Colette's Crew - Update
Some progress with Colette's crew. The top picture are the final mechanical dove, Cassandra, and performer. I touched up the metallics with some gloss to give them their shine back. Colette's Avatars have been primed and the beckoners that I'm going to use as performers have been assembled and primed.

The Rest of My Malifaux Gencon Acquisitions
The final pieces of my Gencon Acquisitions. These are two orders, so there are two more Miss Terious and two of the tape measures. I haven't dug into the new book yet. I plan to use the beckoners as performers for Colette.

A bit of work for Colette. First her avatars (finally!). They were relatively easy to put together. Now just to paint them.... The other shot is the nearly finished minis that have been hit with dullcote. Now just to add a bit of gloss on the metals.

GenCon Acquisitions - Pt 1
The first of my GenCon Acquisitions from Wyrd. They also sent me a small keychain tape measure, which didn't make it into the picture this round as my wife claimed it as soon as she saw it! Two more packages to come, though.

Liquid Gold? Not quite, but nearly....
Something else that is hard for me to get a hold of. It is not sold locally and can't be shipped via air because it's compressed. There's nothing quite like Dullcote though. Many thanks to a friendly coworker that had a couple of spare cans for me.
Some Hard To Get Paints...
These are surprisingly hard to get a hold of and are rather expensive. Unlike the typical acrylic paints, these are alcohol based with actual metal flakes in them. They go on incredibly smoothly and look great, but they're also very hard to work with. Any water contact with them will cause them to tarnish, including the entire bottle if you make a mistake!

Birthday Presents From A While Back
I've been behind a bit. These were birthday presents from my parents, supplies for my works in progress. I'm looking forward to experimenting with the pigments, which I've never used before.
