Been a busy time at the moment - work is out of control, but still finding some time for hobby. First up, traded out the Deathwing I picked up in the Space Marine lot for a variety of Empire...which actually added more black than red to my list. Though if anyone's interested in a Talisman Fire Mage (
This Guy), let me know and we can talk trades. Pretty much new off sprue, mould lines and all. Nice model, but I've already painted him this year haha. To the list!

So, err, not good. I also have an Emperor's Children lot coming my way that's going to add another 30-ish points when it arrives. On the red side a few updates:
-Harry The Hammer - base is put together and waiting to be gap-filled. Then need to assemble Harry and undercoat the next time I get decent weather
-Pleasant Surprise - model is purchase and waiting to be built. May aim to get that done next week.
-Rhinos - put to one side for the moment
-Pistoliers - while waiting for Harry to dry, I pulled out some Pistoliers I started working on ages ago. I have two units I was working on at the same time (one of the 6th ed. metals and one of the 7th ed. plastics) and I decided to focus on the metals and get them done. I'd already done the main parts (weapons, armour, uniforms and some of the horses) so been smashing out the rest at a great pace for the last few days. Now down to details (sword hilts, details on the horses and feathers) then will base and put a pic up...hoping that will happen in the next day or two as I'm away next weekend (no painting time
)
So, totally self-inflicted hit on the list this week...thinking ahead I'm debating doing some 30K Emperor's Children to start cutting into the masses of unpainted resin I have lying around. Probably won't happen until August at least at this rate haha. Stay tuned, hoping to have some more positive updates soon!
