Not only did I get home to be greeted by three packages but I got to open them early having been shall we say let go. So on the bright side I now have a bit extra time to paint some figures, maybe even catch Dave up? OK pure fantasy that last part so lets move along.
First up keeping with the alphabetical theme of yesterday.....
Four packs of Essex Miniatures for the Roman Army, these have arrived to possibly included in the batch I am prepping at the moment.
Anyone recognise this building? hint, it's far Project Waterloo and will be released by Leven Miniatures at a future date. I have two to paint up so will get this cleaned up at the same time I do all the others ones I picked up at York.
Tajima 1 Miniatures also arrived (always a fast service from these guys). these are the smallest tuft size they do. Until recently the only colour available was a dark green. The ones on the left are called moss and will fit best with the basing I do. The light green may be a little too light but will still see some action.
So not a bad day at all hobby wise, now I need to make use of the extra time before I hopefully get back into work.
Sorry to hear about the source of your extra time... on the plus side extra time?
ReplyDeleteEverything has a silver lining or so you can view it.
ReplyDeleteNice loots Ian. Sorry to hear that they've let you go - here's to you finding a new job soon.
ReplyDeleteGood luck finding a new situation.

ReplyDeleteBugger mate I am very sorry to hear that about the old job and I hope and wish you all the best in quickly finding a new one.
ReplyDeleteI wish you to get very soon a new job ... it's a kind of extra-time which is not the best ... Good luck !
ReplyDeleteSorry to here the bad news Ian, I'm sure you'll be back working soon.
ReplyDeleteI like the bright green tufts, now with all that spare time, lets see them stuck on some bases!
Tough news about the job. Best of luck on the future hunt.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear the news, Ian. I was hoping it would not go that way for you. Really sucks.
ReplyDeleteGo well painting and job hunting
ReplyDeleteTough luck on the job front, Ian. This would be a perfect time to concentrate on the hobby if only a job hunt did not interfere.
ReplyDeleteGood hunting to you!
Good luck with those goodies!
ReplyDelete;-)
Sorry to hear about your job situation! Hopefully you'll find something else soon.
ReplyDeleteBut until then a bit more hobby time then :)
More painting bud.
ReplyDeleteBack to gaming next week as well.
Yaaaaaay
Thanks for all the nice comments, finally got back behind a brush this evening. Did not really fancy it yesterday but did have a longish prep session so I did get some things done yesterday. Today was all taken up right up to late afternoon so this evening was the earliest I could get behind a brush. Got a good start on the Roman cavalry though
