No, not yet. :(

A friend got his and shared out his extras, so I've painted one ship:

Today I met Tony Robinson and talked about Maid Marion and her Merry Men. :)
Forget about yesterday, don't worry about tomorrow because all that matters is today.

@AndrewGPaul: Nice! Every day I get home from work hoping I'm one of those backers whose rewards got sent out without shipping notification, heh.

(Also, shoutout for the Omega! We played the heck out of Call to Arms back in the day - sort of a shame some of the rules got so wonky in places.)

Hi there folks, MtP here, you might remember from such shows as...

Humblest apologies for not posting for ages but things have not exactly been great of late so hobbies have taken a definite back seat. That said, as things have started to return to normality I have resumed the 'Forever War' i.e.'scaling the lead mountain'.

I now have a huge pile of Plastic Napoleonic French which will hopefully appear on a BP battlefield sometime next year. I plan to paint them up as Marshal Davout's 3rd Corps c1809, which will be the 3rd time and 3rd scale I have painted the same army!

I have also assembled and prepped my 1942, Bir Harkeim Free French.
Here are the first of many...

A section from the 1st Pacific Battalion (from France's colonies in New Caledonia and Tahiti)

And a 75mm QF Gun en Portee in the back of a Truck!

Didn't get a whole lot done today - I sort of realized that if I tear through this last batch of Fallschirmjagers, I won't have much on my hobby plate til Dropfleet arrives, heh. So I basically just did their brown/grey drybrush undercoat and trousers and called it a night. I'll plug away at them over the weekend and think about how to approach the tank.

MtP - good stuff! Love the weathering on the truck.

Also went to the 100 yen store today and stocked up on some stuff to bash up some roads, fields, walls, and hedges in 15mm. Whee!

I spent about 4 hours tonight applying flock to terrain and minis. Turns out you need a lot of flock to cover a table.

watched a bit of luke cage, and painted some shading on a tentacle. Dem tentacles are more time consuming than i had anticipated. Anyway. Painting and TV watching was done.

Not a very interesting update, I know. I hang my head in shame. :oops:
current (2019) hobby interests

Wow. And then Corona happened. Just....crickets, all the way through to 2023...

To parallel MIJ's post, I did some puttying, interspersed with Luke Cage, as my brain is not big enough to do two things at once. Show seems to be catching it's stride. gettin' into that groove brother, yo....yo? The brothers still say "Yo?" I am, as you know Konrad "Downtown" Brown, but my street is sadly out of date. Up to episode 6 myself.
The puttying is me busting out the greenstuff to start on some ladies apparel for the Diggachicks.

Was up until 2am doing everything stretch goal page for a KS. Not very happy with it, but it's better than a wall of text.

Planning to paint a Minotaur, 6 cultists, 2 chaos warriors, and a landspeeder over the next two days.
