Trial for some wound markers - sand on and waiting to dry. These are on 20mm rounds. My shock markers to match are on 25mm to differentiate.

Cleaned up lots of thick polystyrene cement off the model. Lots some rivets and bits but think it will be okay with some rust/corrosion added. Tread sourced, now just need to cast a scythe for the wheel. Then make a banner pole!

After 2 weeks of holiday hand felt different so had to overcome that for first session. Did all the musket barrels and bayonets with a pen so that was easy. The red however took a lot lot longer than it should

Three battalions undercoated. Annoyingly the sword I mended broke again. Any advice appreciated on how to repair a sword that’s snapped in two would be very appreciated

I get much less painted over the summer as the rhythm of life changes with the kids on hols. So last chance to get some prep in… 2 battalions of French 1 battalion of ottomans 2 deployment points FIW Rangers Now have I got enough cans of undercoat 🤔

As he’s been on TV a fair bit recently I thought I’d dig my Count Binface out. I got mine in 2021 when I think it was a charity miniature for the NHS? Better paint job that I remember! Was my stargrave captain 🤣

My redoubt enterprise fences after their glow up. Missing pieces and breakages before. It took up until the flock to look right but pretty pleased with these now

‘Cabbages’ (obviously) have arrived to finish my Russian houses. I’ve got a bag somewhere already but couldn’t find them 🤷‍♂️

Fences got an agrax wash (cobbled together from dregs, medium and water to go the distance as I’d forgot I was pretty much out). In fact some of the dregs were from an original big pot 😬 The last of the gold. This better work…
