Project has been put on hold...

Unfortunately my Empire project has been put on hold for the next 6-12 weeks...

This is why...

I came off my bike last week and cracked my scaphoid bone. The doc has said that it could be a long term injury. but hopefully not too long. Being right handed I cant hold a paint brush or any tools. so there will be no progress till further notice. :(

Finally put brush to plastic

I finally got a chance to start painting over the weekend. Undercoated a unit of greatswords and worked out a colour scheme.

Its still quite rough, but once I get the colours sorted out i will tidy it up...

Another part of the collection ordered

I put in an order for 4 boxes of Demigryph knights last night. These things are awesome minis...

This picture is taken from the games workshop website. Each box has parts for 3 knights. which is very rude because i paid $78 per box...

I also ordered an Army painter mega paint set, which has a range of paints from the Army painter range and a few brushes. I needed to buy some more colours to be able to start on the empire painting and the Mega paint set was the most cost effective way of doing it. lol

Ill post some pics of the work in progress so far when the order turns up.

Alternative Creative Focus

My Empire project has been put on hold this last 2 weeks, I had a friend ask me to design her a tattoo (ive posted the design at triggazart.blogspot.com). So ive been working on that this weekend. Also had another friend who is a photographer ask me if I would be interested in doing some body painting for an upcoming photo shoot she is doing. So I did some sketches up for that as well.

My Empire project has been moving along slowly... Havent done any painting yet, but ive been assembling a lot of the minis in preparation for paint. Ill take some work in progress photos soon. :)
