Nice stuff man! Keep it up!Base is looking good!

Happy V Day! (V for Vostroyans of course)
In the middle of my last midterms ever, so precious little work has been done. I found a local supplier of foam products, and got some 2 inch thick sheets fitted to an old power tool box. Now I have something to carry Hibernicus in! Starting in on the painting and flocking of the base, but I am still a long way behind where I was hoping I would be. Planning on making a big push Thursday night/Friday so I have this beastie battle ready for the Apocalypse game this weekend.

++++Incoming Transmission++++
The Foundry on Orion IV has come under attack from as of yet unknown hostiles. A principle factorium of Imperator Titan components, this foundry MUST NOT fall! Hibernicus Fortuna must complete emergency repairs in preparation for an immediate assault on Orion IV, scheduled in T-minus-83 hours, including transit time. NO heritic is permitted to survive, no matter the cost. Additional troops will be assigned as a vanguard en route

May the Emperors light Shine!

HA! May the emporers light fade and blacken like the heart of our Lord Nurgle!

Boooo!hisss!Boooo!Hail the emporers light on the holly golden throne of tera! The base s looking good Aeroroot!

Should be an interesting game: the terrain has been built specifically so that it can block a titans line of sight. Also, its 2000pts instead of 1500, but 500pts must be troop choices. We found that the titans just had too much range, and everyone was bringing tanks and no troops. Should be a lot of fun.
I am hoping updating late Friday night after I am done all I can do on Hibernicus.

Terra has two r's, Hazz..... LOL

Got the foam today! 2x2`` thick, and 6x1`` thick sheets. Boy was I lucky: Hibernicus barely fit inside one of these boxes when all was said and done, and it is quite snug inside to tell the truth.
Each box is about 7 and a half inches deep, and measures 14.5x18 inches inside. I would not want to go any smaller in box side: I barely made everything fit nicely as it was!

I have a midterm in Biomechanial Engineering tomorrow, but after that I hope to really make some progress. Cross your phalanges, but there could be a halfways decent progress update on the horizion!

Looks real good man....

I must know where you got that box! I have two Reavers that need a good transport.

I got 2 of them second hand at a thrift store. I think they one held some sort of power tool (circular saw or maybe survey equipment maybe). Not sure if I am going to use the second one for my 9 hammerheads, or wait and save it for the 2 warhounds I want....or give it to my fiancee so she has a case for her reverant(s) she wants for her birthday

Ok, the fiancee proved me wrong: its called the "Califone 2005 carry/storage case", and its meant for portable audio systems. About $63 American new (~40 GBP)

OK I'm getting some of those, thanks, Good Sir!

Ok, the fiancee proved me wrong:

Oh, damn... it's way too early for that to start! lol

Still haven't seen it all lit up and standing on a squished defiler......


And it is already boxed up.....


Tsk, tsk.......

******ERROR 1011001101********
The light transport "Podracer" is unable to leave system due to warp storms. It is recommended that alternate titan legons be selected to defend Orion IV.

Well, the weather turned nasty, with about 10cm of snow falling early this morning, and an additional 10cm forecasted for the rest of today. Too long a drive in such bad weather meant I was unable to get to the tourni. This was both good and bad, because the lighting connection from the base of the model into the stand is really messing up. I'll get some detailed wiring photos once it is done, along with the base when it is painted to a satisfactory standard.

Sorry, having technical difficulties: the heel of one of the feet isn't resting quite right, making the base a bit rocky. Once I fix the base, I'll post pics ASAP. I am on reading week now, so I hopefully have some time to get to work on this stuff.
