Weekends Pulp WIP very pic heavy

[Peter@BattleScape]

Well for the first time in quite a while we were all at home.  No one in hospital, off visiting sick or injured relatives or visiting non sick relatives.  I was tired of spending all my painting time on customer orders, so I decided to make and paint only for me...yes I know, selfish B*#$%%$d aren't I.  Anyway the girls and I set too and this is what we managed:

First up in a pic of what is called my "Night Desk". I don't sleep very much, so the logical thing was to set up an area to work without waking the others....and this is it.  I happen to have 2 other painting desks in the house.


Next we have what is called the "Ready Use Pile". This is just the collection of kits on hand to be built next.  No Snappy this is NOT the entire collection....



This is "Big Rex", this guy is the gaming version I bought 5 of them very cheap and gave 1 each to the girls and the wife.  That left me with 1 for gaming and another that will be built properly into a...hopefully, great "little" diorama.


Next we have some VSF/Very Aerly Pulp troops with some planes, mini sub and crocs.


Closer look at the not finished troops of the "Tasmanian Regt" not quite historically correct as these fellows are wearing helmets.


The figures in black undercoat are a pickup from a 2nd hand store on Saturday...bunch of Foundry Pirates, some more planes, Pulp Figures "Damsels in Distress and some Bears.


Here is a close up of the Bears.


Ah now we come to the "African" section...some Natives, Pygmies, Egyptian Diggers and some Hunters/Heroes on Safari.


A few more Hunters, some Rocky Outcroppings that I have painted and a Bridge that I have made for a friend. Oh and some more planes.


Couple of close ups of that lot including the "Egyptian Olympic Torch Bearer"






That was all we managed this weekend...and as always only finished a couple of bits...the rocks and the bridge...the rest will be done in the wee hours of the coming weeks.

No Snappy this is NOT the entire collection....

I always imagine you as having a second house (unknown to the family) which is just full of model planes, your secret lair! "Just off to the office, dear." I love the colours you are using in your African section, they are going to look really good. Can we see more of the Tasmanian Regiment? They are looking very good.


Prof. are you sure you don't live in a model shop? We have model shops down our way that have less stock, fantastic!


I am now going to spend an hour checking through Pete and the Profs photos to see what I need to buy next (if there was a Choc Top in the country I'd have it delivered now!

They were bought over a time far long ago when the Ebay bug was rife and bargains a plenty. Even worse then it is now   I'm slowly converting them (via EBay) to packs of Bob Murch's finest   Hence the empty shelf. Though I also state in my defence that the top shelf is double stacked (There are boxes behind those boxes at the front) on the right.

That's a collection and a half fair play.

Pete, I'm looking forward to more pictures over the coming weeks, not bad for a weekend!!

Prof. I'm glad to hear that you are turning it all into Pulp!  Did you have a project in mind at the time with all those vehicles and tanks?

Just endless glass cabinets with dioramas filling every shelf.  My early years were steeped in model making. Was a member of I.P.M.S. for many years.

Psssst.  (Whispers).. For some unknown reason, he's easily entertained by a woman with a sword.  

[Mad Lord Snapcase]

I would definitely be entertained by her!

Snappy not a second house mate...just a 30m x 15m x 5.8m shed....will try and take some pics for you.  One wall is all resin stuff, another is for the kits and I have my figs in blisters hanging on hooks.....then there is the stuff still stored in boxes.  I did find 45  2.8m x 1.6m sheets of insulation foam on a shelf yesterday....can't remember how, when or why I got them.  Will have to make them into something someday.
