Do it! My problem isn't that I am terrible at updating, it is that I barely work on models so I have nothing to update!
Better than my problem, which is trying to get people to comment on a historical-game blog! Seriously considering renaming my FoW army blog as "BLUE ULTRAMARINES 40K MATT WARD DRAIGO DEATHSTAR" just to get some fething comments on the damned thing
...or you could put a link in your sig so we know that it is a thing!
.
Well, thanks very much for the prompt mate have added a sig, and also for the comment on the blog!

Today I need to base coat a marine, assemble a painted marine and dry brush 20 gobbos. If there is time, I'll be making a start on highlighting the million tiny panels on my Aleph Asura.

That sounds fun, have you posted any WIP pics?
I'll be doing a little work on my rust & corrosion practice pieces, then off to work & then on to begin the Thanksgiving travels.

Stamping my feet in frustration while everyone else around here seems to be getting their shipping notifications for deadzone!
Also, burning money on Miniature Market's black friday sales, damn deals are bad for my wallet!
Additionally, I rebased 10 corporation marines to clear acrylics, may do a few more after a bit. Still eying my extra steel warriors too, they build and paint so fast.

I think I'm going to start one soon. I've been looking through a bunch lately, and as much as I paint (notice I said as much, not how well) I would have almost daily updates.

Suffice to say, my life expectancy decreased not before I was done, but I was 'content' with the results.
I'm building up a small points 600 army for a doubles tourney coming up, luckily I managed to get together with a guy playing Praetorians, and in writing my list it looks like I'm going for an Al'Rahem/light infantry theme subconsciously no matter what I do. I've decided to flesh out my otherwise currently bland IG into a reconnaissance/scout regiment, also planning to use German WW2 style twig/bush camouflage on the helmets.
Painted some dudes today. Unsure whether to use a slightly-orangey brown as a secondary armour camo, or to go full out and do something like this to avoid just painting what looks like Kasrkins:

Wishing I had bought the new technical paints yesterday....specifically the oxide and rust paints. All the shops are closed today for football and face stuffing. I will still put more paint on the foam core DIY ruins I made a week ago. A four piece set I am calling the Reichstag for now. Looking pretty sexy so far.

I am The Fury. The flames of my rage will incinerate you. I came back from space. As I returned, I had one vision. The world set ablaze. And do you know what I saw there? (he aims his flamethrower upwards and incinerates a group of bats) Fury! A great and terrible Fury at being alive. Now you're going to feel the scorching heat of that horrible blackness. |

Knight Forscale has white in him, gotta do the layering for that plus red trim and metals. Put yellow down on my junk pile now I need to decide if I wanna keep spraying or if its brush time. Almost done swapping corporation marines to their clear acrylics.

Testing out some crackle medium I got from the art supply store. It still needs to dry properly but at $15 for 250ml rather than GWs $6 for 12ml I'm already convinced I made the right choice.
I also tried out some ground pigments as a weathering powder but I'm not as happy with that (yet).

The problem with the 'vote with your dollar' response is that it doesn't take into account why we're not buying the product. I want to enjoy 40k enough to buy back in. It was my introduction to traditional games, and there was a time when I enjoyed it very much. I want to buy 40k, but Gamesworkshop is doing their very best to push me away, and simply not buying their product won't tell them that. |
