Title: What Are YOU Painting? (Show it off HERE!)
Post by: tim in saskatoon on October 06, 2012, 01:42:47 PM
Well this is the Miniature Games board - not all of you can be using pre-painted stuff...? Or committing the heresy of playing with (gasp!) unpainted miniatures!?

So what HAVE you been painting lately? Doesn't matter what game it's for... Doesn't matter what scale... Doesn't matter how "good" it is... If it's finished, lets see it!

I'll start... This week I've been working on 28mm figures from Eureka Miniatures USA (https://www.eurekaminusa.com/default.aspx). Most of them are Modern French Foreign Legionnaires - and a few Cold War Commies in Chemical Suits... I will be using all of these with Force on Force (http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/41837/force-on-force).

(https://sask.games/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2F2.bp.blogspot.com%2F-xzrJKekAZS4%2FUGytt5eAsbI%2FAAAAAAAASOc%2FYUsafvOCKcw%2Fs400%2F03October201205.jpg&hash=a3382f78092ab86d43ca4f61e123d39e27d90e49)
This was the first of the Foreign Legionnaires I painted up - a sniper in the French Desert Pattern camouflage.

Another sniper - this time in the French Forest/Central European Pattern camouflage which I plan to do most of my Foreign Legionnaires in.

(https://sask.games/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2F4.bp.blogspot.com%2F-tqzW3YsK99Q%2FUGytyMuMeXI%2FAAAAAAAASO8%2FMd0cUlIW838%2Fs1600%2F03October201209.jpg&hash=d88458988cbf7c308150efed08a7e049f50a0b96)
and another one...

(https://sask.games/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2F1.bp.blogspot.com%2F-XxXGguIOQpA%2FUHB1IS12zKI%2FAAAAAAAASV4%2FyGPEpd-wsYg%2Fs1600%2F06October201201.jpg&hash=65f0a253cc4ce093905de927783144eb92588180)
After that I started painting them in bigger batches.... I have three more fire teams of four to finish up.

(https://sask.games/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2F4.bp.blogspot.com%2F-xfs0JNm5n6k%2FUG4lGi5XAoI%2FAAAAAAAASUc%2F3yfPtisUghc%2Fs1600%2F04October201201.jpg&hash=fa40cc2bd18be01d23a51b2bcc6518b145b54321)
Also I knocked off a couple of Cold War Commies in Chemical kit. I think my next order to Eureka will be to pick up a platoon of these!

So what are the rest of you painting?!

You could post them here when you're done... Or start a new thread for showing off terrain projects?!

A few more items I've been working on...

(https://sask.games/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2F1.bp.blogspot.com%2F-KnnzO9yMofE%2FUId8Vj8qQdI%2FAAAAAAAASzc%2FE7XkcyoQq_g%2Fs1600%2F23October201201.jpg&hash=e9d9e73a1c3190b97c9e5c40265f93b204a6d246)

28mm Rhodesian Light Infantry from Eureka miniatures.

Anyone else? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Bueller? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4zyjLyBp64)

Surely somebody else on this forum actually paints miniatures...?

Thanks Lance!

Looking Good, Mike! Keep 'em coming!

Anyone else out there painting?

...and just to get into the spirit of the season... Here are some zombies I finished up yesterday:

(https://sask.games/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2F1.bp.blogspot.com%2F-xLZTlXsPZEI%2FUNtss9iqE_I%2FAAAAAAAAThs%2FnZKhpUu6Mic%2Fs1600%2F26December1201.jpg&hash=423fc47f4a3272fdf443e10e4c5511e7c1513b9f)
Most of these are from Cold War Miniatures (except the chicken mascot zombie that's front and center - that I noticed AFTER taking the picture that I hadn't actually finished his base!? DOH!? Anyway, he's from Victory Force Miniatures...).

(https://sask.games/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2F2.bp.blogspot.com%2F-v7Q04omtHCU%2FUNiwWY97M9I%2FAAAAAAAAThY%2Fw55ymPpv_rY%2Fs1600%2F24December1207.jpg&hash=e5e5a4e44570b70b366e7004e39bdbb754787678)
...and nothing says "Festive Holiday Season" like two guys on a motorcycle with an RPG.

Happy Holidaze everyone!

Grey Knights Dreadnought for me.  I'm still waiting on most of my hobby supplies to get here, so there's some stuff left, but it's more or less ready for the table.
