The 500: Day 25

Dec 26, 2014 10:06

Yours truly faking painting. 

Note the beverage of the gods.

Helmet Troopers It proved harder than I had initially thought, but I did manage to slip away for half an hour to finish the two platoons on the workbench. I'll say this comes to a full hour combined with the previous day and keep the hour log where it is.

Truth be told, the actual effect of these two short work periods is not that great for the final production. It is more of a morale thing, having worked every single day. And it also means I don't have to post "didn't work today" updates.

I decided to finish the desert basing by sticking numerous static grass bushes on the bases. Partly because it was quick to do, partly because it involved no drying time and partly because I was already decked out in my Sunday finest and didn't want to risk any paint or glue stains...

The guys in the red helmets are weirdly familiar, but I just can't place them. Can anyone help and tell what they were possibly inspired by?

Power Armor Troopers This means we broke another hundred and are actually down to the last 50 figures. There is one platoon of 15mm troopers left in the queue (there are some others left in the bin, but I'm not doing them now). Then the final few will have to be 28mm again.

I have an ample supply of Chronopia dwarves ready to go. Let's see how far we can take them...

Figures remaining: 50

Hours Worked: 107

Total pledges: 30 GBP Red Cross Ebola Campaign
