The_Chaplain Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 TITH I... ...was diagnosed with Carpal Tunnel. As bad as that diagnosis is, I'm glad it wasn't something worse. I'm determined to not let it stop me from hobbying and posting here on the B&C, and looking for a silver lining in all this-- at least I have a medical excuse for getting an airbrush to paint now, haha.

Interrogator-Chaplain Ezra Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Today I determined I am forever cursed to spill every wash pot I buy. I have yet to not do so. Cover the table with a plastic sheet, and don't put the pot on a paper towel. If you spill any wash, you can still use it, if you act before it has a time to dry up. Saved most of a spilled wash that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firepower Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Today I determined I am forever cursed to spill every wash pot I buy. I have yet to not do so. Actually looks kinda cool in the center. Like...butterscotch slag. Today I looked wearily at my 10 Neophytes in progress. Damn me for painting their heads first, 'cause now they glare right back. God I hate painting pants!!! Hopefully there will be a follow up post later today proclaiming victory against the khaki nightmare I am soon to square off against. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LokisSword Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Over the weekend I found an excellent local model railway shop, but that stocks tonnes of scenery and scratchbuilding materials. So I've bought some more milliput, styrene tube and some Microsol / Microset. Today: Made some progress on painting the Deathwing squad from my Dark Vengeance box. Trying to develop a faster painting style that will enable me to actually get a force playable this year. (I haven't played a game since 1999! - 2nd Edition). I'll be putting some photos up in the WIP section soon. I also spent rather too long messing about with a side project - a Space Marine strike-cruiser built in Minecraft: And here's me in DA Power Armour (I'm working on Space Marine mod for Minecraft:) ): More to come soon! (Trying to do atleast 30 mins hobbying a day). reckoning and Uprising 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaeron Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 TITH, I put a few more things in foam as part of my tidying up process, and rebuilt a few figures who were slightly worse for wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 YITHI lost a game to a unit of Lychguard. A 1000 point army. Not a very good 1000 point army. But still, a whole army. Defeated by a unit of seven sword-and-board Lychguard led by Orikan. I am in shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonlover Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 If it helps, in my win I killed two Terminators and a Deathwing Knight with Cultists. That's shame right there. How the hell did you lose to that though? Did they keep reflecting the shots back? Dragonlover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 No, but a unit of S5/T5 models with 2 attacks, power swords, a 3++ invulnerable and a 4+ feel no pain save managed to get a charge off against my Repentia. The Repentia were fine for a turn (6++ rerollable with 3+ feel no pain), but once Spirit of the Martyr wore off and the priest was dead, they were in trouble... unfortunately, hey were also the only unit I really had that could hurt the Lychguard, so I had to throw my assault-focussed command squad in there as well, and back them up with a battle sister squad to keep the numbers up. That was half my army right there. Turns out that a mere 15 S3 power sword attacks, 20 S3 CCW attacks and 8 S6 eviscerator attacks aren't enough put down a Lychguard. Once Orikan went up to I4 with 4 S7 AP2 attacks, it was pretty much curtains. The fight was somewhat balanced until then - I couldn't put any wounds on her models that she didn't save or repair, but she was struggling to get through my rerollable 4++/5+ FnP (once the command squad was involved) either. Once the priests were dead, though... it all fell apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viridia Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 ...went and started to build more of the Orks I picked up for Christmas and trying to restrain the temptation to build more of the War Wyrms rather than undercoating and then assembling like I decided to in the first place. May as well spend time sorting out the greenskins for the latest codex since it's all been marine fever lately. And decided to sort out my HH book collection. Everything must be in order of release!

Stoic Raptor Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Today in the hobby, reinforcements arrived! Another DA Tactical squad, a trio of Ravenwing bikes and a Librarian. I plan to convert a Librarian and a Chaplain to ride on two of the bikes. Also, I kitbashed and magnetized a plastic DW Knight into Grand Master Belial, and finished painting one of my DW Terminators. Got a lot done on my day off!
