...was not that great, as it is the busiest month of the year for me.
While I was able to work on some Napoleonics at the beginning of the month, report writing and preparing for a presentation ate up both time and mental focus.
Still, there is a BKC game today, and Daniel and I will be fielding our Soviets against a Japanese-German unholy alliance!

I did manage to get a Soviet MMG team together, and have made progress on the artillery battery. The 76.2mm guns are almost completely painted save the tires- you can see one of them here. I also finished one crew member. My first plastic minis since my Airfix days; years and years and years ago! It took some getting used to the different "feel" of the brush on the figure, but it painted up extremely well and I am very pleased with it.
The MMG team (from Fantassin-now Warmodelling- plus one by FAA) has been based, but not yet painted. I used to apply Tamiya putty to the base and texture it with a toothpick, but it was laborious, messy, and the fumes ate up by already all-too-quickly diminishing number of brain cells, so I needed to find an alternative.
Once the sand has dried out thoroughly, I'll paint it the same colour as my other bases and see how it turns out.
