Showcase: Ravenwing Black Knights

First unit of Black Knights are complete.  I decided on a way to designate units, and that's with different color of plasma.  

Next up, more of the same!

Showcase: Blood Angels Tactical Marines

Wow I finished up some models! 5 BA tacticals to replace the unit I sold off a couple months ago because it was the wrong color. I do still have the other 5 but they are fairly low priority.

I really like how the power fist came out.

Next project is painting my Black Knights.  Lots of Black Knights!!

Showcase: Another scale model Mongram '55 F-100 Street Rod

I finally have some 40k incoming, but tonight I finished up another scale model.

It's another really super cheap kit, with a $12.99 MSRP that I got at 40% off just before Christmas.

The kit is very simple which makes it a fun and relaxing build.

The color is Testor's Lacquer Metallic Plum Crazy and it's just a beautiful color!!

Tax refund is here which means a restock of 40k kits for the year. Stay tuned!!

Showcase: Cygnar

Well I finished all my Cygnar models. It's only 25pts so really can't play much with it.

Not much to say.  Simple paint job: base, wash, layer, line highlight.  Using the GW Kantor blue is quite a bit darker then the actual Cygnar blue, and I like it that way.

Developing the Thunder star

So I'm having a lot of issues playing my Thunderstar list.  I call it a "superfriends" list even though it really does not follow the common formula for superfriends. 

I am really thinking about dropping the Dark Angels and going with a librarian conclave.  I know it's everywhere but there's a reason for it.

The point of this army is to be competitive in ITC tournaments. 

It really is all about invisibility, and endurance when needed.

I've also though about going with some drop Skitarri for a massive alpha strike. I want to get into admec in general, so that's a good place to start.

Anyway I'm sure I'll make a video too, but just rambling for now.

Showcase: Off topic - no 40k to paint! MPC '92 Firebird Formula

I am in the very rare position of not having any 40k models to paint. None.  I have a handful of models un-assembled but none of them can produce anything playable..so there's no point.

So instead I've been working on non-warhammer stuff, specifically model cars and Warmachine.

Tax refund time is almost upon me so that will end my drought and give me (hopefully) a whole year's worth of stuff to do.  For now, enjoy this MPC '92 Firebird Formula I finished. The paint came out pretty snazzy.  Good prep makes for good paint!

Showcase: Orcs and Goblins complete!

First post of the new year.  I have now finished all my Orcs and Goblin models. Took pictures, put them away and will probably forget about them.  Not sure what I'll be doing until I can buy some new stuff.
