Based 60 darkshards, 2 reaper bolt throwers and finished assembly on the shadowstalkers while watching attack of the clones.

Geez they were fiddly.... damn cloaks and stupid hairdesign. The weakest point of the hair is where they attached it to the sprue...  :x

But they look awesome!  :icon_mrgreen:

Very busy decluttering and giving stuff away I don't want to take with me when we move. So grateful there are a lot of Free your stuff groups on Facebook so that I didn't have to throw things away that can still be useful for others.

Hobbywise, I managed to declutter and pack my hobbystuff today. Pretty satisfied that I only needed two moving boxes (30 x 60 cm, including everything I need for building scenery).

Also continued commission work, only small progress on the Uruk-hai today though.

I would post the Pic of the Untamed Beasts from Warcry but my picture icon on the reply field is now a different format.
Instead of the usual  thing I get a window for the https address. Can’t even type it in manually. Anyone else having picture posting issues out of the ordinary?

Dude ... you are having some issues with the software today!  And me ... I haven't posted a picture here in so long, probably couldn't if I tried.

Agreed. Finally achieved results but thru a hugely annoying process that I guarantee will kill any desire to show pics at all. Doesn’t effect the other site at all. Just appeared here yesterday

Here is a screenshot of the ‘new’ process. I used to just click the little pic button and copy the link from my Wordpress site. Now this window shows up and my link is a blue underlined thing that doesn’t work - [size=78%]https://artobansghost.files.wordpress.com/2020/12/img_1081.jpg[/size]
I’m too much of a Luddite to figure out why this happened. It took me a day to find the stupid white arrow at the top right lol with my last time

I guess just a link to the picture will have to do

FFS!!!

Never mind. In a weird display of memory recall, I remembered clicking something in the ‘look and layout’ option in the setup screen.
All’s well that bloody ends well.  :eusa_wall:

Does this count as hobby related nonsense?

Slow progress on the leather parts:



He still looks a bit dull, even for a dirty orc. More highlights will hopefully change that.

Have spent lots of time trading and selling models and have now secured and glued a unit of 25 6th executioners! Finally! Also a few more heroes, the old cauldron, another reaper bolt thrower, 10 phoenixguards, 5 reavers and 2 eagle eye bolt throwers for my High Elves. Glueing and preparing for priming, although it will have to wait until mars/april. Don't have a garage to use.

Now I have over 300 elves to paint...  :Ohmy:

Omg! I think there’s a term somewhere....oh ya - masochistic 😺

Elves were the hardest models I ever painted. Never got over the trauma as well.

Pile of shame almost at zero. Can’t be arsed to base my chaos yet so I’m messing around with my old BFG thingies. Most of them are broken off the stands so I’m redrilling and filing down the stems to mount them again.
Only ever played 1 game of BFG but I always liked the idea. Never actually painted anything either. Got some trades and the main fleet is still in a box somewhere. Might try something with em but may not as well.

Oooh! Battlefield Gothic ... cool.  I got some space ships that size around here somewhere.  Think it is a different game system though, can't recall.

Well... things kinda snowballed... a lot...  :icon_mrgreen: :icon_mrgreen: :icon_mrgreen:
Dark elves
80 darkshards
50 dreadspears
+ about 30 unbuilt coreelves
39 black guards
29 executioners
Dreadlord on dragon and on foot
Morathi on foot
Cauldron 6th with sorceress ( no witch elves)
9 The shadowstalker warband
BSB
3 reaper bolt throwers
Shadowblade                                  244 models  :Ohmy:   4-5k in 8th

and then the High elves, that started on december 24 with the island of blood... then got crazy...
50 lothern seaguard
36 swordmasters
19 archers
10 reavers
10 phoenixgaurd (need at least 10 more)
2 mages
5 or 8 various characters
2 bolt throwers
1 frostphoenix
1 eagle
1 lion chariot
2 tiranoc chariots,  bits missing for crew...                       144 models, about 2 - 3k points

144 + 244 = 388... with crew we're closer to 400 elves...  :ph34r:

But! Almost everything were traded or bought with money from selling other stuff. So massive savings compared to buying new.
