What are you doing today hobbywise?

After procrastinating for couple years I finally got this fully assembled and painted. Going to weather it some more as it is a big building and will draw eyes to it. One thing I dislike is it's lack of interior, might have to add covers/shades to the windows. For now I'm making five squares that will show what level the models are on. Each will have its own style and different flooring. I can't afford a 3D printer, not just the machine itself but I know I'd have it running non stop making furniture and other dressings.

 

Thats some incredible work

 

Thank you! I have a group of very talented friends who push me to get better. Also nicely painted stuff will help get my youngest son more and more interested in gaming.

 

While getting ready to base my Roman and Irish characters my son decided that Staypuff Marshmallow Man was I'm the neighborhood and wanted to attack. Fortunately the Ghostbusters were in the area to help them out! This kid is going to be amazing to game with.

 

Nice Ancient characters you have there... I recognise the Roman as the Warlord 'Kenneth Williams' Julius Caesar figure. Where did the Gael come from? He'd also work nicely as a Gaul or Briton. Which game are you planning to use them in? Warhammer Ancient Battles judging by the square bases?

Great Ghostbusters figures too! Which manufacturer did they come from? Your lad has good taste in films! His imagination reminds me of my own as a child.

 

Thanks! Kenneth has such amazing character, it's really a beautiful sculpt. The Gael as far as I know is from the same manufacturer, I bought them with a bunch of Roman legion models but then my plan to use them as warhammer ancients was squashed by that group dying. These two will join my Dogs of War as they are only slightly smaller. The Ghostbusters are zombicide and I also have Gozer, Slimer and the dogs. Ecto one is Jada Toys. They are nice enough in Zombicide but I plan on getting their firestation and using them for Pulp Alley.

 

Old necrons or new ones?

 

I have a sweet spot for the old but some of the new are really cool. How are monolith in the new edition?

 

Painting up Hell's Grannies from Zombicide Monty Python

 

today I learned that was a thing

 

I kind of realized just how much unbuilt Dark Elf stuff I have in my inventory, so I may as well see what I can do with it.

The relevant box collection is as follows:

1x Anvilgard Start Collecting Box
- 1 Black Ark Fleetmaster
- 10 Black Ark Corsairs
- 1 Scourgerunner Chariot or 1 Cold One Chariot
- 1 War Hydra or 1 Kharibdyss

3x Dark Elf Cold One Knights kits (5 models each)

1x Warhammer Legends Dark Elf Dreadlord on Cold One (I'm fairly certain this is Mallus Darkblade)

I'm rather tempted to just forward these to an Old World army as a foil to my High Elves, rather than using them in AoS.

 

I need to get my shit together in making stensels to spray vaguely Saurian symbols on the side of my Chimera turrets. Sadly while the Tamiya sticky-back stensel paper I have is great, its smaller than A4 so I can't bung it in my printer

 

That sounds like a great idea.

 

Finally did the masking work I've been putting off for way too long. I got mixed results. Its gone 1am though so I'll clean it up tomorrow.

 

What army are they for?

 

My lizardmen 40k army. I'm running them as imperial guard.
