I think that cat is going to eat your greatest comission sometime.

Divinations cost £9000 apeice but for people like Iffy their free. Good for you Iffy!

the cat will eat ya cheese an ham samich

@JB: For the love of God, NO Dana Winner!!! It is vocal punishment.. And even worse, she's from my country.. :(

Nice work on the eyes. You going to leave the rest of the cat primer white? Or just a quick calico so you can play right away at a table-top standard? With the pink nose and hetrocrhomatic eyes I guess you have the 3 color minimum right there.

Nice work on the orcs, and cute cat.

Well, nevelon stole the painting gag, so I'll just chime in with a 'awww, adorable little thing.'

Well done Iffy!

Kitties what?! Adorable little bugger, bummer about the deaf business, but it sounds like he found a good home for a bit Makes me miss when our oldest was a kitten and constantly climbing all over me. Now that he is 13 pounds his demands for attention a little less cute and a little more like assault

Send in the assault cats!

Ifalna you are a saint! I'm a dude, and im dirty, loud, enjoy explosions and the likes.. but cats are my weakness, used to have 4 of em. unfortinatly only have 1 now, but it definatly gets more attention than most people!

He is ridiculously cute! Good for you for bringing him in and taking care of him.

Niceties aside though, what did you name him?

The Khan perhaps? The Great Two Toned One? The White Haunter? The White Lord?

The Ordicatniss Meowmotha?

PLEASE tell me you named him the Ordicatniss Meowmotha!

The Ordicatniss Meowmotha

Type: Beast (unique)

Points: 35

WS2 BS1 S2 T2 W2 I3 A1 Ld5 Sv-

Wargear: claws and teeth (close combat weapon)

Special Rules: Independent (Cat)racter

Adorable: No blows may be struck against this adorable kitty in close combat, and it may not be targeted with shooting either.

Aww: This kitty is so cute, enemies spend all their time looking at it rather than fighting. In a combat involving the Ordicatniss Meowmotha, all enemy units in the same combat are hit automatically

Whooose a pwetty wittle ickle squeeky pushwushy. I just want to squeeze him and tickew his wittoo bwelly.

...and now's these's tea all over my keyboard.

The cat is awesome though.

While I'm thinking about it - if the kitten actually is deaf, invest in a laser pointer. Makes it very easy to move the cat from room to room, and can be used to get its attention when required.

Finally back!

Glad everyone liked the wee kitten, last few days have been trying to get his sleeping patterns into normality and also making vet trips. He is clear for feline aids and leukemia, so we will be keeping him Very very happy, and he looks really great now that he is clean and feeling better -



I actually got more than 4-5 hours sleep last night so got loads of work done!

All of the orkies now have their red and brown blocked in, and their metals finished. The rest are in various stages of having their "poncho and straw" colour added, and will then have varied shades of washes added and then some rehighlight.

Here are the 4 that have all of their poncho colour down, so I figured I would shoot them instead of a ragtag mix up of everyone together They are starting to come together now, can't wait to add some patterns onto the ponchos and add their black parts. Still early WIP, it takes a long time to even get one colour blocked in when you are painting so many models at once!



Hope to have the rest at this stage for tomorrow, and get their shading done.

Also, Dysartes, that is an amazing idea. I am totally going to do that.

Any update on PMs

Glad to be of service, Ifalna. I got one for the family's current cat, Earl, when I went home for my Mum's birthday in November last year, after seeing one of the trailers for Puss in Boots - all of a sudden, no need to try and retrieve the kitten from under the sideboard...

Public Safety Announcement: Do not shine laser pointer into the kitten's eyes, though ears and front paws are allowed if you're careful.

Have you named him, or gotten him a diamond collar yet? If not, I recommend Blofeld...

I'm still not convinced by the modelling of the ponchos on the Orks yet, though that is a nice colour you've got basecoated on there

That's a bit of a personal question, don't you think?

*sigh*

You can dress 'im up... but you most certainly can't take 'im out!

Hahah stupid s... I meant a plural form of private messages

Iffy, those orks are Muy Caliente

My first post in the P&M sections in a while, and I make a goofball out of myself lol...

Doing them right now! FOR REALZ. Being awake and able to finally communicate with words and not grunts is absolutely amazing.

Oh don't worry, I was a youngin during the explosion of laser pointer fads, safety was drummed into us, violently.

I am thinking I can get the ponchos looking nice, some patterns and dusting on them should really help out!

Not unless you want everyone shot and covered in terrible booze, no!

I'm more than happy to cover everyone in terrible booze - why waste the good/expensive stuff? - but I'd still be sober as a judge...

Sorry Iffy, I assumed you were busy... I feel bad for my impatience

You have been waiting more than an acceptable amount of time, it's me who should be apologising, not you! Don't be silly! Getting through them now, will be with you in a moment

Kitty's OK, has a home and a name, and Iffy's painting again.

All is right with the world for a moment.

I want to comment on your models, but you put more pics of the cat! OMG I love his/her blue eyes!!

'Ard 40K Players! Badasses of the universe! We crush armies under our-
D'Aaaaaaaaaaw! Cute kitty!
The orcs look awesome, and the kitten is a photogenic little beauty.

Update time!

Oh god they are so close to being finished, I'm not even going to clean up this shot cause I plan on getting them done by tomorrow.

Just the black highlight, little details like the wires, bandages, and ornaments to go, then its just the sand bases and they should be all set. They look quite hilarious in a good way. <3



Kitten managed to destroy my makeshift lightbox by using it as a base to launch himself onto one of my other cats, so I have to craft a new one soon. Oh the shame. Should have updates tomorrow, back on track now with painting back to normal

they look good.

Can't you deploy your lightcube?

Actually, painted up the ponchos look really great. Hmm. Might have to thieve that after all!

Mind you, painted up by you I suspect anything would look good.

Oh mah gah, kitten.
