Finishing my Priaris and then I'm going to have to decide which is better to have on monday - an assembled Dark Talon or an painted and assembled Cypher/Eisnhorn.

Probably the solos - I still can't decide on a paint scheme for the talons.

Putting together some Empire miniatures. I got a resin Empire warrior priest and I have to say I'm impressed. I heard horror stories about GW resin and this guy is actually an almost clean cast. Just some standard moldline removal and flash/gate clean up and he'll ready to paint.

Thought for the day: Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.

Building stuff for Warhammer Quest.

10 Chaos Warhounds
6 Ungors w/Spears
6 Ungors w/Short Bows

Going to try to knock over another twelve Gors and maybe 12 Bestigors. We'll see.

Played 2 missions of Betrayal @ Calth, introducing one of my gaming buddies to the game. We then queued up a table and played a Necromunda match. He had horrid dice rolls for Necromunda but ate my breakfast twice for the B@C games.

I then, stupidly, bought a new Orlock gang as I was leaving to support the awesome game store. They're a cool store but I need another gang like a hole in the head.

Hoping to finally be able to get my second Talos to the painting stage (the metal kit). It's been a real pain to build, though I also brought some of it on myself by making a couple of conversions. For example, I ground away all the skulls and trophies from the nose, and replaced the head of the flayed victim on the back.

Also repainted some Plague Monks from my big bin of Skaven, which I got free from a friend, in horrendous caked-on paint schemes.

And add 12 Gors w/2 Hand Weapons and 1 Gor Musician to the list from above. No chance to build anything else.

Had to cannibalise a pair of hand-weapons from the Marauder sprue to have enough for every Gor, but it worked out in the end.

So as we are nearing the birth of our firstborn I have emptied our spare bedroom and set up a new workspace in a empty storage closet. Now I just need to get a lock for the door so I don´t have to worry about the little one getting her hands on any chemicals. I must admit it´s a tight fit but better than nothing.

While at my dads, collecting some long lost minis I had actually forgotten what I had left with him,
As well as the AoBR box, the unmade mk3 land raider, and a 2008 ork battleforce most of the boyz have been assembled but still have a sprue of boyz, the bikes and trukk have been assembled and unpainted and the black reach Orks are all unpainted

Also found is a 5th ed space marine codex, so I’ll be able to retire the 2nd ed one even though it’s the better codex

And found a tube of citadel poly cement, a real blast from the past and is still squishy

My local FLGS had a painting day. Painting miniatures is one of the two things my boy and I have naturally in common and it was a fun chance to get out and paint.

I picked up a Star Wars legion ladnspeeder for him. It was a little over $20, comes 90% assembled and is mostly one solid block of resin, making it a parent's dream for small children. I don't play legion, but I think that this might be the go-to for special occasions like this (normally he just paints a $3 bones figure)



I got Cypher mostly done. I panicked when I realized I had failed to airbrush a foot, but threw some Gnarls green on and the effect is growing on me.



I only got barely started on Eisenhorn, but was able to postertac him together for a game tonight. Tommorow will be finishing him and starting on my first Dark Talon, while also simple greening my second hand nephilim. I have some Black 2.0 on the way for that fighter.

Simple Greening a Nephilim fighter. The plan is remove the Black Matte Paint and apply a Nice Black 2.0 to it. I'm hoping the effect is as freaky as advertisted.

Also finishing Eisenhorn and Cypher - hopefully.
