Manic Monday # 83

 


So still no painting done, house is still under construction, still working too many hours.....Same old song and dance.

Now for the Good, Bad, and Ugly

The Bad: 

Mighty Brush is blowing out their decals for ummm reasons. I really loved Luther's Decals for my Raptors so I bought a few more sheets to get me through what I have....I hope.

The Ugly: 

My preorders from Frontline Gaming arrived:  I preordered 2 set of cards, Pot of Corvus Black Air, Horus Hersey Heavy weapon set 1 (Heavy Bolter and Missile Launcher), and Horus Heresy Heavy Weapon Set 3 (Volkite Culverin, Autocannon, Lascannon). I received Horus Heresy Weapon Set 3 and 2 (Heavy Flamer, Multi Melta, and Plasma Cannon). Decided to keep set 2 and pick up set 1 next time I'm in a store. 






The Good:

Thursday I was finally able to pick up my Forge World stuff from the FB member  from USPS Office. So excited! All of it was New in Package. 



Plus my Warhmmer+ Year 2 subscription model and Pop Goes the Monkey Combi Meltas showed up too. 



Hobby Time:

Friday I built the Spartan Land Raider......OMG was it a pain. But I was done with all but 10 Mk VI Marines from Age of Darkness box and then..... 


another 40 Mk VI marines showed up. So now up to 50 Mk VI Marines to build....


The built XIX Legion so far


Saturday I decide to start finish basing my built models, I still need to do the pumice on the Deliverers bases, But Praetor, Primus Medicae, Warmonger, 30 Tactical Marines, Contemptor, and Storm Eagle's bases are done.

Manic Monday # 82

 Well still no progress on the house so while we are awaiting construction I can continue constructing my Raven Guard for Horus Heresy!




Well with my days off I continued working on my Sicaran finishing the turret and sponson weapons:



After that I began building my Contemptor Dreadnought





Next it was fixing the scale of the Cataphractii Terminators by adding a spacer on the waist


Which spiraled into build the rest of the 15 man Deliverer squad..



and I did start some basing.

Manic Monday # 81



Ugh love being a home owner......more construction on floors. Pantry, Laundry room, living room all are being replaced.

So with my house under construction my paint area is now a storage area. Entropmancer and I are splitting the special weapon set, and I purchased a plastic Sicaran. 

This weekend I preordered the Autocannon/ Lascannon/ Volkite Culverin weapon set (to split with Entropmancer) , 2 sets cards and my other heavy weapons (Missile Launcher/ Heavy Bolter).  One of the FB members had NIB Corvus Corax, Mor Deythan, Dark Fury, and 2 Mk VI shoulder pads for sale so I scoped them up. And pulled the Storm Eagle I got in trade many years ago out of storage and ordered another 40 more MK VI marines. Still another contemptor, a leviathan, and a another Sicaran.

 Well here is the progress

Sicaran hull built

2 15 man Tacticals and Praetor!

Did order a Dice Tray from the Dice Must Flow and patches from Family Adventures
 


Since I am going all MK IV need to modify tank crews 


Shadow Wing!
