Thanks for that RT. I'm so used to it now it doesn't phase me (unless I've made some big update that gets lost in the mix).

Thanks Gir! No flames... ghostly glowing... woooooooh..... spooooky!
@CtC: Hope it was worth your while. Actually put some thought into that as well as getting that build done right quick so I could post it.

Yes, and another milestone you've seen me through... thanks mate.
@tipios: Thank you & glad you like the new idea. We'll see how it goes once I get rolling.
No substantive updates tonight. Spent the evening hanging out with wyfox painting but neither of us is very fast. Been working on one of my FW grot tanks. Nearly done, then we'll focus my attention on that LoTD model.

Look above your user name, there's the date. Just to the left there's a pic of a little piece of paper with a bent corner. Click on it. It'll show your post (or whatever post you're clicking on) in it's normal spot on the page... but the URL will change to the URL of that specific post. Then you can cut and paste that URL as normal and it'll take people right to the targeted post.

@Wolf guard 252: Thanks man, really appreciate the comment and glad you're enjoying the process. Feel free to jump in any time!
@Vik: My pleasure. Gotta spread the Dakka love!
Well, no update today. I blame Solar_lion. The kids where just going to bed (my normal painting time) when Solar called and we ended up talking for an hour or more about next year's Adepticon, army lists, themes and the like. Then it was MY bed time!

No worries Brian. We were just talking philosophy, scope and the challenges of coordinating 8 people in two separate teams while still staying true to the overall theme. We weren't trying to make any actual decisions about the teams.
Also we kicked around that LR list of mine, which HAS been "made available"... Mr. Sponge Brian Smarty Pants.

Old as in long time, friends as in I'd remove someone's kidney if he needs one.

#1 doesn't "call"... he only "receives calls". Solar_lion wrote:Old as in long time, friends as in I'd remove someone's kidney if he needs one.
Keep in mind Solar isn't a surgeon... more of a "I'll cut your heart out with a spoon." kind of guy. (or... kidney as needs be) Solar_lion wrote:As for the LotD are you going to doe something simular to the glow the necron figure have? OSL'ish
That's the general idea... and it won't be easy.
