@kargandemonclaw Your D&D campaign is getting very interesting :)

[Alan Borthwick @AlanKBorthwick]

@MonsterFight31 The red and green ones with the Bozos tags are mine. Such nice kits.

[Alan Borthwick @AlanKBorthwick]

Wip hardhat from @MonsterFight31 . The leathercame up well.

[Alan Borthwick @AlanKBorthwick]

Finished some block champions and all my civilians for #judgedredd by @WarlordGames

Great models and I will be able to use them in both cyberpunk combat zone and 5 parsecs.

@kargandemonclaw My shots from the other side.

Fight promoter from @MonsterFight31 . Such a great model, I got inspired after adepticon to up my painting level and while there are still some rough bits, I think this paint job is up there for me.

[Alan Borthwick @AlanKBorthwick]

That's 100 sprues. The wargames atlantic #thedamned kickstarter arrived. Only 2 sprues missing. Thankfully some of these are going to my friend @kargandemonclaw.

I think I know the theme of most of the random bad guy models I'm painting for the next wee while :)

[Alan Borthwick @AlanKBorthwick]

Chipping away at some citizens and block heavies from the @warlordgames judge dredd range. Using the speed painting and glazing techniques I learned from @AHappyBrush at adepticon. Not the ideal models for this as its eaiser when they are all the same but the techniques are working ( with some trial and error).

These will be my bad guys for my next 5 parsecs game.

Watching the hurricanes vs blues at the stadium, thanks to the nz funds crew. Here with Sam from my team and my colleague Clarice.

Finished the mini bust I got at adepticon from Lyn Orzech . The face is still rougher than I would like but I'm getting closer to working out the lighting, but I'm really happy with the shirt, belt and hair and the focused light and shadow. And it turns out videoing the turntable is harder than I thought.

Progress on the mini bust. One more session and should be done.

[Alan Borthwick @AlanKBorthwick]

Finishing up the model I started at adepticon in Lyn Orzechs class, I think I got the skin ok and am happy with the jacket, now to finish the hair and shirt.

[Alan Borthwick @AlanKBorthwick]

A group of @manticgames walking dead models that have been staring at me for years, got back from adepticon and decided to go for it.

Used the speed paint method I learned from @AHappyBrush at adepticon and got through them. For the messed up Rick, he took me less than half an hour, and looks as good as the Rick in the leather jacket, who took much longer.

Still need to practice the method and work out how to do it with skin and other colours but so far so good.

First proper painting session since I got back from adepticon. Did a test job on this texture trainer from @TModelmaker and used what I learned from @AHappyBrush , took more time to decide on colours than to paint. And now I am using that scheme on some models that have stumped me for years, but I am already part way through them and should be done in my next session.
