It's another lull cycle

With my new school term starting and some other event requiring my painting space, it's not likely I can spend any time on the hobby in the next year.

Sadly, I'll have to hang up my painting brush for the time being.

First 3 maneaters complete

Finally done with the first 3 maneaters. Considering how little space there was on the scenic base to attach the mini, managed to glue in a way to allow them to rank up.

First three maneaters almost done

Had some good progress on the Titanforge maneaters.

Quite happy with the light green color on the pants of the "musician". You can see he is armed with booze and has a medic armband on him, so the rest will know where he is when they need encouragement.

Also quite pleased with how the bandana guy turned out. Wanted them to look real "piratey" so that means plenty of out of sorts colors in clothing.

Put some good ole dip on them last night. Just have to finish the bases and stick them on. Then they'll be good to go

Maneater Updates

Managed to get some work done on those maneaters. Finished the base coat on my captain.

Originally did not want to dip but I can't bring myself to do the shades manually.. So. Dip them will be.

Got the color on the bases as well and had my first attempt at the water and waves. Looks pretty good if I may say so myself.

Maneater replacements

Picked up 6 of these guys from Titanforge during ETC to be meant as replacement for my metal maneaters.

Already started on the base and working on the skin for three of them. Working with resin is fantastic as I could reposition the hands using hot water.

My favorite would be the guy holding the wine bottle as my captain and the dude with more booze on his belt as my musician.
