Enhancing the Wolf time


Levitas

Recommended Posts

So I have everything built and i'm ready to roll some dice! But all those blank plastic faces need paint, and i'm not a fan of gaming with unpainted stuff. Need some motivation!!

 

So what activities can enhance that wolfy feeling and get paintbrushes wagging. I was thinking about reading all the SW books again to inhale some fluff, or maybe just drinking the strongest ale i can find and eating raw meat.

 

Playing games like Vikings of Asgard? or watching wobbly movies such as pathfinder? Visiting wolves at the zoo...

 

What do you fellow wolves do?

well since I dont actually own a wolf, during breaks from painting I play with my husky.....then again when I come back to painting i get the strongest urge to paint my SW'S brown and white

 

Lucky!

 

I just paint to relax after a stressfull week at uni

How about sitting down with a brush in your hand and not geting up till something is painted! :tu:

 

I see your ;) , but wouldn't that seem more like penance than motivation? Just sayin'.

 

I guess so, if you don't like painting. I love it, but I tend to suffer from procrastination. So if I don't make an effort and sit down, nothing gets done. To make matters worse I have so little time between work and my studies. So no searching for a muse for me. Just good old productive discipline!

I look at the sea of plastics I have and get dis-illusioned. Another week of days off go by, and Im at work again.

 

Honestly, I have written out a step-by-step way of getting things done and at least this way things get done.

 

So I assemble a few squads with all their extras put to the side and then ensure I get them all under coated. The next week I ensure the basing is put on all of them. The next week I start painting the basic Troops with a limited pallet of colours. ETC etc etc.

 

A lot gets painted en mass and in bulk. The last part is the painting of all the shoulder pads and decalling them. The part I hate the most.

 

But this way its all done in manageble stages, I dont get burnt out, and you see large amounts done each stage.

 

No ale though, because then I will just forget it altogether.
