@horati0nosebl0wer oh wow that figure is HILARIOUS! It looks just like a supersized local Australian confectionary treat – the ‘Caramello Koala’ – if a Caramello Koala was ‘hulking out’ of course… Erm… Tactical cutlery?… 40 Republic Credits for posts and tunes.

@dawfydd nice work on the Fallen – have to confess I do find the DA one of the more interesting of the chapters. Although I’m still a bit hazy on how there can be any fallen left after 10 millennia – I know, warp timeshifting shenanigans. The Warp – it’s like nanobots for 40k, it just explains everything 🙂 Ah yeah, HG… they really need a business model that doesn’t revolve around belligerent intellectual property litigation – would love to see something actually happen… Last comics I saw were a prequel series from Dark Horse circa 2002ish? heh, for manic anime try Excel Saga – I lasted 5 episodes 🙂 A friend of mine still talks about how immersive Planescape Torment is/was. I think he still actually runs through it every couple of years. 30 Republic Credits for hobby progress and posts.

@rayzryr wow that’s dedication checking back in 3 years later – I can barely remember which paints I was using on a mini a month ago let alone remembering to do a forum update after that long. yrm mixing colourshift paints could be interesting. or chaotic. Which could also work I guess 🙂 Excellent school project! So is it going to make it back home and find it’s way onto the tabletop? Hrm, my GF is a school teacher – maybe I can talk her into some craft related mass marketed terrain sweatshop type of scam. Oh wait, child labour laws… Never mind… 50 Republic Credits for posts, tunes and misappropriating school projects 😉

@mage yeah half the stuff in the reading pile beside my bed is game related rule books (with a solid chunk of the rest being historicals which sort of counts as hobby too I suppose). Sorry, didn’t mean to create a temporal paradox with question 2 – OK, what has the current process taught you and what would you do differently next time? have you seen the new Frostgrave plastic kit? All female minis – should be great for kitbashing some more interesting warbands.

If you are looking for greatswords and are happy to proxy then check these out:

Landsknechts with Zweihanders

Kit only comes with 12 greatswords so you would need to do the other 12 up as halberdiers or pikemen (or kitbash). I’ve got a couple of these boxes stashed for future use as I never got around to adding greatswords to my Empire army, and the heavy pikemen will work a treat for Empire of Men in Kings of War if I go down that path again. If I don’t, hey more historicals 🙂 really nice work on the skintones on the goblin king too – looks very movie-realistic. 60 republic Credits for responses, posts, hobby progress and tunes.

@sundancer hope day 2 was fun and you got many games in 🙂 Was there anything particularly that you enjoyed? Aand rest assured I made it through the whole day and only thing i murdered was  few pics of bad instant coffee… 30 republic Credits for posts, tunes and photos.

@oriskany and you forgot ‘and you don’t have to spend your whole life painting so can actually get to play games instead’ 😉 Still progressing my historicals, hope to have a couple of more diverse tabletop ready forces finished by the end of the year (Yeah, ask me how that’s tracking in six week’s time)… Hope the palytesting and unit tweaking os progressing well, a great looking project.

@dawfydd striking paint scheme on the bomber. How are you finding shifting back to more of a ‘primary’ colour pallette? 30 Republic Credits for hobby progress and posts.
