Thanks chaps.

A couple of hours sleep seem to have staved that bout off.  Keep taking fluids and headache tablets (cocodamol my weapon of choice ).


By the way....I posted a question about Special Artizan Design Service in the UK?

Thanks guys.  Rough night, let’s hope that was as bad as it gets...

Going to try painting minis today.  Keep my mind off it.

Cheers Paul.

Well if anyone is interested...I’m on day 6.  I actually made it thru the night without any fevers and I feel “better”.  I still feel like I’ve lost a bout with a heavyweight champ and that’s probably normal following any viral infection.

In summary, days one - cough started, day two, tight chest, headaches and fevers started. Day three and four - felt like sh*t lots of fevers and headaches. Day 5 thought I’d broken fevers with cold sweats in the night but still suffered though the day.  Day 6 calm night...feeling much improved.

I’ve been lucky, I was petrified being in the high risk category, but my cough didn’t get too bad and it’s kept off my chest.

Hope this helps anyone going through it...it is beatable and five days seems about the sum of it.  Stick up on that paracetamol and drink LOTS.



Anyway, back to the project I think.  I’m waiting on a paint delivery before I can start to paint the Blotz buildings.  I’ve printed out about twenty T Walls and a dozen runs of three HESCO barriers.  Should be enough.

So, it’s tome to get painting minis.....working on first dozen insurgents.  Hopefully a progress mini later.

I have just discovered this amazing thread and was saving every picture for reference/inspiration so thank you for sharing your genius! By page 5 I was sold on the idea of buying a 3d printer-or are there companies out there willing to sell 3d prints so one can make moulds?

Sorry to hear about yourself and others getting sick, take care all but do keep working on this during your isolation!

Well done Dave, sounds like you have beaten it mate.
Take your time getting back into the hobby, and remember it is just a hobby.

Sorry I’ve been quiet.   I thought I’d seen the back of this virus but the last ten days have been very scary.  I won’t hit you with all details but I was prettified of ending up on a ventilator somewhere.     My wife has been a diamond.  I have basically kept as hydrated as possible to keep away from the hospitals.  Ate my first solid food last night and looking forward to a good old fashioned stew and dumplings tonight.......finally.

Thanks to those who sent messages, sorry if I never got back but you are brilliant.

Anyway, onwards and upwards .....
