Slightly belated as I was hit, once again, by man flu over the last two days.

John Carter of Mars - Hinchliffe Models - Part 3 - Most of the range done.
Belated Merry Xmas to everyone... my chest bug has kept me busy coughing and spluttering throughout the holiday season and shows no sign of abating (such is the life of the ex smoker asthmatic). I did, at least, 'design' a Christmas card on the Midjourney AI app but wasn't up to getting it out there so it's posted below... Happy New Year in advance and I will try better next year!
Onto the miniatures! The final 2 are SF4 Red Martian Maiden with pistol and SF9 Green Martian Warrior... both basic paint jobs as with the rest of the range (or my excuse for poor painting!). I'm only missing SF6 White Martian Chief as I gave my copy to Mike at Broadsword Miniatures for the upcoming remolding. He was missing his sword which hopefully will be taken care of once the project gets full steam ahead. If anyone has a spare then please let me know so I can finish the range. I do need to paint another SF5 Black Martian, radium rifle as a Black Martian - the one I've finished I did as a Red Martian for some reason.
SF4 Red Martian Maiden with pistol (same sculpting dolly as SF11 Red Martian Princess)
I think I'll go back to my older style of painting...
SF9 Green Martian Warrior
Size comparison between the two...
The White Ape, Martian Lion and Treeman in all their ferocious splendour!
The Green Martian Horde!
All the humanoid Martian types...
The full range barring the aforementioned SF6 and the unreleased SF15 Martian Dog...
There are quite a few John Carter articles on the blog if you're interested;

I've be remiss in posting this due to a very bad back... better now but still waiting for it to go again. Courtesy of the wonderful Tony Yates.
I hope everyone had a good time and got lots of lead... we had a no present festive day for the first time, just got together for a lovely meal which was great.

A Merry Nogmass One & All..............
Well, it's almost that time again so here's wishing you all a wonderfully festive Noggin the Nogmas and a Happy New Year! This will be my first Xmas without my mum so it will be strange not to be travelling to her house on the day for a traditional Christmas dinner with the children.
The Noggin Kickstarter will be getting fulfilled early January now due to her recent passing. Hopefully the New Year will see more projects as well with Noggin, the Tenoch, Politicos and a couple of secret ones in the works......
A picture taken by my brother towards the end of October.....a couple of days later she had no memory of going out.......she deteriorated so quickly during November it was a real shock to us all. I will miss her forever. Love you my mummy.

Merry Christmas one and all!
Tis' the season to be jolly and all things etc. Hope 2017 is a better year than this one with its various problems from countless celebrities dying to terrorism around the globe. Drink tea and paint lead, a far better approach to things.
A wonderful post from Realm of Chaos a couple of years back regarding things Citadel and Xmas;
