To the everlasting glory of the infantry.

Roger Young, etc, etc. I painted things!


Green/C is finished.



Here's the work in progress Commissar for Green/Command.



Some more Highlanders in progress. Four riflemen and a flamer.



I amalgamated all the War Orphans into one basic platoon.


And the lascannon that's going into the Command Squad.

Horses, Orphans, and Loonies Who Jump From Planes

Updates! They're not quite the updates I wanted them to be, as I appear to have lost my GS. As in, it's somewhere on my desk and I don't know where. Unfortunately, things being underneath other things is my personal kryptonite.

Anyways, here's the new cavalry, bringing the total up to five. Due to aforementioned lack of greenstuff, I haven't done their reins, carbine cases or bedrolls, but they're worth posting pics of anyways.




And a group shot:





And because I keep yapping about them, here's the newest War Orphans.





And finally, an in-progress Yukoni Drop Trooper. This guy was made on a whim, because I had parts for only a single dude left. I have no idea how I'll use them, if I make a full squad, but I used the incredibly cliched pose (I've seen it a lot, especially with Blood Pact, strangely) because I want to try my hand at sculpting a, uh, a hand. He carries an autogun instead of the usual Rosch lasrifle because I figure that you can't really properly flash-suppress a laser gun and a bunch on lunatics who insist on jumping out of perfectly good airplanes would need a gun that isn't guaranteed to give them away.





The lack of GS pretty much stymies everything I was going to do tonight, so maybe I'll build some terrain. I need a couple more buildings, and I think I've figured out how to make craters.

More PBJ. Er, PBI.

Here's the completed Red/C.


A full army shot, at least the army thus far:


Three completed infantry squads, one unpainted platoon command squad, two built (and one half-built) Rough Riders, two Highlanders (one built), and fifteen War Orphans.


What are the War Orphans? These guys:


They're the various metal Guardsmen I've collected over the years. I have zero idea where any of them came from, so I probably got them in various bulk bitz I've bought from people. Two Steel Legionnaires, four Mordians, four Tanith, one Catachan Sergeant (possibly one of my favourite models ever, the dude with the shades, bolter and cigar. I'm going to give him a Tilly Hat to make him 110% awesome.), two old metal Cadians and two old metal Storm Troopers. I'm thinking of using them as members of a Battalion of Detachments, nicknamed the "War Orphans", to quickly bulk up the numbers until I can buy more Cadians.



And, finally, I realized I hadn't done a workspace picture. Here it be:


Yes, I'm a slob.
