weird knot in my back start a couple days ago...it was annoying but tolerable. Last night I accidentally aggrivated it while trying to adjust the blankets on my bed. Sounds silly, but I must have strained it just right because it...

I'm trying to track down 3 figures from the now defunct Iliad games: Murata, female Aeromancer of Heraklyn, and the Air Elementals.Any leads on tracking these down would be greatly appreciated.<a...

Finished this samurai tonight... I'm very happy with him. the more washed out colors are a bit of a departure for me. It's nice to not do everything in high saturation. Do you think he needs eyebrows?<br> <img src="http://www.madponies.net/images/WIP/twilightsamurai3.jpg"><br> The last two...

I have too many ideas for random games. Especially those that would require a sizable undertaking to bring to fruition. The latest is a near-future gang fight type game in the Shadowrun / Shockforce idiom. Random underground / scavenger / freelance gangs vs Corporate Defense squads in Seattle...
