Five drones down, four to go..

Also started painting my FOR and aegis line..

And gluing epidemius' sodding mushroom on again. There is a toadstool on his base that refuses to stay put.

Painting more WoW Board Game miniatures... I can't wait to be done with them, tired of the crappy things

Playing Flames of War tonight, first game in... months.

Working on a couple of Sisters-of-Battle-to-CSM-Raptors conversions, assembling and priming my Death Shroud Temies, doing some clear-coating on models finished earlier in the week and maybe finish assembling my Sabre platforms...

It's gonna be a busy day!

Tonight I have every intention of painting up 6 escorts for my Empire of the Blazing Sun Fleet (Dystopian Wars). My wife is out of town, so there is a good chance I will actually be able to get this done.

Nothing lately, sadly. Just moved into a new house last weekend. Will be unpacking for another month or so. 40k and other gaming stuff is low priority.

Soon, though. By early November, I should have my hobby area set up.

Finish the last two models to make my 4-a-week goal.
Write up a 1k point list to ally with Tau and take on the forces of Chaos tomorrow.
Pack said force.

Built and primed a unit of devastators, along with my second company captain, and a bunch of backpacks/guns/dread arms/jump packs.

I'm going to my gaming club to sell ma skaven.

a battle every sunday and painting 10 40K tac marines

Indeed!!

Assembling more Fire Warriors...

I am working on... something...

Probably throw some magnets at some sentinels and see what happens. I am trying to avoid painting right now. And it rained so that ruined getting some sand from outside to base.

Getting my last 5 zombies onto nails, then undercoating them. Maybe laying down the base coat later after they stop stinking. Sorting through my jumbled marine collection as my mind whirs at the various options presented in my shiny new codex.

Maybe taking a trip to the pet store for some terrain and basing supplies

Downloaded and installed the Magic Set Editor, and made some Combat Tactic reminder cards. Real easy to use. While I was at it, printed out some cards for the SM warlord traits I had downloaded earlier and sleeved them all. Right now they are B&W on plain paper, but I might re-jigger the page size and run them through my color printer on 4x6 photo paper.

Got my army packed and ready, game is at 3. Will stop by the grocery store and pick up a 6-pack of beer and some chips to share.

I've got about an hour to kill before I head out, spending it here on Dakka.

Finished my 'Special Forces' SWS, soon to dump some OOP metal Grey Knights in Simple Green, then on to maybe do some priming of the Death Shrouds.

This is an excellent idea. I may be forced to do the same for my game this evening. I spent this morning tweaking my Footwolves list for tonight, now there are 100% more lascannons. And more terminators.

Going through the great dilemma of what the hell to equip my new 10 man tactical squad with. I can never decide from the huge list of combinations. This is why I never buy sternguard squads. Sheesh.... *pulls hair out*

Magnetize them and have all the options all the time!

It's easier than it sounds, and fun too!

^magnets ftw. Although... its a lot more work.

Working may way trougth the first of some sixty Bretonnian knigths, Noting beats the smel of a newly opend package of plastic crack to feed my addiction

I suppose I need to find out how to magnetize. That would be so neat to swap them before the tournament in January.

If you make a cheater tool from a couple extra magnets and a piece of tubing it gets super easy and almost impossible to screw up. I am magnetizing my BT marines.

I apologize for my persistence, but all that popped into my head was an arm, glue a magnet, magnet, glue, body, and it all looks terrible in my head.

I suppose I'm imploring you guys for a "how to" or an example or something.

Painting:
This lady


The final one of these guys

Some PSC 15mm German Grenadierkompanie, and a PzJaeger IV (one of the fixed turret things)

(and yes all at once, this is why I never finish anything! )

Took my Daemons to tournament

Did ok, got joint best-painted

Still got four fething Plague drones to finish, but then that army is 100% painted

building a converted GUO/daemon prince out of the mutalith vorthex beast + zombie dragon kits.

earlier i did the last apoxiesculpt details for the spine on my converted/counts as khorne lord on juggernaut out of the kits for the skullcannon, mounted warriors of chaos, and possessed CSM kits. it's pretty much ready for final assembly, then on to basing and painting. i still need to do a combination power fist/lightening claw and convert a good axe up for a axe of blind fury, but the arm is magnetized and the sword it comes with will make an adequate counts-as for now.

more wow miniatures... /wrist

I hope to finish at least 2 more today... or all 3 if I manage to enter painting nirvana so I'm done with them
