I Paint Things!

And Do Arts - YAY!!!  Man work has been nutty.  I am still painting stuff - just not nearly any time to just chill, relax, and bang out some blog content.  But oh darn - better late then never.

Paint list

Me
Most likely nothing - but still planning armies - which you will see down below
Some Artwork for a 30k event in New Zealand
BOLS article

Greg S
More Marines plus Knight and stuff - gonna start building the knight this weekend - but with family in town for boy's baptism will see.

Brandon V
More LoTD stuff - 5 more pods - and as they are built I will probably paint one of them soon.

Ryan H
Woot - 5 Wulfen left to finish this off - yay

Mike K
Space Sharks

Don
Some stuff - so much marine stuff I need to get a palette cleanser and see when and what he wants.

Maybe some infinity stuff for a coworker - will see.  He has built them all so I am less upset.

Let's talk about current working on lists - the first is one I am going to test out in a week or so.

FMC Daemons - Return of the Murder Murder!

Daemonic Tetrad - Formation
Daemon Prince of Khorne, Wings, Greater Gift X 2, Lesser Gift, Armor
Daemon Prince of Nurgle, Wings, Greater Gift, Exalted Gift, Lvl 3 Caster
Daemon Prince of Tzeentch, Wings, Greater Gift, Exalted Gift, Lvl 3 Caster, 3++ Robes
Daemon Prince of Slaanesh, Wings, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3 Caster

Daemon CAD
Fateweaver
The Masque
Nurglings X 3
Nurglings X 3
Nurglings X 3

The Masque is there to keep Deathstars going a bit slow and to cause issues to other "big" things etc.  She might Survive to do something too - so will see.  I kinda wish I could be an Incursion Host thing - but there isn't really a Core Cheap enough to get that and Fateweaver shoved in.  Still it would be fun.

Next up is a decision to go KDK or Incursion for Dog Swarm.  I am leaning towards Incursion as the objective "holding" might be very strong - as is the ability to control the Warp Storm into busted configurations.

Incursion version of the Barkageddon of Blood

Incursion Force
Murder Horde
Herald, Jugger, Locus of Wrath, Exalted Gift
Dogs X 5 - X 8

Aux - Karanak

Daemon Lord - Fateweaver
Daemon Lord - LoC, Greater Gift X 2, Lesser Gift, Level 3, Impossible Robes
Daemon Lord - LoC, Greater Gift X 2, Lesser Gift, Level 3

Cover the table in dummies - has 2 Bad Ass MC's that are hitting at strength 8 with their Staves.  One has a 3++ save so that is pretty awesome.  Plus I can summon stuff as needed and have a ton of doggies to throw in the way. The Herald is all about throwing Grim on something if needed too.

Next up - Super Killer Death Star

SW CAD
Iron Priest, Thunder Wolf, Cyber Wolves X 4
Blood Claws, Rhino
Blood Claws, Drop Pod
Wulfen X 10, Hammers X 5, Axe/Gun X 3, Leader upgrade
Drop Pod
Quad Morter Battery X 3

Sisters of Battle CAD
The Saint
Priest, Litanies of Faith
Sisters X 5, Meltagun X 2, Rhino
Sisters X 5, Meltagun X 2, Rhino
Exorcist
Exorcist

Culexus Assassin

I call this the Death Star breaker.

Lots of goofy stuff - thinking about ATC is why.  Woohoo.  Now some models and other goodies to look at.  The last Wulfen should be done in a day or two - plus more art.

Models to look at

LoTD Drop Pod

Space Shark Test

Never ending Space Wolves!

Artwork to look at too!

Goatboy's Thursday Post of Postiness!

Man this last week has been rough.  I had to put my dog down on Monday after a week of trying to get her better.  Force feeding, vet visits, and worry.  My awesome wife did so much by force feeding her and we are pretty rocked by it.  You just can't let an animal suffer if they are not getting better.  Its just too much.

So no dogs for awhile.  I want my son to grow up with a doggie but we loved that River dog.  It did kill a lot of my model time so the models below are pretty light for a normal week and a half.  Still I am getting back on the wagon and knocking out some stuff.

Man it has been raining so much here I can't prime for shit.  ugh - Got my knight primed to get me out of my funk for sure.

Oh - Mad Max is friggin awesome.  If seeing that doesn't make you want to play Orks - well then you hate fun.

First - I did play the Alamo GT last weekend.  I wasn't announced as Second overall due to a point mess up but later that night they check and saw I was indeed 2nd overall.  I lost at the end to the overall winner - Ben Mohile.  This is the second event in Texas where me and Ben both took home 1st and 2nd overall.  He was playing Decurion Necrons with Praterions and Canoptek Harvest.  Rough stuff and I goofed up some movement that probably cost me the game.  Still my mind wasn't awesome and I was more so winning off the roughness of my list on some armies.

If I played it again I would drop the Culexus and instead go with better HQ's ala Runic Armor etc.  I still think adding casting might be better just because randomly having Shrouding, Invisibility, Psychic Shriek, etc might be good.

Maybe this would be good as a DA/SW list

DA
HQ: Libbie, Bike, Lvl 2, Force Axe, Meltabomb
HQ: Libbie, Bike. Lvl 2, Force Axe, Meltabomb
HQ: Ravenwing Command Squad X 5, Apoc, Rad Grenade, Ravenwing Banner
HQ: Ravenwing Command Squad X 5, Apoc, Rad Grenade
Troops: Scouts X 5
Troops: Scouts X 5

SW
HQ: WGBL, Thunder Wolf, PF, SS, Runic
HQ: WGBL, Thunder Wolf, PF, SS, Runic
Elite: Iron Priest, Thunder Wolf, Cyber Wolves X 4
Elite: Iron Priest, Thunder Wolf, Cyber Wolves X 4
Elite: Iron Priest, Thunder Wolf, Cyber Wolves X 4
Elite: Iron Priest, Thunder Wolf, Cyber Wolves X 4

But man the reroll to hits from the Chaplain in the first round of combat helped so much.  Might just be better with Chaplains.  Still the list worked and was rough for a lot of armies.  And you had enough punch to remove Necron stuff.  It was hard still but it could be done.

The new Knight has me thinking of finding ways to add one into lists.  I am thinking the gun one might be a good stand back unit.  Heck even the Objective Secured group might be good.  I really have to see what Marines end up being before I can really decide.  Still... blargh.

And of course I am fighting the urge to make a super Killa Ork army that will lose like a boss.

Ork Horde Detachment/Ghaz Detachment/Mogrok's Boss Boyz

Ork Horde
HQ: Warboss, Bike, Power Klaw, Lucky Stix
HQ: Zsnardsak
HQ: Painboy, Bike
Troops: Grots X 10

Mogrok's Boss Boyz
HQ: Warboss, Bike, PK
HQ: Big Mek, Bike, Kill Saw, Finkin Cap
HQ: Big Mek, Bike, Kill Saw

This looks nutty - you have a super huge squad of
3 Regular Warbosses with PK
1 Super Strong ini striking Warboss
4 Big Meks with PK like things
5 Deff Koptas that give extra stuff and shoot ok
1 FNP jerk hole

It could work and would probably be fun to build/paint/etc.

Alright onto work stuff.

Let's look at a paint list

Me
Knight # 2
Long War Art - One drawn, need to do 2 more
Frontline Art - Drawn
Banner/Art - Drawn
Team America Art - Idea down need to draw

Will W

Don S
Warmachine models - want to build a few this weekend I hope on Memorial day

Models

These 6 are done - gonna do a herald real quick based off that Fantasy Nurgle Lord.

Woot yay magnets - went with a blue green look - other Knights will have more red in them to stand them apart.

Arms are swap able with both sides - with only the fist having to be on his right.

My Favorite Knight - the come get some knight.  Plus look - the base isn't lava hah.

Sorry for the lack of picture updates.  Look for art and more models next time as I get back on this hobby horse.

Title and stuffs! And a Post! Mostly models

Man sorry for the late post.  It gets hard at times with new baby to get things written out.  Plus my weekly BOLS nonsense takes up some time.  I do like those new Necrons for sure.  I think they are a pretty solid army and on top of the 7th edition pile of books.  Will they take out the Eldar?  Maybe will see.

I do know I am glad those Command barges are gone.  Too swingy on the dice to make them fun.

Got a game in with my LVO army this past weekend against Nick.  He was playing his LVO and we had the Kill Points mission.  I won via the Primary, Warlord, and Line Breaker.  My army might not do that well on Maelstrom but it can push the primary pretty heavily.  I think I could have ignore the Maelstrom part and kept my things alive.

LVO army - FMC return of the Boom

Fateweaver
2 DP of Slaanesh, Wings, Armor, Greater X 2, Lvl 3
4 Units of Nurglings
1 DP of Tzeentch, Wings, Armor, Greater Gift X 2, Lesser Gift, Lvl 3
1 DP of Tzeentch, Wings, Armor, Greater Gift, Exalted Gift

Pretty basic and flies super easy too.  Woot.  I have enough to summon as well if needed.  DP's of Slaanesh roll Biomancy and Tzeentch ones roll Malefic.  Should work well enough and give me some play vs other daemons too.  Shooting Grim on their stuff is so much fun.

Lets get a paint list out to keep up with the norm

Me
10 More Goat Scouts
BOLS article
Art for Frontline
Art for Chicago Team thingie

Brandon

Onto the models to round this out - hopefully get some more time to actually write decent thoughts as kiddo calms down.  He is doing good.

Goat Scouts #1

Tigerius? Goatgerius?

Goat Cypher - Goatphr?

Ignore the base - client has his own just sent me the flyer.

Under New Management!

Non 40k related logo.

All these Bad Decisions.

Late ass post

Ok - so Thursday post.  Yeah it is late - been crazy busy.  Life is rough for the family Goatboy haha.  Boy is doing great - hopefully I can get some games in this weekend.  At least one to test my LVO list.  You saw it last week - that is the plan to play.  Woohoo

Paint list
Me
2 Sets of 3 Nurglings to do - need to build and then paint - easy stuff

Mike K

1 Valk to build and paint

Don S

and more regular guys - need to build all of this... woohoo

Eric

Some other stuff coming in too.  Woohoo!

Will try to do a basic batrep on the test game I plan on throwing out this weekend.  The Massed DP army.

Keeper, Greater X 2, Lvl 3
DP, MoT, Wings, Armor, Exalted, Greater, Lvl 3, Flying Ace
Troops: Nurglings X 3
Troops: Nurglings X 3
Troops: Nurglings X 3
Heavy: DP, MoS, Wings, Armor, Lvl 3,Greater X 2, Lesser
Heavy: DP, MoS, Wings, Armor, Lvl 3,Greater X 2, Lesser
Heavy: DP, MoS, Wings, Armor, Lvl 3,Greater X 2, Lesser

Almost tempted to run a CSM DP as an Ally - might be better as a Malefic caster with Spell Fam and the chance to get nutty stuff or make Eternal Warrior if I have the points.  But his flying ass is kind of bunk so will see.  Thoughts thoughts and more thoughts.

Lets look at models yay!

It is done!

You got metal crabs?

This is gonna ruin your picnic

Sisters!

Quick Orks cuz I love to paint em.

Goatboy's Monday er Sunday er yeah!

Man I wrote an article and then I deleted it because I am dumb.  Lordie lordie - but oh well - I got a crap ton of painting done this weekend.  One thing for me - tons of stuff for other people.  I got more to do this week too and hopefully I can knock out a ton of stuff.  Will see.

I got a game in Thursday.  We played modified Maelstrom missions.  I lost but I was more testing out the armies offensive capability versus playing the game.  It was a FMC list - Nurgle based.  I got great powers but man - I didn't cast a single power in the first turn.  Just nothing came out it was insane haha.

List

GUO, Lvl 3, Greater Gift X 2
DP, MoS, Wings, Armor, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3
Pink Horrors X 10
Pink Horrors X 10
Nurglings X 3
DP, MoN, Wings, Armor, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3
DP, MoN, Wings, Armor, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3
DP, MoN, Wings, Armor, Greater Gift X 2, Lvl 3

I was down some points - but most likely would have been characters in the Pink Horrors.  Still it worked well and played to my strengths.  Aggression haha.  GUO with Iron Arm is a bitch.  I didn't do any summoning because well - I didn't want too.  Normally you would put Summoning on the Pink Horrors and use left over dice to throw out things as needed.  Probably use the GUO at the end of rolling on Biomancy with either the Default power or getting lucky with one of the others.  Still it worked well and fit in a small box.

Let's write the paint list

Me
Art for people - need to see if I can find time - got the baby shower this weekend and a tournament to run on Sunday so I might be out of the pocket.  Will see
Article - need to right it before the end of the week as my weekend will be shot.
That is about it - won't have time to paint for myself.

Lance
18 More horse guys and then a movement tray - in boxes
2 Mortar teams - in a box
2 Characters - built - probably done tomorrow
1 Steam Tank - in a box

Travis
More and more Cryx and some mercaneries

Grew S
AM stuff - probably the scouts I see in a box - once the empire stuff is out will begin on this

Don
Last bit of the Old Skool flesh hounds - they are built just need to prime
Old Herald of Slaanesh on steed - built
Some Cygnar guys

Anthony
Jugger Lord - Primed and ready to paint - depending on how far I get into Empire tomorrow will see if I start the paint on it

Caleb
Necro Orks - probably won't be looked at till after this week

Chris
Dark Elves - need to knock out as many Empire this week - at least get the big horse squad done - then finish off this witch elves block.

Luis
Finish off the flesh tearers assault squad I have - need to swap some guns around

That is it for the list.  Man it looks daunting haha.  I can see what I knock out this week each night.  This is part of the reason why I quit the comic.  It just ate up a night when I really needed to have more time to painting things.  When I get caught up I will have time again to do more artwork.  It just gets hard as the art side of things takes more attention then painting if that makes sense.

Ok some models to look at and then I got to bed.

First new Ork - body is Black Reach - head is a Maxmini head.

AM guys eh?  

Tweaked and fixed up some painting on this one.

Will be doing a ton more of these guys.

I got 2 more buddies for him.

Tweaked the colors on this one.

We had two in this batch - one was not attached to a base - thus he got a taller ne.

Not sure what the green smoke is... but... 

More mind bullets!

Rando dudes.

Bring out your dead!

That one guy looks like he is holding in a fart.
