Painting Block Defeated?

[elysium64]

Yesterday I started and finished my first model in over 8 months, the lovely "Son of Flashman" from Empress, really pleased with how he turned out.
Sorry no photo's yet but I just had to announce these momentous event.
I will take photo's at weekend as need to get new power cable for camera, hopefully may have painted a couple more by then.
I have no need to buy any more figures as I have several projects to work on, these include the aforementioned Empress NW Frontier, 10-12 figs for a small skirmish game based on VURT (by Jeff Noon), A couple of Warzone Resurrection armies (already started on the Imperials), and a Conan project, plus lots more in the lead pile. Happy to have a few different projects so I can do bits of others to break up any monotony.
Hopefullly I will become an Active member again soon, look out for new project threads soon.......

Well done Simon. Look forward to seeing him.

Well done, mate.
Looking forward to the piccies.
 

Sometimes that is all it takes, just the right figure to kick you off.

Oh, and you can add a cowboy posse to that list of yours too.

Would some Mountain Men do as I already have these? then you can build a fur traders as my namesake on the board

Good to hear. Time to ease back in bit by bit.

I used to suffer bouts of 'painters block' and have found that blogging and now having self-imposed reasonable yearly targets (therefore continuous) for painting has actually helped. Also, I find painting something simple when I haven't painted in a while helps act as a 'kick-start' of sorts.

Glad to see you back in the saddle

Mountain men are fine.

As for the 'Fur Trader': That has been gazumped and is already on the list as 'Someone Else'.

You are one of only two 'inhabitants' that I had serious trouble with, but I am almost settled on your alter ego.
Tell the truth, it has just dawned on me as I write this.
 

30 different characters based on usernames has not been easy, I can tell ya.

I wish I could beat mine. The upturn in the economy has the downside that I just don't have the enthusiasm for painting in the evening as I am knackered. Must try harder as I am sure it will help with that as well.
