November Paint Challange


Off to a great start with my personal painting challenge.  I’ve successfully painted 40 models for the month of November and I’m quite pleased with my self.  Most are only tabletop quality, but I tried to push myself with some new techniques.  I was very happy with the male ogre I did where I was working with layering skin tones.  The blending wasn’t the greatest but from a step back you can see the tone variations.




For December, I’ve set the goal of assembling and painting all of the mini’s for Warhammer Quest: Blackstone Fortress.  A friend and I will be getting into the campaign for that in January.

Journeyman Jan. 2017

In an effort to bring in newer players I helped convince our local press ganger we should start off 2017 with a new journeyman league.  I thought it would it would give an opportunity to players who had purchased or received battle boxes over Christmas a chance to hop into our local meta.  Most of the local guys are starting with just new casters and playing the battle box with factions they already have but I decided to knock out the Skorne I had gotten with the two player Hordes box I had purchased to start my Trollbloods. I’m having no trouble painting the Trollbloods but I was afraid that the Skorne would sit on the shelf much like my circle has.  With this league I can knock them out and have a 75 point list completed and then happily move onto the Trolls. Why two Hordes factions all of a sudden?  Honestly I’ve been a bit frustrated with Cryx in its current incarnation and have been a bit overly affected by the Privateer Press forums doom and gloom.  I ...

To their shock they realized they had forgotten their names. The hunting party renamed themselves, Slowy, Pumpkin, TriPod and Motorboat. Eventually they discovered a huge winged monster in a strange tree. The strange Phoenix warped reality around it and swooped in to attack the intruders.  The party fought desperately trying to deal with the time dilation the creature caused and the stresses it placed on their minds.  Pumpkin fell during the fight, leaking blood from his eyes,ears, nose and mouth.Tripod lost her name, she became a girl with no name.  The creature was eventually slain but it caused a heavy toll on the party.  Motorboat’s future was shredded, causing infertility. Worse the encounter had aged her an...
