Worked on cleaning up some old metal WFB Empire. Started posting those units for sale with some photos in the Swap Shop.

Gots me 11 Havocs to build, a Tyrannofex to finish off, and I might get to spraying my craters today.

Working on Donna Troy and some cops. Gotta get them painted to play next week

I want to finish upgrading my Black Legion army and attempt to finish the army over all. I am giving myself the month of March, but I don't know if I will entirely finish.



I think the army is okay in a big picture of everything. However, looking closer at many of them reveals some models still need additional work. I also want to finally add some Chaos Predators and maybe the Noctilith Crown to pretty much complete the army until if and when another round of new CSM models come out. I want to at least get my all my Chaos Space Marines troops all painted up before I buy more stuff though.

Building the marine.side of dark Imperiums. Have 7 Interssesors, both lieutenant and the ancient done so far.

Posted up more photos for my old painted Empire WFB in the Swap Shop. Sealed my two Escher gangers for the Painting Competition.

Finished my havocs yesterday, my horde of PA CSM is finished. Should really make a picture now.

Something fun is about to happen...

Spent all day working on painting up the stack of Ryza Pattern ruins I have. I've made good progress, but there's loads left to do.

Finished the last of my OOP necron warriors for use in Grim Dark Future.

Need to take some photos for the Monthly Painting Challenge.

Catching up on painting some Hand of Glory accessories and might as well show off some KS stuff...

Hand of Glory KS starts 3/3. Miniatures feature "hot swappable" hands so you RPG characters can hold different objects. Yes, the cleric is holding two bottles. Get on their mailing list for a free mancatcher during the KS.

Loke Battlemats Town and Tavern KS is live. Above pic is the wizard's room from their previous KS, including a portal and trap door vinyl sticker. : kickstarter.com/projects/gamingbooks/towns-and-taverns-2-modular-books-of-battle-mats-for-roleplay

Tiny Furniture will have a KS early April. Miniatures are from TF's Magister's Workplace and Scribe's Workplace sets.

Setting aside 40k momentarily to build the classic Airfix 1/72 Spitfire - because I got to fly in a real one today as a birthday present from my wife!

Amazing experience - the pilot even let me have a little fly of it!

Also, it that painted terrain HBMC?!

It is painted terrain. You can see the entire table set up here.

Very nice! How’s the painting on the sector mechanicus coming along? It does paint up pretty well (and quick)

Uploaded the photos for the Monthly Painting Challenge, worked on some more terrain and a pair of old metal Cawdors.

Mathhammering Kill Team stats.

Continuing to work on this piece for Adepticon:



Probably going to base my Revenants tonight as well because I need to finish them for my 2k ACon list.

Love that model - wanted to get one for my Slaanesh army one day!

How was she to work with and assemble DV8?

Remarkably easy to assemble, with only a minor gap issue between some of the plates on the back part of the lower snaky bit (that technical terminology).

My issue with a lot of Creature Caster sculpts (particularly their old ones) is the roundness in some details, and the fact that they are notorious for mold lines and over-hangs. I was fairly fastidious in cleaning this piece having learned from my piece last year, but I'm still finding issues as I paint the piece, particularly with mold lines that only reveal themselves when you view from a specific angle because of how they hide themselves along the sculpt (they love these lines and drags, and so what I would think was a sculpted detail in say, a join, I realize as I paint that it's actually a mould line and i see the paint run over the texture of the thing.

Otherwise, i'm actually having a lot of fun painting her (probably much more so than my piece last year), partly because of the direction I'm going so far. Still a lot to do, but I'm hoping to make some solid strides with her over the next week or so once my mid-terms are over.

I have to say that (ignoring corrected pipes....) mould lines are something GW has generally been good with and are really very good with today! They are even getting really good with hiding seam and join lines in models too.

Though my worst is putting together Scourge models for Dropfleet/zone commander - for some unknown reason the designer loves to put LOADS of tiny ridges and dot details on the model RIGHT on the mould join spot. It's maddening because they are already fine detial and its half a case of either leaving the line and living with it or spending ages trying to carefully remove it without removing the detail at the same time.

Painted the small building form a used electrical gang box and some bits.

Continuing to paint 5 champions for my Trollbloods for Hordes.
