You win a Morley for your painting quality and for keeping up a good and consistent running blog.

The paintjob on your Warboss is pretty neat. I don't see old metal painted that good very often.

Really like your painting - you have done a great job.

It is let down however with your prep work - clearing up the flash lines and drilling the barrels would IMO make a huge difference seeing as they are painted so nicely.

Cheers

Well, I figured that since I have 100+ to do, and that I'm only painting them to tabletop quality, that going over every model all choppy-like just isn't worth it. Especially since I tried it once, and really screwed it up. I instead just use really thick paint to hide them as much as I can. I know it's a problem, but really, you're not going to notice at 3+ feet.

Well, consistant as I can. With the advent of school and exams, things get busy. That's why things have been changed to Sunday. I try to get at least one model in per week, so as not to dissapoint. Although obviously, the goal is for more.

Sorry guys, no update this week. I got a few things done for my orks, but most of this weeks painting time went to Typhus. I'll get the things I did this week as well as even more next week.

Update will be a bit late this week, as my sister is slowed, and didn't put the cord for the camera back.

It's basicly 2 nobz... although I'm converting another grand master for my Grey Knights, which'll probably take the rest of the week.

In other news, had an 8 man, 5000 point game today.

Started around 12, and ended around 5:30. I had to leave early though, because I had to go driving with my dad. Still, this'll be a regular thing now, as it's only a 15 minute walk away.

I was late a bit, so I ended up acting as auxilliary forces for another guy who played GK. I was pretty much two units of teleport attack squad, and one unit of GK GM and retinue.

Ended up getting my Grey Knights annihilated though, just had 2 of 16 left. I managed to toast a few khorne flakes, and shoot up a few orks, but after I deepstriked right into the heart of my foe, I was eaten alive by all of them right away. Still managed to do a fair amount of damage. Next time, I'll arrive on time, and advance with the rest of my allies, using them to cover my advance.

I also bought another GKT, which I'm going to convert to a CC GM. Not sure if I'll give him a second CC weapon, or a stormshield. Power weapons were the death of me this game, and a storm shield could help that out a bit. Shame it's not 3+ like SM's though.

Sorry this week's update is so late. Dakka wasn't working for me on Sunday, and I kinda forgot.

About fething time, eh? Well, as you all know, I've been a bit sidetracked, with Typhus, my GKs, and... well... now a Cannoness... but don't tell anyone I told you, okay?

First we have Mr. Big Burna. I painted him using the same method I did for Snikrot, and this time around... not so good. Won't be doing that again.


And... Huggie. Now, I know, these two look a lot like the box models... Well... I just figured those two configurations looked so good that I HAD to. This one goes back to the classic, after I found another pot of black glaze(my hobby shop has ran out, and won't be ordering any for a while).


Once again, sorry for the missed week, I'll try to make up for it with plenty of new models, both inquisitional and orky... wait... I mean... just orky.. yeah... shhhhh!

I want to get some orks even more now, I love your scheme so much.

Well, I won't be doing that for two reasons. First, I LOVE that head. Second, I figure that it could be considered part of the armour, and since Dagul is wearing a set that once belonged to Ghaz, all is right with the world.

Not to mention that it's superglued in, so I can't really take it out.

As for the cigar tips, I've meant to go and add the red, but I keep forgetting. I should get that done. Also, I should add a glyph or something to Zagsnik's fist.

fafnir is right i mean his leader could be one of those people that got the implant from grotsnick. the only thing i that grotsnick lost the remote
