OH-I Wanna get out of here

Disappointed I only account for 3/4 of the front page models. I guess we should let Tides have his moment in the sun too.

Is that a HEAVY STUBBER on that Knight?

ANYWHO!

After several hours of chatting with the tech guy, I am pleased to announce the official launch (OFFICIALLY, now) of my website!

http://www.rollinallones.com

So go ahead, have a peek and poke around
Little warning, I've noticed the galleries are a bit slow, currently- especially on mobile! Probably the subject of a future upgrade!

If there are any issues or errors you guys encounter, shoot me a message or post something up here!

Much appreciated!

The site looks really beautiful! For some reason, it is very slow to load the tabs even on my PC with a wired ethernet connection, though - both in chrome and explorer. I think you should have the tech guy fix that, as it could deter people from really following through on seeing the full galleries and then reaching out to you about a commission, etc.

But the look/appearance is fantastic

GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZ. Putting a heavy stubber on these things is TOTALLY OP. What the hell? *table flip*

It actually kind of is, since you can target a different unit than the main gun to shoot at, and then assault that unit.

That's what my buddy does with his. He'll shoot the big guns at stuff he wants dead, and shoot the stubbers at targets he wants to get tied up with...

Edit: Ramos, noticed a small 'grammar' error on the rates/rules page. I can let you know what I find. Website looks amazing so far

@RT: Thank you! Its nice to finally have a presence online (You know, outside of my presence online! )
Now is it the entire site that is slow for you or just the galleries? If its just the galleries, it seems that that is a common complaint and may need to be revisited soon.

@Alf: Sure, lemme know what's up. Its very likely I missed stuff.
====================


Today I got the FW Knight all built and pinned. Everything is sub-assembled and cleaned and ready to prime just as soon as it stops being monsoon season around here.

One thing I noticed about this thing... its HUGE.




Really huge. Here it is next to the plastic Knight:

Saw the word in boobie in Dakka notifications.

Was disappointed. How could you Giraffe? I expect this type of teasing to come from the members of the League...

Ahem, sorry. Where was I?

Your website looks great. Instantly my eye was drawn to the works section on your main hub.

Hello hello!
So while I work upon the Magnum Opus that is the BoobKnight (TM), I felt I should do a little announcement.


Every year since I started taking on commissions, I've run an annual prize giveaway to reach out to the community and get a little bit of a buzz going. Its about that time of year again, but rather than the same old song and dance, I thought it might be as good a time as any to fully celebrate the new website!

As part of the celebration, I will be running a super giveaway! This time, its an ARMY!
Specifically, a brand new Mechanicus Army! Included in this are 10 Skitarii Vanguard, 5 Sicarian Ruststalkers, and a Sydonian Dragoon, all painted to our highest standard!

HOW TO ENTER
To enter, just go to rollinallones.com and click “Contact”. Fill out the form on that page with the subject “AdMech Army Giveaway!”, shoot it off to us, and you’ll be entered into the drawing!

CONTEST ENDS APRIL 30, 2015!

Thanks again, guys!!


Oh! And if anyone encounters any bugs, errors, or any other general web-related issues, let me know. The site is still young, and we are doing our best to work all of the kinks out as fast as we can!

The sites looking good Ramos but you really need to do something to improve loading times on the gallery's. It took ages just going to the home page from clicking on your website link above, enough to discourage people I think.

On the bottom of the page I believe you need the actual copyright symbol as well as the wording, not sure though.

I challenge everyone to leave the most outrageous, random, rambling rant of a message to Ramos that they can. I did!

Thanks to everyone who's already entered. Loving the messages Im getting along with some of the entries, haha! Know that you're making my day with the jokes (and legalese "threats" from some )

@Gir: Odd that the front page is slow to load... Hmm
Slow galleries seem to be a bit of a common issue from what I've been hearing. Gallery upgrades will probably be on the shorter list of site upgrades, then. In the mean time, I guess we'll just have to manage- Sorry!!

@Gits: Love it xD

@WM: I guess its a good thing that my contest is outside the realms of Dakka, then, eh? Otherwise you might get your 40986 entries as per the SwapMod Aquatic animal rules.

@Alf: Hey you are just as likely to win as anyone! I dont do favorites (but I do take bribes)

@Verviedi: Well I know exactly which entry is yours then

@Ice: And lovely it was!


Thanks so much for all your support, guys!!

=====================================

So yesterday, I was surprised by a knock at my door- When I answered it, I was greeted by an exhausted postman with a box nearly as large as he was!

Looks like some new projects are in



Why yes indeed! A gargantuan crate full of models from our very own Gitsplitta!
As part of his re-organization and cleaning efforts, he's sent me a number of rather large (and FUN) projects.

2 Storm Talons
An extended Storm Raven (both to be painted up in MW Penitent scheme)

2 Knights
A Knight Lancer (both to be painted in House Taranis colors)

And finally, a Storm Eagle to be painted in Emperors Children colors!

Also included in the box were a few bags full of extra Adepticon swag that I'll document later (after I find some room!).


ON TO THE PROJECTS!

First up in the box of many things, Twin Talons and a Storm Raven!


I quickly set upon them and started building.

Wow that is one big box, really looking forward to seeing the Emperors Children Storm Eagle and the Lancer.

I am nearly unhinged at the prospect of these models getting painted... especially the Knights as I'm going to pair them with a new Skitarii army (which I'll be working on in the mean time). Just can't wait.

It will be exciting to see both parts of the army being painted at the same time and then joined once finished.
