2014/2015 Hobby Season Results

Its that time already!  An entire year has passed and many models have been built and painted.  I have been checking out everyone's progress in the Dave Weston 2014/2015 Hobby Season To Do, and I have been really impressed!  Great job to everyone who is waging war against grey plastic.  The more models we paint the better!  Thank you to everyone that has been following along.  It got a little choppy for me after my father died, but I think I am finally getting back into the swing of things (I know I have said that before!).  Let's check out my list verses what I accomplished:

Finished Painting Bloodletters of Khorne

Our Summer League is almost over at my FLGS after being extended for one week to give a little more time for the newer players to finish.  We did a small escalation league starting at 200 points week 1 (Kill Team Rules)  and finishing at 750 week 4 (Regular CAD).  I have not done well in the games I played but I am very happy with how the two units I needed to paint turned out.  I wanted to have a few demons on hand in case I wanted to summon with a Weirdboy list so I picked Demons for the league.  It was a nice change of pace from the Orkz.  However, no that I am finished with my League commitment it is time to get back to the Waagh so I can have enough stuff painted for LVO (HOTEL BOOKED, BABY!).  Lets check out the finished product!

Finished painting the Pink Horrors

This Summer sure is going fast.  Our FLGS held a samll escalation league over the past 5 weeks and I have been busy trying to paint some demons.  One of the rules to our new army league was that we needed to have our initial two units painted by the end in order to be eligible for prizes.  My record isn't good enough to win as of now but I think  I am the closest to being finished with the painting (some people haven't even started!).  With a little over a week to go, I am sure I will finish on time.

What I did on my Summer Vacation

I'm back after a long break from work and hobby.  Well, I have worked since my last post... and I did do a little bit of hobby stuff.  I just failed my blog check or something (natural 1!).  I have a lot to cover from the past month so I better get cracking!

Patriotic for the 4th of July?

Hobby Challenge Failed

Well, that happened.  I did not finish my IC's Hobby Progress commitment for may on time.  The Deff Dread is still a ways off (so much detail!), and the Avatars of War Shaman hasn't seen a brush since my last post.  I did go to a FNM (Friday Night Magic) at my local store and drafted some cards.  It was a lot of fun.  I had no idea what any of the cards were going into it so it was a surprise.  I played some EDH (Commander).  It was weird.  Magic was my hobby before Warhammer and it feels like revisiting an old girlfriend.  "Will 40k be jealous?"  That's actually a bit of a stretch, but it was a good distraction.  I did do some Hobby Progress.  Two of my Weirdboyz are complete!
