Today in the Hobby I... completed the preliminary designs to turn these into something rather interesting for my studio to start producing.

Can anyone guess where I'm going with this before I make my next post to reveal what I've come up with?

Ok, perhaps a little obvious. You are correct! I had an idea for a Void Shield Generator a while ago, but my original idea was too large. This concept aims to bring it down to something my small studio can handle.

After creating a copy of the base components in Solidworks I set about creating a design that will benefit from repetition. A few components will be cast once, but the main structure will be created by repeating the parts three times to create the final assembly. This will help considerably to cut down on the build time to make this real. I hope to start work on it once I get a few other things sorted away over the next few weeks. See Legion Rising for a more in depth update in the near future on this and other projects on my real and digital workbenches.

Wow, colour me interested!

Subtle, that thing looks awesome! I've always loved those plasma balls ever since I was a kid and saw them in the mall. Such a cool concept!

 

TITHI fixed the broken bits on the Queen Bee and broke out the lightbox to take a few more pics. I've been meaning to do so for a while because my last batch were too crappy for White Dwarf. I've since learned how to composite photos to get a consistent depth of focus on large models so hopefully these do the trick. I'll be bringing the model to the Warhammer store opening up a couple hours from me this weekend so they can display her in the cases there, hopefully. If you want to see her in person you can come to Iowa, people. ;)

Wow, let us know which month QB will be appearing in WD and I will try to snag a copy!

 

TITHI, I used my amazon voucher to buy some modelling supplies.

 

Army painter insane and psycho brushes, a big bag of corks and some micron pens. Want to see if the blue 0.1mm microns will be good for doing facial tattoos on my wolves.

Today in the hobby, I met with Naminé to play a 1K Sisters versus Sisters game. It wasn't completed due to me having to be back to where I live to pick up my car from the Adeptus Mechanicus Garage. It was an interesting game (rolls of ones all over the place and better rolls when they were statistically unlikely! :laugh.: ) and has reinforced my affection for this faction :happy.:

 

I didn't record a log of what happened (Naminé did that - I intended to, but me being me, got caught up in the game rather than the details), so there should be a battle report of sorts soon :smile.:

 

Thanks Naminé! :thumbsup:

I wonder what caused two orders of the Adepta Sororitas to fight to the death.

 

I played a battle today myself, and it had this mythical exchange:

 

"If your chaos lord rolls a six, he can precision oneshot my captain with his combi-melta."

 

*opponent rolls a six*

 

None of my characters got to use their mastercrafted weapons today. :biggrin.:

I wonder what caused two orders of the Adepta Sororitas to fight to the death.

That is uncertain :wink: However, it might be that one Order saw a relic on the planet that just had to come back with them. Of course, the other Order probably had the same idea... :laugh.:

 

Also, Today in the hobby, I decided to at least build my two new Penitent Engines, only to find on of them has an arm broken at the elbow. I've just finished sending an email about it. Rather a downer to what has been (mostly) a good day :sad.:

Just another episode of 'real sisters of terra'...

 

Yith i spent most of the day painting for an upcoming game. I'd be soooo much more productive if i didn't have to work. [sigh]

TITH I finished the legs, body and pulse driver array on my Ta'unar, complete with pins.

 

I also got blinded my the bling, of opening the box of a MG Hyaku Shiki, stabbed myself in the thumb, painted some stardrake, died of heatstroke 3 times and pondered doing a marine army of some sorts...

TITHI Grabbed some more nuln oil for my city board, got up to the first coat of base metals on my praetor and finished base coating the las two invictus suzerains in glorious smurf blue:laugh.:

NITHI I'll have to do all of the fiddly base metal bits on the invictus suzerains:furious: dang those fiddly bits
