I have more modest progress to show than expected this week. I spent nearly all of the week painting a single Fallout mini. Its another raider and one of the more colorful in the box. Not only does she have pigtails and a gas mask (which surprisingly are uncommon in Fallout) but she also has an interesting base with window frames and broken glass. I tried to improvise something that looks like broken glass. It looks a bit like ice though as well for better and worse…

I decided to give her blue hair as well because I thought it would be a fun challenge. Technically, I have painted blue hair before on Drazhar pictured below but I did some photo referencing and found a scheme called ice blue that at least some girls have nowadays. I don’t know if it looks as different from Drazhar as I anticipated but I’m happy with it.


As has been the case with the last few Fallout minis I’ve painted, I haven’t applied any rust to this lady yet and I think it will look quite a bit better when I do. I’ll certainly share a photo of the finished mini when I get around to it. I know used to complain that the Synth minis take forever to paint and these Raiders which are covered in straps aren’t a lot better. I have four more in the Core Box to paint but thankfully only two of those are covered in straps so at least there is some solace there. I’ll keep chipping away at them as the mood strikes.

I got my new gaming table this week and it did not go as expected. The table is really high quality and I don’t think it will collapse unless you put over the recommended weight of 350 pounds (!) on it which is great. The table is also quite tall so you can play standing up which I really like too. However, the table weighs 40 pounds so its not as easy or simple to setup and take down as I expected. I really should have double-checked on that before I got it but oh well. After setting it up once, I now know that I need to start lifting some weights to help make it easier for me to handle it. We’ll call the extra motivation to exercise a bonus! Please pardon the mess behind the table in the photo as well. A lot of that is recycling and remnants from the packaging that hadn’t been disposed of at the time.
Next weekend is the MMSI (Military Miniature Society of Illinois) show here in Chicago so I’ll be “exhibiting” my latest display projects and hoping to win a medal for my efforts. This will be my first time attending this show so I don’t know exactly what to expect. They use an Open System of judging so instead of doing what Games Workshop does where there is a top 3 (and some consolation prizes for other entries but no trophy obviously), in the MMSI system, if 20 people show up with Gold level work, they each get a Gold medal, no questions asked. So it should be both illuminating and a bit more rewarding than entering Golden Demon and getting a green sticker! I’ll have a full report sometime next weekend I would imagine.
As I’m sure some of you know, Games Workshop previewed some more new minis this weekend and there were a couple that got me excited. There were a lot of “Character” or “HQ” type of minis this go around. My favorite by far is the new Imotekh which has a really cool looking cape. Somebody out there is going to do something crazy awesome and innovative with it, I predict. He might be the mini to finally get me to paint a Necron again. I’ve been reluctant because they are not easy to paint in NMM but the desire is absolutely there.


And how about those Bretonnians for The Old World!? GW showed off a lot of that army surprisingly and they look great. Even just the fairly simple infantry models look great. I haven’t painted one in forever but I like a good standard bearer like the Bretonnians are getting.

While she is simpler than the lass on a unicorn, the Handmaiden is also great. She’s clean, she’s simple, there’s tons of ways you could paint her, and most importantly, she looks like a blast to paint.

Truthfully, I could show nearly everything GW teased for The Old World because it all looks fantastic. The Old World really, really appeals to me as I like “classic” or traditional fantasy miniatures and I can see myself painting a lot more stuff in that space instead of Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40k for display projects.
In this week’s Comics Corner, I managed to read two more new series from Image Comics. I think the first volume of Image Comics is coming to an end soon so we’ll see how Comics Corner evolves once I can no longer easily check out new series. Anyway, on with the reviews!

Undiscovered Country – First up, its another post-apocalyptic book and its written by Scott Snyder who also wrote Nocterra, which I really liked. This book is a lot different and kind of the opposite of Nocterra. It starts off with a convoluted plot that’s not easy to get into. The US put up giant walls and withdrew from the rest of the world. There is also a pandemic threatening the globe. If this sounds a bit like the Trump administration, then you would not be wrong. Fortunately, most of that fades into the background once the characters get over the wall and enter the US. It turns out that the book is actually Mad Max in the US but everything’s on acid.

That is really what Undiscovered Country focuses on and its fun once it does. Since the US is now a maze of walls, it seems like every volume is going to be pretty different from the last since it focuses on a different section that is walled off. That sounds intriguing. It took a couple issues for me to get into it but once I was done, I felt like I’d like to see where it goes from here.
3.5 stars out of 5. I will be reading the next volume when I get the chance.

Starlight – While nothing I’ve read this year surpasses, Y The Last Man, this is undoubtedly one of the better things I’ve checked out. This is another Mark Millar book as I continue to try to read everything he’s written. It turns out that he really likes Unforgiven because this is basically Unforgiven meets Buck Rodgers or Star Wars. I won’t spoil anything as usual but the first issue is actually quite emotional and it makes you feel for the protagonist. From then on, the story is a fun pulp story full of action and adventure. While the plot and characters are pretty predictable and not terribly original, this is a really fun and satisfying read. I had a hard time putting it down. Best of all, there is just one volume in the whole series so its easy to get the whole story.

I didn’t love the art when I started reading but it grew on me and I think the artist brought this world to life nicely. I haven’t read a lot lately that I’d really recommend but this is one that I think just about anyone would enjoy. So if you’re at all intrigued, be sure and check it out!
4.5 out of 5 stars. I would gladly read more if there was another volume to read.

Cheers, Dave! Sasha Banks is a good call. I hadn’t thought of her but she is definitely a famous person who’s had blue hair at various points. I think some dust on the glass is a great idea. I’ll add some on before I varnish and add rust effects.
Yeah, this table is going to force me to buy some weights so its costing me more money than I expected in the end haha. And GW has already put out plenty of great options for me. I have more now than I can really follow through on. In that sense, it is a tough time to be alive haha!
Thank you for the kind words on the competition as well. It will be curious to see how it all goes. Its going to be a lot different than Adepticon and Golden Demon for sure.
And lastly, Starlight is definitely inspired by Flash Gordon and the villain looks a lot like Ming the Merciless. I don’t know how mean Ming is in Flash Gordon but the villain in Starlight could be given the title “the Merciless” too, I reckon! 🙂

You found one hefty table for sure, haha! I haven’t played games standing up, but I use a standing desk for work, so that’s intriguing.
The Imotehk guy’s pose looks like it’s lifted from Dr. Doom (or Darth Vader). Very classic villain pose. I don’t usually like the GW studio painters, but that Handmaiden is really nice. I love the green tint on white. I need to try that sometime.

Probably too many topics! I’ve been saying next week’s post will be shorter but it hasn’t happened yet.
These straps are really small so they require some finesse to paint well. I prefer GW’s chunkier straps, if I’m honest. The glass could definitely be improved as well. I’ll see if I can make it look a little better. I should probably do some photo reference to figure out what its missing.
Its great to hear your thoughts on the new minis and unsurprisingly, I agree with everything you said. I’d recommend trying some glazing if you want to get a similar effect to the ‘Eavy Metal team.
Undiscovered Country could develop into a really nice series. I think there are three volumes out right now. I’m not sure if Scott Snyder is still writing it currently or not. You know how it is with Image books. They don’t necessarily finish and if they do, it tends to be slower than a Marvel or DC book.

Oh, that’s too bad…the Image series I’ve followed kept the same writers and usually artists throughout. But I’m thinking of some of their longer titles like Savage Dragon, Walking Dead, and Invincible.
I haven’t painted any Fallout minis (I’m assuming they are 32mm), some can only imagine how bad they are.
I’ve had a few 28mm with a bit too many straps for my taste.
And the Van Saar Necromunda pretty much made me quit painting after highlighting all those stupid little plates! 😜
But the most important thing is you got a great looking Raider! 😃

I probably could have described that a bit better! With Image books, it isn’t so much that the creative team changes, its that they stop making the series, sometimes prematurely. Meaning they make a volume or two that might have an interesting premise but I’m guessing for business reasons, it doesn’t get finished and you never get the full story. I think the Image books that have bigger named creators on them are somewhat likely to have the writer/artist pulled into bigger projects with other publishers and then the Image books they started get left behind as well. Savage Dragon, Walking Dead, and Invincible are the rare exceptions that are popular enough that they get to go on until the creator is ready to wrap it up. Saga will definitely be in that category but I’m not sure off the top of my head what else will have a 50+ issue run. I’d guess it is a very slim percentage compared to what is released. Not that every comic is going for that of course, I think there are some that are happy to be a volume or two long before calling it quits and there’s nothing wrong with that.
Fallout minis are 32mm but non-heroic so they’re slimmer than what GW makes. The straps are so small that its hard to edge highlight them. I have done it on previous minis but it is a pain. The “scratched leather” look is easier so I’ve been doing that more and more. Its always nice to get some more Fallout minis done. They take me about a week per miniature on average so its taken quite a bit of time to build up my collection and there are so many more to paint as I get the time and desire too.
Oh and don’t think me mental, but I’d love to paint a Van Saar mini. Those plates are great for display painting! 🙂
LikeLiked by 3 people
Well, let me know how your Van Saar goes!! 😂😂😂
I’m pretty sure it was after painting those that I dropped out of painting for a good year or more. I don’t think that was the only factor, but GW’s lame handling of Newcromunda and painting all those little bits definitely turned me off. I think our daughter was becoming more of a handful too, so there wasn’t as much time anymore. I kind of wished I had for back into painting by painting D&D minis though, I could have enough for just about any Fantasy game now and probably a SciFi one too. I’m not a fast painter though. There’s probably been a few minis I’ve painted in 6-8 hours. But it’s hard to say because I tend to jump from one to another. Plus some of my stuff is batch painting…and one of the batches I’m painting now seems to be taking longer than it would have to paint them one by one. I’m sure I’m wrong about that, but they have been taking forever and I’m ready to be done with them.
I understand what you mean about Image titles. Yea, some don’t sell well enough and get cancelled or the creator leaves. That last part really sucks when it’s a favorite creator. Thats happened quite a bit throughout history. The artist gets a really good idea, but then doesn’t pick up enough people and so they either leave or it gets cancelled. I think they are way less lenient nowadays that they used to be. X-Men and Daredevil were on the cusp of cancellation in the past. DD probably many times. But even Wolfman/Perez’s New Teen Titans was near cancellation but they pushed for a few more issues and it’s become one of DCs most well known group of characters. So you never know!

You can bet that I’d only paint one Van Saar because I’m not playing the game. Those minis are like the ones for Infinity in that they favor smooth painting which is my calling card 🙂 I struggle with batch painting too. I don’t enjoy it that much. I basically only do it for Hellboy which I’ve barely painted lately. I much prefer to take my time with a single miniature and see how far I can take it. I have the luxury of painting an hour and half to two and a half hours most days though. I’m very lucky in that regard. Even with that privilege, I still say paint at your favorite speed and whatever delivers the results you’re looking for or find most satisfying to achieve.
I guess when you think of it, any series can be cancelled or end prematurely. For me, I find a situation where there clearly was a much bigger story to tell but it ends much sooner than the author intends to be more frustrating for whatever reason. Its also hard to mentally commit to a series if you think it won’t ever finish I suppose. That is not easy to predict though!

I try to paint an hour a night, five days a week. When I’m in the swing of things, I tend to stick with it pretty well. When something throws my schedule off though, it’s hard to get back on to it. Was the same way with running for me. When I was single, I ran all the time, like clockwork. Family life made that much harder though. Not that I’d ever give up my family, haha!!
Oh yea, following a series that suddenly ends sucks quite a bit. I tend to start things that have already been out and are usually finished already. Same with TV shows. Partly because I’m so far behind, but also it gives me the chance to see something from start to finish.

I think an hour a night for five days is great! I’m a big believer in good habits and painting is one of those things where doing it consistently can only help you. Having said that, there are interruptions sometimes and those aren’t a huge deal or anything to worry about so you don’t have to Rip Van Winkle your family or anything like that 😉
That is very true on watching TV show that is ongoing versus one that is completed. I’m the same way and its nice to dig into a story without having to wait to see the ending. I think that is probably more fun than waiting truthfully, but it takes great patience to wait for a series to finish at the same time.

In terms of Born Again, it is a little concerning that the people from the original show aren’t involved and Disney just fired the writing team they had. Having said that, Rogue One was a similar mess in terms of getting it made but is a great movie in my opinion so there’s still reason to hope! I just really hope they don’t let us down with this one.

Bad blood I guess.

Imotekh looks good. He doesn’t really excite me personally but then again I’ve never been that keen on the Stormlord as a character.

I don’t know anything about Imotekh as a character and I’ve failed miserably to read anything Warhammer related since I pestered you about it. The shame of it all! Those Striking Scorpions should look great painted up too. Truthfully, when I “played” 40k, or to be more accurate, painted and never really ended up playing the game, the Eldar minis were really old and unimpressive, particularly the Aspect Warriors. I have no idea why I bought them in hindsight. Truthfully, its hard for me to wrap my mind around them being impressive sculpts now and I don’t give them their due. The Howling Banshees for example are excellent. Having said that, I will be sure to mark this day in the annals of history as the one where Wudu got excited about some Space Elves!

I’ll definitely be coming to you for advice when I get to that stage. Right now I’m pondering colour schemes. Part of me leans towards blues and greys, and part of me wonders about a royal purple. Dunno, I’ll cross that bridge when I get there. The scorpions themselves will almost certainly be in the studio style, or maybe black and yellow.

There are ways to get the darker tones into a miniature you’re painting without relying on the typical grimdark tricks (lots of black and brown washes). Its easiest to do that with glazing like I do in display projects but I’d have to think about how to accomplish that with gaming miniatures effectively.
With all that said, I think its great you’re thinking about schemes already. I really like the purple idea but I’d recommend looking around on the internet for inspiration too. Something will get your fancy and with the Eldar, your imagination can absolutely run wild.
I think we’ve talked about his work before but I’d recommend looking at Hendarion’s Eldar too. He’s the best Eldar painter in the world for my money. Here’s a link to his Instagram but you can find him outside of social media, I think too. https://www.instagram.com/hendarion/
