Went to the gaming store and bought 8 new colors so now I finally might have all colors I need for both my Tyranid and Space Wolves color schemes. Just gotta figure out brown colors for the wolf pelts. Got 2 minor essays to write this week but hopefully I can get some more progress on the painting.

 

Also accidently got a box of Space Wolf Terminators with me ;) Maby stupid to gamble when 8th is so close but they look awesome so couldnt resist. 

TithI put a magnet in upside down on an ork power claw arm... much cussing and cutting later and it is fixed... don't do that again, and if you have a system check anyways...

 

Progress on non marines only until I get the plasticard I need for truescaling... I may have found a local source, so that is good...

Today in the hobby, I learned that my new commisioned bases for the entirety of my Imperial Fists will be ready for pickup tomorrow. And thus will begin a new chapter for my boys in Golden yellow as I begin to clean up and rebase my whole army.

YITHI Played against a farsight list (pretty balanced list, he had a storm thingie (:facepalm:  surge?), long strike, the riptide and broadside formation and a cad) with my baronial court (two crusaders and an errant) with an allied smurf detachment (sniper scouts, techmarine with some servitors and a fire raptor:devil: ) thoroughly enjoyable game much chuckling and cursing of dice ensued and the game ended with a turn four concession by the tau.

 

TITHI Begin work on some more mkIII smurfs and some tartaros termies afterwards it's on to my third set of custodes:wink: 

Today in the hobby, very much not for the first time, I've looked at all my models, sprues, blisters and boxes and seen only a monumental waste of money, time and space. Sometimes I really wish I never started the hobby.

 

(The literature - White Dwarfs, novels, army books and the like - can stay though. I don't regret buying those.)

Airbrushed six Howling Griffons vehicles. There's going to be a bit of tidying up by hand, but I think airbrushing the quartered scheme on is going to work out really well :)

Next step (after tidying up the borders between the quarters and painting the metal details): learning how to freehand the griffon emblem :wacko.:

In the last hour in the hobby, despite my misgivings over the worth of my collection, I finished priming the sergeant of my future new first Raven Guard squad.

 

The ending of the last line was brought to you by That's a Mouthful Unlimited. That's a Mouthful Unlimited: because why limit yourself to your foot?

I think we've all had these moments. But, if the hobby still engages you and makes you happy, then its all worthwhile! 

 

As for me, TITH I played a game of 8th edition! IG vs Salamanders, just using the core rules, open play, only war mission, and 80 power points. Considering doing a write-up of my findings but not sure if it would be of interest. 

TITH sold the rest of my Red Scorpions and 1Company worth of my DeathSpectres. donated half of my BL books to the local Library. Just sold off the 3 other Marine armies all I have now are all my kill teams and my large ork&nids armies which I need for various kt,sh and SW .

Hello

TITH sold the rest of my Red Scorpions and 1Company worth of my DeathSpectres. donated half of my BL books to the local Library. Just sold off the 3 other Marine armies all I have now are all my kill teams and my large ork&nids armies which I need for various kt,sh and SW . 

Sad to see this, but I'm not sure how much I'll be playing in the next edition either. Having said that, I kept my old stuff for nearly a decade without touching it - at the end of 3rd - so I'll probably still do things in the future even if I stop being involved in the 8th nonsense.

And as for nonsense:
