What are you doing today hobbywise?

I will have to do some catching up on the Rumour Engine thread with all the reveals of the NOVA open.

Grrr, !mrahil

 

Back from my first intro game after many years, I'm tired and was feeling uncomfortable as the health issues was creeping up on me. But it was a fun little 500 point game, Saurus vs Ogors. We didn't really work out the score at the end as time was short but we covered basics.
Next time it's being bumped up to 1000 so back to working out what to bring for that, might try and get some ranged and or magic in.

 

Just got one of my orders in the mail. Single Melusai Blood Sister for a conversion I want to attempt. The company I bought it from has the most awesome street name in their address. "Celestial Way." Can't get much more gamer than that for a street name.

 

More sneks acquired today. ADD brain made me put the Orruks (except for Ironskull's Boyz, which I'm slowly painting) into storage, and now I'm working on sneks.

 

Building more Roger Rogers.

 

I plan on repainting some Deathrattle Skellies tonight. Since they were one of my first getting back into the hobby they feel a bit shabby to say the least.

 

I primed a bunch of landskneckt the other day.

Tonight I'm either going to continue clearing sprues or I'll paint dwarves.

 

Still going at it with the Roger Rogers, but this time it's tactical.


Never mind the protocol droid calling every organic a meatbag.

 

Been building the first of my Dark Age Welsh.

These are a kitbash with WA Late Roman bodies and the occasional head and shield, plus additional heads, shields and cloaks from the Gripping Beast Dark Age Welsh box.

 

Um...



I did a thing... by mixing bits from Melusai, a Harlequin Shadowseer, and some Wytch bitz... and made... a Male-usai? Mal'edarr? Whatever. Snek-Priest.

 

Cool! I like it look forward to seeing it painted

 

During lunchbreak I managed to get by a GW store to pick up the Orruk Brutes box, before they are going off the shelf. Also assembled a Orruk Ardboy mini of last month.

Grrr, !mrahil

 

Why would the Brutes be going off of the shelf? They've already been repackaged with new artwork, and GW didn't mention anything about them going away? The old 'Ardboyz will probably go away, mind...

 

It looks to me like the Brute Ragerz and Weirdbrute Wrekkaz will fill somewhat of the same roll.
I already have a unit of Ardboyz so I am fine with that

Grrr, !mrahil

 

Brute Ragerz are Brutes who failed to kill something and have to atone for it. They're going to keep the old Brutes, I'm 99% sure of it (though with GW, you never can tell), and these will be an elite unit.

 

mm, bought some Amphorae to use as basing stuff for my snek-lady army. They're Greek, the sneks kind of have a Greek feel to them... also assembling Khinerai and thinking about Ork Big Gunz and how they have a 6+ BS on their Legends Warscroll (which as they are grots should be a 4+ I suppose) but it is actually a 5+ since you'll almost NEVER move one.

 

Just finished the infinite and the divine.

Best $10 on thriftbooks so far.

 

Haven't been able to work on much as the house got invaded by Nurgle.
Got enough strength today to clean part of the shed, tomorrow I will be putting the 3D printers up, still no electric sorted so they will just be display till everything is set up. Took a while to figure out a space to put them, makes me wish I got a bigger shed but it would of costed too much to kit out.
I did some chipping at my personal tabletop as I had some ideas to write down.

Really need to get painting as I have to keep posting fillers of my old work on Instagram.
