Goals for 2013



We all need goals in life.  Something to strive for.  I find that we gamers are the worse of all if we do not focus.  We are bears of little brain that flock to the shiniest model that we see and bounce from project to project.  So here are my goals:
 
  • Get these Daemons done for Brawler Bash.  I need to find time and just get them done. Here's is what I have remaining.
    • Keeper of Secrets - If a plastic one does not come out soon I might have to buy the current model.
    • 30 Daemonettes - The skin is basecoated and washed.  Now to do the blues and yellows.
    • 6 Seekers of Slaanesh - Same stage as the remaining Daemonettes.
    • 10 Furies - I had a very creative idea with these, but in reality it didn't turn out as well as I would have liked.  Instead, I am going with the Daemonettes with Tyranid Gargoyle wings.  I have the models, but I need to assemble and convert.  The plan is to have them on brass rod flying stands so they are at variable heights.
    • Herald of Tzeentch - I know he isn't Slaanesh, but I am using the Avatars of War worm looking Sorceror.  He is basecoated, I just need to finish the highlights.
    • One of the large Slaaneshi Exalted chariots (they are just too cool not to assemble).  It is currently sitting in a box.
    • Maybe a block of 30 Horrors painted in the grey, blue, and yellow.  They are assembled, but I want to make some regimental bases as they currently are a pain to rank up.
  • Get a display board done for the Daemons.  I have some great ideas in my head, but until I get the army done, this will have to wait.
  • Paint up more terrain.  You can never have too much terrain.
  • Start up a Mordheim league in the Fall.  Either hold it on a couple of Saturdays, or as part of Wednesday Game Night.  Those who know me, know I love Mordheim.  I found some affordable paper buildings over at Daves Games that would be perfect for a league.
  • Finally, just get a game in once a month.
 Sorry, no models this time.

Skulls for the Land

Sometimes you run across some Warhammer gems while looking at other things in life.  These terrain pieces were all bought at a discount, and the fences and posts were only a $1 each.  The skulls fit in well with the GW terrain that is out there.  It is always worth your time to take a quick peek while visiting those craft stores with your wife or girlfriend.

This is was found in the discount rack of a pet store for less than a few bucks a year ago.  Aquarium pieces are always a good source for terrain. Even has the skulls to fit in :)  It makes for a nice sinister cave or impassable terrain piece.

 I found these painted fences and posts after Halloween for 70% off at a Micheal's Craft store.  I just need to touch some things up and they will make a nice spirit fences.


 These posts actually light up.  I also found these at Micheal's for a $1.
Enjoy!

The Roto-tillers of the Chaos Wastes

Here is my Slaanesh Hellflayer.  This was a fun kit to put together.  The "wheels" were a pain in the rear, but when I construct an exalted chariot in the future I will paint the "wheels" before gluing them together.  I kept the same ol' color scheme.  I hope you like.  Enjoy!
