Plating up the Infamy Miniatures Full English Pledge - Part 3: Elevensies
Welcome to a slightly delayed Part 3 of my Infamy Miniatures Full English KS Unboxing. After the unnamed Part 1 and Part 2: Second Breakfast comes Elevensies. In this Unboxing, I'll be looking at The Quaker, The Paranormal, Mr Dodgson, the now retired Frank Hyde, Oscar and finally the fierce looking Jo March.
War Hog WIP Part 2
Let's check back in and see how my little pig is coming on with 3 weeks left until Smogcon 2016!
St Peter from Purgatory - Single Figure Winner
Back in September, I won the single figure category of Purgatory's first painting contest for Death. The reward for winning that contest was a copy of St Peter (unboxing here), which gave me a chance to enter the next contest, which finished last weekend.
It turns out that something between me and Purgatory miniatures seems to have clicked, as St Peter followed Death and also picked up the win in the single figure category!
War Hog WIP Part 1
Hi guys, for my first post let’s take a look at how my planned entry for Smogcon 2016
is getting along!
I spent a considerable amount of time working on the
composition and preparing the miniature, these Restic models from
PrivateerPress are a bit of a pain like that, in that it’s not easy to
sand/scrape the material without it flaking away, causing a poor finish.
Bolton Ipms Show.
On Sunday I was at the Bolton Model show and it was great and a lot of great models and people........

Unboxing: Sorceress of the Circle from Shieldwolf Miniatures
Welcome to the third unboxing in our Shieldwolf Miniatures week!
After seeing Shamikebab play with his Orc Standard Bearer and Merkeysa get to grips with his Mounted General/Warrior Priest, it's my turn. I was offered the choice between a Wizard, a Mounted General and an Orc and, as I'm not an Orc person, that was the order of my preference.
With that in mind, I was rather happy when the Sorceress appeared in the post.
Human General / Warrior Priest on Horse.
I will be showing you all the Human General / Warrior Priest By Shieldwolf Miniatures.

Brambleten's Crazy 2016 Painting Plan
Last year was a pretty decent year for me, painting wise. I found a degree of consistency and managed to paint 18 models over 12 months. Over the last 3 or 4 months, I also think I've improved a few areas of my painting - definitely my skin tones. This is after 49 miniatures painted in 2014, and 24 months of at least one miniature painted a month.
It's now time to potentially ruin that consistency with a brand new project generation system for 2016 involving a spreadsheet and a random number generator.
