What are you doing today hobbywise?

Didn’t have quite the time I wanted to spend sculpting, but managed a few bits n bobs (hoping for a full day tomorrow - so they can start looking like models...rather than semi formed blobs.
(And no they are not all parts to the same model)

 

Painted some legion of everblight for a friend. Chuffing fellows

 

I took the opportunity to play Adeptus Titanicus on the tabletop for the first time, both of us using one reaver and two warhounds each (we were using 3D-printed models for the latter, since GW hasn't released actual models for them yet) in an introductory deathmatch. I'm quite satisfied with how the game plays, which is good since I'm strongly considering getting into the specialty game further with a titan legion of my own (I don't intend on collecting knights).

 

I finished taking stock of the kits I haven't built yet. Just a brief tally, this includes:

• 3 boxes of skink skirmishers;
  
• 1 complete Seraphon starter box;
• 2 incomplete Seraphon starter boxes (cavalry riders and carnosaurs/troglodons);
• 2 boxes of temple guard;
• 1 box of saurus cavalry;
• 2 boxes of melusai;
• 1 box of stormfiends; and
  
• 1 box of Stormcast Sequitors.

I also have nearly all the box sets I need to pull through for a 2000pt mechanized IG army, plus a few odd ends for showcase pieces I intend on building. This includes a half-baked plan of posing a Tau ghostkeel holding a broadside's twin-linked railgun.

As for building models, I also just finished putting together Spiteclaw's Swarm, as I'm thinking of building a Clan Eshin skaven army.

 

Got my Beasts of Chaos book, time to do some reading Pestilent Throng looks good if played right... Maybe. And they made a colour scheme for Hysh realm Beasts, well now I had that idea

 

First time playing a game of Age of Sigmar in a while, this time against a Beasts of Chaos army since the new release. Whilst I found myself completely tabled within 3 rounds of starting the game (all of my saurus warriors and skink skirmishers were wiped by a mass charge at the top of round 1, which included a cockatrice, chimera, doombull, bullgors, bestigors, and two units of gors), I surprisingly had a lot of success with both an Ark of Sotek and an astrolith bearer.

The astrolith in particular greatly annoyed my opponent due to the Proud Defiance special rule, claiming that the ability to have all seraphon units within 10" being able to re-roll failed hit rolls when the banner is planted should come with a higher point cost. Granted, this was the same guy who was annoyed that a slann on a balewind vortex could transfer his wounds onto an eternity warden at the base of said vortex solely because it is considered to be part of the slann's model when in use.

 

Designing my unofficial army - creating fluff / character designs and concept art / then model designs and warscrolls.

 

I have a couple of movement trays to finish up. Plus I have to finalize my Tomb Kings basing colour scheme.

 

Let us be the judge

 

Just ordered 4 Chaos familiars for my Gaunt Summoner... Guess the Chainrasps will have to wait!

 

Built feudal guard, argued about fireforge Kickstarter with random internet anons

 

Got an idea for my Troggoths, now it's mostly saving up for some now haha. Not sure whether to go full Troggoth how they lack a battleline. Might end up doing it anyway.

 

They just might be rolled in with the Moonclan / insect-fungus grots coming soon!

 

That is true but it makes me wonder how the Troggoth from the Underworlds is separate from the other Moonclan pack, could be just from the same thing though.
Then my local GW just announced the next lot of Made to Order miniatures and some Beastmen and Nurglitch from Skaven is in the next lot. Been wanting Nurglitch for ages but didn't want to pay £100+ for him

 

You were close to buying hard drugs on eBay?
