...that I really should be updating this blog more and providing more actual content (including the rants and opinions promised in the header).
Thing is, I'm having one of my frequent creative motivation fails due to combinations of work stress, tiredness and other stuff I won't go into here. I want to paint and stick and convert stuff (I know all you modern hipster kids use more exciting terms like "kit-bashing" now, but to me it's "conversion", always has been always will be... :P ) but the motivation to actually do so just isn't there.
I need an incentive. Something to really aim for.
What I need is the definite promise that I'll get a battle once I have x points* of Orks/Marines/Chaos/Flying Monkeys painted.
So the next step is to find someone willing to make that committment... I am a modern man, and not afraid of such things, but I'm aware that it's a big step for some.
*Only experienced wannabe intellectuals should use algebraic terms in the course of normal writing. Do not try this at home, kids.
Painting, army building, opinions, rants.

D&D Miniatures
So, I now have the miniatures to paint up for the rest of the party... well, kind of. The Sister of Sigmar I was intending to convert into a Cleric is still MIA, but I do have the Paladin (Reiksguard Knight on foot) and Rogue (that Mordheim Kislevite ranger with the ridiculous tits) ready and awaiting undercoat.
Space Wolves
Got the new Codex yesterday, plus a box of power armoured Wolves...
I now have a Wolf Guard Battle Leater with frost axe, a Lone Wolf with power sword, 5 Grey Hunters and 5 Blood Claws... I've got enough left over to make another three or four models if I can find some damned legs for them. I think an army may be on the cards. And a proper one at that, not the aforementioned use-the-bits-to-convert-Wolfy-looking-Chaos-Marines (which may still come later 'cause it's an awesome idea).
Of course dopey twunt that I am it turns out that at some point I demolished the Games Day 2003 Wolf Priest for a conversion that never happened. Go me.
