Thanks EDC, I didn't think I could finish the 50ss in time but about half way through I realized I was way ahead of where I needed to be and added Ryle.
But if you'd actually TRIED you could have finished the Valedictorian and Student of ...
Snakeyness?
Close enough.
Yeah, but I had stuff that needed to get done.
Excuses, Excuses.
I LIKE EXCUSES!
Thpbit.
Ze dig-na-tea, eeit bourns us-es. And if we are talking to / insulting one another we're fine. It's when she doesn't talk we got problems.
How is it we need to worry when you AREN'T delusional? That seems kinda bs aks.
On a related note Dungeon Saga arived! Yaysers!
How the everloving blue banana mana potion is that related?
... *points at own skull* Kidneys. Definitely kidneys.
Oookay then. Ginight ev'ry body!
Goooood Niiiight ding ding ding ding.

Zombicide Black Plague arived Saturday. Mistakes were made. I have a new goal for December.
Seriously?!?!
As I said, mistakes were made.
Starting Proof Photo for December:

ZCBP Survivors are done. I'm going back to a goal of Misaki, Shang, Yamiziko, and an Orian. Bases and Yams will be the chalange.
Wait what's going on?


They're done. I'ma gunna paint up a one of each for my Last Blosom models.
... it! Quit with the moving target!

Wow you got those done quick. At you pace you work you're alright having lots of goals!

Thanks EDC, I went with simple paint jobs so I could finish them quickly.
You mean so you could be lazy.
I do have too many survivors coming my way, I needed to cut corners somewhere.
Laaaaaazy.
Well at least good progress has been made elsewhere.


That's all for now.
See y'all later.

Well boop. I failed December.
How?!?!
I didn't quite finish Yams and the room was a wash. Progress was made but backslide occurred.
it!
However I'm going to try again:
Yams, Vanessa, Vic of Ash, and Vic of Blood. 0ss, 3 finishing touches and half a trench coat to sculpt
Student of Conflict, 4ss
Taelor, 10ss
X3 Ronin, 18ss (6ss each)
Desperate Merc, 4ss
Total: 36ss full painting, some sculpting, and 15ss+master for finalization
You better finish this goal.
TBH I'm allready on track/ahead, the pic is a day or two old and Yams is done along with VoA and Taelor is started.

Good news, we're on track!
I thought we were ahead?
A little, life intervened.
Hrmm.
Pictures, that should help.



Why is that Ronin skinned alive?
I've fixed that.
... Seriously, what the blue banana mana potion have you been doing?
... Umm...

HOLY ! HOW DID YOU GET ALL THAT SO QUICKLY!
The central scum, Reb Headhunter, E-Wing, and one Force Awakens starter are mine. The rest are my dad's.
STILL! WHAT THE BLUE BANANA MANA POTION?!?!
HE STARTED IT! all I did was get him the Millennium Falcon for Christmas as a desk ornament.
... Your family has issues.
Yup.

Came for the models, stayed for the freakshow. Very fun log to read, great work on the models too

Thanks Inevitable Faith. We don't churn out updates at an amazing rate and I can't match Klaus, not Santa or spiralingcadaver but we try to have fun.
Even if you are a feth-up when it comes to planning.
I do my best.
Well your best isn't good enough.
...
Reaaal mature there.
I AM AN ÜBER MATURE-IFACATED ADULT-LING!!! LOL LOL LOL LOL!!!

And Muse Goddes says "save your loots for demonic hordes, and get your butt in gear!"
Umm... Yessir, oops, and onit.
What do you mean by "Oops"?
I gots an IG-2K and a Y-wing.
What the is wrong with you?
...I got some Malifaux done.


What are those shiny grey things?
Me finishing 12 soulstones worth of models from scratch today.
How?
Skill.


...You cheated.
Hey, those translucent greys are tricky! And have you ever tried to get an opaque finish on clear?
I still say you cheated.

Not very familiar with Malifaux but those guys and gals look great. Very nice variety in colour, it's appealing to the eyes.

Yeah cool stuff. I like the brickwork bases.

Thank you, I'm glad they're visually appealing. Due to their fluff the color riot was intentional. They're the random mercenaries that take any job they can so they don't have a single uniform.

The bases are Secret Weapon cobblestone bases with TBH, way too involved of a paint job.

But the real question is: did the cheating cheater cheat on the so called "12 soulstones" he "finished" yesterday?
Would you just drop that?
... How about, no.

WOO HOO!
Waaaaat?
I'm back ahead.
What.
Look ye who are mighty and... Despair?


... Ok, next month is some demons.
Why?
Too. Much. Cleavage.
Oh, come on!
Let's see here:
Cleavage, eyesore, cleavage.
Cleavage, cleavage, cleavage, sway walking.
Child, child, cleavage.
Or am I not making myself clear?
Sheesh, it's 1 crew.
You. Owe. Me.
Okay, fine. Lets see, plan was finish some overdue stuff and 25-30 soulstones of oddballs. Hmmm. Will Nephlim work? they're the only ones I have that don't need better weather.
Ugh. I suppose.
Ok, Lilith is 0, Nekemia is 13, Angel Eyes is 9 and the Lilitu is 7, throw in the TTB Female at 1 and how much am I at?
... Zero. What are the odds and ends again?
Ama No Zako for 0, Avatarcus the Emmisary at 10, Flower the Performer for 0, Arcane Effigy at 4, and 4 A-boms for 8-16.
So 1 dude, 5 genderless, a maybe chick maybe dude Oni, and a cleavage for 22-30ss.
And the definite female is a classy dancer who's dress is above the knees but isn't trashy.
Meanwhile the Nephlim trollops are?
Alluring, Mrs.Teeny Bikini finalist, What the Blue Banana Mana Potion midriff outfit, trying to steal your job while pushing good taste in a tight dress, and wearing a nice tight shirt.
You'll be painting odds and ends.
Yes. Yes I will. Oh! can I spend some money on non-demony things?
What will you be getting?
These: Heroines in Sensible Shoes
You're really pushing it tonight aren't you? *sigh* I suppose so, but as soon as they arrive you have to paint them as penitence.
YAAAAAY!!!!
Like he didn't even hear me.

Good looking crew there, keep up the good work.

February can go die in a hole as far as I'm concerned.
What's up?
Work is pushing me to the brink and I got almost nothing I meant to finish done.
So what did you finish?
The Knights of the Warp that only needed detailing are done and uh, 6,9,12,16, ... 23ish MechZeds.
Twenty ... Three?
6 were down to washes and almost all the rest had their skin base coated.
Still, twenty three. What the blue banana mana potion brought this on?
Umm, exasperation and panic?
So how does my horde look now?
About like this.


Looks good, what's next on the block?
Freikorps. 7 models 39ss Schill, trunk, Strongarm, libby, pyro, sniper, and grunt.
... Shouldn't that be 8 models and 44ss? You forgot a grunt.
He was painted yesterday as a test.
Lemmie see!
Ere ya go.
OooOoo, snazzy. See?

Well on track for the goal.


Just need to finish the Strongarm suit then I'm adding a Hannah and for Marm a lord tartar sauce and eDenney.
...
Anything to say?
*YAWN* Hmnm? Didjya say somthin? *YAWN*
Fine, go back to sleep.
*snore*

lookin good. Mot sure what system these guys are from but they're pretty awesome. That chest on tracks cracks me up

More Malifaux, Grampa VonSchill and his crew of professional mercenaries.

Ah Ha Ha Ha ha! Blogity now.
So how did march go?
Like this!


So what's going on?
Friekorp minus Hanna's Roses, 8 pre-dip Morcs, 10 Gargle-oils, and 4 Abyssals. Slightly clearer pics here
Acceptable.
NO IT BLOODY WELL AINT!
Go away violence.
*SPLAT*
Nobody likes you.
... harsh.
Meh, so you mentioned Abyssals?
Yes I did.


ooOOoo, I like.
Even her?


Does she speak?
Noooo.
Then yes. April Goal?
Bam.


Plus 2 rows.


Sounds good, get to work.
Yes'm.

Nyeeow! Update! Nyeeow!



E Denney is done, Aonius himself is done but still needs his clock, 3 shrubs made, 10 dwarves for a commission started instead of one of the rows.

Sounds good.

Some eye-dee-10-tea left me in charge of myself the last few days.
How big is the new army?
... I guess I WASN'T running myself then. Didly boop got done, I want to build a $60-$100+ single figure and I now own a G-1A "Mist Hunter".
Oh, okay, you were broke.
Yep.
So how'd April go?
Extra paycheck, new boots, Mantic Succubi arived, 7 bases and a lantern short, and this:


Not bad, what's the next goal?
4 blue fire termies, half finished odds and ends, spray painting, and more updates.
HiYah! Mush mule! Mush!
... MAM, YES MAM!

Okay, let's see how we're doing. Hmm, last update was the 2nd, today isss. the 11th. Progress! Let's check that!
... not a lot.


I see some new bugs done.
They were allready mostly done, they just had some final details.
Did you maybe repaint the Jumpmaster 5K? Or at least detail it?
Nope, fresh outa the box.
Basecoated Zeds? Great deal on the new plasticrack?
Spray paint and traded 30ish Orks with extensive aftermarket parts. I was never going to get around to them so it was a fair trade to my eyes, but not a great deal.
What the blue banana mana potion? I'm trying to help here!
Meh, it's not a big deal. I've got two weeks left.
You up and the strumpets get it.
... Who the blue banana mana potion would that be?
The Abbysal and Nephlim ones.
Oh . If your threatening the demonic strumpets...
I have access to pyrotechnics, a sacrificial grill, and a bucket of crazy.
There will be an update on the 15th with the results of a friendly tourney, and another on the 18th with at least the main glow of the termies.
...Please put the match out.
Dont. Feth. Up.
Yes mam.

Oh Great and Terrible Demonic Muse! Pleeeeeeeeease, have mercy! Work whuped yesterday.
:yawn: Hm? Wuzzat?
Dodged. A. Bullet.
What the blue banana mana potion are you talking about?
Erm, nothing. I just suck at commanding your Freikorps, ninjas, and MechZeds.
How bad was it?
10 possible vp / game, 3 games. I got 6. 5 were In the first game.
... You sucked.
Ayup. Summoning Levy/Alyce/Joss went ok but summoning Dreamer with growth Nekemia got in close and ed me up. I like stalker Misaki and Sgt. Strongarm but Shenlong is a to deal with. Ama No Zako worked and so did Void Wretch scheming but I ran out of time.
Ouch.
On the upside I now have a 3 tailed, 3 eyed, magic wind weasel with a cute little bell.
Hopefully tomorrow will go better.
I doubt I'll do worse if I get a game in.
0 or 1 vp would do it.

HA HA! 6VP tie last night!
It's sad that that's actually an improvement.
Stalker Misaki, Ama, Sgt. Strongarm, and the Torakage vs Raspy, Hannah, SnowStorm, 2 acolytes, an ice gamin, and Essence of Power.
That's nice, your required work?
Blart BluBluBlart! 2 purpleings, a Greening, a successful casting of Raise Siege Engine & Dead Crew, aaand the ghostfire termies.


Hmm, I'm seeing Hans and a B wing but no termies.
This better?


Good, they're done.
Eh, maybe. I'm thinking of having bits of them entering realspace
Ooo, that could be interesting.
Yeah but I'll need the red-headed stepchild that followed me home's opinion.
Boop.
Exactly how I feel about Malifaux book 4 rumors.
... Why the blue banana mana potion?... *gets stared at* Oh, yeah, that.
Yep. Anyway next goal... 26th of May, pDenney's replacement arm, and last 2 commissioned dwarves.
Sounds good.
... Does this mean the demonic strumpets are safe?
Yes.
Oh good.

Oathsworn heroines have arrived.
Ooo let's see!


Now there's a company I can respect.
Yup, good sculpts, top notch molding and casting, and highly communicative. They'll be seeing more of our money.
No you goof, first human releases and they're rational females!
That too. I only have 2 small quibbles. They have integral disk bases, not my first choice by a long shot. And the other is that they're True 28mm making them about a head shorter than typical 25mm Heroic scale. Hopefully they make some males to go with them soon so I can make co-ed adventuring groups.
Still, totally worth it.
Oh yeah, however they put me in a quandary. Have them jump to the front of the line or finish this weeks goal before continuing?
Hmm... Commissioned Dwarves then them.
Right.

YAY! The Y chromosome free Packer Backer dwarves are done! ... Hopefully.


WoHoo! Wait. What do you mean "Hopefully"?
I was given almost total freedom to paint them as I saw fit but there is a smaaall chance the cleric's pupil-less eyes, and white hair may be overruled. However traditional dwarves was the one guide I actually had so unlike the autumnal equatorial elves darker skin was NOT approved. Meanwhile the skunk stripe hair, and a tropical flower in her hair may be nixed.
Aww, I kinda like her.
I'm considering picking up a copy of her for myself anyway so if she gets axed I'll just get a new one and start over and keep her for myself.
That's ... Kinda wrong.
The advantage of the customer being my dad, and her still being in production and an unconverted single pice cast. I can get away with doing that.
Oh, well okay then. That's diffrent.
Yup. Either way I can now start on the rest of our Heroines in Sensible Shoes.
Why the blue banana mana potion are you blogging? Get painting!
I said I would blog but Okey Dokey!

Very nice dwarves, I really like them a lot.

Thanks Inevitable Faith, thankfully (I suppose ) they went over well with my dad as well.

Blogity

Just a quick update: bard, sorceress, mother, and raw materials.
PICY-ATURE!


Holly shrubbery! Where the blue banana mana potion did this come from?
Broken snake tree. Of course I've done it again.
Huh?
The sorceress is a packer backer because I tried to avoid making her a Christmas tree.
Ooops, to be fair green is always X-mass, green & gold (Packers are a US Midwest thing ya goof), tree, punk, oceanic, or da ?
True, And I spent monies yesterday. Games Plus must love my indecisiveness, poor impulse control and self made guilt.
AUGH! How much did you spend?
$28, I didn't buy anything last week so I felt I should get SOMETHING and I saw Rafkin but remembered I need 90 degree styrene stock and saw the X-Wing stuff on the way prompting "Oh yeah, I don't have an A-wing and it doesn't need paint work!" They were out of any right angle styrene so I wound up with an A-wing and Rafkin.

Ummm.
