Firepower Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 (edited) Welcome to the B&C, Ultra. You should throw up your army over in the WIP/Hall of Honor, while you're at it Today in the hobby, I got a fresh bottle of vallejo thinner in the mail. I poured it in my airbrush cup, puzzled as to why it was clear when my last bottle was milky white, and then poured in the paint after it. With the same ratio I used with my last bottle, the mixture was as thin as water. I poured in more paint, still too thin. The cup was nearly overflowing by the time it was a good consistency. It was only then that I saw "New Formula" in red letters on the label Love it It takes barely 1/3 as much thinner to do the same job as the old stuff, and came in a significantly bigger bottle!

kdruthless Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 (edited) I'm a fleshtearer and crimson hunter (DIY space marine) collector. Can someone please tell me why I've spent the last day painting up figures for an army of The Purge?! Not only that, why the :cuss is Trazyn the Infinite allying with them?!? Is that even legal? And why do I have my own DA successors under consideration as well?

Bigger-than-Jesus Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 This week in the hobby I: -Got the vehicle dice set that came with 6th ed. It's very, very pretty. -Initiated a clear out that dug up €912(so far, there's at least one more Russ and Guard squad somewhere) in models, and some NIB Rogue Trader Rough Riders too, to trade in to the LGS for stuff for Apocalypse. -Realised my ETL vow is screwed for reasons that will be clear shortly -Started my Ultramarines project. Which will end only when I have the whole damn chapter. So far, it's Sicarius. By himself -Started a massive Chaos project featuring at least five different warbands, a traitor PDF army, and Daemons -And started armies for 2nd. Edition Eldar, Catachans, Marines and Chaos. I think this will take a while.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Office temp Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Assembled a razorback and used some bits from the crusader sprue to make an alternate/additional assault cannon turret for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p34ce Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Today in the hobby, I blu-tacked together the final parts for my awesome, gorgeous, magnetised, half-plastic half-resin Blood Angels Captain with six weapon configurations, who will probably never be used in anger.

Aqui Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Today in the hobby I assembled and painted from scratch two units a Chaplain on Cold one (counts as bike) and an Assault squad. In that time I also kitbashed my first objective marker - a Teleport homer, finished a Devastator squad (three models and non ETL) and given every model the distinctive helmet strip to thirty five models. In around 8 hours. I ache all over, but it means that I have a functioning force to try out over the weekend I just need to be able to learn enough/get a grasp of the rules before then, so I don't look like a total tit over the weekend The Yak 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dosjetka Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 (edited) This evening, I practiced edge highlighting and painting extreme highlights. Tough, but very rewarding once you sit back and look at the final result :) Edited July 4, 2013 by Battle-Brother Ludovic Firepower 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pariah Mk.231 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Today I began work on my Chaos killteam. The first step to rebuilding the Morbid Progeny (my DIY Renegades) as they were all tragically conscripted into the Iron Warriors when the Red Corsairs stole my colour scheme. The scheme has been re-thought, and is close enough to the original that I'm happy with it, and still different enough from Huron's crew to avoid any confusion. Another reason they got repainted is that the marines of the Mordbid Progeny are heavily mutated, and prior to the release of the plastic possessed kit, I had no real way to represent them the way I really wanted to. Now, with the new Chosen and Raptors, I can make a small force with enough gribbly warp-bits and mutations to satisfy me. What I've done so far for the killteam is the 17 Beastmen (cultists) that will make up the bulk of the team. They will be led by 3 Terminators, representing the few surviving Progeny still to wear their colours proudly. It will be their task to recruit new renegades to resume their 5,000 year campaign against the Imperium (they're a 13th Founding Chapter). These guys are going to be the real challenge as I'll be starting with Grey Knights as the base, and sculpting most of the details myself. So far I only have a few ideas for them, but the champion with going to have a giant eyeball in place of his head, and a gaping maw on his chest. Another will probably have his helmet modelled as an open mouth, with a pair of big tusks and several small eyes within the mouth itself. Well, back to work, this warband is going to recruit itself.

The Yncarne Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Today I completed a marine with a rocket launcher and one with a plasma gun. This finishes my third tactical squad. I finished a dreadnaught with four arm options. I also continued work on five predators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aqui Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Today (well, yesterday), I participated in an 8 army battle - 4 Imperial, 4 Xenos at Warhammer World (Ultrameet 2013 ). It didn't get finished as we'd run out of time (end of turn two/start of turn three and what we had played took around 3-4 hours, so you can guess it was quite a big match! ), but much carnage and fun was had Also, I succumbed and got a Razorback. It was that or completely go off the rails and get a Contemptor Dreadnought (it was close.....very close! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 (edited) Today in the hobby I miiiight have ruined 17 or so pairs of shoulder pads with a sloppy attempt at sponging on battle damage. I can't be sure until it's all done getting washed and put together, though.

Phalanx Warder Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 (edited) Today in the hobby I converted ccw scouts to snipers, I added scratched built "guillie" suits and pinned paper to plastic! And made a shotgun into a sniper Rifle which looks just like the USMC M40 A3 (all new to me) Edited July 8, 2013 by Battle8rother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
