A few random (or… not-so-random, really) items rolling off the workbench…

I got some painting done yesterday while I was sitting around ALL FREAKING DAY waiting for a delivery that was supposed to arrive some time between 8am and 8pm (Spoilers: IT DIDN’T!). Now, I’m normally a pretty patient dude… and I get that it’s a weird time… and… y’know… life happens…  but EVERYONE ELSE these days seems to be able to provide pinpoint accuracy in their tracking (i.e. what city your stuff is in – or between – at any given moment). This is stuff we ordered in April. It DID say 6 weeks… and… fair enough… times were weird. Charged our credit card and we waited. And a week ago we received an email saying our order was finally being processed. Then a day later an email saying it was being picked. Then a day later one saying it was on a truck and on it’s way – expect it to be here Monday, 1 June 2020, 0800-2000… that’s a pretty wide margin – compared to other delivery places… but, whatevs… it’s not like there’s anywhere I NEED to be – Oh, I do need to get out and get groceries… and it’d be nice to get out and go for a bike ride to get some air and exercise or whatever… but that could wait until Tuesday. I checked the tracking everyday – in case it changed to „out for delivery“. I checked again Monday morning to see if anything changed…. and suddenly the tracking system wasn’t working at all… Ah well. I’m patient… and I waited. Around midday the tracking system still wasn’t up – but it said in the email, if there was any problems, phone or email or chat… except the phone line isn’t working… They’re no receiving emails… and the chat function isn’t available…

So… what now… Do I just sit in my house and hope for the best and maybe it will show up today? Or Tomorrow? Or… MAYBE SOMETIME this week!? I mean, I get things are sometimes late, but seriously – would it kill you to send someone an email update saying „Whoopsie, sorry about that it will FOR SURES be there on Thursday…“ or… whenever…

Sorry, I’ll stop now…

So… back to the toys I painted yesterday WHILE WAITING AROUND FOR NOTHING!?

(Seriously…. I’m sorry… I’ll FOR SURE stop now…)

Emperor’s Children Raptors.

Not sure what prompted grabbing these… but I did… I thought I’d just knock ONE off quickly to see if my planned scheme looked okay… but then it kind of turned into two… and now the other three are almost done as well… expect them shortly…

Random Hive Ganger… or… y’know, she looks fancy (and clean), maybe she’s some spoiled Spire brat  „slumming it“ with the downhivers. The miniature is actually from I-Kore’s old Void miniatures (I think) – with a GW Necromunda base…

The VERY LAST of the Space Hulk miniatures… It probably didn’t really NEED a base.. but without it, it falls over all the time and would be more likely to get lost. So I added a base.

I finished off a few other things, but that’s all one big group with a bunch of fluff… so it’s going in it’s own post…
