Back to steady progress

 
I finally got the first rank of the Bretonnian Men at Arms finished. They've been "in progress" for a whole long time. I'll work on the second rank in a bit, but doing it by rank keeps it to manageable numbers.


While waiting for the Men at Arms glue to dry I got out the Combined Army reinforcements pack to clean up and assemble in between times. They are quite complicated and a little spindly, so I'm a bit nervous about how much faff they're going to be...


The easiest of them proved to be a faff. This "Base Operator" started off OK, but the moment I started trying to glue his left arm on, it all went wrong. It wouldn't stay on, and while it seemed to have a firm connection it turned out to not be meeting cleanly. I've set it down to let the glue dry before I get back to it. I'm likely to file it down and then mark it up for pinning to make sure it stays on next time.


That said . . . it's time to get the painting tray out again. I've got some Battlemechs, a rogue in a wheelchair and some Halfling adventurers to finish up. My hope is to get a few of these long neglected projects finished up before the end of the year.
