Readers might have noticed that I was not as active on the blog lately as usual. Well that is because I was preparing for my first bar exam out of three, so painting figures took small priority.
Good news is that I completed the examination so now I'm hopefully going to have more spare time, at least until I start preparing for the second one in earnest, which I plan to take at the end of January.
Anyways, I still managed to squeeze in some painting and modelling time, the results of which are:
28mm
Painted (requires varnish and basing)
8x Warlord Landsknecht pike
Assembled
26x Perry Mercenaries (2 command, 19 pike, 5 shot)
I do not count this towards my painting goals, but I'm well into the process of rebasing my Italian Wars collection (as mentioned on my miscellaneous blog).
1/2000
Painted (requires varnish and basing)
4x Iron Duke class battleship
This brings the month's Painting Unit output to 188, the poorest number of the year.
Purchases
I bought a bunch of grey paints for my ship models (along with a rust and linoleum brown colour).
Further, I purchased two boxes' worth of Perry Mercenaries, which will become my Italian Wars Swiss pike, and Italian/French missile troops.
I know the pikemen's garment would be a bit early for the period, but I can do a lot of head swaps with remaining Warlord Landsknecht heads to make them look better, and I can bolster them later with some Artizan, TAG and Foundry figures.
I contemplated the new Warlord Games metal Swiss but they are not very convincing in my eyes.
