I know everyone likes to show off their fabulous finished models when they have an influx of new followers (hello!), so let's do this differently. Here's four of my favourite #WIP projects for you to enjoy!

Had to explain to my son that Movember isn't actually about giving money to grown men for growing shit moustaches. Harder conversation than the Santa one, frankly.

Watching Mars Express. 15 minutes in, and it's a delight.
This signpost must be a delightful nod to gaming greats of Éric Chahi, Chris Hülsbeck and Yu Suzuki.

Rökthane Toothcutter Schiltron from @ontosgames.co.uk. Specifically, the Highlander special I picked up at Salute and have procrastinated on painting since buying it. I knew it should be tartan, but that's difficult, as you can see from the close-up! But I think it's effective.

How It Started Vs How It's Going
A story of two Nevilles.
I wanted to paint a second Neville as a disheveled version of the first to show the journey of a poor, battered infantry. Even down to love and hate tattoos on his knuckles, and a battered backpack.
This was a lot of fun.

Just over here being an idiot and doing tartan patterns on 28mm models.
My face hurts from concentrating, I have no idea how people do detailed freehand regularly.
I chose to blame @ontosgames.co.uk for this happening.

Neville from Turnip 28. Great sculpt, and a fun paint.
Tried for a more harmonious palette and wanted to keep him clean and factory fresh, as I have a second one that will be done in a grittier fashion later.

Just watched Gunpowder Milkshake.
It's both deliberately very silly and very enjoyable.

Sir Gorgonz, from Ennenne Studio's Dungeons & Mice range. Picked it up at SMC after seeing it. A fun project, and they've sculpted such a cute little hero 😍

I should be painting orks, but this lovely mouse knight I picked up at SMC demands my attention this week.

Vashkor Drool. Yes, it's another ork but this sculpt had a name!
I started this model last year but he's finally finished after languishing on the WIP shelf for so long.

It's Scale Model Challenge in Eindhoven next weekend. I'll be there on Saturday & Sunday with a couple of models in the Standard Fantasy class.
If you're reasonably local, it's worth your time. Very well run show and HUGE too. I've been a few times and always enjoy it.

Ork, ork, ork.
Still thinking on basing schemes. It won't be a decision I make this month though!

Hey you. Switch off loudspeaker on your phone, raise it gently to your ear and GIVE IT A FUCKING REST WITH THE LOUD CONVERSATION IN PUBLIC, YOU PRICK.
Mobile phones are a blessing and a curse. I have no idea why dickheads talk into them like communicators from Star Trek but it needs to stop. Urgh.

Tallgeese from the Gundam Assemble 28mm range. Fun.
Think that's enough little robots for the time being, so something else required now.
