Today I have:
dry-brushed the gunk on the rank 4 bases
sprayed ranks 3 and 4 with matt varnish
tufted, gravelled and flocked the rank 3 and 4 bases
taken a lot of photos of the whole bleedin' lot; resized them (and cropped a couple) then selected a number of them to send to Curt
written a blurb to accompany the pics
sent the selected pics and the blurb to Curt
When I decided to start these 3 weeks ago I thought I'd be pushing things to get them finished before the end of the Challenge. Well here I am having finished them and I still have 4 days left to get something else painted and sent off to Curt. The problem is that all I've got that's ready to paint are some more bloody Swiss! Can I face doing some more of them?
very well done pushing through with these I just hope I can do the same with the last few SYW French bits
ReplyDeletePeace James
One last push!
ReplyDeleteI must say that I am amazed at the number of figures you have produced in such a short time
Come on you know you can do it!
ReplyDeleteAmazing output it has to be said
Ian
Of course you can, work women work!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat output. Very impressed - it's taken me 3 years to get something on my bog.
ReplyDeleteOne question though what's your gunk?
@ JamesB - thankjs! Fingers crossed that you get your 7YW stuff done in time :)
ReplyDelete@ David - I'll definitely give it one last go. Whether I'll finish them in time is another question
@ Ian - we'll see, we'll see
@ Ray - 4 days, 48 figures to paint? I suppose it's do-able
@ Dannoc - thanks! The gunk I use is a mix of acrylic modeling past (3 parts), acrylic coarse texture gel (1 part) and brown ink added until I get the colour I'm after. The ratio of paste and texture gel varies a bit between armies depending on the look I'm after.
