Making Progress

Been a while since I've posted, but there is progress. Here's my WiP Giant, getting prepped for this year's Core Comp Tournament coming up in November:




Still some details and touch-ups to be done. Just the Giant, and a unit of Night Gobbos and I'll be ready to roll!

Adeption 2009 - that's a wrap.

WHEW! So Adepticon 2009 has come and gone. Had a great time - didn't fare too well in the singles competition. Lot of super-competitive lists this year. Typically Adepticon has been more about fluffy lists than competitive. Someone attributed the change to the lack of Grand Tournaments this year. Makes sense.

Here's my teammate and I assembled ready to roll! Mark really pulled through in the end in terms of painting. For a slow painter, he accomplished a ton!






Our first team game; slaves look across the field to waiting demons.


Can slaves stand up to a block of 8 Blood Knights with a Lord?


Unfortunately no.



In the meantime Orcs make their way upfield.

Waaaggh!






I didn't take any pics in our second game, but got some good shots of game three:



Staring eachother down...

Wave upon wave of rats!









Demon Bloodletters outflanked and outnumbered - swarmed by vermin!

This was just a ridiculous 14' long model of an Ork spaceship. The amount of detail was awesome. Now, to build a fleet of these...

First paintpot cracked open!

Welcome to my miniatures painting blog! I'll be updating progress on different painting projects of mine. Some things I have in the works:

WHF:
High Elves
Orcs & Goblins

40k:
Eldar

For my first update, I recently picked up a bunch of decal paper from a local train-hobby shop. I've been struggling with how to effectively & attractively create banners beyond simple High Elf runes. I'm hoping this will do the trick as I've had good results from decals and previous Babylon 5 miniatures. Stay tuned...
