Hobby expenses:
$18.43 on 2x 1LB boxes of 5/16 metal washers.
$43.90 on 50mm x 50mm plastic bases and Jan/Feb issues of Wargames Illustrated (shipped for UK).
Total $62.33
5/16 metal washers are my go to for my 28mm metal figures. They give a nice heft and make the figures harder to knock over. They are about 25mm across. 5/16 is the interior hole size. My individual German infantry are now all based. I need a few larger bases for things like snipers, the machine gun and the anti tank gun.
I also need (sometime this year) 50mm square bases. So I placed an order from Northstar. I also added the two WI issues. February seems extra appealing as it has some RCW articles.
This week I started basing my 30 Oathmark Dwarf heavy infantry and 4 metal characters.
I cover the base in GW Stirland mud and then add static grass. I did the mud stage. I do a heavy-ish coat to hide the integral base of the miniature.
Then I’ll static grass the base and use the geek gaming scenics spray to lock it in.
I also put head on my 30 Oathmark orcs and built 10 of the 30 newly released Goblin slaves.
I have 30 more Oathmark Goblin infantry to build as well. That’s all for now. Hopefully I can find little bits of time to keep plugging away.
