Hobby 101: Color Theory

Today I was reading on some forums and came across this great video on color theory and how to use it with our models. Very good information here, just a little dry due to the subject.

So if you are new to painting or looking for some help to make your stuff "look" better, check out this link.

Word of the day: Scouting.

Lately I have been looking at sisters of battle lists, and one unit always seems to make it into my lists. Surprisingly it is not death cultists. Dominions are my unit of choice, and I have have been doing alot of thoughts on it. Scouting seems to be an important reason and an important tactic not used alot.

Warning Will Robinson!!

It's been a weird weekend. Turkeyday was spent with the flu, and I had to work the weekend. To top it all off my phone and computer take a dump on me. So all my pictures and links are gone and I'm stuck on my wife's laptop. What else can December hold for me.......

Happy Turkeyday!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Saturday Hobby Progress

Here are some quick shots of my hobby progress I got done today.

I have to say I love the vindicator kit. It was very fun to assemble and the "fit" was very good. Hopefully we get some good warm weather so I can do alot of priming to stock pile for the winter.



What's Playing this Week!

This week I have some modeling and painting to do for an upcoming rtt in Minneapolis I'm going to. My painting always goes in spurts and this week will be no different.

The good thing about it this week, is all of my podcasts I listen to have new shows out! I have 8+ hours of entertainment to listen to while I paint this week!

Sisters of Battle: First Blood





This last Sunday I headed over to a friends house for a couple games of 40k. I really wanted to try out the SoB codex and he wanted to play against it too. We also decided to use the new battle missions for the SoB out of the dreadfleet WD.
