And so it begins...

Hi, here's my last post before Christmas! During this times of the year my hobby time will be again heavily reduced by family occasions and the upcoming exams in January! However I managed to start paint 10 new miniatures for my 1880 project (VSF) in Central Africa, the miniatures are all native porters or civilians. Of the porters, 4 were partially repainted to fit with the new porters. I'm really pleased with the results of their fleshtone, the miniatures will hopefully be fully painted by the end of the holidays.

As part of the project I also made progress with my British fort! It's looking really good with a coat of paint and I'm eager to finish the piece and use it in a skirmish! Photos will follow within the coming weeks!

And before I forget, everybody a Merry Christmas!

I've also started to paint an Isengard army which is a small part of my Lord of The Rings collection. The army will consist out of:

- Lurtz (hero)
- 5 Uruk-Hai with shield and sword
- 5 Uruk-Hai with pike
- 4 Uruk- Hai engineers + bomb
- 1 Uruk-hai berserker
- Saruman (wizard)
- and maybe 6 Warg riders

I've also managed to undercoat a dozen of Napoleonic British soldiers as part of my England invaded project. As part of this project I also undercoated the automatons of the Corps d'aérostiers which are extremly good looking with only a single layer of Chaos Black.

Now back to reality and harsh life of a college student!

Greets,
