I've just stumbled across this thread and your blog, having been a bit of a stranger to the Future Wars forum in the past - what outstanding work! I've still got a fair chunk of the thread to read, but what I've seen so far is really inspiring, and it's given me some great ideas for the abhumans I want to include in some of my small skirmish warbands that I'll be working on soon, so thank you!  :o :D :-* :-* :-*

Dedication? I reckon it's become a bit of an obsession. I struggle on a daily basis with ideas for new things and I have to ignore them or get side tracked again.

I have an army list now... and I am sticking to it! No more extras!

However... I still have a host of things that need to be built/finished, before the list is complete.

So far it's been on the go for about four years. I reckon that by the time it is finished it'll be at least six... assuming I maintain my enthusiasm for it and don't get sidetracked by one of the many other projects I have.

Ticking along :)

I've nearly finished the first squad of Ratling snipers. They are attached to the first platoon... so it looks like I will be painting Squats soon :) .

So... now I am painting things, I thought I'd give some Halflings a go:



These are attached to the first Infantry platoon so I have dug out the command elements to paint... namely a Primaris Psyker (Jedi Beastman), Platoon Commander and Command Squad.

I have just primed the troops and have started to paint the Psyker (because he was already started).

This painting push will be to try and complete the whole platoon; which consists of:

Primaris Psyker.
Platoon Commander.
Command Squad.
Infantry Squad.
Infantry Squad.
Heavy Weapon Squad.
Armoured Sentinel Sqn (3 walkers).
Chimeras (4 vehicles).

The good thing is that the troops have a lot of colours on them so they will be entertaining to paint :) . Hopefully, I'll be able to get the platoon done (I may stall on the Chimeras because they haven't been converted yet... the rest is all ready for paint).

This week, after finishing the Snipers, I got on with painting the Primaris Psyker for the first platoon:



I've also started painting the Platoon Commander and his Command Squad. They are still WIP but there is a pic over at the blog:

I've got a little further now... they have been washed and are ready for the highlighting now :) .

The first infantry unit is complete... this is the command section for the first platoon:



Primaris Psyker, Platoon Commander and Command Squad.

The first infantry Squad is now on the painting table :) .

They look great!
Do you use your phone, or a camera for the pics? Asking, because I had many of my minis photos come out yellowish, until I figured out which settings to use with natural and artificial light.
Ask at the LAF, and answer shall thy be given!

These are just so great!

I haven't been a fan of the reddish base stuff... but it's growing on me...
