Glad the 'A Tale of Four Gamers' has inspired you, which was exactly the point of it :). It has certainly helped me and maintained focus on the project in hand.

Yeah, also breaking down the lead mountain - or hummock in my case! - into manageable chunks is definitely helpful.  I've got very limited time to paint, so mission focus is the order of the day: I keep thinking of things and finding figures that could be added, but keeping it to the original batch gives a palpable feeling of making progress.

Only one more picture this evening: one undercoated; one almost finished; and one, well, hmm, just don't ask!!!  :-/



Cheers!

Go for it, look forward to seeing them ;)

Busy evening yesterday, as mentioned elsewhere I managed to paint 10 pixie hats!

Here's the little chaps enjoying a photo-call in the garden:



...and getting up close and personal:





You may notice I was being modest, I also managed the swords :D

Bit more work on the swords, then only the breechclouts and bases to go really.

Really looking good now!  :D

Cheers Lemmey.

I'm really pleased with how the "chestnut mushroom" and Pendraken figures have turned out  :)

Just got to get on with the pasta fungi now, its finding time during daylight that's tricky.  Dry brushing and the like I can do in the evening, my eyes just seem to prefer natural light for anything which requires depth perception!  :-\

Yes, they're Aztec Smurfs: death by chocolate!!! ;)

Aztecs do it to people, not for them. With nasty clumsy knives of volcanic glass. And they stew you in chocolate sauce afterwards.

They're just cutting out a step and using nasty clumsy knives of chocolate...  =)  :d
