Subject: Re:Imperial steampunk..."hold the line" heroic objective marker
best line... he once had an akward moment just t seehow it felt... LOL
and now i have to talk about something serious... it isn´t often that we get to see how a mind can dwindle away.... and i got the prove... i today went to the customs office and got me the package that dave sent me due to the first terrain building competition... and no sane mortal man could send me this much of so much.... to use the term amount... would be an understatement... to say i was full of joy whilst unpacking the contens... would be cutting it way too short...
the following pictures are the living proof that the man dave is finally loosing the last strands of his sanity.... but see for yourself...:
this is the GW and other companies bitz related suply drop courtesy of dave...oh my...ooohhh my.....ooooohhhhh....you get my idea here...
seee???? i inherited the fist airbrush of dave... and we all saw how much this spurred on his works...i am literally speachless about that item... currently i am without a compressor.... but plans are afoot to cope with that...
i already own some I- core stuff already and the metal ones i think are very cool... i think son these will be for my own catachan force then...the sprues will be then for my sons army... with these shields they will be a fitting addition for his police force...
i gotta ask where from are these white sprues ? the street light and the sign post... totally awesome details for a cool terrain piece.... gosh i do have to make lists now to cope with that overflowing possibilities for projects...
has anyone any idea what a treasure these lanterns of GW free standing and hanging...the later in two different options are??? i feel not gifted .... i feel like i got totally iced over like a cake!!!!
gargolyes??? really??? and those nice little torches.... can i get a bit of envy here???
the black pieces of resin are still a puzzle to me.... i see they are made from resin... but what are these... i am sure i only need to think about for a sec to come up with cool ideas... but really? where do these originate from??? and those rounded wallsection.... verrrry cool looking!!!
then: amo for biggguns, commander pieces even from the big tanks... whole moly! and my topmost favorite part so far....: the stairs.... man! this will look awesome without even trying to do so too hard
and if that wasn´t enough he included a whole frigging tank even!!! how bad ass is that i ask ye? that blue wonder of a wheeled chimera stand in will go directly to my sons army the freedom fighters too as i see it fitting right in to the modern and light and quick acting army of his...
THEN! when i finally got out all that shown above contens of that package... and thought christmas was finally over... i looked into the cardboardbox (which was totaly efficiently packed to the fullest i assure you) and discovered that this man... this man that seems to be only able to give with both hands stretched out and giving aplpenty... included the following hidden suply drop....sheats and sheats of plasticcard and even granny grating too boot... i was even then to a point of hysterics already...and i think he did that on purpose to send me even further down that line of sanity that i crossed due to chear mass of....well everything^^
RAW materials:
two sizes of granny grating....
embossed plasticcard...
and extra handy plasticcard suply that never comes in vain
and finally.... the =]_= -logo.... gosh i need to find a suitable piece to use this on....(and i still haven´t found a good place for that aquilla you gave me oh so many months ago....)
or to put t in another way..... many thank you´s to you mate.... that was christmas for sure...i had so much fun going through the contens... my hairs were on end all over through the entire time!!! ...
thought that was all? no way.... because even all of this it seems wouldn´t be enough for dave... ha! tomorrow i´ll show you part two with the playmobile extravaganza! my kids were too much enthusiastic about everything that i couldn´t make any pics so this feat is planned for tomorrow^^....so stay tuned....
and dave.... say laurie she has to hug you as i am not able to do so from that far away... maybe she could give you a bro-hug and say thank you my friend with a deep voice
You are most Welcome Vik! Merry Christmas!) Trust me brother, I won't miss any of it at all. Ladygeek will testify to that fact!
The Airbrush is not part of the contest prize, it's just a gift from me to you bud! Learn on it, enjoy it, then one day when you upgrade to a better model, pass it along, It'll be the "Karma 150 Trainer"
I figured the VOID minis with riot shields and LAV tank would fit nicely with Felix's army, that's why I sent them to you, to retrofit and reuse for that purpose, or when he is old enough, let him, whatever
The Resin walls are Armorcast,
http://armorcast.com/store/index.php I got a bunch of these a few years ago dirt cheap, they weren't selling in the FLGS, taking up space, so I bought everything they had for like $80
I knew you'd find a use for all the raw materials too, and since you now have a nice little stash of strips, tubes, and rivet rods, I though you could use some sheet stuff.
Automatically Appended Next Post: Just get me a picture of the kids playing with the stuff, before they get bored with it..That'll be thanks enough!

Subject: Imperial steampunk...AWESOME suply drop courtesy of dave aka dsteingass...
yes LDD... that was a way cool drop of suplies.... this will last quite a big time!
and dave... i like the idea of a Karma 150 Trainer! that is a brilliant idea!
Ladygeek will testify to that fact
... i wont ask her as i imagine her to work feverently on her dwarven army to be in a presentable state for her very fist P&M blog here *nudge, nudge, nudge, wink, wink, wink*
and i bet that felix will be quite amazed about that tank... i already told him so... but being still a freshman at school since the 13.th of august he is a bit hazzy when he gets back from school around 16:00 hours... for kids his age it is quite an amount of tie of hard work.... mind you i am quite depleted too^^
oh...and i was particularly touched by your german letter for the boys... at first i translated the english one for them... then i saw the german version... that was something very special to us! thanks onkel dave!!! and i will get some pics... wont link them here tho... as i am a bit akward with pics of my kids on the net... you never know who is watching.... it is truly the end of innocence in our time...
but i tell you this... they wont get bored with these... they saw the boat and the car... and they literally fell over the place... then we assembled the still unassembled figures... and even my wife was fully with us on the fun^^.... that was a most happy family event!
thanks for the info on the sprues... indeed the tamiya stuff will be a nice thing... a vague idea is already creeping up in my mind^^ i bet that this wold make a nice objective marker....
I'm just glad you will get some use out of the stuff, I still have more of all of it..really, I won't miss it

I haven't found a suitable use foir the League Logo Dave sent me either, however, I am looking into designing an entire Space Marine Army based on the -=][_,=- instead of the inquisition. I also see now, having seen the contents of Vik's prize box, that Dave is more of a mad genius then we knew in that he has apparantly tailored each prize box to that individuals needs and proclivities. I got things most usable for vehicles and such, Vik got Terrain like items mostly. Well played Dave, well played....
