Currently assembling my two boxes of Allarus Termi, this will complete my Custodes army and bring it to about 2k total! Once done I'll move to painting them, completing a goal of mine, having a fully painted army!
|
Fantasy armies - Retired (Tomb Kings, Vampires, Empire, Chaos Warriors/Daemons, Dark Elves)
Tyranids army - Ever evolving, but about 10k pts
Custodes - 3,500pts (Fully painted yay!)
Thousand Sons - 4,000 pts
Eldar - 3,000pts |

* Getting a base coat of Seriphim Sepia & then some minor details onto those Altlantic Wargames Irish I built (& then rebuilt).
Being mostly NPCs for a D&D game they don't need a complete paint job right now. Just enough to tell two distinct groups apart.
* Then it's on to building both a Mid & Late war list for Flames of War (I'm thinking Russian Churchills)....
* And I'll finish off the evening by reading the new Lumineth Tome (lore only).

Locked in the Tower of Amareo

Went for 1k tournament with my sisters. Got my ass kicked by tsons though with bit better rolling or not spending 1 CP too much 1st turn could have done better. Then got my ass totally kicked by salamander gunline in scenario that was always going to be tough for my scenario. Finally crushed extremely casual ork army.
Triumph was fun. First game nearly was hero going girl to knight duel bringing(okay so it had taken 13 wounds previously...) it down to 3 wounds. By averages I should have survived 2 combat phases then but he was rolling 5+ to hit like a champion and I whiffed 4++'s like a wimp
2nd game went on another duel vs invictor warsuit and on 3rd game nearly entire ork army(flashgit, weirdboy, gunwagon, 1 turn scrapjet) tried to bring her down but failed which pretty much won me the game.
Also picked up best painted award which was first time ever for me! Albeit only 6 players and level of competition wasn't THAT big but at least every army was painted(tournament requirement).

Discretion truly was the better part of valor today. I realized that after reassembly and touch-ups it would just be easier to start over on a metal mini that had gotten dropped and badly chipped.
So holes were drilled to assemble it properly this time around and it was cast into the acetone to prepare it for rebirth.

Spot of easy mode painting doing the fancy plastic x-wing dials, but given the druids have conjured up some bobbins weather to keep the beaches clear I used the super stinky primer in the garage and things are now a tad fuzzy

Building my Lumineth box sets!
I had bought myself one and my brother had ordered me one as an early birthday present, thinking I might not be able to get one myself on the day of...so now I have the makings of an Auralan Legion(I'll have to wait for the Sentinels and Cathallar to finish it) and a barebones Dawnrider Lance.

Finished and posted my Sister's of Battle Rhino for the Monthly Painting Challenge - this month's theme "In a Supporting Roll".
Made from a regular Rhino chassis, with some magnets and some Sisters of Battle extras with some old Bretonnian transfers thrown in.
The long painting war continues...

Assembled a Land Speeder and everything went wrong. I mean everything. It looks like the whole contraption is held together with duct tape only I haven't modeled duct tape on it yet. Think I'll take it to the tourney and then Orkify it after.
Painting Chaos as a relaxing technique while I avoid painting more marines

After a...5 or so year hiatus from painting minis of any kind. I got a Wolfy Dreadnaught for Fathers Day so finally, today I got got Bjorn undercoated.
Also got 5 2nd ed generic assault and Blood Angels dudes painted up as Skyclaws.
The Rout is slowly being assembled again.

After finishing a box of Azyrite Ruins I have another box to assemble and paint. But I'm taking a break and going to work on a Slaughterpriest that's been sitting on my desk for awhile now.

Sorted models only to find an older chaos paint scheme I like more than the current one. Tempted to switch back.
In the meantime, more Chaos space marines.Lots of small details on that armor

Started the obelisk that I've had for a while. It's a very uninspiring model that I hope to get done in a couple of days. So far, I have most of it base coated. I'm going to let washes, necron compound and typhus corrosion do the heavy lifting on this one.

So, quick rant.
I've been working on Light of Eltharion since Monday. I've even been painting. Tonight, I was doing detail work on the helm...and sneezed.
You know those sneezes where you get lift off from your seat? Yeah. One of those kinds of sneezes.
I did what it took Arkhan bloodmagic to do in a simple sneeze. Ended a hero of the Asuryan.

Ouch, that's always rough. Hopefully it's fixable.

Sadly, it's not.
That model is an amazingly complex puzzle for all intents and purposes...but it is not easy to repair.

I saw it in person at my local GW a few days ago. My first thought was "amazing miniature". My second was "some of those contact points look very weak and easy to break". So Kan, which bit of him did you damage?
Hobbywise today I am painting up some Gauss Immortals and have an eye on starting work on my Doomsday Arc as well.
