On the workbench - June 2026

So May turned out to be a complete distraction from painting. First my insurer decided to write off my car so I had to hunt for a new one, and then I realised with the sudden onset of hot weather I could get the 3D printer started again. The month ended with an outing to UK Games Expo, quite an experience. Also I managed to sell off all my Winter terrain and armies. But overall not much progress on the painting so I am working on:
  • Almoravid heavy cavalry (almost there, needs a final push on all the detailing)
  • Four units of SYW British infantry (All primed, half with their facings blocked in - no progress in May))
  • Complete the Vietnamese buildings (Primed and first coat now painted (base colours are now on I just need to finish off the final washes, etc. They were already good enough to use in a game last month))
  • 3 units of WSS French cavalry (Assembled and washed ready for priming - Still)
  • Paint the wild west buildings acquired at Games Expo
  • Complete the latest 3D printing campaign, mainly Napoleonic Russian Infantry, plus various ypgrades/replacements for existing vehicles
Finally Phalanx is on this month and the club is putting on the battle of Nantwich 1644
