Subject: M.K's Mega-Blog! - Even more Tomb Guard Progress! - Now with more even more TG progress!
Hey, all!
I am a very slow painter, who gets distracted very easily and who often also starts planning his next project half way through his current one which means that I gets demotivated quite quickly from any current projects.
I try to stay on track, but that isn't a guarantee that I will...
HOWEVER, that is where this blog/thread comes in! One of its many purposes is to help motivate me. While there have been times I haven't been motivated (around the last quarter of 2013) this blog (and the Dakka community, of course) have done a good job at keeping me motivated, hopefully in 2014 this continues!
My current project is a Tomb Kings army. I've always liked Ancient Egypt, and Warhammer Fantasy Battles however, 40k was enough already. With 40k becoming crazier every update (that being the main reason for me becoming demotivated in 2013...) I decided to finally start a Tomb Kings army!
So, what's my plan for 2014? Well in addition to my Tomb Kings, I would like to do some more work on my sad slaanesh daemons, especially my Keeper of Secrets (whose head is still incomplete modelling-wise, and the rest is PIP).
Projects:
With my Tomb Kings, I'm going to make it my goal to do the following in 2014:
-> Finish M/P/B all 22 of my Tomb Guard -- 21 PIP
-> Finish M/P/B AT LEAST 25 Skeleton Warriors with Sword and Shield (Hopefully all 40+ of them) -- 30 fully assembled
-> Finish M/P/B AT LEAST 15 Skeleton Archers (Hopefully all 30+ of them) -- 9 fully assembled, 1 PIP
-> Finish M/P/B my 5 Characters for my Tomb Kings (Arkhan the Black, Grand Heirophant Khatep, Tomb Prince, Necrotect & Liche Priest) -- All 5 fully assembled
-> Finish M/P/B my Casket of Souls -- Casket + Keeper Assembled, Guard MIP
Progress:
Spoiler:
Tomb Guard:
Characters:
(---> Arkhan the Black, Grand Heirophant Khatep, Tomb Prince, Necrotect & Liche Priest)
Slaanesh Daemons
For my Daemons, I'm going to try and do the following:
-> Finish M/P/B my Keeper of Secrets -- Head MIP, Rest PIP
-> Finish M/P/B my Heralds -- 1 Done, 1 PIP, 1 MIP
-> Finish M/P/B 5 Seekers of Slaanesh (Hopefully all 15-20 of them) -- 15 MIP
Progress:

what a remiss of me! I forgot to mention my scores!
I only used my neurons, but I scored 1 loss and 1 draw.
My first game my opponents got lucky with a whole load of 5's and 6's to penetrate and to work out the damage on my monolith, and my necrons FAILING a moral check WTF!

Subject: M.K's Mega-Blog! - all my projects in one place :)
Lol, its fine and sunny in Sydney. Looking forward to this!!
"Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim darkness of the far future there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods."
Not a picture update (what would thewre be to show, besides my monolith's battle damage (i.e. The top bits broke :( )) but I have some news!
I'll be doing some more work on da Tryadz, my orks for those who don't know.
Why? as the title sugests I've joined a Tale of 3 (+) Gamers! (or should that be Gamerz )
Anyway, I'll be making a few things, namely da Crime Lord, so more trukk boyz (with a kick- nob) some gretchin (or mega nobz, can't decide) and some flash gitz (please don't yell at me, please don't yell at me, please don't yell at me, please don't yell at me!)
So, WAAAGH! anyone

and Knightly, you may have to wait a BIT longer to see your marine, I'm having some issues finding the bits (sadly the bits I'm talking about are in my bits box, just shows that I need to organise it)

Given up looking for the bits, I'll just spend the 5 or so $ and buy them off EBay, for the guy I usually buy from...
Also, found my VC magic cards, YAY!
And I also found my copy of Caeldor, great High Elf book, I reccomend it
Not much moddeling/paint wise at the moment, but I've proven that Necrons aren't the worst assault army
And the Apoc game was great, really impressed with how my chaos marines did, even without a sing;e Fellbat (Raptor) or Sorcerer to help (yes, I forgot to bring them...)
I only ever lost troops on turn 1
Key moment in the Apoc Battle, killing terminators with bolter spam
Key moment it the Crons vs Tau game, Opponent deepstriking battlesuits, then in the next turn, them getting assaulted by necron warriors and losing combat, then the remenant running away.
Cake=Epic
Model=Epic
I won a quiz BY GUESSING EVERYTHING! (though I did lose points for getting a few questions wrong, but I also got points where I probably shouldn't because, for example, the 1st question was 'Name all the Loyalist Primarchs', all I did was mention the ones I couldn't remeber their exact names/placed down their last name in I didn't know their first)
Anyway, pulled out of tale of gamers for money reasons
Anyway...
Until Next Time...

Before I go ordering bits for knightly, I would like to know if anyone else would like an Eagle Paladin for the GMS.

Also, I've made a plan for what armies I'll start/expand next:
Expand Necrons more
Start SoB Start Nids
Expand Orks
