For my painting challenge this month, I decided to do a Deffkopta. I’ve been a slacker about posting lately – part of it is because I let my domain expire, but now that is fixed, it’s back to business. Here is my progression so far:
Well, here it is, tabletop ready. There is more work to be done on it, but this will do for now!
Started painting my battlewagon – picking out all of the individual rivets is a pain! Started putting some details on part of it to break the tediousness!
