Continuing a tradition since 2021, here's some of my favourites from the line-up for How I Paint Things this year.

The K47 British box so far. I'm quite enamored of those larger bits being the funky Warlord Resin - kinda plastic, everyone lumps it in with Siocast, but it's been nice to work with. What interested me is the walker being mostly 'traditional' resin with the more detailed bits cast in Warlord resin.

These are out and away improvements over the old metal miniatures. It doesn't hurt to rough up the contact points a little as with anything you're using super glue on, but man... The MkII big boys are a doddle to assemble. Gonna finish the trio, then the MkI team.

Progress at last! At least one of the half finished bases cluttering up my desk got finally finished. Figures Victrix with Aventine heads and Gripping Beast casualty. Only wish those Victrix capes weren't so 'flowy'

Here are some of my own, from the desk pics of the tree creatures that I painted for @steamforgedgames.bsky.social Epic Encounters range.
Had a lot of fun with these & I think they came out looking super cool! 💕 I will always have a big soft spot for sinister tree creatures :3

Tried to use the new zoom feature at work today where it zooms in on your face. Zoomed in on the Mojo JoJo fuggler on my bookshelf instead.

I really need an actual camera, not just my phone. Yes, it's 'alright,' but this is still tweaked within an inch of being legible to get it closer to how it looks in reality! Hey ho, gotta make do!

The Creality Halot-X1 is an interesting beast, for sure. I wasn't sure about the 'no leveling' claim with such a weird build plate, but it was absolutely true... and that odd design lets you twist the rectangular panels back and forth to work off prints without getting out a scraper. Pretty funky!

I literally have to prime something from a rattle can. There's no getting around it - in part, it is the whole point of the endeavour. I look outside. It's snowing.
...fuck it, we ball.

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?
Don't worry, Carol. :) We're fine! There's no need to worry about 'rescuing' this individual.

I finished off the German late war SP guns made from French tank chassis. I added Skytrex Command Decision crew and plenty of foliage to keep them safe from Allied airpower. #wargaming #painting #ww2

I saw an article discussing how couples that've been together a long time end up with an indecipherable 'language' that only they understand, and it made me smile. Mrs Sledge and I alone know what a 'jazz-funk fusion' meal is in our house, or if one of us is 'on the Saratoga.'
