Possibly painting.....

I may get some mold lines cleaned up at some point to finish yesterday's project. Then I will dig through my stuff and find another model/group of models to put together. My "to prime" box is filling up fast at this rate!

Also today I am helping the FLGS expand his GW wall. More racks to mount, tons of boxes to move, and organizing.

You're gonna have to do a 'you' project next TDL...

For me, got my zombies based so today means painting those. With luck, they'll get dipped... but we'll see.

Finished my Dystopian wars ships last night. Today I will be building and painting my Imperial Bunker from the Wall of Martyrs that I got super cheap off eBay. Been awhile since I've worked on any terrain.

Slowly painting the Mansions of Madness Set, trying a kitbash/conversion to make a SM Captain with Primarch's Wrath. Possibly trying to make some custom bases for the Mansions of Madness Player Models so they look cooler and won't keep falling over.

Finished off a Gun Mage Captain Adept, Broadsides Bart and Lord Rockbottom. Sorted a box of stuff out from under my bed into a box with a lid, finding a contsiner with 2nd ed Eldar and SM in, including Tigurius, Corbulo and Mephiston, as well as other bits and pieces.

Going to games day, obvoisly.

Finished 2 more miniatures, I'm 3 out of 4... tonight I hope to do some decent progress on the last one so I'm done by tomorrow.

Painting my Word Bearer terminators, then its of to order the shoulder pads from Fw

Not going to my club due to my college having decided to be jackasses and putting the maths functional skills directly after lunch, thus meaning that all of us whom have brains have to stay in an extra coupe of hours and meaning that I have to miss my club.
That and the fact that tomorrow I have college so even if I could go I could not stay for it all

Glued down some objective markers (those are so fun to do between units) and picked out all the bits and pieces to make my 20 sternguard from. Tonight will be painting 'stealers.
Tomorrow: priming tanks and painting 'stealers.

Finishing off my 2nd Ed Epic battle report. Only managed to get movement phase of 1st turn done last night due to a combination of faffing about trying to find the WD article with the Firelord rules in, not being able to find the Lord of Battle datacard (it turned out to be right in the middle of the Renegades book - teach me to look properly) and screaming children not wanting to go to bed on time!

Sweetness Will it be up on your blog today you think?

Don't know. I will try and see if I can finish it today. The main challenge is that I am playing Tyranids for the first ever time in Epic and they have a fair few non-standard and esoteric special rules which means a certain amount of flipping through the Army book and cross-referencing stuff. It makes the game a bit slower than I would normally take to complete. I will at least try and finish + photo the game tonight and then perhaps write up tomorrow but we shall see.

Mostly punching out tokens and sleeving up cards for x-wing

hopefully painting the last Fire Warrior that I have with me on campus. need to go back home to prime the last 10

Magnetize them and have all the options all the time!

It's easier than it sounds, and fun too!

I suppose I need to find out how to magnetize. That would be so neat to swap them before the tournament in January.

If you make a cheater tool from a couple extra magnets and a piece of tubing it gets super easy and almost impossible to screw up. I am magnetizing my BT marines.

I apologize for my persistence, but all that popped into my head was an arm, glue a magnet, magnet, glue, body, and it all looks terrible in my head.

I suppose I'm imploring you guys for a "how to" or an example or something.

It's easy, just make sure the polarity is right and you're set. Drill carefully.

Select what size you want. 1/16" magnets should work, but 1/8", probably use 1/8" deep though. Drill a whole in the arm and the body so they line up (may take some practice). Make sure the polarity lines up and glue them in.

I have a tool I bought from a dakka member who had a site selling magnetizing kits, who has since stopped doing it (a shame because his tutorials were the best). Each side of the rod has a magnet of the opposite polarity. Makes it really easy to make sure you don't screw up... too often.

Inking up some zombies from mantic and the plastic nurgle hero from GW as a 'revenant king'. Last 10 of a group of 30. Hoping to get 40 skeletons, 5 cav and six wraiths done as well before hallowe'en.

Oooh undedz for Halloween, good idea!

Today its the second half of my zombies, hopefully they get dipped tonight.

Either painting my Mansions of Madness or my Cryx. And also slowly gluing and assembling a massive artillery piece to be used as terrain.

Conitnuing work on my Imperial Bunker and working on my Dystopian Wars EotBS Aircraft Carrier. The Carrier is one of my favorite models from that line.

Gonna finish the remaining WoW miniature, it's missing the highlights and pretty details, or die trying, celebrate and probably not touch a brush for a week. Fething board game minis

Collected my second Sedition Wars shipment from the Kickstarter. Going to photo a few figures tonight, update a couple of threads, and do some wash work on my Mangler.

Complete my 3rd test model for my Canadian guard army. I am going to paint an autocannon now that I have my infantry and officer style finalized.

Playing a little 40K - i give my opponent the choice of Orks, DE or Daemons to face, and go with his choice.

Probably painting later.

Finally finishing the paint on my Devilfish if all goes well.
damn thing isn't even in any of my lists...

Assembling by basilisk
Slowly

Finished my Drones

Pics will be up in a few days in my gallery.

Probably something DE next, but not tonight.

I basecoated 2 Hive Tyrants, 3 Carnifexes and a ripper swarm. I also scratchbuilt two more mycetic spores! They are very gooey looking.
