Will do, If I thought I could get my counts-as wolf guard painted up by then I might pull a late entry switch but since he's literally curing with GS was we speak it might be a push for me (Well I -could- paint him Saturday) >_>

Is that whats causing the shakes?!


Voxplayer - Mini picture taking 101 tip. Take a sheet of paper (white or dark) or a shirt (light or dark) and drap them on the seat of a couch or chair. This way theres a nice gentle slope. THEN set your mini down and take a picture where all you can see is the mini, and an endless background of whatever you used for the backdrop. Presto, 10x better picture

Youll find that taking that one, single good picture, can be harder then anything paint wise you put on the mini So take my previous advice, and take like 3 or 4 of each angle. That way your sure to get a good one


And reaper, thats a badass Captain. Thats one of those I kill with my Warboss so I have the right to some SW trophies
