I've been looking at making elves that are raggedy rather than stylish

Like the elves in Terry Pratchett's Discworld. The one that specifically jumps to mind is The Shepherd's Crown.



I'm building (assembling, repurposing) a table on which to set up terrain so I can play some games in my garage.

Man, that just reminds me that i still haven't read the shepherd's crown. i have trouble reading the last of anything, and with that... it's just so final. But i am thinking of somewhat more unsettling elves, yeah. not as sadistic as pratchett's elves, maybe.

Basing, transfers and varnishing on a squad of Assault Intercessors.

Finished two old Necromunda Scum models, working on an old metal Bounty Hunter.

Painting up my dread. It's still a miniature, but it's so much bigger than a space marine. It's soaking up so much paint!

I finished my Abberants and Abominant. Continuing on the rest of my GSC now.

Magnetising models for a magnetic case, which is going well so far although I could see it get pricey pretty quick if I wanted more of my armies magnetised for future figure cases.

today i am searching the internet over for random bits so i can make the most of my deathmarks/immortals kit XD. Instead of finding parts i need however, I ended up windowshopping forgeworld for things i dont need that i can't afford! XD

I'm painting up a dang goblin wizard!

Working on my Ossiarch Bone Reapers. I have 5 Kavalos Deathriders and four Motrek Guard to finish before I can pick up a Leige-Kavalos and the Bone Tithe Nexus, and I have my 1000pt force finished.

About to start painting up an ages old WHFB giant (from 5th ed I think. He's not a "gargant", plastic, nor even all that giant nowdays...) I recently found in my storage & put to use in my Behemet army.
Tonight the runt earned his paint. He killed Skarbrand, stuffed 2! Mighty Skullkrushers into his bag, AND survived the battle!
He also gets a proper name.

Painted yet another 10 Termagants, finishing the 30 regular Fleshborer unit. That's a total of 46 Gaunts painted in about 2 weeks! I'm pretty damn proud of myself for that because horde units like that are always boring and tedious and I managed to complete them all and not get bored to death!

That makes it 2 full units of 30 (one Fleshborer, one Devourer), plus 25 more with Fleshborer from the old-school models!

I'm out of primer now though, so I'll dig and see what's already primed but not painted. Or shop for some primer (shops are still more-or-less closed still here, so we'll see about that).

Bounty Hunter finished so here he is with the two Scum.

Freelancer Knight for Mordheim. Will prime when it gets warmer.

Not gonna remove the chain at the back that usually pull the altar?

Worked on pining some old metal figures arms onto torsos and weapons shields onto platforms.

Huh. That's a good catch. Part of me likes the idea of removing it, the other part of me likes the idea of attaching something to it.

Fighting the flu while making some test bases for my sisters.

Finished building an incomplete Rogue Trader metal Tyranid Warrior. Was missing his sword arms so I gave him some from the 2nd edition metal Warriors with some greenstuff to match the textures on it. Gonna use him as a Prime for my 2nd edition plastic Warriors.

Yesterday, I started to assemble Necron Warriors from 2 boxes. Takes time...

Could be attached to a prisoner, that'd be pretty cool. I mean justice might be in a knight's scabbard but profit can be in the errant's hands if he brings in a wanted man.

I finished my Traitorguard aswell as the corresponding CSM warband,that was the reason to start the blog, and now i am making pictures for the final huzzah before i throw myself in the next Chaotic project

Scratch-built a twin-linked stubber for a scenario:



Now to build the small tower that's going to house it.

"A mighty battle to avenge us. Our ancestors gather to assist us."

I bought some Legion Phase II Troopers on a whim. This guy here is named Utu, after the Maori concept of reciprocation, or in cases of wrong done to you, revenge.

Building 10 Lychguard with shields to run with my various Necrons choppy Lords.

After that I have to write up 2 lists: an undead list for AoS & a WWII desert British force for Flames of War.

After modifying a necron warrior to prove the concept of adding the deathmark gun and head (via magnets), I assembled my first magnetized Immortal (for just gauss and tesla). Tricky, and I'm going to have to find a good visual que to keep gun arm/model pairings, but proof of concept established. Time to get on with the rest of his squad.

Assembled and began painting my Callidus assassin and starting painting the head of my old Company Master Remiel I did like years and years ago now.

Working on my Daemon Prince and LoC. The space motif is repeated throughout my Thousand Sons force.

Have a look at the blog in my sig for more.

Very nice Valkyrie.

Pined some Eldar Support Platforms and Kal Jerhico and Skabbs.

A quick game of Blackstone Fortress.

Our adherance to the rules was diabolically awful but do we care? Naaaaaah. Taddy & Pie did it again; buring the heretics and winning the blessed tequila for the 3rd time.

Started work on an old metal Orlock Gang Leader and Ganger when I should be working on the monthly challenge models.

Cheers,
