I don't think I could handle living that close to so many mini shops I'd always be broke

Although having a non GW store even remotely close would be nice. The nearest is...... um actually I don't know of any in my area.

Man I'm gonna have to make a MM pilgrimage some time. Seeing that dust tank makes me a bit sad I didn't pull the trigger on one, pretty meaty for under twenty bucks.

Which arm is penny missing? The one hanging down with the sword would be pretty easy to replace third party, I should think.

@girraffex, yep I have a plethora of stores around me and I'm usually broke. I'm tearing through some money I got recently, but it's going further than it normally does.
@grimdork, it is indeed the left arm with ccw. I've assembled her without it so far and will just keep my eyes peeled for a suitable replacement.

BOW is having another infinity week with videos of the new rules in action, I need to set aside time to watch. Hopefully not going to say "stupid Theo this game sucks" after I've preordered everything

If you can handle it being complicated, I'm pretty sure it won't suck I think the majority of what is going on is streamlining the previous rules and such.

I should watch the videos too but my daughter has dominion over the TV and I don't get a lot of time to sneak off to my computer, if I did... I'd be good at using my airbrush from all of the videos I coulda watched

I am at the last episode of season 4 of The Walking Dead.

Konigsluther is a nice sized beast!

That crazy walker is super awesome!

@grimdork, I'm glad my kids are old enough for me to go into the other room, I can't stand some of their shows, others I'll sit with them and watch. I'd be decent with an airbrush if I got off my and used mine.
@shaso, just finished season 4 , "the don't know who they're messing with" , just realized Netflix just uploaded so many more episodes for series I've been waiting on (arrow season 2 )
@WW, it's crazy awesome and was a great price to boot too.

Well no stop by MM on the way home today , but today's deal is half priced tie phantoms . Too bad I bought a second one a couple weeks back. Oh well, I can't see me ever fielding more than two at a time, even then I could proxie. It'd have to be an epic game due to their costs.

I got an email from Corvus Beli, they are sending the replacement arm for Achiles soon, I responded back to them to see if I could get a replacement arm for penny as well, fingers crossed. They have an amazing service for replacements, but you must email them with a picture of the packaging and the little slips of paper that come in the boxes as well. They come with a blue slip and a white slip, ones for the arms and accessories, the other is the main body. I guess they are the number connected to the packers so they know who is doing good and who needs a job with GW. Hopefully they will send the arm for penny, but I didn't have the packing codes for it and their site is pretty specific that they require it. Never hurts to ask.

Well off to work, talk at you guys later.

Edit: here's what got primed yesterday(on sedition wars boxes), it's a lot as those boxes are like 16x16"

There's more close up shots in the gallery if you click on the picture, I'm on my phone right now about to start at work.(read as lazy)

Arrow, the Following, Supernatural.......Appaently for the kids Young Indiana Jones.

All of those lovely doors

Watching Arrow season 2, it's... more of the same? There's a lot of dudes working out w/o shirts and talking about feelings, but it's still *technically* sort of about a superhero (kind of) so I'm soldiering on. I should catch up on the walking dead. It got a little soap operaish to me, but if you're gonna watch a soap, at least this one has zombies! Still need to watch season 8 of supernatural. Lot of shows rolled over on the netflix in the last 2-3 months.

Arrow is intro-ing new heroes, and some baddies as well.

Damn. Nice series of hauls there, Theo!

All those doors and no-one has a knock knock joke?

With all those doors I miigt be tempted to do a space hulk board.

Those doors would be great with some kind of space corridors.......

Hey guys, been too busy to do anything lately. Wife is at a conference tonight, will be back tomorrow, kids and I cleaned the garage out and they don't know but we're about to go get ice cream as a treat.

Speaking of a treat, operation icestorm showed up miniaturemarket, so I picked up a copy and canceled my preorder from thewarstore.

Took a while to prime all the figs earlier, and actually threw some paint. Man these models are detailed.

Good to see you around. Hope you are busy in a god way, we miss you.

Model looks brilliant, seriously thinking I need to get this set to take me away from the single track road I am on.

Busy in a God way , yes, busy at church .....and at the hospital. Got an award at the hospital in front of all the directors and " important" people. I stopped a couple guys from stealing equipment a few months ago, called security and the house supervisor, in essence I did the right thing. Got a printed award with my name misspelled , always great to be recognized incorrectly.

As far as your single track roads, they are always great displays .

I like the Mobile Brigada. Everyone painting their Op:I lately makes me feel bad since I've had it for months at this point

I like the red, almost candy like a car finish.

Yesh, that's really nice. Corvus belli sculpts go from strength to strength.

Here's the reverend healer along with the brigada.

I need some finer brushes to get some of the details crisper. Not sure what to do on the skirt/dress yet design wise. Lots to touch up. I'm so used to painting space marines using a 3" brush , haven't used a detail brush in so long.

Still looking solid, I like the colors.

No worries Theo, the brush work will come to you. Infinity minis looking good there!

Nice work, Theo. They are looking good in that scheme.

Thanks guys , had a half hour this morning before everyone got up, so grabbed another figure I've been wanting to try stuff on. This is one of the alguicide(spelling is something in this game I'll have to get accustomed to), and they have him with dark skin and corn rows. Figured I might try it out. Totally in the beginning phases on him, and did a little different on the legs than what the picture has of him. They have all red legs, but the model has a split in the fabric that was screaming for a halved color scheme. So I went red and black. Thinking of reserving the white for special figures or very limited spot colors.

Yeah the red/black is working well for your models, a little white here and there will probably look good too. I wonder if I'll do a dark skintone for my copy of that model or not. I guess we'll see once it's primed later on

Looking good. Very good to see youi in the saddle so to speak.

The colour scheme is nice.

And finally IT IS ALL YOUR FAULT!!

Just ordered Operation Icestorm, totally your fault, all these people banging on and all these great models, and then you go and do it, and I have to have it now. Thats me in trouble and everything. Oh well, so watching very closely, cus I have this coming my way.

Hahaha it's like a disease that's airborne at this point!

From the title I was expecting x-wing but instead pleasantly surprised with more Icestorm pics

Looking good! I like the halved idea on the pants.

Quick update, al is almost done

Looking pretty sharp! Kind of makes me wanna paint my own Corregidor stuff red it's so pretty.

I thought about painting him Caucasian as one of the guys who managed a local flgs had the same beard and dreadlocks, but I wanted to try the dark skin tones more. Spectre is on the workbench right now and has most of the base colors laid out. I messed up though and started with my red highlight color instead of my base color , it took me a few minutes to realize why everything looked off. Not looking to do any wild camo effects on him right now. But he is wearing a lot more black than red, and has more of the electric blue on him as well. We'll see how he turns out either way.

Infinity is an infectious looking game. I tired of the grimdarkness a while back and tried building cleaner looking models, and infinity fills that easily. No huge vehicles either , reminds me of the good old days of 40k as I started back in 2nd edition and you never saw tanks, planes or other warmachines.

Corregidor looks like the direction I'm leaning for my army as well. I haven't even looked at the rules, but I liked their more human styled models than other factions models. Pan-O looks a close second, but the Islamic faction looks nice as well. That's going to be the big problem in limiting myself to one army .
