    Pledge to update this more than last week – got caught up with all sorts of things at work which took up alot of spare time…

    However i finished the american shops! and have now started the starlingrad ruined building…

    1uj

    however i ballsed up the front of this shop massively
    2uj

    and my pledge is to finish the below building and start to paint my modern miniatures
    3uj

    1. I am one of those lanyards on my keys wanker for two reasons, pulling them out of the bottom of my backpack and 2 it’s almost like a flag on them as I have a tendency to lock myself out alot! alot harder to miss as im walking out the door

    2. Tell me what ‘triggers’ you? I have been learning all about being ‘triggered’ from the SJW’s on YouTube. Learn and grow…learn and grow!

    People not moving being polite and moving to the other side of the pavement so we can both walk past each other, queue jumpers. And from my job in london, anyone holding a brolly and hitting people with it, when there is fuck all rain

    3. Climate change and ‘global warming’ – fact or fiction? presume fact but to some extent part of the wider circle of our planets lifecycle? However not a scientist over here at all. Sounds like that girl just wants to re-enact waterworld… on the plus side the atlantic is a very big area of ocean…

    @yavasa – I still have that picture of you! Unless you are not who I think you are.

    wp_20151223_19_46_51_rich

    How have you been?

    Vodka? Not really for me. I am sure the stuff over here is not anything like the stuff you drink. Have fun and don’t name it after me! 100pts.

    I do like the WM minis. Very classy. Not sure about any of the factions, but the guys with the big spherical death ray thingy. Cryx are very cool too. I have some of their minis…sort of zombie things that are wearing powerfists. Is that helpful?

    It doesn’t seem like a good idea to play @oriskany at anything. 500pts. He is going to do a Arab/Israel scenario for me to play sometime.

    Judging by that song you have been to a strip show? Lucky you. I do like them…great shoes!

    @skiptotheend – not a problem. Real life sometimes comes first and that is just the way it is. 100pts.

    Those shops are fantastic. 500pts. The pavements are really awesome. That is important, but some models don’t take that into account.

    Even I smash/break bits when i’m doing stuff. MDF is weird…it is tougher than you think, but some bits just break! If you have mucked it up too bad then you could always make a burnt-out or wrecked building. Stick a car/truck in the front…ram raiders.

    1. Well, you have an excuse. I get the ‘flag’ idea. I wore my house key around my neck until I was 35! I do have a lanyard (VIP thing) and had to wear a security version where I used to work, but I never put it around my neck.

    2. How does that happen? If they step the same way as you more than twice, or say ‘sorry’ then just say, “Don’t worry, you are a better dancer than my wife!” 500pts.

    How come some people are not polite? What sort of unbringing did they have. Even a wild Fox has manners. See, it starts small…

    London is one of those places I will only go to as a last option. I will do anywhere else to see a band, but always avoid London. I find it too busy and too impersonal. People are sharp and nasty for no reason and look at you funny if you do something for them. Some great places, but I just don’t like the feel of the place.

    3. Waterworld! I love it. 1000000pts. Someone said that it would be extra ironic if they were becalmed and had to be rescued by some hugh gas-guzzling Navy vessel. There is something behind all of this stuff. The planet does what it wants and we have no abilty to alter that. We are adding some CO2 to the atmosphere, but the last time this happened there was no industry and it still happened. It is just another cycle that things go through.

    Well, I walked the Puggos and they are totally knackered after chasing Bats behind our house! Lots of snoring.

    A great start everything. Thanks for taking the time to get started, but we do have the whole weekend ahead of us. I have the house to myself until 1900hrs tomorrow so I am sure we will have a giggle.

    Good afternoon to me! Oh well, I talk to myself all of the time anyway…the dogs are all walked-out, but we came home early as there was no breeze and the sun came out. It was roasting. We always take water and a folding dog bowl for such events. Mollie drinks from puddles like a real dog, but she did come from Hull.

    Heather has gone to her mum’s for lunch and then is wheeling her to get a new hair-do. She will melt out there. The boy is already plotting my end as tomorrows game of Infinty draws closer. I think he wants to try his PO bots, but they don’t stand a chance against the might of Ariadna. As the famous Scottish philosopher once yelled at Strathclyde Police, “Scotia ya’ bas!”

    I am fizzing like a wasp in a jar to try out the Traktor Muls. He has two hopes…none and Bob. However, I have been toying with a couple of JSA lists that are pretty nasty. I have never used the Tankos or Domaru yet and they look quite lethal.

    So, I will be messing about with the TM’s and the thickness of the paint in my airbrush. Does anyone think 12-15 PSI is too low? There are a couple of those MAS box things I want to spray then weather while I am at it.

    My dad arrived to collect Jamie for their afternoon of planning bank robberies. What are grandfathers for? They play some multi-player game where you rob banks and meth labs…at 22 I thought Jamie might have grown out of it by now. My dad did recommend a great game to me – ‘Spintires: Mudrunner’. Utterly awesome. If you have never heard of then it is just big Russian trucks driving over horrific terrain to deliver logs and lumber.

    Anyhoo, it found these in a draw while messing about in his garage.

    The cog things…not the TTCombat Forklift truck I started building this morning when nobody was awake. Speaking of the amazing TTCombat I also started to get this finished.

    IMG_20190824_121652_HDR

    I bought one to see what it looks like when put together. I want all the buildings to have them…even multiple versions. TTCombat rule.

    Mollie mutated too…

    IMG_20190824_111445_HDR

    Play nice. I’ll be here all day…how lucky are you?

    Good Morning All!

    Sorry for the late arrival. I had everything typed yesterday morning at work, and the computer ate my homework. Then had to rush off to confront some horned up civvie shit pump who was trying to get one of my female front desk workers in Accommodations into the back room. Grrr! Of course the union protected him, but I’m not through yet.

    Pledge: Battle boards blah blah! Not sure I’ll get to them this weekend. A used cupboard showed up in the garage with a few cans of paint, so that may end up being my ‘hobby.’ I’d like to work on my starship crew, and maybe build this fellow:

    mrm_dkl_jut_wht_wcf_301_000_01_medium

    I find this fellow while looking for an alternate figure to stick on my Mortis Engine. He’ll be the Death Knight commanding an undead army in my AD&D campaign.

    1. I suppose keys = status in some hindbrain sort of way. As for vaping, I’m for anything that helps people quit smoking, but I haven’t seen it work so far. People vape for a while, and then go back to cigarettes. Some obviously want to be seen vaping, to demonstrate their struggle with quitting. “Admire me, I’m trying to give up tobacco.” Oh well, the kids like it, and is a good substitute until they can afford cigarettes.

    I quit cold turkey on January 26th, 2011. Now I have a cigar (a big effing Cohiba Lancero to be exact) on my birthday and at Christmas. I smoke it like it’s good for me, and it’s like being touched by God. Insidious f*cking things. If they found an affordable replacement that wouldn’t kill me I’d be all over it.

    2. Triggers: I’ve apparently been treated for PTSD, but loud noise still sends me into a rage. Vi waits till I go outside before she even hoovers the house! I still look for my next cover when walking on trails — there are others. Must have inherited it from my dad. When I was young I remember having to roust him from a nap by shaking his foot. He’d always come up swinging, like he was still sleeping with his bayonet in a muddy hole in Holland.

    I’m not up on what everyone on the internet is doing. Do all the cool kids have ‘triggers’ now? Does it get weak people the attention they crave? Are they a self-styled marginalized group that needs a hug and a fistful of cash? Explain.

    3. Being a Canadian, I liked climate change better when it was called global warming. As luck would have it, the prevailing winds are changing and we’re spending more and more time in winter in the grips of a polar vortex, meaning we’re colder than -30c for weeks on end, with no precipitation. We’ve had a drought the last two summers; our gardens have been stunted, and the wild fruit we harvest has been cut by half. This year everything was 2-3 weeks late.

    I like mellow music when I first wake up.

    I can see I’ve got a lot of catching up to do, with some quaint moral outrage thrown in as well. It will have to wait. ‘Someone’ is holding a large paintbrush and giving me the stink eye. More later!

    @yavasa – well I think you look very handsome! 200pts. Too many burgers when you have been on the swally.

    Confession time: I have only played one of those hex games. It was called Air Cav and I played it the day GW started selling it. They broke a copy open and were one play short. Good job I am under 6 foot. Very awesome looking game.

    @ceppie – you are just 30 hours late, don’t worry about it. I was just keeping them warm until you got here! Once again there was mutterings from below stairs, but nothing I couldn’t handle. Some people need a teaspoon a cement to harden them up.

    Bollocks to that rat…can’t you just call the Mounties? Failing that, how about a good drubbing? I’ll post you a clip of the Big Man.

    That is a pretty mean looking undead(?) dude. He needs his 5-a-day.

    1. Next time I am in Newcastle I will have to get you a cigar. Non-exploding of course. 100pts. Never even touched a cigarette. Urrrgh.

    2. Over her Bonfire Night (November 5th) is a “never get out of the boat” moment for me. Fireworks = not a good time. Years ago while wandering home on the 4th of November some neds fired a rocket up the street and I dived into a neighbours garden. I never even realised it happened until it was over.

    If a sharp, loud noise happens and I don’t know it is coming then I tend to really over-react. I also find myself being hyper-alert when I am out and there are large amounts of people. Sometimes I have frozen when I see bit of junk under a car. Anything box shaped and i’m across the road sweating like Gary Glitter at a sports day.

    Funny, they never mentioned this during recruitment?

    I have only seen this crap as I was forced to stay as immobile as possible.

    3. So is it going to keep getting worse or do you think what you are experiencing is just a hiccup? We have naturally shitty weather in the north of England and I can’t say I have noticed any changes. We always have had ‘heat waves’ in the autumn and other odd things. There is not enough land for anything like you get!

    I also notice that I am as popular as a fart in a spacesuit this week?

    IMG_20190824_225050_399So put together these tonight, the Cypher Lords for Warcry. Got in my third game of Warcry togay and it was really great. Lots of tactical options in the game and it plays fast.

    Also recorded the next episode of Darker Days Radio.

     

    And yeah work wise has been good recently with initial results, while the freelance writing on Wrath and Glory is all under NDA so I can’t say much other than it’s fun to write for the rpg.
