After along while away fro many painting I'll start real easy.

One single mini, High Elf mage converted for RPG.

I know it's trivial but that mini sat unopened for 4 months.

lol don't type in the quote fields, cause I looked at that and went wtf? he just quoted me and that's it.


yeah I am going to do a test squad of IG this month, also a test Carnifex. probably going to be doing a lot of stripping this month lol.


I did a guard army last summers vows which used a WW2 german Flakton (sp?) pattern, but many models were old metal cadians and like 10 year old Leman Russ's so i sold them over christmas and used the money to buy all new IG. so 100 or so Guardsman to build and like 9 vehicles....    so gotta pick my colors!

Not much of an update, but I finished one of the night lords. I'd also like to add a Hellhound to my vow. :)

Mr.Squid
Maybe the regiment consists entirely of Ninjas who were orphaned by Dark Eldar slavers. With a score to settle, these black clad night assassins fight against their hated parent-murderers with laser shurikens and untold ferocity.

Well, I guess there's a first time for everything...

For 40K I'll do:
Forge World Basilisk & Hellhound (when they're delivered)
Steel Legion squad

and for Babylon 5 ACTA I'll paint:
3 Omega-class Destroyers
1 White Star (when it's delivered)
strip and re-paint a fourth Omega and two Hyperions

Everything I already have is primed only (besides the ones I'm re-painting).

I'll change my vow.  I won't re-paint the three ships, but instead I'll do another Steel Legion squad.

lol, i have to re-primer, the stupid stuff feels like sand paper (just the humidity, i hope ???) and it didn't cover a thing. my cannoness is just drying from her matte varnish. i just need all of those other freeking models.
Inquisitor and retinue-  $34
imperial guard to make IST's- $30

the beating i will get from my friends from spending so much on this hobby-  PRICELESS
