Received these two gits, one handsome and one Ray, from my Secret Santa plus a couple of bags of modern British and a further vehicle to come!!!Very generous and very much appreciated!!


Ray in his usual pose and me with a coke and a katana (spot on in fact).....


While at Blog-Con  Andrew (Loki) gave me my religious alter ego Pope Francis, a truly excellent model......


I received this original and quite amazing miniature from Anne O' Leary plus some pieces for other people to have and a couple of the new Reaper Bones miniatures (Golems) which I've painted for the challenge......

Magic Painting Table, 900 points Painting Challenge, Pot Noodles and Boobs anyone?

The painting challenge starts this Sunday for 60 fellow lunatics and 1 chief lunatic (Curt himself) in his 4th Annual Analogue Hobbies Challenge......

My painting has suffered a little in the last 6 months in output so I thought the challenge might be a good way to light a little flame of colour into my hobby and have started to do a little at work on night shifts in readiness for the challenge.........900 points here we come!

Sofie does a painting table every Saturday on her blog, mine will just be on any night I can.......



What's this....nothing on the table at work!


Shazam.......painting table!


Rebasing some US Marine armour, a Nazgul from Sam from his blog competition and one of the challenge entries, black primer, black coke which sometimes by mistake doubles as painting water!


Now you don't......well before the day shift arrives anyway!


It's over here in the press above the sink behind the pot noodles that we love to hate but they are hot and that's something at 3 in the morning, each officer has a space like this in the tiny kitchen.....

......and of course some boobs!














Good luck to all.............
