7/21/10

I finished another 24 25mm Prussian Musketeer Battalion. 

7/15/10

I guess I didn't return to the Spanish SYW Cav. 

I finished 24 25mm SYW Prussian Musketeers to take to Steve's.  Eventually I will have a Prussian Infantry Brigade.

I did order today the 4 Russian 25mm Dragoon Regiments for the Great Northern War Project.  After they are painted, a big "after".  I need to save up for 16 pieces of 25 mm Artillery, which sells at $12 to $16 per figure from Front Rank.  I need to save my pennies.

6/15/10

Using the white undercoat with dye colors method I painted 15mm Napoleonic French Guard for the Age of Eagles game.

30 Old Guard Grenadiers and 30 old Guard Chausseurs. 

I will return to the Spanish SYW figs by working on the Cavalry.

6/14/10

I finally finished 8 12 man 15mm Spanish Infantry Battalions.  It took 7 months to find time to finish them.

I have gotten slow.

12/10/09

I started to paint the Spanish army for the Seven Years War.  Will I ever be done with the Sport of Kings Project?

12/6/09

I finished 16 25mm American Revolution figs for Redelfs.  At present, I do not have any painting orders to fill.  I must move on to the mountain of unpainted lead I own.  The horror, the horror. 

11/27/09

I finished 12 American Revolution Ragged Regular Infantry for Mike Redelfs.

9/20/09

I finish 12 German Infantry figures for the American War of Independence.  I painted them for Mike Redelfs.

9/8/09

I finished 3 25mm Great Northern War Russian Mtd Generals for the Cav Brigades I don't have yet.

8/30/09

I finished 40 25mm Great Northern War Russian Artillerists 

8/29/09

I finished 11 more Lord of the Rings Orcs.

8/23/09

I finished 12 Lord of the Rings orcs.  (yes, I know they are not Historical)  I did it for pay.  I am such a tool.

8/4/09

I finished 12 Canadian Militia for the Battle of Fallen timbers.  I finished the Project.  I will continue to look for a Mounted Mad Anthony Wayne figure.  A yahoo group suggests using a 25mm British Rev War General but I have yet found a company that sells a generic figure.

7/31/09  I finished 4 25mm Eastern Woodland Indians to represent the Leaders for the Battle of Fallen Timbers.  I have enough Indians for four commands of 2 groups of 10 Indians.   I am finishing 12 Canadian Militiamen, which are 12 Redoubt FIW Coureurs de Bois figures. 

7/29/09

 I finished another 40 25mm Eastern Woodland Indians for the Skirmish game of the Battle of Fallen Timbers.

7/23/09

I finished 40 25mm Eastern Woodland Indians for the Battle of Fallen Timbers Skirmish game.

7/17/09

I finished 50 6mm French Light Infantry and 8 Austrian Dragoons.  All for the Wagram Project.

7/5/09

I finished 26 15mm Successor Phalagites for the Successor game.

7/1/09

I finished in 15mm 8 Athenian Hoplites and 4 Greek Peltast for the Successor game.  They will either be part of the three Grecian Minor armies or Mercenary pieces.

2009-06-02 - I've been painting a bit.

I painted up a GW LoTR ranger dude for a friends RPG character for my CnC campaign. 

I finished some 8 HYW Perry Spearmen (for my WFB3ed Brets) a GW musician and Foundry banner bearer. I also finished a GW Brettonnian mounted squire.

 I assembled a reapre dragon being ridden by an elf-chick that I got awhile back as a prize in a painting contest. It will be a pain to paint... I'm going to put together an Elf army for WFB3ed and this will be a 300+ point chunk of that army.
