2013: Production Report

[ChaosCossack]

Thanx guys... too kind.
If scratch sculpts count as double then that puts Colin Sr (crf) well into double digits with 4, that's right 4, scratch sculpted busts (one with 2 heads grrr-ruff)
Looks to me like everyone has had a good year... Some beautiful work shown here by all

Come on lets see some more!

Here's my efforts for 2013, I've had a more productive year than I've had in many years....well completed figures anyway.
So many figures, So little time!!
I've found them all to be very satisfying and enjoyable. And I'm very happy to say I still feel motivated to continue with many more new and partially finished figures into 2014.
I'm doing more 2d canvas painting as well these days and some figures next year will alternate between other projects.

A superb body of work Mark. Highly creative and original and with your trade mark sense of humour.

Hasn't been an overwhelming year production-wise for me... but there were some firsts:
Namely, my first bust and my first scratch sculpt (Lemmy) and second sculpt (Jeff Hanneman) and my first multi figure WWII dio (Dieppe).

Lemmy and the Roman/Germanic vignette (sorry I don't have a pic of the completed piece with the shields) recieved bronzes at IPMS Ajax and I got an overall bronze at the Ontario Model Soldier Society show at Fort York. There are a couple of WIP figs and the beginnings of a large, scratchbuilt/conversion diorama that won't be finished before year's end.

Cheers

Colin

[Mark S]

Thanks Colin, so glad you like those pieces...cheers mate.

Mark- Great stuff!!! Love the swinging Johnny Reb... That's gotta be one of the best original ideas I've ever seen.

swralph- Great idea... how about Joey in the warbonnet and Scott Ian, full on mosh... elbows out-knees up-stomp stomp stomp!!

 

[MalcC]

Sadly I only managed two this year

 

[gothicgeek]

I love these threads at the end of the year!
So much lovely work!
Very impressive!



I have been a bit worried that my productivity has dropped off a bit this year, work and life getting in the way and such.
I was surprised how much I actually got done
Apologies for the box art shots, they are just much easier to find than the date stamped originals .... :/

In no order at all

Here it is myNew Year's resolution to increase production:

Hi MalcC, thanks for posting your pics. Just remember mate its quality not quantity in this game, and those are two high quality figures you've done there. Having set the standard for yourself this year, the challenge for 2014 is to raise the bar again.

 

[tonydawe]

Hi Mark,

What an amazing body of work for one year. Consistently brilliant painting mate. Your painting style is instantly recognisable and has come to define the look and feel of the Stormtroopers range of figures. Great work mate. Can't wait to see what you do next year.

 

[ChaosCossack]

I'm sorry, 23 is a drop in productivity? Are you KIDDING?

Malc, Tony is right... Those are 2 great figures.

 

[montythefirst]

cheers guys

[Stephan]

Thats a funny thread, normally I do one or two figures a year, this year where very bussy for me.

 

[Colin_Fraser]

Stephan - what uniform is it on that first one? My like was focused on that particular piece.

Colin

 

[tonydawe]

Looks like an exceptionally productive year for you Stephan. A great range of subjects and consistent quality throughout. Well done and thanks for sharing your pics.

 

[tonydawe]

Good work Monty. Your most recent piece is definitely your best, which suggests you've improved throughout the year.
