Between weather, schedules and an annoying habit of finding myself in the hospital, gaming opportunities have been a bit sparse. Fortunately it doesn't preclude painting. So with a shameless lack of modesty, here are pics of stuff from my workbench.
Hopefully things will improve on the various fronts and I can do more game-related posts. Painting is fun and relaxing but best is too:
 |
| Ottoman Sipahis from a commision job. |
 |
| The Assault Group figures I believe. For an Imagi-Nation army. |
 |
| Next some Tatar light cavalry. |
 |
| Same company for the same Imagi-Nation. |
 |
| They were fun to paint. |
 |
| Repurposing to an extreme. Here my harbor is guarded by a... |
 |
| Pencil sharpener. A post on The Miniatures Page put me onto it. 6USD from Walmart. |
 |
| I love 1/600 ACW ships but am often frustrated by the comparative lack of Confederate "cottonclads." |
 |
| So I started building some. Some parts from my gubbins box and we're ready to go. |
 |
| It was hard to have a clear idea of specifics, lots of contradiction. |
 |
| This is a Thoroughbred metal miniature. |
 |
| My goal is to have the ships for the Battle of Memphis. |
 |
| A pair of Vospers in 1/300. |
 |
| The light makes the decks more yellowish. It is a tan color. |
 |
| Some pictures I found had a dark deck but I assumed air superiority and left them a natural wood color. |
 |
| A 1/2400 Micronaught model of the USS Farragut. |
 |
| A trio of early war (for us), DDs. |
 |
| Three Fletcher class DDs, also in 1/2400. |
 |
| Quite possibly my favorite destroyer design in history. |

Wonderful job, especially the Tatar light cavalry and the different ships imho, superb!
