2023 Week Nineteen Painting Blog

Monday

Hobbystreak day 128.

Bank holiday Monday so I of course got distracted by other things and just did some cleaning up of the base coats on the Stormcast.

Tuesday

Hobbystream day 129.

I finally got around to making some sprue goo (old sprue disolved in glue) as my Tamyia Extra Thin bottle was getting a bit low. I picked up a pot of their airbrush thinner a few months ago as well so I can top it up. They’re basically the same thing but do smell different so aren’t exactly the same. I used it to fill some gaps on minis and wow, should have done this years ago.

Wednesday

Hobbystreak day 130.

Very little painting today, the weather was nice and too much work. Did do some though.

Thursday

Hobbystreak day 131.

Almost didn’t get any painting done today, but managed to do a few seconds late in the day.

Friday

Hobbystreak day 132.

My enthusiasm for painting is waning as the weather gets better and if I wasn’t doing this “at least do something each day” thing I probably would forget about it for months. So at least that’s a good reason to do it.

Saturday

Hobbystreak day 133.

So the latest killteam sold out in seconds and yet the latest warcry didn’t. Is it really that unpopular, or did they for some reason make more of it? With Games Workshop you can never tell if they’re being logical.

Sunday

Hobbystreak day 134.

Another week ends with very little progress to show for it. Did the bases for the stormcast on my desk, which helps.
