Tournament was a blast went 1-2, should of gone 2-1 but it's my fault I forgot to move a dread 6" back to an objective last turn.

First game emperors will was epic, one of my favorite people to play. He was running sisters in MM Imolators with lots of melta squads with a Knight Crusader and Knight Warden. Game was a blast, pretty much mutual destruction. Knight Warden failed the charge against my Stompa, Stompa the following turn tried to retreat and rolled 4", didn't even make it to the ruins. So I charged and killed it. Got lucky and he missed with all his attacks. Blew up and scatter to his other knight and did a hull point. Would of been awesome if I rolled a 6. Following turn the Crusader and Stompa basically killed each other with the help of Morkanauts. Lost 5-8

Next game, Relic against 6 Flying Hive Tyrants. He killed everything but my Stompa first two turns. I did nothing but kill a few venom thropes and warriors. Took the Stompa and moved him on top of the relic so his tyrants couldn't get it. They couldn't kill the Stompa by the end of the game. Lost 5-7.

Last game was against Daemons. After I grounded his princes and fate weaver I killed him with hammer of wrath attacks. Charged his invis fearless star who couldn't hurt my Morkanauts and just stayed locked. Won 13-0.

Didn't get many pics of the second game due to how fast I was dying and the last game his models weren't painted so didn't bother taking pics. Big Mek Stompa definitely helped a lot. Had a blast and lotsa fun! Won best painted/sportsmanship but obviously could only win one or the other for prizes.

Sounds like a blast! Congratulations on both wins. Your army looks fantastic! Well done man.

Congrats! It gives me hope for my own Dread Mob when I get it painted up.

@Gisplitta- Thanks as always. I'm going to have to make a trip up to Yankee land sometime.

@Anpu-adom- Thanks, hang in there with it and learn it. Play to objectives. We are instagibbed in Big Guns Never Tire though.

Have another tournament in a month for 2k now. So I am going to be adding a belly gun to my Stompa and Magnetize the KFF for my other Morkanaut.

Was messing around with my camera earlier and took a good picture of my count as Buzzgob. Hope y'all enjoy.

Today's progress has been slow going. KFF is Magnetized on the Morkanauts now. My Stompa got a hole carved in its belly to magnetize it and finished the non Deff Kannon peice while waiting on bits to arrive to finish the Deff kannon.

Love your version of buzzgob! Nice pic, but you might consider putting a sheet of white paper in front of the light source to tone it down just a little bit.

That game looked like it was a blast and had nicely painted armies also!

@Gisplitta- Thanks, yes I realize that, one day I'm going to have to buy a back drop or something. I was just messing around taking pictures of him trying to update my profile avatar.

@Ustrello - Thanks, it was a blast indeed!

Got my bits order in today and wasted no time. The Big MEK Stompa is officially finished, touched up, Magnetized the belly Deff kannon. Hope y'all enjoy! So glad I found spiky bits page on how to convert one with plastics bits. Forgeworld can just get too expensive.

Stompa looks excellent. A bit sideways... but excellent!

Wow haven't you been busy?

Looks like you had a blast at the tournament, nice summary of the games.

Stompa is looking awesome .

EDC

@Gisplitta- Not sure why they are side ways. When I click on them they are vertical. Hate this new phone. Thank you though!

@EDC - Always busy, late nights with my son. He's been teething and hit a growth spurt. Thank you and it was a blast. Going to a local tournament next weekend.

I've been working on my wife's Harlequins and started to fall in love painting them. I put a layer of ink then highlighted them. Still not complete but definitely table top standard. I am thinking of doing 1000 point Dark Eldar army to compliment her army with all the double tournaments that have been popping up. I'm teaching her how to play this week. Luckily if she were to come with me her folks loves to baby sit our son.

Excellent job! I'd love to play those Eldar!

That mek with the big tusks and large green eye is super rad, I love it.

@Gisplitta- Thanks you much, I took your advice to heart when I was painting them.

@Heretic Tom - Thanks, he is one of my favorite models.

Had insomnia last night so stayed up painting a Solitaire and finished him just now this afternoon
What a beautiful model!

Expirementing with my camera...

Nice!

@Gisplitta - Thanks man!

Have been working on checkers, they look okay. They are not great, I have been working on them though to better improve my painting skills.

Just takes practice my friend... stick with it, you'll get it.

Have been working on Harlequins and bases lately. Went to a 1000 point tournament last weekend and played my wifes Harlequins. It got fun by the second and third game, when I started to learn. I finally finished purchasing the rest of her 2k army, now we just have to paint them.

I have to say the Death Jesters is a beautiful model. Some better pictures of my Deff Dread Mob.

I am SO jealous! What a beautiful army!

@Gisplitta- Thank you, love them both! Took those pictures for Ebay, at this time I want to fund other 40k projects, if they sell they sell if not they will have a cozy home at my place on display.

I've commandeered painting my wife's Harlequins bikes to finish her army for 2k points. Just have to paint riders and another voidweaver and jester.

Very cool jet bikes!

Nice progress on the bikes so far.

EDC

@Ustrello- Thank you, I love the Harlequins bikes!

@EDC - Trying! Lots of detail, but fun to paint non the less.

Have been working on the riders. Got the drivers done. Some with flash others not! One thing I love about taking pictures for my blog I can see what I need to touch up especially with flash.

I will have to get full army pictures with natural Sun light and when my last death jester arrives, only thing we are missing for my wife's full army.

Cool. How many points is that?

EDC

Really cool. With armies that usually contain a lot of unique colour schemes ( like Harlequins or Brettonnians) I love a unified colour scheme across the force. Really cool scheme choice as well.

Your Orks look properly Orky as well.

@EDC - Its 2000 points!

@Thraxus Of Turai- Thank you, wife picked out the color scheme.

So I'm still waiting for my Death Jester and have a game today to test the list. All my armies have always had one CARL! So I had to make a count as death jester. So once I have one Carl here will be my cheer leader. He's not great but who cares!

Relieved my Orks did not sell. Love my Orks and realized I was just burned out a little! Onward to more conversions, this is my newest Deff Dread WIP! Hope y'all enjoy.

That is an awesome conversion!
