Another tank rolls in

This post isn't actually part of the Slow Grow that the group of us are currently undertaking (with varying degrees of success). Instead, this month my target felt quite under control, and I decided I could pull something extra onto the painting table.

I am getting to the point in the Slow Grow where I'm assessing my overall plans, and I feel like I'm about half way to what I'd like to complete before it's over. But Noakes then convinced me that Nuln should really have a Steam Tank, and that it should be one of those silly variants with more exotic weaponry (the sort that had rules in 6th edition, and hasn't been seen since)...

The tank wasn't part of my vision of being half-way to my overall objective, so I instead squeezed it in as a bonus for the month.

A 3D printed Steam Tank from Duncan Shadow. I happened to have these files already on hand, so it was hard to say "no" to Noakes' "helpful suggestions" (I had 2 Steam Tanks already sitting around, undercoated and ready to paint, but the demand that I do a particular variant meant that they got bypassed for a new print).

July Slow Grow

July is over, and so another month of the slow grow has passed. It's been a relatively quiet month from our participants. Some are making progress, but some are stuck, busy or distracted. Well, I'm sure at least some of us will get there in the end (wherever "there" is)...

I have completed another War Wagon. This is a Magori miniature, pulled by Reptilian Overlords horses.
