Ah yes the blog I knew there was something I hadn't updated in a while :)
I'd love to say it's been because I have been super busy painting models, gaming and other activities but honestly it has just been lack of motivation probably due to a combination of very hot weather, work, wedding planning, Fall Guys (an amusing video game) and that virus Nurgle dropped off at the start of the year.
On the positive side let's talk about what I have planned and anything I have done hobby wise here:
1. "Ork Battlewagon" - You managed to get an original! You lucky bas-- Nope I acquired a Genestealer Cult Goliath Rockgrinder instead which I have been slowly building and converting into an orky battlewagon. It's current status is built with an ork driver. Stay tuned for more on that once I decide what to do with the heavy weapons :P
2. Tzeentch, Lord of Change - A recent ebay purchase means I now have one of each Greater Daemon. The Keeper of Secrets was painted fairly recently and can be found here - Keeper of Secrets - My great unclean one is painted but it was done about 15 years ago so it's quality is dubious (he certainly needs basing). he Bloodthirster is in bits and semi painted. Hopefully the bird lord will get painted first and I will be looking at doing a theme based off the Dark Crystal.
3. Other Chaos - You may remember me mentioning a chaos warband ages ago, you may even remember me painting a chaos sorcerer. Well I still hope to get that done and I have a few things in the pipeline including this chaos thug and a doomrider from the pantheon of chaos guys.
I have to say that after a metal lictor the doomrider is possibly one of the most horrendous things I have ever had the pleasure of trying to glue together!!
4. Orks, lots and lots of orks - I have a small shelf of various orks that are just waiting to be painted. They are all at the least undercoated. They range from early plastic orks a couple of which have been painted up to a squad of snakebite orks that look like they walked off a wild west native american reservation.
5. Ogres / Ogryns - When one final ebay order eventually arrives I will finally have the squad of classic Jes Goodwin ogres I always wanted. They will be doing double duty as a group of ogryns in my ork army.
6. Terrain - A small terrain piece made of household recycling has been created, just needs a few finishing touches.
7. Gretchin and Big Guns - Yep the grots get there time to shine and not the monopose 2nd edition ones which I am completely putting off painting. A smasha, splatta, squig catapault and pulsa rocket are all waiting for the paintbrush.
So there you go a breif update of what to look forward to from this blog with lots of nice photos :)
Until next time.
