Lyndons log of seemingly random stuff!

I’d say the arms look too thin for that belly, but then I realized that I’m built that way…. So all good, I guess…My entry for Yakcomp 41, a Squat Beastmaster
I've given him a pistol arm from the Stargrave Crews, and a electric prod built from a pitchfork, so it should also be handy if any castles need storming.
There's just a little bit of putty work left to do, and I can get to painting him and his beasties.
Us boys tend to store most of our Schnitzels close to the center of gravity, I am afraid.I’d say the arms look too thin for that belly, but then I realized that I’m built that way…. So all good, I guess…
I managed to spend some hobby time painting, so here's my yakcomp entry this morning
And after some colouring in.
I'm pretty happy how the toad is coming along, so I'll copy the method for the other 2.

More progress!
There's just a few things to finish off, and a couple of touch ups to do.
Hopefully I can get all this done before the end of the month so I have an entry for the FYSC as well.

I've just realised that I never posted my final yakcomp entry pic here
And while working on beasties, I also managed to finish some worms that will probably make a good encounter for Stargrave or 5 Parsecs (although I finished them too late to squeeze them into the yakcomp entry)
At least there is a decent amount of stuff for the FYSC this month

One of the buildings in my 5 parsecs thread was in a sorry state of repair. I've had to carefully angle shots so you can't tell there was an entire wall missing.
A (fairly quick) repair and repaint later, and it looks so much better (and will also fit in the underhive)
I've also started work on a larger structure using the same techniques as the original, probably destined to be some sort of admin center or such like. Ignore the masking tape holding it together for now.

Work is starting on Yakcomp 42. So far, all I've got is a torso.
Now to go raid the bits box to find/make him another arm.

Minor update time
An arm from the Frostgrave Wizards fits well, and seemed thematic, and I've also rustled up a bodyguard I'm hoping to paint alongside.
I've also found half a plastic bauble that will look good painted up as a force dome.

I can always wrap it in some sort of glowy effect if needed, but the angle of the photo doesn't help. Or I could just paint it silver and claim it's a cheap bionic.Not sure, kinda reminiscent of the Deadpool tiny hand scene.
But yes, now you mention it, the hand does look a little small
One hand replacement surgery later.
The old space marine hands were similar in size to his other hand, so I used one of those.

Presenting, the stuff I almost finished in May. Just 2 days late for the FYSC
Oh well, I can enter them into this months now.
First up is a couple of simple fences. I prefer the one with the larger mesh, but after making it realised that I had used the last piece.
I started with 2 sections as that meets the terrain requirements for 5 parsecs, but definitely need more.
Next up is an Ork buggy for GoMo, which seems to have taken forever, and has reminded me why I hate painting parts and then assembling afterwards. There's always a part I miss and have to do later. This time it was the gunner.
Finally, Indigo in my 5 parsecs crew has had a makeover.
Of course, there are still a lot of WIPs to finish. Hopefully I can get my Yakcomp entry finished next.

It's been another slow month hobby wise
All I've finished so far are a zombie that has been loose in my painting box for months (if not years), and an old Eldar guardian (that I don't even remember assembling, and is probably 20+ years old) painted as a Precursor for 5 parsecs.
On the plus side, I've started another project. I really should slow down and finish more

Nothing to show for over a month now, but Tribemeet is coming so I need* a new pit slave.
As the last one used a new Goliath as a base, this time I went for an Escher.
Originally designed to maintain horticulture for a rich guilder, Edlyn's pruning shears have proved deadly, both in and out of the pit.
*who doesn't need more pit slaves?

Really cool, everyone always thinks of Pit Slaves as lobotomised brutes, good to see some Finesse thrown in
If it was mine I’d have the blunt edges facing inwards, counter-intuitive for a choppin’ hand but it kinda looks like spaghetti fingers because of the way the blades curve. Wouldn’t lop a head but just kinda push it out and cut the edges of the neck
