Another year has indeed gone by for this blog! Right, it's been six years since I started this adventure. Wow.
This is a huge milestone for me, even if it doesn't look like one. I never had any serious expectations about blogging, it was just a way of showing my humble stuff and having it organised somewhere; but I never had plans or schedules. Well, if you look back to 2012 or 2013, you will see that many things have changed. I was usually able to update the blog twice a week, while now I hardly can make a post every week or two. Well, you know, life tends to do that and I have no regrets. With little Suberling Prime over the place (oh, and some news: Suberling Secundus incoming next year!), work, family, studies et al., hobby time has somehow decreased.
However, though slower, I'd like to think that I now paint slightly better and that some evolution can be noticed through the years. I also embark myself on silly stupid bolder projects, so I'm overall happy with the pace of the blog.
I hadn't seen the blog stats for a whole year, I'm just looking up for them right now, as I don't really make a big deal of that kind of numbers. Anyway, 566.369 hits looks satisfying to me (Come on, not all of them can be bots, can they? If you are a bot please do not respond), with USA, UK and Spain remaining the top three visitors once again.
What can I say, ladies and gentlemen (and bots. This blog tries to be totally discrimination-free). A huge thank you. Thank you for being there, just lurking if it's the case, hopefully smiling at my silly ideas here. Enormous thanks to all of you who regularly leave some comments. Seriously, pals, you make this much, much easier. Your constant support, encouragement, criticism and ideas are essential. YOU make this blog work.
Once I said that... yes, I know all the above is fine, blah, blah. But you people come over here to see some painted stuff!
This is it for today! But more stuff coming soon.
So well, Year Six is behind, Year Seven lies ahead. Let's go for it. Let's discover together what the brushes have for us!
Well done! It takes persistence. Oh, and I love those mushrooms!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Persistence is easy in this kind of endeavour :D
DeleteCongrats ! one of my favourite blog :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Much appreciated! :)
DeleteHappy blogday and those miniatures look amazing
ReplyDeleteThanks, they have been a real pleasure to paint :)
DeleteCongratulations on the 6th anniversary of your blog! It's always a pleasure to have a peruse of your projects!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I should make more recaps, I tend to get lost amidst my chaotic projects!
DeleteCongratulations on the blog and Secundus!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Barks! :D
DeleteCongrats and good job on the minis. I like the flora a lot!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Those plants are nice indeed. The freedom of painting them like alien flora has also been refreshing :)
DeleteNice models and congrats for both teh midlestone and Suberling secondus coming !!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, very much, JB! (And glups!!) :D
DeleteCongrats on the blog, Suber.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot!!! Really!!!
Thank you, man! I hope you enjoy the minis :)
DeleteThose look great, I love all the bright colors!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I think it's quite an important part of this project. The garish colours make them stand out; if I hadn't been told to paint them so, I would have probably tried earthy, natural colurs, but I have to say that this other approach is really much more appealing to me :)
DeleteCongrats on 6 years man! I really like that orange and black fellow.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I think that one's my favourite too. The pose and the whole sculpt tell a story, and I hope the colours make the mini justice
DeleteTe alabamos y admiramos, Suber. A por otros seis años!
ReplyDelete¡Muchas gracias! Muy lento, pero sigo cabalgando...
DeleteCongratulations, man!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I don't forget we still have plans to develop! I hope they can be seen just here along the year!
DeleteThey'll be. :)
DeleteCongratulations! Lovely work, especially your united colours!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thank you! Glad you like them :)

ReplyDeleteCongratulations – here's to the next six years, and next two Suberlings! :D
Haha, thanks!! Wow, let's take things slowly!! :D :D
Delete6 años y nunca me has puesto en el blogroll...en fin...felicidades, sin rencor...sin ninguuuuuun rencor
ReplyDelete¡Tu blog estuvo mucho tiempo, hasta que lo abandonaste! De vez en cuando me da por retocar el blog y hago limpia, jajaja
DeleteNo lo abandone, solo lo actualizo muy de cuando en cuando, como el gran Dave Taylor, que no actualiza desde...hace 8 meses...na menos XDDDD
DeleteCongrats Suber ... here's to many more sir :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'll keep on track!
DeleteCongratulations and cheers!
ReplyDeleteGreat work on these Twilight miniatures, they look most excellent.
Thank you very much! These minis were the last of that batch, so I have some sensation of closure... that will last until the next KS :D
