Best laid plans 

[Steel Penguin]

the real output was higher, that count only started in june.  and I couldn't face copying up the bit of paper bluetacked to the wall to start from.
but do it this way... that way I wont feel too bad as my productivity is sucked away by TV and Guild wars2

[NARSES2]

Yup must admit my blog on here and the "my stash just grew again" thread are the evidence the lawyers will use for/against me at any time 

[Steel Penguin]

finished the stable block. again a nice build, the fact its all pre painted and laser cut makes it a pleasure to build.

2 bits of scenery

[Steel Penguin]

2 figures 2 bits of scenery

[Steel Penguin]

finished a 54 mm Anastasia the bride  from war griffon,
3 figures 2 bits of scenery

and cleaned up 3 forces for in her majesty's name
brick lane Commune
black dragon Tong
and society of Thule
glued to bases and in need of undercoating when I get a bit of light and dryness.

[Steel Penguin]

brick lane commune just need the bases flocking and varnishing so are finished,  and im starting on the Tongs next.  Its a nice feeling to get stuff done and sorted. ive also done a set of inlet valves for a tank farm ( a fish tank air line splitter on a scrap bit of boards from the stables, and some Tamiya wall sections)

It being the first week of Feb ive got a weeks hols, today was dentist apt and stuff, tomorrow is getting the shed roof fixed and housework, and then the rest of the times my own,  theres a trip to cosi coming up, and possibly into Brum, but there will be painting and modelling going on, ive started my black dragon tong, and may well have a go at a kit or 2 as well.

[Steel Penguin]

back at work now, but managed a trip to Cosi on weds last week, it was windy enough to be blowing the surface water up the road by the cold war hanger.....  finished my Black dragon Tong, and the steampunk Fagin, did some reading played on the puter a bit, had a good relax.
and felt like I hadn't been away after 30 mins at work this morning
26 figs 3 bits of scenery
started on the society of Thule figs now to have a stab at getting all the IHMN figs done, before the steam walker and Prince of wales company come out.

[Steel Penguin]

that's the Thule  figs done  4 jaegers 3 hero's, and 4 Todtruppen.
37 figs 3 bits of scenery

[Steel Penguin]

a relatively quick set this time, ( and easy fortunately, as ive a stinking cold.)
all from Crooked Dice, 3 running Fed troopers, 1 commander fig with communicator, 2 mutoids, and a security robot.
7 more figs
43 figs and 3 pieces of scenery.
cleaned up a 28mm Tetrach and a panard AC ready to undercoat.

ive just spent the morning "tidying" the stack of kit boxes, blister packs and resealable bags next to my painting desk, wile moving some old wargames magazines from the "easy readable" pile to a plastic stacker crate, ive found some 1:48 jeeps id bought a few years ago, and been able to shelve some games workshop rhinos that had been finished and left lying round.  Its a bit tidier and I think I have a little more elbow room, but I think I may need to rack up my production rate as I also found my 2011 and 2012 painting totals  ( 152 items including a 1:48 A10 and 16 resin vehicles,  and 228 items including 17 vehicles and a 1:48 Tonka respectively)
and im enjoying the sun streaming through the window at the moment as well.
next up is to try and clear the accumulated stuff on my desk and think a bought what I may do for cosford this year. Or weather ill bring along a carry case full of 28mm stuff ( some of the stuff from above and some general oddness from my painted collections)
