What are you doing today hobbywise?

Archery is one of several Olympic sports that I think is ridiculous and loses the entire point of being a good archer.

Tae-Kwon-Do is another. I did this martial art as a kid. The Olympic version is just plain WEIRD. You can't use your arms?!?! What you are flipping talking about? It's a FLIPPING MARTIAL ART!!!!!

 

Yep, that's not proper archery, give me a traditional medieval longbow any day of the week

 

I would like to like this many times over. Brilliant.

 

That's awesome mate!!
Good stuff

Grrr, Imrahil

 

I was notified recently that my local gaming group's next Necromunda campaign will be starting at 1500 credits, which necessitated at least two more gang members in my Van Saar gang on top of what I already painted earlier.


A Van Saar Augmek (champion) with Hyskrar-Pattern Energy Shield and Suppression Laser (think laser shotgun)


Van Saar Tek Specialist (ganger) with rad gun and sub las-carbine.

Spoiler: Here's the whole gang so far

 

Bought and started reading Stargrave today. It's interesting. Mostly a sci-fi reskin of Frostgrave, but that isn't a bad thing.

 

Had a little extra time yesterday, so I put details onto some savage ork big 'uns that have been sitting on my notional paint table for too long.

 

Another revelation in getting more bodies for my Van Saar gang at gang creation led me to painting up two more teks and the 5 lasguns I currently have available (I will need to purchase another box to get more). Short of me being a silly goof and deciding that "Remove x, replace with lasgun" should apply across all of my gang members just to get another two teks (or another augmek), that's about as far as I'm going to adjust my gang for now.

 

Bought a couple things for an upcoming WHFB tournament. I picked up a box of savage orks, then built ten of them. The rest will probably become part of my AoS army. I also picked up two trolls (one reaper, one dnd) to give me a full set of 6.

 

I actually had another few minutes, so I primed the Reaper troll and the savage orks. I also started on a small terrain project. I wasn't sure what to do with the base that came with the troll, so I started turning it into a terrain piece.

 

For my Birthday today I received a box of the Oathmark Dwarf Heavy Infantry who I'm going to make into Khazad Guard, Iron Guard and perhaps some character and command models for my Middle Earth Dwarves. I've been comparing them on the sprues to my existing Middle Earth Dwarf models - slightly taller than the Dwarf Warriors (though this will be reduced slightly once I've cut off the moulded bases), but they look as though they'll be pretty much the same height as taller Dwarf models like Dwalin and Thorin, which is fine because, given Khazad Guard are the royal bodyguards and Iron Guard are reconnaissance veterans, they'd be the biggest, toughest Dwarves in the kingdoms. Very pleased with the box, 30 models means I'll be able to make a lot out of it.

 

Happy birthday man!

Grrr, Imrahil

 

Happy (late) Birthday, Lord Agragax!

I am ... slowly... I mean, REALLY slowly... assembling my Troggoth Hag. Stupid resin parts don't like up well, so it is a lot of filing-and-fitting work with extra thick glue as a gap filler...
