The Metal!

Howdy folks, back from the brink once again to bring you exciting news and painting updates...... oh wait. Nope.

So the last 2 weeks I've been back on 12 hour shifts.... which means lack of painting, but thatnkfully before that slog of work began I was able to go down with some mates for the weekend to see Sabaton and Dragonforce in the Iron Works in Inverness.

Truly an awesome gig and a much better way of spending my weekend I must admit..... painting your army... pfft I say.


So the gig was awesome, I met a very nice man we dubbed 'Gandalf the Metal and Thor' this guy (Shown above) is epic enough to deserve both those titles. Also I got to meet one or two of the members of Sabaton in a bar called Hootenanny in Inverness, much awesomeness insued.


So once again I've dodged some painting and not really informed you of much but my almost interesting life. Thats not strictly true, next Febuary is one of my close friends 50th Birthday and one of the people responsible for my true love of Warhammer in general, so in his honor we intend to do a large scale fantasy game. This wouldn't be a problem if I hadn't given my sizeable dwarf army away to a friend, leaving me with no army, I decided then to buy a massive amount of Orc's and Gobbo's and use those a few months ago, and now that we draw close and for the game everything must be painted, I'm now s***ting myself that I won't get it done, but now that I'm not going to be in Glorius Scotland during January/Febuary I probably won't manage to take part anyways, Although I've painted 10 Spider Riders which I might post on another date.

So for now once I get off shift that is, I'll be back to work on my Chaos Vindicator asap as per the painting poll. Also I've built my bikes but I've not managed to build.... you guessed it.... my All Metal Obliterators.

Metal Models are the bane of my GW related exsistance and will forever haunt my destiny.... oh also another thing which has annoyed me and consumed my time is Magna Carta 2, if any game gets you into a mood to ragequit it will be that one. Thank god for CoD or I'd probably have killed.... again.

Peace out, 'Hey again Alana!!!' and remember to spread the word, also the butter or your toast will taste awful.
