@Vik I don't believe those minis are for any specific game, no....I think they just exist as art and painting challenges Vik.

@angel - only about 5 seasons going on 6 This has a 3-7 player Westeros map, but also a 2 player Essos map.

@Shas- yes, yes they are!!

Liking the look of "fix it" Sam. Certainly preferable to a techmarine in many ways.

And I like Sarah's bike, amongst other things.

Nice haul, Dave. Some of us would still consider that "quantity" as well as "quality".

Ooooh 'Sarah' I could really get to use my 'keep your brush moist' catch cry with that model.

Yeah she is a nice model indeed

Oh look Scale have a number of interesting ladies in their summer offers that come with a paint set as well.

Dave, we miss you.....

Hey Dave, been looking through your archive here and noticed you may live somewhere near the Indianapolis area? Sent you a PM

What's happening fellas? Still working on the new workshop in the new house. Standby! I miss you too.

Coming to Dakka soon, "Return of the Dave!"
Stoked!

Return of the Living Dave

Hopefully followed by Night of the living Dave and the much anticipated day of the Dave, I'll skip Shaun of the Dave though.

Hey, nothing wrong with Shaun of the Dave. Its got icecream.

Good to see you still kicking, patiently waiting for one day, one day Dave will be back and show us how it's meant to be done.

Is this the return of the once great leader or just a flash in the pan stay tuned for next week ..... Or the week after maybe a month or two



Well just wait and see ............

Whelp- I had some brief health issues, ad to have my GallBladder removed. I just paid that $3000 bill off today, so the next step will be to get proper lighting installed in the basement. I have so many ideas and things I want to do.

What a strange chain of events to link together. Remove Gallbladder>Pay hospital bill>Lights? I feel like there had to be a step missing in there.

Hope you are feeling better. Iirc, recovery time wasn't to bad when my Dad had that done like 6 years ago.

Best wishes sir, hope you are feeling much recovered, and agree there is definitely a link missing in there.

Besides you don't need a Gallbladder to paint!

so....was fearing you´d never return..well...one of your main sayings was patience... you sure tested that one to the peak...

i hope you feel better soon to stand the stormy weather here at dakka

and best wishes to your lady geek and beans^^

Excellent to hear you're doing alright, Dave

Good to see signs of life. Hope the gallbladder wasn't as painful as the bill... Ouch.

Look forward to your glorious return.

$3000 with insurance?

Lucky got fleeced x5 more than that for the same problem

Ouch, wife had hers out emergency style just after we got married (like two weeks after the honeymoon ), through sickness and health and all that jive.

Can't wait to see the mad plans you have dreamed up while under Anastetia

$3k to have your gall bladder out... ouch. Not sure which hurt more!

I think you guys are missing the point here he needs lighting to paint ............... Definetly missed something in the chain of events there Dave LOL

Plus we need a Beans update

Glad you are feeling better Dave!

Hail to the King!

Thanks guys, appreciate it. No, I have a really good insurance plan, the $3k w a s my max out of pocket for the year, the surgery actually cost 15k. This is why almost 650k Americans go bankrupt every year for medical bills. And why we need changes made. I am recovered, still have occasional stomach issues, but thankfully I can eat whatever I want again. The missing step was where I had to maintain a fat free diet for almost 2 months.

Yeah medical bills are stupid, my mms hospital bills were over $1M, luckily her out of pocket would have been maxed at about $3,500, but she had already reached that part before everything happened. A lot of time the insurance payments are scams themselves. Every time we get our kids a prescription I ask what the non-insured price is and sometimes it's less, so ask them to not run it through insurance.

Glad your back, and your Stomach is better, now I'm reminded of your roasts.....mmmmmmmmmm hungry.

Very glad your recovering. Good to see your typing again.

What's up Fellas? I'm still here. Time flies when you're getting old. Still no movement on the workshop area, home ownership keeps me busy, but Just for fun, I did a google image search for Necromunda terrain and was surprised by how many pictures of MINE were listed in the results!! And the hits were from other blogs and sites. ...I WAS prolific wasn't I?

Yes, now stop teasing and get building

Prolific AND inspirational.

Awaiting the return, y'know, when you're ready an' all.

Pardon the absence!
The next project will be a 1:1 Model of Dave's Workshop. It'll be one of a kind, unique model. That means there is no right or wrong!
But, don't get too excited yet, there is a long way to go. Before we can get into making styrene Rivets (you have ALL been making rivets in my absence I hope?) We have to salvage This:

Typical of second-hand Warhammer salvage purchases, it's covered with a poor paintjob. (Bean shown for scale )


I was able to set up a temporary field headquarters


And Supply dump



With plenty of functional cabinet space for tools, kits, etc.



Meanwhile, the now World-Famous Terrain have their own permanent shelving in the separate Storage area. That's where all the styrene stockpile will remain for now.

But first...I have to get married!
