Well, I have no had a lot of time to paint, update or anything else for that matter.
Makes me sad.
Tears have been shed.
Well, on with the show!
So I finally have my “failed Rotten Harvest: Trick or Treat” entry mostly completed. There’s some basing detail still to finish, but here she is!!
Er, El….I know you put a lot of time into this and all but doesn’t this look kind of…broken?
Now I ended up with an unintended side effect of, as all of the elements were created and painted SEPERATELTY, I ended up with this odd miss-matched looking base and mini.
Aaah well, I guess you live and you learn yea?
Now, I still have some grass tufts to add to the base and some more shading to do but for the moment – she’s put to the side because I’m afraid if I keep working on her I’m going to try to choke her in her sleep *ehem*.
Grass tufts soon to appear here and here.
Oh and finally! I know it doesn’t really make sense as they’re different tones and all but – her colour scheme was supposed to look like Candy Corns!!
I made her some small ones out of Sculpey III (which were baked) and glued to the base.
If I try anything like this again, they’re going to have to be way smaller.
Well, other than her I have also been working on my Argus for my Circle group in Warmachine.
Can you ask the other head to close his mouth? I can smell his breath way over here.
I was debating on the colour for the “fur” of the Argus but I think it ended up being Grey as after he was primed in a grey colour, it actually appeared to match the armour colour scheme I had chosen so decided to go with that.
In addition to these, I have been spending a little time learning about Makeup.
I have never been someone to wear makeup really (I am pertinently rolling about in Black Eyeliner from the supermarket but that is literally ALL).
I’m finding this interesting as the shading with blush and bronzer etc etc all appear to match the same rules as I use when painting a face on a miniature. I’m definitely going to see if I can pull off ‘eye glowing’ or ‘zombie tone’ effect or something on my skin.
Yup, those would be the smallest damned lipsticks in the WORLD. I put a 5c piece next to them for good measure.
While on a recent trip to Melbourne, I also managed to pick up a few goodies!
That would be an expansion for Puppet Wars, Some miscellaneous Reaper Bones minis, Reaper metal Jackalopes to act as Malifaux Proxies if needed, some paints and a copy of WoW – as believe it or not, is a game I only recently started playing and I don’t have a “paid for account” as of yet.
Well, I might leave it there for today!! Don’t want to use up all my photos all at once hahaha.

Ellie
