Them: It is pretty mild, but it is surgery, so don’t do any lifting for two days.

Me: Why is my recovery taking so long…

A bit humid with a pair of storms hanging out, but I have some White Scars and some T-28s in need of a spray.

Also put together a Thunderhawk for Legions Imperialis (more White Scars). Also, I hope aircraft work in Legions Imperialis, because my White Scars are going have 9 for 1500pts.

Day 3, this is going to be my last set from paperterrain.com for a little while, but I have a bunch almost finished.

Still 6mm.

Day 2 ha I forgot the picture.
September 3, 2025 at 4:58 AM
Day 1: I am crafting again, yay! Six houses with ruins (from paperterrain.com ‘s Central Europe collection 6mm). Still need some minor touch ups, but I am excited for the new Army Painter pens, so that will wait. Legions Imperialis for scale in background. Also worked on some Sci-Fi 28mm.

Me: I got work to do…

Queenie: No, bad human.

Week 3, Day 20. Some quick figure fixes.
July 25, 2025 at 4:05 AM
Week 3, Day 19. A large Central European House, from paperterrain.com.

15mm, for when my Soviets push towards Berlin.

6mm so I can build a diorama of the Village of Hommlet that will fit on the table.

25mm so I can switch out and put a Battlemat of Hommlet on the table. And 5 Leagues.

Week 3, Day 18. More figure repair and magnetization.
July 23, 2025 at 2:46 AM
Week 3, Day 17. Have light on both sides of the box. Did some final touches to my 15mm(18?) North Russian homes by Sarissa Precision. Bigger than Paperterrain and more work, but they look great. Also some magnetizing and repairs on some D&D figures 28mm)
July 22, 2025 at 4:36 AM
Week 3, Day 16. Light box is up, need one more usb outlet to for great lighting. Finished up, sealed and hid some of the white space on this Modern to Sci-fi furniture. Goblin is just in there for scale.
July 21, 2025 at 4:30 AM
Day 15 of Modeling, nothing impressive, just sealing and packing away some of the work I have done this week.
July 20, 2025 at 4:52 AM
Day 14 of crafting, more worldworks furniture in that chunky 28mm style. Mostly easy box folds.
July 19, 2025 at 4:05 AM
Crafting day 13: Some chunky 28mm furniture from World Works… light night as I was playing Pathfinder and just doing folds and glue stick. But I am happy with the results.

Was not distracted with the game - but it was just box folds so nothing complicated.

Day 12 of crafting. I did a little washing and flocked two figures - but gave up as that was way too much work for the payoff. Got a company of Soviet Rifles on magnets so I can swap to individual bases if I want. All they need is sealing. Humidity willing I will knock that out this weekend.
July 17, 2025 at 3:53 AM
Day 11, dropped some grasses on those bases from yesterday. I have no idea what I am doing.
July 16, 2025 at 4:07 AM
Day 10, primed some bases (Russian Green - the modern color from Vallejo and a bit of Feldgrau) and did some finishing on buildings - bases and some flocking. Maybe, this weekend I will do some eastern front 5-Core.
July 15, 2025 at 3:50 AM
And finally, a to go crafting box…
July 14, 2025 at 3:48 AM
Also, after I find an extension cord with usb outlets that I don’t mind running over my walk way, I will have a light box.
July 14, 2025 at 3:47 AM
Week 2 (Day 9) of crafting. It is amazing how much covering the white makes a difference. I do not think this is a great basing technique, so I will use these bases for other units. I am going to just use Wargame Accessories Metal bases for this unit. (The snipers are based this way.)
July 14, 2025 at 3:41 AM
Today (day 8) I put some magnets on a Soviet Rifle company so I can switch them out between games.
July 13, 2025 at 5:07 AM
Day 7, a pair of true 15 sci fi buildings. I feel like I have been slacking off today and yesterday, but if I did this for three months I could probably fill my table in 15mm.
July 12, 2025 at 3:13 AM
Day 6: Some cargo containers and low walls.
July 11, 2025 at 4:05 AM
Tonight’s take (modeling/crafting day 5) 6 buildings in the 22mm mistake scale. A large 15 soldier and a small 15 tank and the buildings look good, but will look big with true 15 buildings.
July 10, 2025 at 4:01 AM
Day 4: two kiosks for 22mm Science Fiction Wargaming. I think I know where I will be building the light box this weekend. Won’t improve my modeling but will make the pictures cooler.
