Well it’s been a couple busy weeks. Sorry for the delay but it’s now June … and my self imposed deadlines loom.
I’ve made good progress on the old bathtub project. I’m down to a few gloss coats and I’ll be done with it. It took ages each afternoon to strip the old layers of paint.
I spent last weekend getting a good few layers of etching primer on – and after another couple days dry time I started laying down the color my wife had picked.
While I worked on the tub my brother got the old claw feet sand blasted. I’ll be giving them a good few layers of clear coating. And then I’ll piece the tub back together.
On the real hobby table I got more done as well …
Intermixed over the last couple weeks I’ve found time to work on my mini-mansion. This kit has been a joy to put together. So much so – I had a hard time stopping work on it each day I had time to work on it.
I got all the elements put together – all dry fit nice and tight. I only had minimal clean up to do. This will be a perfect addition to my options for Infinity as well as Dark-Age and even 40k.
After finishing all the main parts I went back and started painting each part needed for each component. Here is the main big building with the paint scheme I’ve decided to use. For now I just sprayed on the main colors.
I’ll detail it out later – someday lol. Anyhow, I plan to paint up the rest of the elements when I get a chance. But here are some additional shots of the components of this kit.
I can’t say enough about how great this kit is. Very nicely packed with instructions at each component layer.
Ok, well there are still lots that I need to get done before mid-month. Back to work.

Wicked cool, thanks guys!
I’m super jealous about that cashtak kit, their mega-mansion bundle is high on my wish list of mdf terrain I’d happily buy.
