An awful lot of cases

 
Part of the process of moving house is that you have to put everything into boxes then take it out again. This has a side effect of you starting to take stock of just quite how much stuff your life has accumulated.

This is my pile of KR cases of painted or assembled models. With the exception of a couple of Infinity cases, they're now all in the loft so they're out of the way while other sorting and unpacking happens. Longer term - this is more stuff than I have time to really play with, so they will be gone through for eBay at some point in the future.


The conservatory, our current repository of hobby boxes, is slowly getting to the point of being functional. We're now to the point of having a table space available, and the first planned activity is getting some things listed on eBay.

The current plan is to spend the bank holiday weekend taking photos and making listings, scheduling things to go live on the last weekend of August. 


That said, I am slowly finding all the bits I'll need to play Infinity, as there's some local folk keen to start learning. It's a little way off yet, as "delightful house" is higher on the priority list, but soon. Soon.

Something from the bottom of the garden...


I've finished these two "Hoodie Crows" from the Statuesque Miniatures "Left at the Bottom of the Garden" range. I've painted them up to be used as creepy puppet birds working as familiars for witches, hags and fae in D&D, Pathfinder and so on.

There's a teeny bit of time left in the month, and I don't think I'm going to get the Terrain Crate stuff finished this month. The bad undercoat job has just taken all the wind out of it! I am away a lot of weekends in March, so my current goals is to finish up the Terrain Crate stuff and maybe see if I can get the Sphinx done for the Mayacast Masterglass painting competition. There's a strong temptation, still, to sack that off and focus on just getting the half done stuff on the desk sorted. With such a busy month, though, there's also the temptation to ignore both problems and paint some quick simple miniatures to cheer myself up with some success after a stalled out month.
