Skaven fun

I had the fortunate opportunity to assemble 40 of the new GW Skaven clanrats this past week.  Those rats were a DREAM to put together compared to the old style minis.  The kit consists of three parts plus a base with minimal mold lines.  The DoomWheel was a major pain to assemble sans instructions, but after a bit of tinkering, I got it figured out.  Pics to come!

Steampunk hotness!

Got a warjack that you want to highlight by making the most awesometastic,(yeah, I made that one up), base for?  Check out Skullcrafts.com and purchase their Steampunk basing kit.  For 30 bones you get everything you need to build massive amounts of bases, all with a Warmachine/steampunk theme.  They also have a few nice tutorials for base building here.

Try em out!

No IB

Iron Building isnt gonna happen. I didnt get anywhere near finished with my first 500 pts. I'm finishing up the genestealers and the broodlord, and I'll most likely finalize the three warriors and 8 homagaunts. Friday I picked up two boxes of the new space wolves, a box of wolf guard terminators, the codex, and the rune priest character. I have a ton of stuff to take pics of. Hopefully I can get them posted this week.

Snoddy node

This week has been a Iron Builder crusher for me. I'm fighting an upper respiratory infection and have done absolutely ZERO painting. So needless to say, unless I get better fast and have a mad painting session tomorrow night, Saturday's deadline wont be made for the Iron Builder competition, and I'll just bow out. Might be for the best anyway, as the new Space Wolf models are being released tomorrow, and they'll get me hankerin' to finish my wolf army.

Ah well.. Cest la vie...
