Too much paint, too much bunny


Having embarked on my project to paint more figures especially the C)4 Thieves, I found, or rather didn’t find the paints I wanted.

Having hurriedly packed them, they were all over the place, and I got fed up of trying to find the right colour only to find I had three pots of the same shade, but not the base or highlight.

This is about 1/2 of the paints I have, and I’m sorting through. They’re the Foundry paint system which is excellent.

More paints on MDF shelving unit. As well as Foundry I use some various GW/Citadel paints to bulk out the system, mostly for foundation paints, washes and metallics as they have a larger range. Plus with stuff like Agrax Earthshade I can pick up a load in one go for scenery projects.

So I’m now doing an audit, ditching the dried (or nearly dried) out pots of paint and working out what ones to store for later use, ones to pass on to mates, or which ones I need to buy. Looks like flesh tones are the order I’ll need to put in.

Still not able to find a range that does metallic colours (blue, green, purple etc), I had been pointed at Coat’d’arms but they no longer do them, so it looks like the Blanitsu style of the tomb palette on an ad-hoc basis.

Talking of too much…

<y parents' had visitors and went out for the day, leaving me in charge, so Humphrey their cat decided to use this opportunity to bring home his second rabbit in a year, and let it loose in the kitchen.

I helped him recapture the live rabbit, and expelled them from the house, where he promptly hid under the trees in the garden and devoured the bunny.

He turned up at 10pm, stretched out a VERY LARGE BUNNY TUMMY, and refused to move, or eat any food until this afternoon.
