It’s Sunday evening, and for most that’d mean work tomorrow. But for me it’s Saturday night. I’ve taken my young ‘un home, and had my dinner. Time to catch up…
@evilstu Ancient Red Dragon vs lvl 13 characters almost did go poorly for everyone not Ancient, Red and Dragon…
Two out of four of the party attempting to hide while the other two attempted to redirect his attention through flattery and deception… and part way through my character failed his hide check and was spotted by the Dragon!
Through some sweet diplomacy and playing on the dragon’s greed and vanity, we were able to draw it away to another location… directly into the crypt of the Lich that had sent us into the lair of the Dragon! Needless to say… we didn’t hang around to see who survived the fight…
@evilstu your 3D printing experiments are interesting! What kind of a printer do you use? How easy/ difficult have you found getting a hold of such devices here in Oz?
Regarding that experiment: Seee now, that’s where all these investigators and occult battlers are going wrong… just feed Cthulhu a hefty dose of Ecstasy, it’ll be all hugs and dancing. No more end of the world nonsense!
@biggabum hey mate, glad you’re well, and I hope your wife improves quickly!
Yeah, I’ve had those Elves for a while. I figured I’d get around to them some time! You know how it is, I’m sure ?
A table cloth on the dining table? Well, one must have Some standards, otherwise what separates us from the animals??
Great battle report!
@minigiant ace work on that project! A real kit-bash and conversion to produce something truly unique! A little daunting if you ask me, but inspirational work ?
@querion I like the start of your orc skin colour. The contrast with the red and blue works really well too.
@woldenspoons hi! Your Nurgle lads there are looking suitably gribbly.
@mage that wizard turned out great. The way you’ve picked out all the little trinkets about his person, nicely done! The purple smoke effect is very cool too.
How cool are those GW objectives? Have you seen the new set they’ve produced for Nightvault? I’m really liking what you’ve done with those markers. Especially the giant head and the tomb, you’ve given them a hint of story just with the effects you’ve used.
Friday night I spent rebuilding some of my Elves:
Hopefully I’ll be able to get these guys done, I want to get some of the other minis stripped. Then move them on as a whole group into the painting stage. I may need to purchase a couple more old GW horses. If any of you (ok maybe not you @minigiant) have a couple stashed that you aren’t using, I’d be willing to purchase. Now I’m going to put the Weekenders on and keep working.
Hi, nice to meet some people I didn’t know. 0/.
Lots of hobby this weekend all round. Good stuff. For myself my Gellerpox Infected are getting near to finished. And they are looking super gribbly.
@limburger and @biggabum a global superhero campaign would be the death of me! But I’d love it.
@mage love the purple smoke. What’s your process for it? Asking for a friend. ?.
Now for my updated pictures.
@woldenspoons Good basecoats. Bring up the contrast and those should pop quite nicely.
@limburger Aha! We see that you don’t see the Ork Kommandos. Who ever heard of camouflage wearing orks… especially when its purple (so you can see them better… ork logic)?
Got the base made and I’ve put in my order with Secret Weapon to have a bag of spent shell casings dispatched along with one of their Bags o’ Crap and a tshirt. I still need to finish the green stuff for join filling as pinning the warboss was a little imprecise. Once done with that and with shells on base we’ll have a greenskin “reddy for sum right proppa krumpin on zoggin humies”.
Just typing that reminds me of how much fun these guys are. I might just pick up some Stormboyz as a complimentary unit to my Zagstruk display for competition next year. I’m debating on hitting up Armorcast for their burst effects for this as well (one project leads to another).
Assembly continues on the Elves.
Some problems had to be overcome: the sword I was trying to build from bits didn’t want to stay together.
I remembered that I’d used that sword on another Elf conversion years ago, so dig it up and returned the sword to its original owner.
It worked much better. I then had another Elf that needed weapons… Kingdom Death to the rescue!
Slow progress, but progress ?
This is where I am at the moment. Fifty Fenriders have been built, minus heads on 25 of them as I wait on a big order from Puppetswar. The Bigger bases in the middle will be used for my Tow Guns (Heavy Weapons Teams)
I started toying with the idea of a fancier head dress for the mounts of my command squad (I already knew my mounted commissar conversion will). What do you think?
