I've been feeling a little bored by the Work-In-Progress Wednesdays over the last few weeks... or even months...? It's been feeling less like "Work-In-Progress Wednesdays" and more like "What's-On-the-Workbench-and-NOT-being-Worked-On Wednesdays" Where I just keep posting remarkably similar photos of the same miniatures that HAVEN'T actually had any work done on them in the last week (or MONTH!?).
So here is a shorter series of pics of stuff I've actually been working on! (there is still LOADS of the same stuff crowding the workbench that I've been taking pictures of for the last few months!)
I have been working on some bases for miniatures I'm planning to assemble in the next bit - mostly Chaos/Darkoath Marauders and the Corvus Cabal miniatures I picked up on the weekend.
Speaking of miniatures picked up on the weekend...
I assembled and started on the Provisionally Prepared Ratling Sniper team. I don't often paint things in parts and then assemble... but this one seemed like I should... there have been more and more miniatures lately that I've felt, if I had the patience, it probably would have been smarter to assemble parts and paint them before putting the the whole thing together...
I also assembled and started painting Lady Annika and Kritza the Rat Prince... even though I won't be needing them for MONTHS, likely... and did NOT work on ANY of the Warhammer Quest heroes that I probably could have used this evening!?
I also started on the Slaves to Darkness Endless spells I picked up over the weekend... which is super smart, considering I don't really have any Slaves to Darkness miniatures... other than Khagra's Ravager's and Hargax's Pit Beasts...
This is the Darkfire Daemonrift... I was trying to make purple flames... Not sure it's really working... The base and miniature on these are not yet attached as I realized it would probably work out better for these if I painted them separately and then attached - as both parts would require a fair bit of drybrushing and if they were attached it would mean and endless loop of going back and fixing bits that I'd accidentally got the dry brushing colour of one on the other... ugh... it's workedout pretty well working on the parts separately... not sure if I'm loving the purple flames though...
The Realmscourge Rupture is coming along... starting to feel like these might have done well to paint separately too... ah, well...
The Eightfold Doom-Sigil... I was thinking of doing pink or blue flames on this... but considering how the purple flame on the Darkfire Daemonrift, I may just do regular red/orange/yellow flame...
Maybe that's the problem... regular flames are red and orange and yellow... the purple flames are just purple of different values... the monotone just isn't as interesting? I'm not sure purple/blue/green flames would really work though. Maybe if it was for a Tzeentch-leaning army... but my Slaves to Darkness I always imagined allied to the Hedonites of Slaanesh - my first chaos army...
I've also, finally done some work on one of the other Slaanesh Endless Spells: the Dreadful Visage! It is very nearly done...
There are still the same Warhammer Underworlds Warbands on the workbench... and the last of the Sylvaneth and Nighthaunts... and more tokens and heroes and villains for Warhammer Quest: Cursed City... And a smattering of Slaves to Darkness Heroes and cavalry... hopefully I'll get to them at some point!?
What are YOU working on this week!?
