Good to see your mojo retuning Lee.

I like this idea.....
I don’t blog most of what I do because you would all soon get bored of me saying “then I painted this bit...”

Four games workshop ghost like creatures......first time I’ve painted anything in oils for about twenty years LOL....some of the transitions are a bit stark, but the overall effect is there. They were painted last weekend then left for a week to dry, and have now been Matt varnished so I can complete the base detail in acrylic.....that will be next weeks task......

Nest up, nearly finished four wild animals for Frostgrave. All they need is tuft dressing and snow. They are whitemetal from North Star and were painted while the ghosts dried.....

last up, some early days on five Warg scout riders for Oathmark (my next long term project). These are 28mm plastics again from North Star. Not over keen on the warg sculpts. The heads are good, but the rest is a little strange! They were prepped and primed over the last couple of weeks in between other jobs.

Anyway, keep building all, and enjoy your bench time...

Like that one on the bottom right Tim in the first photo .

Found the Jeep station wagon. Looks like it took a tumble or was stepped on as front right wheel is destroyed & the front high-rail wheels and grille/headlight assy are missing.

No chance of a repair then Paul ?

Thanks John. An experiment in oils.....they have all used the same colour palette with differing mid tones and mixing. The one you have picked out is probably the most successful.
I didn’t want to go with the “classic” white ghosts because white is a hard colour to shade well, and they would probably end up looking like a bad black and white film! The moulded in bases are a little fussy for my tastes but the ghosts will make good sword fodder.....

Dzohn, unclear, an 'N' scale pair of railcar wheels might work. I had one around here somewhere.........

Would be nice if you can Paul.

Paul....bear in mind that the flanges on N scale wheel sets can be "turned" down a bit to bring them more into scale. Hope this helps. Rick H.

Here is what is currently on the bench..........looking to see if I can produce some sort of homogenous scene out of three separate entities. A freight car unloading fuel drums, a Fuel supply truck picking up a load of fuel for the heavy tank battalion it is assigned to and a heavy tank and its crew sitting on a siding, waiting to be picked up by a passing freight and moved to the front.

Coming together nicely. Truck is a sure winner. PaulE
