This past week and a bit I have been quite unwell with Covid-19. I first fell ill a week ago Sunday and it since developed into mild pneumonia.
It was a horrible cough and my fever was only slight and only for a very short period, but my lungs have taken a beating and I am now on antibiotics. The doctor said under normal circumstances that I would be admitted to hospital, but that’s the last place they want to send me right now.
So I am at home being looked after by Megan and Lindsay, the CPAP machine helps a lot and they moved a TV and Sky Q mini box into mine and Megan’s bedroom so that I can watch TV in bed, because sitting up is really hard.
I understand now why I am supposed to be shielded, and annoyingly because without testing me they can’t be sure it’s Covid-19, I still have to do the whole 12 weeks.
I really don’t want anyone I love getting this, it really did a number on Megan with her asthma, Lindsay was mostly better in a couple of days, but I dread to think what would happen if this ended up in Geoff or my nana.
Anyway guys, stay safe!
What I Am Modelling
I did get some painting done, specifically the Age of Sigmar and Warcry terrain.
I started with a few test pieces, specifically the bell tower and a few bits of small pieces from the Warcry core box.
Then I finished off the rest of the scatter terrain and two of the core box ruins.
Then I finished off the ruined city and the statues form the two other sets of terrain, as well as the first bit of the Stormvault terrain.
Then I finished the Defiled Ruins buildings and the columns for the Shattered Stormvault.
And finally I painted the two Stormvaults.
I have been slowly working my way through a few bits of Death Korps of Krieg for Niki and hope to have those finished tomorrow.
My current painting plan looks like this.
- Death Korps of Krieg Special Weapons Grenadiers x 4, Death Riders Ride Master, Quartermaster and Retinue
- Myrmourn Banshees x 12 & Tomb Banshee
- Blood Ravens Bikes x 3 and Attack Bike with Multi-Melta
- Death Korps of Krieg Command Squad Special Weapons Men x 10
- Chainrasp Horde x 40
- Blood Warriors x 5 & Mighty Lord of Khorne
- Canoness Veridyan
