Basecoating some Gretchin and my Coronus Grav-Carrier and trying to finish up some Inceptors and a converted Primaris Librarian.

Started loading another two PLOGs from my back-ups to Imgur.

Patiently waiting for some Mordheim terrain to show up, and some Battlegroup rulebooks to show up (yay for reading). Unfortunately we're on the outside loop of our normal UPS driver so this stuff normally shows up in the evening...(le sigh)

Cutting up and magnetizing the arms of the plastic contemptors.

Their poses suck for close combat dreads, but for mortis dreads...

Loaded another Imgur folder with a complete PLOG (over 280 images). Repaired one page of it so far.

Cheers,

Painted up three ruins from the Red Vectors set I ordered for Mordheim --- have another seven buildings to work on. Also laminated a bunch of Battlegroup reference charts --- aaaand received test prints for my Warhammer 40K tokens.

Finished the majority of the primarus marines i will ever need

need to fix 1 sergeant, make 3 more with power swords then the characters.

Made magnetised movement trays so that I can use my daemons in Kings of War.

Nice!

I did some more work on my primrus marines myself. Not as much as I wanted to but I do what I can when I can.

Repaired another 8 pages to fix another PLOG.

I painted up a tiny frog and put it on top of a tank

Painting hellblasters today. Because my copy of destiny 2 is taking a full day to download.

So finally got around to finish my knight. Did not turn out exactly as I wanted but turned out to be a great learning experience. Also, I now hate painting yellow with a passion.

I just played in a 40k tournament today. Worst tournament finish in a very long time, since I failed to win a single game. Just happened to draw three very bad matchups plus I'm very new at running a Chaos Marines army. Has me feeling very blah about 40k in general right now. On a brighter note, I did pick up a box of Start Collecting: Chaos Space Marines, which will become a Helbrute for my Death Guard (also usable by my regular CSM), a squad of Noise Marines, and either a Termie Lord or Sorcerer, depending on my needs once I figure out what's actually good in that codex.

Played a game of AoS.
We played 1k on a 4 x 4 table using the new Open War cards.
Since we play so infrequently, 1k is actually about all that makes sense for us to try to manage. So a start collecting box is not far from being a viable army in our group

Fixed another PLOG, although I used the bypass photobucket rather than Imgur this time.

Painting some 5th ed bret horses with the old empire armoured horse heads.

Anyone got some good guides for painting horses or barding?

I remember an excellent Eavy Metal guide circa WD199 that showed common markings and how to paint them... Any helpers?

Finally going to strip my Fire Prism's underside. The all I need to do is glue the whole thing together, and my 2 heavy support choices will be done!

primed a test model for DFC.

Uploading some images and sending them for possible trades.

Cheers,

Got my ass kicked in AoS again.

Still working on those horses!

Fixing areas where shade had over pooled or settled wrongly. Brightening tone on the flanks of the horses and doing some edge highlighting on the barding to create definition where there was previously poorly detailed lumps of old plastic.

Managed to break one horse off its base, and the tail off another. I am too clumsy :(.

Tried giving one of the horses brown hair, but the black one looks way better against the red barding. Will probably do the remainders all as black.

This is taking way too long for what was meant to be a quick and dirty bish, bash, bosh job to finish the stragglers of my old Empire army!

A few more mimics from the Forge Print's Mimic Invasion Set!

May work more on it later, but I think I should get some paint on the rest of the set first.

Forge Prints has an Adventurescapes generic fantasy game tiles and accessories KS. EB's will still be available for a few days. $65 EB / $75 pledge gets you 88-100+ pieces for their Docks, Tavern, or Alchemist's Lair set.

With a bit of luck, I might get my hellblasters done tonight.

I'm on vacation this week at the beach, but I managed to sneak in some painting time yesterday for my Imperial Fists Primarus Space Marines. Today I will get to work on my Intercessor Squad.

Uploading some images to Imgur. Going to paint some more of my OOP Wave Serpent and perhaps make some more progress on my terrain.

Cheers,

CB

Finally got a decent day outside to base coat my Stormhammer conversion...

Converting an Old One Eye tonight!

Started to paint a small pile of 15mm scale sci fi stuff today. Should be a nice change of pace from 28mm napoleonic fantasy.

Packed up three boxes of models or bits for trade. Fixed a few blocked images.

Cheers,
