Stuff & Things

It appears I've been neglecting my poor wee blog again. Not that any bugger reads it, mind. ;)

Lamenter Captain is nearly done! Just need to finish the backpack and base. Hurrah!

I have just started playing Infinity and have the Caledonian Highlander starter set ready for priming.

I am also enthusiastically embracing Age of Sigmar and am combining elements of the Khorne Goretide with the forces of Grandfather Nurgle in the form of some Putrid Blightkings, Plaguebearers, Nurglings, and a sorcerer who is so old he's a couple of mm shorter than everyone else and made of lead. I also have an ancient Champion of Khorne who I may use as a Lord in place of the dude from the AoS box. Also, I am finally getting around to painting a load of Vampire Counts stuff.

AND I've just bought my first Forgeworld model: the limited ed. Legion Centurion who I will be painting in World Eaters colours.

Two-thousand and Thirteen

Well, as some of you will have noticed, the world failed to end on the 21st. We also failed to enter a new age of enlightenment and harmony. So there is still likely to only be war in the grim darkness of the far future.

With this in mind I am planning a project that will see me through the next year. It turns out if I set myself Proper Targets rather than Vague To Do Lists I get shit done (I won NaNoWriMo this year, for example) so I will come up with some Proper Targets for 2013 with the intent of actually finishing a damn army.

I am planning a Chaos Marine army, based loosely on ideas I've had knocking about for a while. The basic concept is a Space Wolf Great Company who have been corrupted by Nurgle. I was originally going to do Khorne Space Wolves, but the problem there is that Khorne Space Wolves are REALLY FUCKING OBVIOUS, and though I lapse once in a while I am a Nurgle worshipper at heart. Oh how I praise Grandfather Nurgle for all the colds I get. No! That wasn't sarcasm! Wait, what's that Nurgling doing? No! Not in my trous- AARRRGGHH!!!
