Mucked Up and Mucked About. And Some Photographs too.

I think I spoke too soon about settling in. I've been given a new date for having our internet connection set-up at my home/work-place: the 19th of February. Unbelievable. 3 weeks to set up an internet connection. A business connection, no less. And that's the fastest date we could find when we starting shopping around again after TESCO kept pushing the installation back until the 23rd of March!

The end result of this is that I've having to make a daily round trip of an hour and twenty minutes to access my work emails and reply to customer's emails. That's an hour and twenty minutes of daylight every day when I'm not actually painting. Plus the fact that I obviously can't hang around means I need to wait at least a day before I can see a customer or suppliers responsee. This means I'm getting mucked about something silly and -even worse- it means my customers are getting mucked about. Which makes me very mad.

What's even more frustrating is that we're now 36 days into 2013 and I've been completely healthy for just six of them. I wasn't in Folkestone for three days before I caught a dose of Tonsillitis, Earache and another cold that Caroline brought back from her Foundation class. I got rid of the Tonsillitis easily enough by pickling myself in Chamomile tea but it's left an Earache behind that's been damnably hard to shift. Luckily, I've been able to keep working this time, without having to take any days off painting. Even so, between daily internet trips and pauses to cough, sneeze, snort or otherwise expel mucousy gobbets; productivity is way down.

Horus Heresy World Eaters Special Weapon Squad

Still, here a few photographs of some completed miniatures from the World Eaters Army I'm painting at the moment. I have a few more of these ready to be photographed, and many more that are nearing completion. Most of the Command Squad is finished, apart from a few bits of detail and the banner, so look for photographs of that soon. Also, the Dreadnaught Squadron should be finished tomorrow.

Horus Heresy World Eaters Terminator Squad

I'm also working on a Heresy Miniatures Alien Predator called a Hurn today, hopefully there will be pictures of that in a day or so too. I'm also painting a Resin Librarian for Gav, whom I painted the Chaos Blood Bowl Team for. I'm having a hard time with this miniature. I just can't seem to get it right. I must have stripped it three of four times by now. Luckily, it's a freebie, otherwise it would be very overdue by now.
