Back to the Brushes 106

A brief up date on this years painting challenge progress or lack of it to be fair!. The main challenge this year has been finding the time to paint. With a reduced challenge level it has still be at major struggle to achieve a level of painting time to complete any figures to enter into this years challenge.

So what has been started and what has stalled? Simple really, nearly everything has stalled and new things have been started.

Below are a few stands for Critical Mass from Ground Zero Games including mortars, plasma cannons and HMG's. Four of each to be precise and these are moving on steadily.

Next are Recon troopers from the Critical Mass ARC range to tie with previously painted figures. Still to be undercoated as you can see but am hoping to have at least a reduced company completed by the end of the challenge.

Next is where the real change happened, in that at the start of the challenge the intention was to paint a Basic Impetus Macedonian army. Well this just isn't going to happen. The archers below will be completed and possibly the prodromoi and slingers but the rest of the army will remain undercoat black at present. Just one of those things, this army requires more time than is currently available to paint.

Three 20mm WW2 German armoured cars should also be ready by the end of the challenge, which will complete the German vehicles for this period.

Lastly, the Augmented Troops from Critical Mass that will be finished very soon as the varnish is drying in this picture.

There will be more regular updates in the coming weeks

Cheers for now
