As part of finishing of the dwarves, I painted their bases. Then I foolishly got some sand out to do a base. Then it didn't stop. Anything on the tabletop that needed sand n the base got a dusting, The few that have dried even got some paint. It started with the Kobolds, then moved onto a few Vikings some sci fi stuff and finally some zombies. When I get the urge to do some basing, I tend to go for it in a big way as I hate doing it. I might get something finished tomorrow but as I have parents evening, I doubt I will get much time to do anything.
I know this feeling all too well mate.
ReplyDeleteBut sooon the last will be done and you can bath in the glory an satisfaction of finishing them.
I guess whilst they are on the workbench at least I can admire them. I guess they all end up in a box sooner or later. I need a purpose to get them finished.
DeleteAh, I do basing en masse as well, it tends to get dirty and sand is everywhere so best to go large and rarely :D
ReplyDeleteI need to work with a plan to make it easier. I should put sand on the bases when I glue the figures down. I am debating pinning figures to the bases, will cut down on the amount og glue on the base.
DeleteThat's a wonderfully busy table you have there.
ReplyDeleteBusy is good? You don't get to see the pile of junk next to the bench. I am not a completer finisher more of a shaper/initiator.
DeleteYou have been very busy! I do things the same as well do them in batch's takes away some of the burden.
ReplyDeleteBusy or too much time on my hands. I am hiding from my other half, its easier..
DeleteThis is probably a bad thing.
But at least I am getting stuff done again.
I might have to make that my explanation for when I turn up with figures that don't have texture on the bases,
ReplyDeleteI buy a lot of resin bases now and drill the legs.
