Woot - only a Day late



Babies take up some time haha.  Crazy enough - the painting ability isn't to hampered - but the drawing time is hurt.  It takes more mental power for me to draw then it is for me to paint, even though getting a finished drawing takes less time.  Ugh - got things to do haha.

Let's go with the paint list - I got a bunch of stuff done this week and hope to knock out some painting commissions by the weekend so I can become a super hero of paint.  Or something like that.

Me
Maybe work on some Orks?
Article - who knows what I will talk about - brain is kind of scatter/sleep deprived so yeah - if I lose my train of thought as I write it Larry fixes it haha.
Art - Mechanical man thingie
Art - Space Marine Banner thingie
Art - Frontline Batrep Warmachine - got Retribution, Mercs, and Convergence to do
Art - Frontline Batrep Hordes - Got a few of those to do
Art - Frontline Batrep Dropzone commander - haven't even started
Maybe I will paint something for me hah.

Brandon
LoTD Bikers - got a quick turn around one to do before Da Boyz GT - bikers, foot people, etc

Caleb
Box 2 of NecroOrks is almost done - I have a base and 3 portal thingies to finish - then we got a Stompa after that.

Travis
1 Box of 10 Metal Merc Troops and 1 Warcaster

Tim V
Land Raider
Drop Pod
1 Biker plus 1 Biker Character
3 Knights

Greg S
Start building some IG.

From there - I got some other stuff I need to paint up too in the coming months.  A Nid commission plus Warmachine Cygnar small batch to do.  I am glad I don't have any events until next year to even think about.  LVO is a lock as is ATC - from there who knows.  Woohoo...

It looks like I might get a game in tonight.  I was going to pull out an Ork Greentide list to just see how the tide handles.  Basic build - major proxies as I don't have a 100 Slugga/Choppa boyz.  I do have a 120 Shoota boyz though :(.

Greentide plus Ork CAD

Greentide
Warboss, Eavy Armor, PK, Supa Cybork,
Ard Slugga Boyz X 9, Nob, PK
Ard Slugga Boyz X 9, Nob, PK
Ard Slugga Boyz X 9, Nob, PK
Ard Slugga Boyz X 9, Nob, PK
Slugga Boyz X 9, Nob, Big Choppa
Slugga Boyz X 9, Nob, Big Choppa
Slugga Boyz X 10
Slugga Boyz X 10
Slugga Boyz X 10
Slugga Boyz X 10

Ork CAD
Warboss, Eavy Armor, Lucky Stix, Power Klaw, Bosspole
Mad Doc
Gretchin X 10
Gretchin X 10
Warbuggies X 5, TWL Rokkits
Mek Guns X 5
Lootas X 10
Aegis Line, Ammo Dump

Will see if it works alright.  It should give me some ideas on what is needed as I play and what I need to paint for next year.  Depending on what comes out too.  Woohoo!

Man - I hope the evil knights from FW are good - I got some ideas they could use - but then I would just look like I am wish listing. Let's see from the top.

No more shields - they all become demonic thus get 5+ Inv saves.
Slaanesh would have fleet - plus its guns would be short ranged and a large amount of shooting.
Khorne would have Melta guns, have extra attacks, and rampage
Tzeentch would be shoot the most and probably have a ML for casting
Nurgle would have Shroud and some kind of bile cannon thing.

Or so I would hope - will see.  Alright - some models to show then I am off working on some artwork I hope.

Zoom zoom - more necrons!

Another fancy ride for the Necro Orks

Not sure what this guy is.

I wanted to paint this guy since seeing him - decided to make him a Chaos Space Marine Bike Chaos Lord.




More bikerz!!!

Where did we park our car?

Grrr... give me some kibble!

Some arts.

Goatboy's Tuesday - I am surviving!



When I don't get much sleep - I end up doing some kind of "mindless" work.  Painting falls into that while art doesn't really fall into that.  It is life - but I have gotten painting stuff done so that is good.  In fact I bet I finish off a commission by this weekend, get another one partway done and probably end up starting on another rush order too.  I just can't stop being busy.

Oh yeah - wife had the baby last week too on Tuesday.  In fact he will be a full week today at 6:09pm central.  Woohoo - he is doing well, gaining weight and giving me lots of pops in return for the sleepless nights.  Fair trade right?  I hope to get a game in next week when I have a buddy come over.  Maybe will try to bat rep it so I can show how bad I play.  Maybe.

Let's get my work list for the week.

Me
Maybe build the 2 mauler fiends I want to play with.  Maybe
Bought the Blight King Character and plan on putting him on an Attack Bike to create the new Nurgle Chaos Lord idea I have.
Write Article for Monday
Plus hopefully get some Art done for Frontline gaming - knock out the Warmachine/Hordes bat rep art to get them done and hopefully get me some end times stuff.
Maybe other art too? I know I got some.

Greg S
Start working on some AM stuff hopefully

Travis
Finish off the Cryx - got a box of troop like guys, a character, and this other horse guy

Tim
I have 3 knights and a bunch of bikers to do.  Thankfully they are mostly built so I don't have to cry over 3 knights.

Caleb
NecroOrks - got another flyer, some ghost arc stuff and some other things.  Woohoo it never ends for this art piece/army.

I have other stuff I have to look at and maybe another commission.  Waiting on the model count plus time to figure out if I can get it done in time.  Woohoo.

Man I can't wait to throwing down with the Siccariun I plan on getting soon.  Woohoo.

Want to do a complete assault list CSM.  Just cause I plan on losing a lot.  Heck I can have two Siccariuns in there too because I plan on taking a Sorcerer.  Hrm... interesting thoughts.

Crimson Slaughter/Daemons

HQ: Chaos Lord, Bike, Sigil, PF, Lit Claw, MoN
HQ: Sorcerer, Bike, Spell Fam

LOTD test for what could be a new commission - did not do the conversions.

Rogue Psyker?

There is gonna be more of these guys.

Creeper!  Cryx!

Yeah for plastic models.

Goatboy's Very Late post



Sorry for the lack of an update.  No baby yet - but lots of baby stuff and life stuff.  Plus frustrating trying to pay new car payment dammit.  But blah blah blah - more game stuff!

Paint list - will see how much I get done while baby is coming.  When I am running on very little sleep doing somewhat mindless things keeps me going.  Painting falls in that category while drawing doesn't so much.  Will see what I end up doing.

Me.
Nothing really - got charity model done so really I would like to get 2 more mauler fiends fiends but will see.
Some art - got some stuff to get done for Frontline and others.

Travis
More Cryx - gonna try to get that done in the 3 weeks I have off for the baby.

Caleb
NecroOrks - gonna get more knocked out.

Brandon
Test Bikers for Legion of the damned - got my initial one done - will get the 5 done in a few days.

Tim
Start to pull out the biker guys.

Will
10 Flesh Hounds of Khorne

Greg
More IG/Inq things.

These are all things I want to hit in the next 3 weeks.  Plus I have Don's Cygnar stuff and other fun things.  And my stuff - I still want to do the Greentide for myself.

Feast is going on while I write this.  I am sure I would have played in the invitational.  Since I wouldn't have had time to get a Greentide list working I would have played some kind of CSM/Daemon built.  Summoning plus a fast rush as I feel that would working a 1500 pt environment.

HQ: Chaos Lord, MoK, Juggernaut, Powerfist, Lightning Claw, Sigil of Corrpution, Gift of Mutation
HQ: Bel'Akor
Troops: Cultists X 10
Troops: Cultists X 10
FA: Chaos Spawn X 5
Heavy: Maulerfiend
Heavy: Maulerfiend
Heavy: Maulerfiend

HQ: Herald of Tzeentch, Lvl 3
HQ: Herald of Tzeentch, Lvl 3
Troops: Pink Horrors X 16

1500 pts - I can make more guys to cover the score - start at 12 WC dice so I should be able to cast spells.  I could go with a non Bel'Akor option too - but man this looks good.  Kind of wonder if I should get Lasher Tendrils on the Maulerfiends but again this is an idea list that I might have taken.

I like the Greentide too - here is the initial design build I think might work out.

Greentide plus Ork Horde Detachment

Greentide
HQ: Warboss, Power Klaw, Supa Cybork Body
Troops: Slugga Boyz X 10, Eavy Armor, Nob, PK
Troops: Slugga Boyz X 10, Eavy Armor, Nob, PK
Troops: Slugga Boyz X 10, Eavy Armor, Nob, PK
Troops: Slugga Boyz X 10, Nob, PK
Troops: Slugga Boyz X 10, Nob, PK
Troops: Slugga Boyz X 10, Nob, PK
Troops: Slugga Boyz X 10, Nob, Big Choppa
Troops: Slugga Boyz X 10, Nob, Big Choppa
Troops: Slugga Boyz X 10
Troops: Slugga Boyz X 10

Ork Horde:
HQ: Mad Doc
HQ: Warboss, Power Klaw, Lucky Stix
HQ: Weird Boy, Lvl 2
Troops: Gretchin X 10
Troops: Gretchin X 10
Troops: Gretchin X 10
Heavy: Mek Guns X 3, Traktor Cannon X 3
Heavy: Mek Guns X 5, Smasha Guns X 5
Fortification: Aegis Line, Ammunition Dump

1850 on the nose.  Lots of bodies - ways to make more with the Caster or go Santic if I want.  It might work.  It looks interesting for sure.  Too bad the Mek guns are expensive.

Oh some art and minis - I did finish some work.

NecroOrk Trukk - Ghost Ark... etc

FoB Army - Troop Choice # 1

FoB Army - Troop Choice # 2

Charity Model


Inquisitor Land Raider Crusader


I do hates me some metal models haha.

Some art for Steve Turner.

More Frontline arts.
Could be a poster design - at least what I colored today.
