9 days of work for 6 weeks of fun.

     It looks like there will be a Journeyman League at the start of September in my area. This is good timing, as I've been extremely lax on getting anything painted for my Warmachine Cryx army and could definitely use the motivation. My current goal is to paint up quite a bit. A list would look something like:

-pDenny
-x2 Nightwretches
-x2 Deathrippers
-x1 Defiler
-x2 Scavengers
-x2 Stalkers
-x1 Helldiver
- Deathjack
- Erebus
- Nightmare
- Leviathan
- Magnetized Helljack Kit
- x2 Warwitch Sirens
- Withershadow Combine
- x1 Pistol Wraith
- Darragh Wrathe
- x5 Soulhunters
- x10 Mechanithralls
- x10 Bane Knights
- x10 Satyxis Raiders
- x10 Blood Hags (although I already started these girls, so I might finish them up before the League starts)

And that's the list so far. I own everything but the Raiders, so it's not too farfetched of an idea. This'll really get a good deal of airbrush experience in. Until the League starts I'll be getting everything ready so I can begin painting September 1. After the league I plan to open my doors to commission work.

Not to say I'm getting back into Trollbloods, but I managed to grab a steal on Ebay. It hasn't come in yet, and I expect delivery on Monday, but I'm still pretty skeptical that I actually got what I did for the price. A list of what I purchased would be:

For how much, you may be asking? Well, all of it is built and half of it is painted to what appears to be a good quality (good enough that I might only need to do some highlight layers to get it up to my idea of tabletop quality). So 250 bucks seems like a real lowball amount? Yeah, but that's what the buyout was (with free shipping, too!). No idea how that happened. If it ends up not being some sort of lame attempt at a scam (eBay has buyer protection), then I'll have 150 points of Trollbloods to start painting.
