Painting on a train  :o. Sounds like a unit a week would be too easy!


well, that was 2 days in a private cabine, with nottin ales to do but reading, eating and sleeping.....

I think I have some pictures... I will see if I can find them  9-)


As the proud owner of an excitable toddler a couple of days on that train sound very appealing!


I raise your one excitable toddler, to two excitable toddlers and the wife being the one that goes out to work and pays the mortgage, thus leaving me with the little blighters pretty much 24-7... Needless to say, I'm looking forward to when they start school, although talking about having a third is tempting...


Anyway, getting to play Space Hulk today, even if it was in my local GW store against a bunch of kids who didn't have a clue was great. Even getting away from the girls for just a couple of hours helps to relieve things for the following week of endless dish washing, clearing up, cooking, nappy changing, waiting for the eldest to finish on the toilet, and so on...



Better put something OT in this otherwise Lex might get grumpy:

No point in me putting myself up for this, for the reasons outlined above. Whilst I have actually managed to get a bit of painting done recently, I'm waiting until my brush skills have returned properly and I've finished at least five of the Black Templars (40K) that I've been trying to finish for getting on ten years before I return to painting any WM stuff, and then there is that Pegasus I need to finish off. And even then there is my WM Empire and WMA EIR armies that need finishing to proper tournament sizes before I even consider starting any other projects...

@Stomm, if you fancy signing up with an army you've started (making finishing it the goal) that'd be cool. That said, if my experience of one toddler is anything to go by then I can understand that you must be mighty busy! And talking od Space Hulk is cruel, my new set is waiting for me back in the UK and I'm itching to get a game in!

OH, AND AN ANNOUNCEMENT!

Lex has been kind enough to set up a separate area for the Tale of Warmaster Painters and I've posted the (very flexible and changeable) rules over there and opened up a September thread for introductions and early painting. If you're up for the challenge please head on over, and if you aren't then the same applies, I'll certainly be looking for advice and encouragement as things get underway and I'm sure everyone else will feel the same.

Hi guys

This is my first post here and was hoping it wouldnt be to late to sign up for the 'Tale of Warmaster painters'?

It will be with an evil Dogs of War army which is an evr so slight varitation on the trial armies version with just a few units numbers altered and a giant instead of the tuska. (What kind of dogs of war army doesnt have a giant!?  ???)


I dont think I will be able to post the whole army primed to begin with but I will slowely get all the pieces together (alot of it is being converted out of other stuff!)


Hope im not to late!

Hi Angor, it's not to late at all, please do join us. I recognise that avatar from Warseer so I'm pretty excited to see what you come up with - your Chaos army is superb, I still can't get over how cool your ogre character is!

Introductions have just started over on the new thread in the newly created 'Tale of Warmaster Painters' subforum.

Greetings!

This is my frist post here, although I was lurking in the shadows for quite a long time.  ;)

I would love to join the merry company of fellow painters with my shiny host of High Elves. However, in the quest of having the army of 2000 points painted I have already finished a few units. Would that be considered as unfair to other participants? I can post only pictures of the miniatures I am going to paint at the same time as others. I simply know that this project would be a great motivation to keep steady pace of painting for me and I hope there is a way for me to participate in it. Besides I have noticed that no other HE army has been enlisted yet.  :o

Cheers! :)

Hi Swordmaster, of course, no problem. Please do sign up and introduce yourself and your army so far.

Looking forward to seeing the High Elves as they progress and those you've got done already.
