Brother Sefiel Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Continuing more air support today. This time it's a Valkyrie for transporting an Inquisitorial retinue.

Captain Antonius Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Yesterday in the hobby I tried to make a two piece mold to recreate some resin scout legs. First half....awesome! Second half...not so much. Didn't use enough mold release agent and the mold glued itself together. Ugh! Surgery was required to extricate the legs. Maybe today I'll get this right.

Dragonlover Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 TITH, two new players recruited! Admittedly, one of them went with Tau, which is gonna be interesting when it comes to teaching the game, but the other picked the Wolves, so that's nice and easy.

CommodusXIII Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Today I realized that I've been involved in WH40K for over half of my life.

Grand Master Laertes Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Today I realized that I've been involved in WH40K for over half of my life. Today Commodus XIII made me realize that I've been involved in WH40K for two thirds of my life.

FashaTheDog Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Today in the hobby, the above two made me realize that thanks to my grandmother getting the eight year old me into this game, I too have been playing this game for a considerable chunk of my life, in may case just over three quarters of it (26 years). I've been playing this game for longer than some of the people I play have been alive. I might need to celebrate with a Warlord titan.

Dragonlover Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Just over half my life for me. The crazy thing is it's only been the last couple of years that I've been in the right place mentally and financially to put the plan I've had since about six months after starting into effect.

Jacinda Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Today I realized that I've been involved in WH40K for over half of my life. It was a similar realization that drove to to quit smoking for good when I turned 30. I got involved with 40K about .. what, 20 years ago or so? Yeah. Over half my life. We'll go with that. >.> <.< TITH I realized I am too old to be playing with toy soldiers. But I still do.

Carrack Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) TITH I realized that I have spent roughly 1/40th of my life in the hobby. 1. I'm old :) 2. I'm a novice 3. I can easily see myself playin and painting decades from now, I'm having that much fun with it. A win here or there would help though.

Stoic Raptor Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) I've been playing 40K since Rogue Trader - so 27 years? Still (just) over half my life - and probably all your life for many 40K players. Today in the hobby, I picked up a box of Black Knights so that I can have five bikes in my command squad (and replace one that I used for an IC conversion) and I am assembling my Deathwing Knights squad so that I can start my ETL vow. I will have 1500 points to paint up, and more available if I get done early!

Aqui Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Today in the hobby, I finally started painting models for my 30K army.

Skalpynock Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Today in the hobby, I realized I've spent more than half of my life wanting to begin in the hobby but only having the ability and will to read the fluff. I have as well found the rest of my bits box, which might result in an ETL pledge.

Carlson793 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 TITH, I did some minor ETL work (getting hazard stripes masked on my Sicaran) and got a major start on a non-hobby model project for my girlfriend (a scale model of a park from where she grew up on Long Island). Oh, and CommodusXIII and GML made me realize I've spent a huge amount of time on this hobby: just over 1/45 of my life (been aware of 40k since it debuted, but didn't pick up a model, rulebook or codex till last April/May ) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/118/#findComment-4030431 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Painted a lovely little trim on Helbrecht's cape, and a big off-white cross that I'm not as proud of.

Aqui Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Today in the hobby, I finalised my colour scheme for my ETL vow (hopefully will be able to officially start that soon). I also made a fair amount of progress with my 30K Ultramarines army. There will be an update soon, once I've added washes and touched up the models in question Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/118/#findComment-4033007 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firepower Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Today I finally busted out my new Vallejo Liquid Gold to bling up my High Marshal...a bit sloppily.

CommodusXIII Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I just tried out Vallejo's Liquid Silver and Liquid Gold on my Warlord Titan project last night! The trick is to dilute with 91%+ IPA (the stronger the better) and keep adding drops to your palette as you go. I'm very impressed by their coverage!
