Happy Holidays! ... and a return to normal.

I've had a decent painting break, and once I finish a bulk of 40ish chaos cultists I'm grinding out for a friend I'll be ready to start back pretty hardcore on some painting this year. I'm hoping by the end of the year I've purchased little and painted quite a bit, so look forward to that to make the short list for my resolutions for 2015.

I had a great holiday vacation, and hope you have as well. I got some cool board games and some other nifty stuff, but the biggest gift I got was the opportunity to shop at some gaming stores in an area that is a bit repelled by 40k and Fantasy. So the stores had some pretty old stock, including Blood Bowl, Necromunda, Epic, and other delights. I knew these stores would have some cool stuff, so I brought the money. Now that I'm broke, my collection has grown drastically. So I'm anxious to get some serious building time to get things together.



The 40k campaign should be fun, and it'll be pretty good to get a fresh 40k crowd (even though they are veterans) playing at the store regularly. I plan to bring some SnGs lists, as I don't think many of the players will be looking for competitive play (but those lists will be waiting for anyone willing to play -those- games).

While I expect many very cool and interesting updates in the future and in the year 2015, I'll leave a pretty heavily converted Inquisitor who will act as my General for the 40k campaign:

Malleus Inquisitor Conversion

Malleus Inquisitor Conversion

I like the way he came out, although I was trying really hard to keep him from power armor, but I was afraid hacking up the model would create an irreversible mess. I also opted for a small base (Not 32mm) to represent custom "normal human height" power armor instead of Space Marine power armor size. I can't wait to start painting him!
