Wip Wednesday- Napoleonic and LOTR

 Wip Wednesday 

A mixed batch this week as I finally finish stage 1 of my new painting and modelling area on the third floor, both bookcases are full and I need to still have the electrical completed along with a mount for the TV, but my painting desk is set up now and I still need to add the VMC for the extractor fan for the airbrush station. 

This week I have started on some dismounted Perry French Dragoons and my Calpe Kurmark Prussian Landwehr cavalry, horses are complete and onto the 1st Sqaudron figures hopefully done by Sunday.



I also assembled the Games Workshop Treebeard along with Pippin and Merry, plus a Bloodbowl hobbit team, all purchased last year during my Games Workshop visit when we were in the UK. On Tuesday in between painting, I tried the new Ammo blue plastic cement, it is really rapid and is better imho than the Tamiya green thin, 20 seconds pressed together, than ten minutes to dry. 



This morning I received my Piano Wargames Baden kickstarter and Piano plastic French, a little excited so the day was used to assemble the plastics and trim and clean the metals. The metals are exquisite figures, really looking forward to getting some paint on them over the next few weeks.  The French plastics are really nice  and will be a joy to paint the faces and weapons are excellent. 






Back to my French wargames club on Friday night to play Ècourcheurs with some of the chaps. I need to get my retinue painted in the next few weeks.

Cheers
Matt

Wip Wednesday- lots on the desk

 Quite a lot on the desk as I clear bits ready for more painting. As renovations are in full swing this week a bit motivation to get stuff done ready for undercoating before winter fully sets in! A big mix of ancients, revolutionary wars, 20mm Belgian and German bits
