Yes I can imagine that was.. tiring :(

I complain about a 3 hour drive from one side of Ireland to another, when I actually compare that with how far some people have to commute, it seems to petty ><

Our last move had to be done in one trip, it was horrible. This time we are actually only moving about 15 minutes down the road into the heart of the small town we near by, instead of living in a very isolated area outside. We get to do the move over 3 days instead of in one trip, so it is totally going to be a lot more relaxed than last time!

thats nice, and wow, i wish i could go to anypoint in USA within 3 hours, that wasnt even the length of my old state.. although you guys still win in awsomeness seeing as we have no castles.. or mythology...

The Space Wolves are looking excellent Iffy, the gold on the dread is turning out really nice.

I bet you cant wait to get your own painting area.

Also good to see the commission requests are picking up, means we get to see loads more lovely painted minis.

Nice work on the Space Wolves thus far, Ifalna.

Any word on what sort of things we can expect to see from this latest batch of commissions?

Wow , love those shields, top work ifalna

Jovian sunspot

Pan-galactic gargle blaster

Jynnan Tonnyx

2 fl oz Coconut Cream
3 tbsp Cranberry juice Cran-apple
3 Ice
2 tbsp Orange juice
2 tbsp Vodka

Golden Chocobo.



...what?

What you need to make a Jovian Sunspot

Oh no, I meant it as a ... "...what?" as in 'What are you staring at."

As opposed to questioning the delicious ingredients to a Jovian Sunspot.

Thanks dude!
Lots of crazy stuff, I am waiting for confirmation on a few after sending back prices and turnover ideas etc, but the ones mentioned so far have been super cool. FW nurgle sorc, FW vampire counts wraith, Some orkies, some bretonian knights, lots of marines of various levels of awesome, oh and a Mortis engine (oh my god).

Also likely to be painting up some interesting little dudes for a fanzine, so I will totally try and keep peeps up to date on those

I want to try Spice Beer from Dune. It would blow my mind in every way.

YES PLEASE. Sounds amazing, oh wow.
I have been drinking really good quality ginger ale with burny hot ginger bits mixed with Whiskey and let me tell you.. it is good. Very tasty, spicy and hot. MMmmmm. Nothing quite beats a Hot Toddy though.

LOL U NERD. /returns to psp ff7 200+hour game with Aeris tier 4 limit break save.


So I am now painting up some Nurgly nurglemen who are full of Nurgle, while priming Robo Orcs. Clearly a good day for me.

LOL U NERD. /returns to psp ff7 200+hour game with Aeris tier 4 limit break save.

And proud of it!

Speaking of Gold. You were absolutely correct about the liquid gold. It's crazy to use, but the results are amazing. I need to practice some more with it.

It is total madness.

Something I learned the hard way, shake the pot and then open the lid and place it upside down on top. Paint from the residue in the lid. Way more particles of leaf and a little more controllable as it is thicker in there. Top up from pot when needed, then empty it back in when you are done. Keeping it on top of the pot will keep the rest of the paint relatively free of air.

ooo Nurgley Nurgle and Robo orks!?!?! looks like we have some treats in store for us

Can I smell booze in here?



Loving the weathering on those space wolves, Iffy. Looks really realistic.

Note to self - pictures of booze must be hosted from photo-bucket, not the dakka gallery... oops

I think Jovian sunspots need more vodka in them.

Sounds like we will see lots of pretty things in this thread soon

Heh, yes, you have to use an outside image host for non-gaming images. Now if you had a shot glass full of liquor with an Imperial aquila or Inquisitor symbol...Kid Kyoto might let that one through.

My younger years made me leery of Vodka, Schnapps, and Whiskey. What do you recommend with Rum, Bailey's, or Vermouth?

Everything that contains vodka automatically needs more vodka. Fact. There will indeed be lots of things, but not very pretty! More disgusting and rotten and also Orky.

Spoiler:

I think she has started my Necromunda minis (among other commissions) but we will have to wait and see. It might be her weekend break now.

Baileys + kahlua = oh my god, as Gits recently reminded me.
Shot glass 3/4 full of Kahlua, then place a teaspoon on top of it and carefully pour on bailies. It stays on top and looks like a tiny Guinness, tastes like an explosive coffee taste bomb.

I'm seriously finding that good ginger ale goes extremely well with Rum and Whisky, maybe even Vodka. The good quality stuff is so spicy and warm already, the fizz and alcohol just mix into absolute delicious.

I have indeed started your dudes, in fact, started does not do them justice, they nearly have all their bases down (I started them with white undercoat) and then they are being washed into dirty Nurgly heaven. The only reason I havn't taken shots is because they are extremely bright at the moment and won't look good till they start being washed, but expect shots today

Dont mix sainsburys own brand ginger beer with basics vodka....

Its not good....

Own brand is generally awful from what I've experienced with this stuff :S

This



and this



are king. Full of floating ginger bit goodness, oh man it is delicious. I get the 4 pack extra spicy one and mix the crud out of it. Freaking divine.

No rush on the pics. Do it when you think they're ready for public release. Anticipation can be a good thing.

While we're waiting, we might get more tasty alchohol drink mix recipes.

I'd forgotten about Kahlúa and my local grocer doesn't stock it. Piffle. I'll shop further afield tomorrow.

The Ginger Beer sounds delicious and there is a German distributor not far from here so someone around here must have some. Another hunt for a different day but the "quest" should be interesting.

It could be my "Holy Grail".

Yes they are totally not ready for the public just now, they would be trying to cover themselves and shrieking if I tried to take a shot. Give it a couple of hours however...

Currently walking around the house picking up things to throw away in preparation for the move. I found a giant bottle of Jaeger and some triple sec (why do I even have this..). I also found a bottle of champagne in.. the spare toilet.

What is going on?

Bundaberg is awesome!!! Love the stuff, quite hard to find up north here Iffy!

Pissed, Iffy - I finished the Pistoleer woman.

Why were you keeping champagne in the toilet, anyway?

Yeah, Bundaburg ginger beer is freakin awesome, once drank like 4 litres of the stuff in an hour

niallkissick wrote:Bundaberg is awesome!!! Love the stuff, quite hard to find up north here Iffy!

It is totally worthy buying in bulk. I make sure I buy a couple each time I shop for groceries, so I can sip them like a lady of leisure.

Dysartes wrote:Pissed, Iffy - I finished the Pistoleer woman.

Oh WOW. She turned out freaking gorgeous. Hair is nice and subtle, worked out really nice. Love the browns, rich but not overpowering.

Dysartes wrote:Why were you keeping champagne in the toilet, anyway?

I did not know we even had Champagne, hence the intense confusion D:

Did your hair instantly turn a fiery red? I hear that can happen.

SO, nurgly men.

Click 4 big yo


Skin, cloth, and metal done, super dirty and a nice limited palette. Still to go is their hair, and all their dirty Nurgly features. Spots, oozy bruises, weepy cuts, disgusto things like that.
Also need rotten teeth and horrible spit splots, and weeping pus / blood from eyes. HOW FREAKING LOVELY.
Tabletop but going a bit silly with the skin effects because it is fun.

Ps, check out heavy weapons guy at the end there. He has no Sandvich. :(

It seems wrong to use the adjective "beautiful" for anything that has to do with Nurgle, so I will say instead, "Wonderful"!

They will fit in great as some of the antagonists in my fallen Imperial city. Now I need to find some more suitable cultists and a few plague zombies as well as a plague marine or two.

Can you base them like you did the Inquisitors? I think I am going to adopt that style instead of my mechrite red scheme. I just need to learn how to use this black ink. How do you clean up your brushes after you apply the ink?

Did you post that at 2:41 AM your time? YOIKS!

Nurgle Delaques, eh? Interesting choice.
