What have you modelled or painted today?

[Spartan Dave]

Oh god... I wish I hadn't asked the colour scheme now! Haha 

That's funny, I rather like them myself

[dboeren]

Painted an Orc Battlecruiser today.  My order at the LGS was delayed until Monday, as soon as they come in I'll paint the last Orc ship and start working on my Dwarven fleet and after that the Elves.

Edit:  Worked on my Dragonlord Battleship, it needs a final inspection but I believe that it's done except for one final wash on the bronze bits.  Can't wait to get off work and go pick up my new ships!  Found some gel superglue that I'm hoping will make it less painful to do the rigging on my last Human ships.

Edit: Dragonlord Battleship is done!  Most of my new ships came in, last night I cleaned them all to prepare them for painting.  The Dwarf boxed set has been primed, I'll be starting on those tonight.  The ships that were back-ordered are a blister of Dwarf HC's and an Orc Assault Ship.

Finished the mixed frigate squadron and the Kraken bluff tokens.

Haha, who'd have thought you would be painting raven destroyers?

looking good mate

[average joe]

Love 'em.  Got four.  That's why I'm such a RD advocate  .  Okay I bought them before I knew anything about them.    Currently they represent 260 of my fleet's 845 points.  As it is I can't even field all my frigates/variants.  Waiting on the heavies to arrive.  I bought a flagship it's on its way, and I need to purchase another dragon.

Beats me, I've only got two Raven Destroyers so far.  I might ask quietus if he wants to split a pack so we can each have 3 of them to field a full squad.  Probably can wait until after I get my current lot painted though

[average joe]

I'm still building myself up to fielding them in squadrons of three 195 points is a big chunk of points.  I suppose in time I'll have to try it, but only in a really big game.  And only when I can't field another battleship or heavy cruiser squadron or cruiser squadron or dragon squadron and I've maxed out my frigate allowance.   

[IronJaw]

Cut out all of the about 180 slices of foam last night for the 18 Icebergs for the Georgia Tournament. Now I get to glue them together tonight and probably get to cut them into shape tomorow.

Keep working man.  We need the terrain.

[dboeren]

So how do they pack, man?

Like this:


The empty hole is for my other Assault Ship but it was back-ordered.


Thanks for your help in making the iceberg terrain!

[dboeren]

I painted a Dwarf starter tonight, 10 ships done.  Man, are those guys easy!

I also attached all the sails to my Elf fleet and primed the Dwarf subs for painting later.  I still need to assemble the bases w/ brass rod for my two War Dragons and figure out what my color scheme will be for the Elves.

[dboeren]

Painted my Dwarf subs tonight, 2 Belchers and 2 Krakens.

I'm making good progress on the Elves too.  Hulls, masts, and sails are basecoated, need to do some cleanup, a wash, and then some of the detail stuff.  Oh yeah, and I haven't started on the War Dragons yet...

[average joe]

Dboeren, how about a photo or two.

Finished the last 4 of 12 ID frigates.  The batteries in the digital camera croaked and I don't have any fresh ones laying around.  So no pictures of my stuff.  Just picture my other ones but with red stripes on the turrets instead of white stripes or not striped at all.  All I got left to do on the ID until the new arrivals is a mixed cruiser squadron.  Yippee.  Dboeren, yeah the ID are easy to paint.  I likes 'em that way. 

[dboeren]

I'm just about done with most of my Elf ships, but I still need to do the Dragons.  Once they're done too I'll post some pics, how about that?  Should be tomorrow night I think.

[average joe]

cool.

3 ID, 4 TE left for my stuff and then I've got to start my friends two fleets, BG and IH.  Aarrggh, I'm getting carpal tunnel syndrome.
