My take on this aspect of the table top gaming experience. Not an expert just one person trying to do what he can & trying to demonstrate that anyone can do it.

Made it to my self imposed target, and then some





Managed to finish 30 figures today, bringing my total to 105, just over my goal.
Some (2) were finish off jobs started many months ago, but the remaining figures were all from this week, 19 were started and finished today.

Up first is the Immortal Battalion, resurrected soldiers controlled by The Mad Doctor

Followed up by Radon Zombies!!!!

Back to Barsoom (Mars)




Inspired by the white apes that I painted the other day, I tackled some Green Martian warriors.

Another day, another paint job done

This time more Crocodile games figures. One giant Windigo, a summoner, and six minions.

I like these better than the Martian white apes. I went with a blue undercoat, and worked up from there. The apes had been a grey undercoat.

Martian white apes kind of sorta done

For all the layers that are on these, there is still not enough contrast, but there will be soon...


That's better, I think.

New Pulp Alley gang





They may not be quick, but they carry big sticks...?
So only 5 figures done today, I was distracted a bit, but rain tomorrow, and many more figures getting closer to be done.

Van Meer and his 'Oranje minions"


Another day, another group of figures. This time repurposed Warlord Games Ghost Warriors being used as minions for the conflicted Dr Van Meer. There are 15 in all, so three squads for Pulp Alley gangs, to assist the 'peace' loving Dr Van Meer.

They came out a lot more orange than I had envisioned, but in the end I like them. When not in service to Van Meer, they could also be used as VSF Ethernauts, or fancy deep sea divers.

So, the ghouls, were the next figures to be completed!


These were fun figures to paint, lots of detail on them. I tried a number of things this time around, spent some extra time on the teeth, built up the colours on the body (using the Vallejo Malefic paint set), and used extra stuff on the bases. Ten figures in all, added to the tally for this month! Total is now 34 which is not bad since I only just got back into painting last week. What next, stay tuned...

By your command



So it worked out that they were the next project to be done!
These were fun to paint, again using P3 paints base and highlight Khador red.
I am convinced these robots are from Old Glory, but I could not find them on their online catalog.

Next project, sort of


Can never have enough robot minions! So why 'next project sort of'? Well there are many things on my table right now, some there just for touch ups, others need to be finished (having been in a state of near completion for a long time) and primed but not started figures.

Eureka Anubis figures painted (updated paint colours listed for bases)


First output in a very long time.
Nineteen figures in all, 5 archers, 5 one handed/shield, 6 with two handed weapons, leader, musician and standard bearer.
