Master Commander Ajax Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 TITH I got completely side tracked and started building and painting a Rhino kit I was supposed to be saving as a treat for when I finished my Plauge Marine squad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaVolt87 Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Today in the hobby I also performed some minor tank surgery. My almost 1 yr old nephew quickly grabbed a sicarian autocannon, somehow managed to snap off the magnets on the right side. He was laughing wearing a yellow shirt as well....

Doghouse Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 TITH I had quite a surreal moment. Outside of this forum I don't really talk about the hobby to people anymore, no one really knows I post online at the local store and I rarely talk to anyone there anymore. I'm a bit of a ghost these days when it comes to interacting with people in the real life aspect of the hobby (a hobby hermit) which is a shame because I do kind of miss that and working with others a lot these days as it was always fun and provided incentive to get stuff done in the past. I went in to pick up some paints today at my local GW and started chatting to one of the staff and we got onto the subject of truescaling, he was very passionate about the subject. We briefly discussed various techniques and for the tiniest of moments, for almost a split second I so very nearly blurted out how I helped pioneer it but modesty took over as it felt such a cheesy thing to do and I didn't want to come across as an arse. I'd like to think it would have been like Luke Skywalker meeting Ben Kenobi for the first time but in reality I seriously think he'd probably have replied "who?" But it was really nice to see all the work and research I'd put into that aspect of the hobby manifesting with such passion in someone else to be honest. It might be time for me to find a gaming club again and get back into the community instead of shying away from it all I guess. Might be an opportunity to meet people I've spoken to on here for years in person instead of hiding away in my hobby room.

Vykes Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 (edited) TITH, I picked up some new chaos goodies for a diorama, but I ay have ignored my L&T work in order to work on my Sons of Horus (which are weirdly unrelated at the moment). Still got a head to do and the feed lines for the moritat. Post Scriptum: Alright, got a question for thee! I'm stuck on a head option for a Terminator lord/Praetor, so, any thoughts?

Slasher956 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 #3 make the model look more fluid & flowing as though he's finishing the swing of the hammer, the other two look a bit stilted... almost like the hammer should be an axe thats being ripped backwards to clear what its been stuck in.

Magos Takatus Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 TiTHI changed my username.

Viridia Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 TITHI finished working on my Blanchitsu tech priest for my local GW's store anniversary. It has deviated a bit from the original tarot card I drew for the event, but there's no way my converting/kitbashing would have sufficed for that. Quite pleased with it as a potential addition to the Inquisimunda Mechanicus warband I've been plotting for a while.

Vykes Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 (edited) Viridia, I utterly love that Blanchetiite Tech priest. Asymmetrical, bestial, tech-fangled, it's perfect. Absolutely rocking! TITH, I worked up a second pair of Russ's Wolves, worked on filing a height map for a Necrotite Stargate diorama, and finally finished my Loyalty and Treachery vow. I wanna say I'll take a break but honestly I'm working up a bunch of Blood Angels already while some putty cures on the diorama.

DBadger Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 (edited) All my codices arrived... I now have the entire 4th and 5th editions of WH40k. Sort of. They accidentally send 3rd ed TAU, and I don't have both Tyranids. And I'm still missing a couple of supplements. (Specifically: Cities of Death, Planetary Empires, Planetstrike, Apocalypse Reload) I abslutely don't blame them for sending the wrong ed, I paid a token penny plus postage, and they're charities anyway that sell on Amazon. Still a little annoying to a completionist! Need a new goal now... 3rd is gonna be more expensive. The books go for more, and there are more of them. And I have less to begin with. Anyone know how I can guarantee which copy of 'Nids I'd get? Is there some kind of hidden ISBN? Also started painting the tanks I got from Conquest. Painting them on sprue this time. Trying to model some curtains, to make a baroque interior befitting the BT, because I'm weird. Also printing some interior panels because I'm a cheater.

Chaeron Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 YITH, had a great time at Salute - picked up some cool bits for various things (a great 'grab bag' from Anvil!), some stuff for modeling and painting generally (some fluorescent paints and weathering pigments), and was great to catch up with Dragonlover too!

Fhanados Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Today in the hobby I finished painting my last poxwalker. Every Death Guard model I own is now painted and ready for basing. I'm pretty excited - I've been in the hobby for 18 years and this is the closest I've ever come to having a fully painted army battle ready!

Gederas Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 TITH I nearly finished my Master of Possession for my Night Lords: TITH I'm painting the skin of an Obliterator. I've now realised that I am neither good at nor particularly keen on painting large areas of skin I'm dreading it only because I'm unsure HOW I want to paint the skin. Or more specifically: If I want to prime the entire model white, then paint black over the areas that won't be skin, or go the other way around and prime black, then paint white for the skin to get the result I want to go for.

Bryan Blaire Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Today in the hobby, I cut out the ruins sections from my Sector Fronteris Kill Zone box, fit everything cut out together, then managed to only get one bloody tiny single ruins section cleaned up and all mold lines shaved off. Terrain is such a pain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
