On the workbench. Doing some War of Austrian Succession Garde Francaise. Using contrast paints. They are not my best work, but they will look the part at table top distance.
Re: What's on your workbench?
The week following an Ayton event always sees a burst of enthusiasm from me before the usual malaise sets back in!
Since getting back i've made and finished five pieces of desert themed scenery that are pretty much scale agnostic.
However they would look a bit odd with the other things i've been doing yesterday and today.
Following Alex's DBN game I thought i'd make use of the 3mm early Napoleonics I found in a small box, in the week before Ayton. (Between four and five thousand figures in a container no bigger than a VHS box )
So i've painted a based 11 elements/bases/brigades for DBN.
The colour schemes i'm using are "imagination" based so no research needed and being very basic paintjobs it doesn't take long to get a (nominally) 60 figure element done

I'm going to crack on with painting 36 Acheans and Trojans....then start gluing up Late Romans for Ayton next year.
Re: What's on your workbench?
I've had a mojo surge too. Ended up mostly painting Caesarian Romans that I now regret putting the time into as it looks like the shield design transfers are going to be a nightmare. Put a bit of paint on more Goths though and finished undercoating the Arthurian Grenadiers.
Re: What's on your workbench?
Decided that with all the unfinished projects and raw lead, the most important thing was replacing all the perfectly good cardboard counters in Undaunted, Battle of Britain, with 3d printed planes... so been printing and painting a load of 1/600 WW2 aircraft.

Re: What's on your workbench?
do you have a stuka model to print, or a F4U Corair?
