What's the world coming to?

Despite being cold, today was sunny and good opportunity to do some varnishing.

That's all 30 of my Pulp Figures Melanesian figures now finished and varnished.

I've just got to find somewhere to store them now!
​
​A while ago when waiting for some supplies to arrive, I took the opportunity to finish painting the last few remaining Ver'men (Obviously not Skaven!) 
that I had lying around on the lead mountain, they came from Black Tree Designs. These joined the Melanesians on the varnishing table.

From Midlam Miniatures are 3 Red Hook Horrors, only one of which I painted red! However, I find the idea of flesh and poo coloured monsters appealing. These were painted earlier in the year and are now varnished.

18 more pulp personalities painted and varnished.

That's all of them done, unless they're some more lying around that I haven't spotted. Which is quite likely!

2 of them are wearing kilts, I've hidden them in the back. Painting tartan is something that eludes me still.

The figures here are a mixture of Copplestone Casting's 'Back of Beyond' figures, Pulp Figures, Artizan Design's 'Thrilling Tales' figures and a couple Bad Squiddo figures.

Finally it's time to make a start on those WWII Soviets.

I've been slowly but surely painting since my last update 3 months ago.

Today I varnished 21 pulp personality figures.

They're a mixture of Pulp Figures Pulp Heroes & Personalities, Copplestone Castings' Back of Beyond Adventures and Footsore Miniatures' Irish War of Independence figures.

I'm now about 75% of the way through painting all my pulp personalities.

After that I have to move on to WWII Russians and I need to varnish some vehicles I've got laying around.

There was a gap in the weather on the 21st February that allowed me to varnish the last 9 figures that I'd painted.

It took me about a week to paint all 9 - which is quick going for me.

Painted and varnished 18 figures for Gameblast, various pulp figures and the like.

Unfortunately, the photos I took looked crap! So may some more at a later date.

The second blog post...

Yes I know it's now 2020.
And yes, it's taken nearly a year to prepare to write the next post for this blog.

But I have been doing some painting during all this time... honest...
So I'm going to try post photos I took of the miniatures I painted from February to December!

13th November 2019

These figures were photographed on the 13th November 2019.
These are the first of the 'pulp' figures for my GameBlast20 game - The Indiana Jones Charity Globe Trot.

These are the first of my pulp figures.
They are mostly from Bob Murch's Pulp Figures I think. They are great pulp figures.

The figure on the furthest right with the shotgun is from Footsore Miniatures Irish war of independence' range.
​
Although it looks like they are now unavailable. Which is a shame as they are generic enough to be useful for pretty much any 1920's & 30's setting

These are Afrika Korps from Artizan Designs. 
​They represent my 1st attempt at painting 'historical' figures.
​
They are nice figures that strike a balance between providing detail and ease of painting.

These are Thuggee cultists from Pulp Figures. Again they're for The Indiana Jones Charity Globe Trot.

I've painted some of them in the yellow and white scheme I saw on the Pulp Figures website. The others are painted in red and black as seen in 'Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom'.

The mine carts and track all come from Ainsty Castings.

8 of the mine carts were painted for GameBlast19 (Which was before the end of February 2019.), they've only just been varnished.
The track has all been painted and varnished recently.

There you have it. That's all the photo's I have.
I've painted more than (I must have!?!) this over 2019, it's just there's no photos of them, honest... You'll have to take my word for it!

Hopefully, the blog will see some use over 2020.
