Making tracks.

This time we have a printed project. This a "Maverick" from a Kickstarter I was in a couple of years ago. You got the .stl friles from which you could print the model in a wide range of variants. This one is the basic APC variant.

The model is designed so that you can make it with operating doors and hatches. The roof doors on this one are stuff open as I had a heap of trouble with the hinges.

I was going for a well used, dirty look.

There is a full interior including drivers position.

So I even added a driver. A GW servetor as this will be joining my Space Marines.

Itsy Bitsy Spider...

....so of course it is huge!

This figure actually belongs to my son but he let me paint it. Its a GW model from their Age of Sigmar Goblins box set.

Really pleased with how this turned out.

Keeping up is hard to do.

Now I know I have been quiet for a while. I got busy finishing stuff for CanCon and just life in general that I didn't get around to posting. I didn't paint much early in the year and I am only now getting back into it. I was always thinking that I would do another post soon. Yeah, real soon. Then I looked back and realised that I hadn't posted anything since August. Since AUGUST! Opps.

So this is an attempt to get back on track.

Seven Years War.

Austrian Chevuax Legers. Figures by Eureka Miniatures.

 Austrian Dragoons. Figures by Old Glory.

Austrian Curassiers. Figures by Old Glory.

Austrian Horse Grenadiers. Figures by old Glory. Coat and belt colours vary as these units were made up of the combined Horse Grenadier companies of 3-4 regiments.

Napoleonic.

Austrian Dragoons. Figures unknown.

 

I have had these guys so long I have forgotten who made them. Also I had the riders but no mounts. So I printed the horses on my FDM printer but as the model I used had no harness on the horse I had to model that afterward. And I had to modify the model to make the riders fit. A lot of work.

 

Warhammer 40K.

All of these figures are at least 25 years old, some are more than 30. Many are the old plastic "beakies" from the original box set. Some are the first release metals.

First Tactical Squad.

Second Tactical Squad.

Scout Squad. A mix of the first Scout blister pack metals and Veteran blister pack metals.

Librarian. Original metal figure.

Captain. From the first "Space Marine Leaders" blister pack in metal. Rather boring compared to the sargent in the first squad from the same pack.

Role Playing.

Cleric of Cayden Calien for Pathfinder. Figure from Reaper Bones.

Android Operative for Starfinder. Figure by Dark Sword.

I think that gets me up to date. Lots of stuff not quite finished sitting on my painting desk. Here's hoping that I can keep up ... this time.
