Some of this weeks output (minor update March 16)

So, not as prolific as other weeks, but still a fair amount of stuff got finished, and a goodly amount have some paint on them. I am most happy about the crypt entrance pictured above. It has been in my collection, for at least a decade, if not two decades. It was in  a bits box for the longest of times, before finally getting based, and ultimately primed.Then it just sat around in that condition for years.
No reason for this, just kept putting it off. However this new paint surge is mostly about tackling any long standing 'to be done jobs' No doubt I will find other items that need to be dealt with, hopefully nothing quite as bad as this simple bit of scatter terrain .

Making two boats out of, well one boat of a larger scale

Making these:

 

Out of this:

 

Painted items since February 14th up to February 21st (part 2)

Apparently cannot count, there are 8 of these not the 7 I listed.

Updated these, glossed the eyes, & blued the generator on the heavy weapon figure

Take us to your leader

Painted items done since January 1st to February 14th

So, it has been a good start to the year. Last year it seemed that I could not make myself paint anything. This year I got the bug, with a sudden desire to tackle all of my All Quiet on the Martian Front.

However, now that bug has mutated into a desire to paint anything that comes to hand! Right now I am going after some figures that have been languishing on my painting desk for years. I also am attempting to take care of all of the plot points markers, and small scatter scenery that needs to be simply finished off and to not stay unpainted and unused. This is a starter, more to come...

AQMF Civilians, just the thing for a hungry Martian invader

As mentioned somewhere, I finished painting these yesterday, everything except the wash. Well that and the decorating of the bases was done today, and here they are. There are 10 small two person bases, and 15 large 3 bases. I think they came out okay, some very good some not so good. The best thing about 18mm is that they are hard to see, well for my eyes and the eyes of most of my fellow players!

AQMF - Gatherer Tripod proxies

A face only a (do they have mothers) could love?

After sitting on a shelf for years, I finally found a reason/need to paint up three Parroom Station tripods. I have been prepping for another game of AQMF, specifically the harvest scenario, and realized that I need at least one gatherer tripod. Thankfully I had three mostly built and primed 28mm tripods but they had no baskets to keep their prisoners. Now what can I use to represent a basket...?

All Quiet on the Martian Front - Ragers

Didn't you kill my brother? I know you did...

So with the weekend deadline (pardon the pun) looming, what should I finish painting first but some zombie/rager type figures, that are not required for this Saturday...

All Quiet on the Martian Front - civilians and more drones

Next on the painting table, and hopefully finished this week in time for Saturday, are some human figures and some more drones.  I have 25 civilians stands and 10 Rager stands all primed and 'muddied
up'.  Most are in groups of three, the few two figure stands represent humans in less stressful moments.

As for the drones I have three more scorpions, three more shock drones and 6 more regular drones.
This will bring my total to 21 drones. These too will be required for this Saturday, if we are to play the harvest scenario.
