September 2023

 A slower month in the hobby...some continued progress but no major accomplishments. I missed the club day (WW2 Air War game).

I have been slowly working on the 6mm sci fi figures. Need to get motivated on this resurgent project.

I dipped my toes into a new project...28mm sci fi Quar (grim WW1 like anteaters in a perpetual war). I sources some cheap figures, even received over 20 for free from a generous gamer. I then hit pause...the designer is coming out with the range in plastic and they are slightly bigger. I am going to wait until I see them and decide if I will only go with the newer figures.

August 2023

 A second round of COVID kept me away from the club game this month. This was especially disappointing since I missed Historicon due to work last month.

I did get in some good painting time and a large battle in my Fantasy Black Powder campaign.

Spending was OK...but I have been tempted by yet another project. I jumped into 28mm sci Fi Quar figures (grim dark WW1 type sci fi) from Zombiesmith. I posted my interest on TMP, and received 25 figures for free from another gamer...and bought a batch of 30.

28mm generic fantasy figures, all done with speedpaints. This is another reboot project (like the 6mm sci fi). I will start with 5 Leagues from the Borderlands, then build up into some larger skirmish games with Feudal Patrol. I envision it as an exploration, kingdom building game with lite RPG elements.

I have to decide if I start the 6mm sci fi project reboot, next batch of Albedo figures, or start on the Quar.
