40k, Praetorian Imperial Guard

Hi guys, some good news – the Curious Constructs/Zinge kickstarter has shipped, and I have taken delivery of a range of gun platforms, and eight of these little beauties:

I now need to figure out how to cram four of them onto a Chimera hull for some steampunk V1 rocket Manticore badness! This might be tricky due to the wings, but I’m sure that I’ll think of something.  Continue reading →

40k, Scions

Super-fast post today – I added another completed(ish) Valk over the weekend, ready to field tonight… She’s identical to the other one, so yeah… nothing else to say really! I suppose I’d better read up on the rules for flyers!

Equipment, spray painting

Hi folks, a very quick post this morning. I took delivery of a new toy yesterday, a HS-E420 Spray booth (wtf?!?). I’ve always struggled a bit with spray painting – I’m too lazy to go outside to do it, (plus the weather has been crap), but I’m lucky enough to have a garage… trouble is, I had to rely on holding my breath and spraying in very short bursts. I ended up giving myself a headache while spraying up the last Valkyrie – there was a lot of spray painting required and I must have breathed in some fumes. Now, I love my hobby, but I have no wish to damage my health over toy soldiers… a solution was needed! A quick bit of interwebbery, and I found the HS-E420 Spray booth for mid £80s:

40k, Battle Report, Scions
