From PeterA: AHPC XVI Wrap Up

AHPC XVI Production

I've finally got to posting up my AHPC XVI production, the main delay being I've kept painting stuff! After a pretty barren 2025 painting-wise, the Challenge really got me enthused and painting again, and that has kept being the case since the end of the Challenge, so a big, big thank you to Curt!

I started with some ECW Dragoons from Bloody Miniatures; I had hoped to get more done, but got sidetracked!

Then we have the start of the Irish War of Independence project - a mixture of Footsore Miniatures and Gripping Beast.

Next up was the Cartel project for Haywire - a mixture of 3d prints from Black Hills Games, Combat Octopus and Turnbase Miniatures, plus a couple of die cast toy Land Rovers.

Last of all in 28mm were some old Zombiecide minis for Haywire: Outbreak.

Then in 15mm there were some Modern NATO infantry (3d prints from WarDaddy Studios) and two Russian AFVs from Flames of War.

And to round it all off, 3 Dreadnaughts for The Horus Heresy  in 15mm-ish; these are all 3d prints.

So, a grand total of 110 miniatures:

92x 28mm figures

10x 15mm figures

3x 28mm vehicles

2x 15mm vehicles

3x 15mm Dreadnaughts

Which means the challenge for AHPC XVII has to be to paint at least 100x 28mm figures!

Once again a massive thank you to Curt, Sarah, Dave the Sunday Minion, and fellow participants for their companionship, encouragement and kind comments; AHPC XVI was a real joy thanks to you all.

All the best for the rest of 2026 - stay safe and well and I hope to see you again on Dec 20 2026 - only 257 more sleeps!
