Steel Penguins braying

[NARSES2]

got some more paint on the infantry the green and brown for the camo, and black on a couple, still more progress 
im at the point of thinking what i want to do next model wise, it may be another trumpeter challenger 2 , probably the dozer blade one

Definitely making progress 

[Steel Penguin]

and for my next thing,
a microwave comms relay tower https://fenrisgames.com/shop#!/FGSFS06-Phone-communications-tower/p/36128254/category=8583849
that i got mumble years ago,  and finally have the desire to do,  though with no instructions and the picture from the website, itll be a bit of an educated guess to assemble 
the other real kit is the trumpeter chally 2 with dozer blade, that was got out of the box yesterday, and the other ( other) chally kit left in there.  the sprues are in a box and i can start on the road wheels ( shudder) as i want.

the comms towers done.... but i managed to spanner enough of it up, ive just built it as similar to a current mobile mast,     im making a couple of street boxes, from 1:35 tank boxes 
the paints on the 8 infantry, i need to get some brown on the bases and hen glue on flock, so good progress there.
ive started trying to clean up a second hand GW predator i have,  the muzzle for the auto cannon has been remade and added, some gaps on the body have been filled, and ive now got to scratch a pair of laz cannon to go on the sponsons ,  ive some box and brass bar for the body and will cut and shape some sprue for the rest, 

im trying to get the mojo with the chally, but the thought of road wheels at the mo is making me go "meh"

[Steel Penguin]

infantry are done   

11 figures 3 models and 4 bits of scenery

the mobile tower will get some white paint tomorrow ( if the weathers reasonable)  so progress.

[NARSES2]

so progress.

Of any kind is good 

[Steel Penguin]

tower has had a coat of white primer then a covering of Ford Ice Diamond White ( its a very very pale blue,  or as my friend who worked at a paint factory put it, white with a flick of black in)  the cabinets are glued on and are getting green paint on them, and the base is getting scrubs and dry brushes of greys..
Ive another 11 80s british infantry on the desk,  a command figure and radioman, a blowpipe operator, a figure with binoculars, a GPMG on a pole for air defence, , 2 troopers with LAW 72s,, a grenadier with a M72, and 3 riflemen.  and the pack of bikini Girls with machine guns, i got in january as been cleaned up as started, because i wanted something a little more colourful than DPM 
still haven't started on the chally 2        but have got the Predator to a point im happy with repainting it 
but been the good busy.

[NARSES2]

You are being busy mate 

[Steel Penguin]

slowly adding colour to DPM  and a bit of brightness to beach babes     the comms tower is done and is now waiting for varnish,  and so the world moves slowly onwards,  im enjoying  not having a deadline for completion hanging over me for this batch of figures,  wile it does provide a large dose of motivation, the lack makes this more of an enjoyable wandering meander   

[NARSES2]

s and a bit of brightness to beach babes   

And enjoying every minute 

I know what you mean about a lack of deadlines, even self imposed one.

[Steel Penguin]

beach babes are done, as are the infantry,  the cell phone mast is done  so
another 16 figures, and another peace of scenery

27 figures 3 models and 5 bits of scenery

the predator has been undercoated, as have 9 more infantry and 4 dismounted vehicle crew,  from the part done box ive got the crooked dice original ghost buster alikes  it feels like im starting to get back into my stride /  a bit of a rhythm,       

[NARSES2]

beach babes are done,

Photos ? Or do they require vetting first 

[Steel Penguin]

i can throw a link to the manufactures page  https://www.wargamesfoundry.com/collections/street-violence/products/sv066-gun-girls   better painted than mine, and to give an idea of size the bases there mounted on are 28mm,  i have most of the packs as they were perfect for a "slum scum" force i threw together for a warhammer 40000 army, they were easy to paint up and managed to look different, and the SWAT teams were useful for modern stuff as well,

and as its 25th April again it is once again  World Penguin Day     Wark!!

[NARSES2]

and as its 25th April again it is once again  World Penguin Day     Wark!!

I wondered why there were penguins at the bottom of my pc screen 

Those Beach Babes look good, certainly different from my Han Chinese army back in the day
