Soldier of Dorn Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 What is that certain something if you don't mind me asking? I'll have what he's having I... uh, I went out with a young lady I've grown rather fond of recently. Something I've never actually done before, a result of my relative youth and my general disinterest in casting my nets wide, as it may be. Gave me a good deal of confidence, started looking on things much more optimistically - even discounting the fact that things went rather well, I found myself simply grateful that I had the opportunity to do it - which is far and away from my normal outlook on things. So yeah...that's what happened. Bit off-topic, but I think it's been good for me in general. TITH I started sorting out the bits for my first challenge in the Arena. Going for a rather tactical approach to my Intercessors, which of course, is the the only proper way to approach building Raptors. Will run up to GW and purchase the necessary paints not currently in my possession this weekend. :) Semper Fortis, Teetengee and Grim Dog Studios 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/246/#findComment-4807710 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deafbok Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 TITH I attempted to make sense of list building in 8th. Nothing seems to "click" for me yet. What used to be an 1850 point force for me in 7th is now a 2700 point monstrosity with a couple of invalid builds. (Looking at you, TL plas/las Razorbacks)What's the usual level games are happening at now for points and power levels? Old list was a half/half drop pod/razorback combined arms force.And looks like my freehand-numbered Tactical squads are going to need some changes, too. Sigh. Ah well, hopeful that the changes will lead to some great stuff in the hobby!

Dolchiate Remembrancer Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 TITHI decided that my brushes have been dormant for too long. Time to show some love to my thousand sons Thrallband.

Semper Fortis Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 (edited) Looked hard and found my hobby motivation. Wheeeeeee! TITH I finished building 3 tanks: a WW Scorpius, a LR Achilles Alpha, and a Pred Executioner. My IF seige force gets some muscle. I would have primed but it was raining torrents and too humid. Tomorrow I'm stuck all day at the veterans hospital. Maybe Thursday I can get back to it if the weather improves.

Grim Dog Studios Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 TITH I finalised my 2000 point list for a DIY chapter I want to do from scratch for 8th Edition.

Race Bannon Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 TITH I got about 2 hours away from finishing my Land Raider Redeemer. Yes, I am making a sub-optimal Land Raider. I don't care, it's been in a box for 5 years waiting to get built. Magnets HOOO!

Gorthaur Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 TITH I started building my dark imperium set, finished 10 poxwalkers, the plaguecaster, and plasma gun plague marine, also got the bloat drone half assembled. It took me a while but I cleaned every part of the models very well. I also managed to slice by thumb open (again) so now i've got a clumsy bandaid on my hand making it hard to keep assembling things. So for now i'm done for the day lol.

Reldn Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Today in the hobby, I finally got the chance to work some more on My Dark Imperium box. Working my way through the remaining Poxwalkers and then finally onto the Primaris Marines. I've also been going through my Blood Drinkers and determining where I'd like to fill in with Primaris reinforcements and just what else I need to purchase to finish out my Battle Company.

Warsmith Annüss Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 I started assembling my Primaris marines. Should have the lot done by tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get some decent weather for priming after.

Chaeron Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 TITH (and indeed recently!), I've been working on my Tech Thralls, trying to get my next batch of twenty to the same standard as the first. I've done all the cables in a range of colours, so they stand out really nicely - it's just remembering which ones are which and doing them all. I've now blocked nearly everything, so it'll then be tidying, washing and final details.

Marshal Loss Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Build a 10x heavy support squad with missile launchers for my 30k DG. Originally bought them because I thought 30k was going to 8th (lol), but the models look sick anyway.

Gen.Steiner Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 TITH I continued the task of re-doing all my army lists for 8th Edition, and discovered I had dropped enough points between editions for my 5,000 point Guard army to fit a bare-bones Banesword. So now I have to buy a Banesword.Also I fixed my metal Celestine's broken sword arm, and cut a notch in the carrying foam so it won't break again, all in preparation for going to my local GW tomorrow for some games.

Space Truckin Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 LNiTH - Had some free time after lil genestealer and wife went to sleep. Started to get the model stuff out but ended up playing DoW2 Retribuition instead. Hobby motivation is hard to come by these days. Especially when there is no chance of seeing the models in a game.

You collect, paint, and play with whatever you want!
