I made it back ok!

FTW Games was great as usual - in fact this post will be a big one with art bags. Woohhoo.

Bag Art - check it!















Models I did last week and yesterday. Yup got one Dakka Jet done. Others will be dif colors. I think a blue one is next. Woohoo!






The tournament was fun as well at FTW. I played 3 decent games. I have continued my ability to not roll a 4+ with me hitting like 25% of my 4+ saves on my BW throughout the weekend. I played a test game versus Paul Murphy who easily chewed up the wagons with his IG. I couldn't roll and even running over a Chimera I just blue off the weapon when I penned it 3 times.

I think this means I need to just make my ork horde and leave it at that. Currently this is the plan - I got some random Avatars of War figures to be my Weird Boyz.

Will see how it works as I mess with it. I got some crazy quick painting to do this week - 52 Termagaunts and other nonsense that I might not have time to get all my jets done and build all the jerks for the army. I am planning on it but you never know. It sounds fun and I think that many guys painted on the table top is pretty neat. Hell I might jus do the whole army in Yellow to make for a really cohesive force on the table top. And to have people call me crazy for playing that many orks. Shit I might just do that.

Ok that is it for now - I am tired and I know this weekend is going to be filled with house work, terrain work, and whatever else. It is just going to be one of those weeks.

Friday - Another day and Another Dolla


Woohoo it is Friday and I went ahead and said F it to OT on Monday. I am off to FTW games next week so I only have a 2 day work week. It means Plastic Dudesmens needs to get done this Weekend. Woohoo! ART!

Lately I have been enamored with my orks again. I think painting a couple of big armies makes me miss my green skins. So with that in mind I plan on taking them to FTW this next weekend. Will see how it goes.

So with that - let's do a little blurb about.

Thursday May 31st thru June 3rd I will be at FTW Games in Midlothian, VA for the store's 2nd Birthday. That's right - Mr. Baer's store has been around for 2 years and just like last year I will be up there throwing dice, playing games, and getting your bags drawn on.

I should be getting in time to throw down on the late night 40k action that Thursday and I will be planning to squish things with Deff Rollas and cause people to complain about how the Ork codex is broken.

Here are some bags I did this other weekend at the Alamo as well as some new stuff!








I plan on bringing my orks and I am just slowly working on the pieces to get it all together. I am keeping my Core of 3 BW and I just want to look at either adding some random trukks for scoring or other options to help me out. Will see. Of course I need to get to painting some things but I am sure I will have a nice soul crushing army. look for my final list before I leave.

I will be up there with Jawaballs, Mr. Baer himself, Kenny and Mr. Paul "Sweat Pants" Murphy himself. I hear Mr. Brandt might come down as well so it will be a grand ole time as we yell about 6th edition, prices, and which booze is the best.
