Good Grief a whole week! I am slipping and big time! Yes the wargaming MOJO has gone Yes the painting Mojo has GONE.
Trying to get it back I have painted a few things. Here is an Alternative Armies 15mm Scout bike! not brilliant but as it had been waiting about 15-20 years a relief to get done. No I am still not happy with it but at least it is finished and can (for now) join the other 15mm sci fi figures. Yes I still have some to get done. (Several posts, most for the aliens but at least 1 for the French Foreign Legion (in space).The "lump" to the left is an old unused part of a robot, but it makes good scatter terrain if nothing else. And it was quick to paint and easy to finish.
Cold War update. Slowly getting my head around it. in 15mm I shall start on the Russian/soviet force first as that is what I have bought. Sent off for some more stuff as well from an unknown (to me ) company and I hope it will arrive in the week. Assuming it does, happy days and I can start>
Until next time take care good luck and I shall try to FORCE myself to paint as well.
All the best Clint
Nice work Clint, and only 20 years in the making!!! I bet it feels good to get it finished? The Mojo will return it always does, my worst was 9 months, and that was all Posties fault!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ray. Huuuummm Posties Fault you say I bet Fran did not make it easier. I plan to paint a little today, nothing major r important just dip my toe back in the water.
DeleteSlander I tell you......the reason it was Posties fault is that he paid Ray too much for painting his figures, greed was his mojo's downfall!
DeleteThank you Fran I was sure this would get a prompt reply from you. As for what really happened I doubt I will ever really know. BUT I do have my suspicions!
DeleteI always find going back to partially-painted projects and getting them finished helps bring my mojo back, Clint, so hopefully these nice little 'wins' will go some way towards doing just that for you.
ReplyDeleteThank you Blax. I plan (as mentioned above) to paint a little today Just some 6mm stuff. Nothing to taxing.
DeleteGreat work Clint, and good you've got it finished. Hope your mojo returns through whichever means you use
ReplyDeleteThank you Dave. As Ray points out Mojo has a habit of returning. I know the time gap was for a variety of reasons including running out of glue! (that has arrived now)
DeleteDespite being 15mm I really like those bikes. If I could bottle my mojo I'd send you some of mine. I feel like I have an excess of the stuff!
ReplyDeleteThank you Bryan. I am sure if it could be bottled you could sell it for a fortune. Ok maybe not a fortune but at least on eBay for a healthy profit!
DeleteUnrelated: If the cold-war company comes back and the products are Good I feel "The Iron Cow" will be one step closer!
Understand the MOJO loss. I go month in month out feeling the same, mainly due to real life and lack of funds to fuel my interests. Take it easy mate.
ReplyDeleteThank you Carl. I am sure I shall be back on the go soon if not quicker.
DeleteGood that you've managed to get something done and it really doesn;t matter what, if it gets your juices flowing once more.
ReplyDeleteThank you Joe. I am SLOWLY getting back into it.... very slowly!!
DeleteLooks good. I understand how hard it can be sometimes as well. Take it easy to some simple tasks. Basing, assembling etc it will come back.
ReplyDeleteThank you Simon. It has started to come back. I shall post agan tomorrow. (Thursday next week) as I have some exciting models arrive.
DeleteEveryone has a period of low mojo at one point or another, in different aspects of the hobby. My current low mojo relates to commenting on blogs! Lots of lurking but I can't think of a thing to say most of the time (anyone that know me that normally getting me to shut up is a challenge). The fightback starts here!!
ReplyDeleteThank you lee as insightful as ever. I fully understand the issue.

ReplyDeleteHi Everyone,This was how me and my Boyfriend became VAMPIRES. I got a guy from the internet called Lord who was a VAMPIRE so i told him that me and my boyfriend would love to become a VAMPIRES so he asked me of my Name ,Country, Age ,State , address and in the next 3 days i got the blood sample through the DHL which me and my boyfriend took in the blood into our body and in the next 30 minutes we turned into a VAMPIRE so if you are interested in becoming a VAMPIRE. First: Vampires is not at all like in the movies or books, Sure. I understand. You are young; you have the whole world open to you. You can be anything that you choose if you apply yourself and try hard to work toward that goal. But being a vampire is not what it seems like. It’s a life full of good, and amazing things. We are as human as you are.. It’s not what you are that counts, but how you choose to be. Do you want a life full of interesting things? Do you want to have power and influence over others? To be charming and desirable? To have wealth, health, and longevity? contact the vampires creed today via email: Richvampirekindom@gmail.com
