Painting Procrastination - Models That Intimidate Me

As is often the case when I start painting I start to procrastinate to ensure I never finish the models. At My local club last night we got talking about different models and how they affect your view of game systems. Then it evolved into models you had but had not painted, ones that intimidated in various ways. So here are mine.

   I will go through each group of models and explain why they intimidate me and remain unpainted....

The search for a new Club

   While I was away we moved house. I have moved to sunny Falmouth, although at the moment it seems to be a bit wet and cold (on a side note never move into a house with storage heaters as they are utter tosh), so now I have the unenviable job of finding a new club to play toy soldiers in!

   And that is a representation of my spare room and somewhere in there are my little men.....

Waking Up

   So time has passed and I am, thankfully, still alive. However I find myself woefully ill informed about this new world that I have come popped back into.

 

   G.W has released Daemons, Spartan has a new ruleset, Kingdom Death has done a kickstater, there was a christmas, a new year, a ton of video games and new Mass Effect 3 DLC and to top it all off I have moved house and my wife put all my stuff in the cold garage. 

   At least I can see the sunshine. And I look forward to reading the many blogs that I have missed out on. Now I am going to cleanse the smell of submarine off me, it may take some time.

   Thanks

Hibernating

Well my short time blogging has come to an end. So many projects left half finished, some not even started and some failed. I ship out this weekend and the pre-deployment "funk" has set in so I don't even want to do the things I have to.

  It has been fun and I intend to start up when I can in the new year. This has given me a new found respect for those that write the blogs out there as they are time consuming and crave your attention. To everyone keep writing and painting so I will have lots to read when I get back.

Later then.....much later!

Two Possibilities

Two possibilities exist: Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

In need of an Intervention

I have a problem. Its name is Ebay.

   I have been trying to build up an Epic 40k collection and have found my love of all the game I used to play when growing up. So to supplement what I found in my parent's garage I began to go onto Ebay to get the stuff that is missing or the stuff that I never got.

   However I have gone overboard and now hav unopened boxes of old epic, stuff still on sprues and more boxed game sets than i know what to do with. This weekend I bought a job lot with random stuff in it, someone else's garage find I expect.
