Mantic 2021 Hobby Resolutions – Part Two
6th Jan 2021
Martin Thirlwell
Hi everyone, Martin here. Some of us at Mantic HQ are putting together our hobby resolutions for 2021 and mine has distinctly dwarven aroma... [EDITOR - I dread to think what a dwarven aroma is. Stale beer and beard conditioner, perhaps?]
Pledge 1 - Warpath Universe
I really, really, REALLY want to build and paint up some vehicles this year. I was a bit undecided between going the Enforcer route, so I could paint up the Interceptors, but as you may have seen, Rob has already started his Enforcers... great job so far Rob!
So to make sure we had variety in the blogs I will go for the Forge Fathers... because, well, TANKS!! I'm not sure what colour scheme and theme I will go for just yet though. But I'm in a bit of a grimy phase at the moment so maybe something along those lines.
I had started a Forge Father strike team for Deadzone. I'm not sure I'll keep with these gold and purple colours though.
Pledge 2 - Armada
To continue with the dwarfiness, my second pledge is to paint up the Dwarf fleet for Armada. I'm not saying Ronnie and I will have a painting competition with these models, but I'm not saying we won't either.
I've just seen the first resins coming off the production line for this fleet and they do look superb. Should be a fun little project to do. I went pretty far out with my Nightstalker themed Basilean fleet, but I'm not sure what to do with these just yet...
*Please note all Hobby pledges are subject to change due to my wandering eye and poor attention span :)
Stay safe! Cheers, Martin.
