Well we are into February which is usually a busy hobby time for myself but I am experiencing a bit of a lull this year... I have no idea why! The long winter nights are great for keeping warm around the painting desk or reading a book, maybe it is the mild winter to blame!?
Anyway in an effort to kickstart the years hobby projects I did buy a few boxes of Perry medieval and a stack of different sprues from ebay… as yet I just have a couple of units for Lion Rampant painted and based but I am not getting the urge to do much more with them yet. I am sure that we all have experienced a dip in our devotion to the hobby at some point?
What I did end up with was an unholy desk mess as all the clipping, gluing and parts storage seems to produce a dozen little storage boxes every time I use plastic figures!
The desk will be cleared ready for the arrival of yet more plastics in the form of Perry Sudan British which will serve in the North West Frontier. Another Dan Mersey book is also on the way and I have had some great help over on the Lead Adventure Forum to try and source a picture of a British cart...
Have fun guys and keep posting.
Good to see you still tinkering away. Those foot knights(?) are looking good.
ReplyDeleteHi Micheal, thanks yes still here but not settled on a project. The foot knights are Fireforge for the Crusade period, not bad figures, I have based them for Lion Rampant
DeleteYes, I know the hobby doldrums well, having had a bout this winter too. I'm gradually getting back into the swing of things. Good luck with the projects.
ReplyDeleteThanks AJ, I am sure we will both be enthused by some random period by spring and painting frantically!
DeleteStruggling myself at the moment just don't feel like it when I get the time. Have stripped some old models though so hoping this kick starts some sort of enthusiasm.
ReplyDeleteNot sure about this untidy part as mine desk is currently looking much worse than yours. :)
