@biggabum congrats on getting to keep all your bits! And on the new ride. Those are expensive toys, I find them to be more of a necessary evil than an entertaining diversion, but I understand the appeal that they can hold for those who are car enthusiasts. Nice wok on the Cryx! Err… I’m not quite sure that’s how you are supposed to go about making stale pizza good again… Heh, sounds like ‘GW lite’ MB products got a lot of us hooked 🙂 30 Woolong for question responses, another 20 for hobby progress. 50 total.
@horati0nosebl0wer ah cool I remember Ral Partha. Still have a few of their minis kicking around in my pile of shame 🙂 Hrm, so a multicoloured wookie army with different colourings in each quad could be worked in and called canon. Unless it’s been retconned in the last 20 minutes, I can never keep track of these things… 10 Woolong for responses, another 10 for agreeably articulate and amiable alliteration. 20 total.
@dawfydd glad you are on the mend, and that the snow is receding somewhat. I picked up one of the Knights kit as it was a) heavily reduced in a sale and b) triggered my giant robot reflex. Still no idea what I’m going to do with it. My foray into 40k extends as far as some Ork trucks and base colours being applied to a Salamander Kill Team. Doubtless it will come in handy in the future though…
My hobby progress for today:
Before:
After:
This was achieved by following the guidance and teachings of @lloyd (As Marie Kondo would have just made me throw it all out…).
So now I can at least locate which hobby projects I’ve had on the backburner for years… 🙂
@mage is that the Forge World Thorin’s Company? Always blows my mind that Graham McTavish (Dwalin) is jacked as **** but they still had to cover his forearms with prognostics to get that dwarven bulk 😀
Spent my afternoon blocking in details on the Company Champion and Long Fang packs, just got gun metal and tidy up left to go before the wash stage:
and thought I’d go back to a Forge World Tech Priest I picked up ages ago and had begun painting but just left to one side:
The robe had originally been painted Khorne Red with a wash of Druichi Violet, so all I’ve done here is paint the yoke black and add a layer of Mephisotn Red to the robe
It’s getting late (past 11pm here) but I finished the Wookies! Next, fun little specialist… still have to decide on a colour scheme for the droids.
Lasst bit of hobby for today – relaxed this evening with a mug of hot chocolate & watching Youtube vids whilst building this quite nice Gundam Astray Blue Frame kit. not the most complicated build but not the most basic either. always have a soft spot for the Gundam SEED iteration of the franchise, and the mecha designs are probably Gundam at “peak anime” 🙂
Gloin is done, pictured with Dwalin and Dori. That’s me for tonight and today. More tomorrow ?
Progress for today was stripping a bunch of old Chaos minis,
and getting the base colours on 4 foot of barbican…
Responses later on 🙂
I did a little R5-D4. Since the specialists expansions are individual sculpts my usual batch workflow does not apply. Pretty happy with the little bugger.
Greetings all!
It is Monday morning, it’s my Sunday. Now I have to fill in the rest of my weekend. Maybe I will do some hobby!
The pledge for the week:
back to DnD fortnightly starting tonight. We resume the Elven adventure we are on.
Heresy-Era Dark Angels are for painting.
Using the Betrayal at Calth box as the base.
That’s enough to keep me busy for a while ?
Some music perhaps?
