Some 28 mm figures from Death May Die.  When you zoom in on single minis like this, it is quite apparent how slipshod the painting actually is. But I consider them good enough to play the board game.  My quality may be questionable, but I'm trying to keep up with quantity!

Unfortunately a slow week for painting.  I did get to some Joan of Arc (Time of Legends) figures.  I'm working on the Ottoman army right now.

Here are two bases of Ottoman swordsmen (3 to a base).

Painting Challenge: Week ending January 4, 2020


December 29, 2019 through January 4, 2020

More Cthulhu: Death May Die


Cthulhu:



Star Spawn





Dagon



Yog Sothoth




Danse Macabre Skeletons

From Time of Legends: Joan of Arc.  Six 18 mm skeletons dancing wildly with heads back. Based.






Crossbowmen

18 mm crossbowmen from Time of Legends: Joan of Arc. Based.



More foot soldiers for Joan of Arc

Some more 18 mm foot soldiers (halberdiers and pikemen).  In this case I am trying a new (to me) method of using a transparent acrylic base so that the printed gameboard terrain will show through.  Interesting concept, although extra work to trim the bases off the minis and pin them into the acrylic.


Points Earned


Entering the week: 125 points

1 @ 28 mm vehicle:  1 x 10 = 10
3 @ 28 mm large vehicle*:  3 x 12.5 = 37.5
18 @ 18 mm foot figure**:  18 x 3 = 54
12 @ 18 mm based:  12 x 3 x 0.2 = 7.2

Weekly total:  108.7 points

End of week campaign total: 233.7 points

* Cthulhu is quite large (85 mm to the top of the head, 110 mm to the top of the wings), so I decided to assign it 12.5 points instead of 10.  The system calls for 10 for a mounted figure and 20 for a vehicle.  Cthulhu is not as big as a 28 mm tank, but definitely bigger than a 28 mm mounted figure, so that's my logic.  I did the same for Dagon, who is about as big as Cthulhu. And Yog is about 80 mm, so gave him 12.5 points as well.

** I'm using 3 points for an 18 mm foot soldier figure - interpolated from 2 for a 15 mm figures and 4 for a 20 mm figure.
