Skarlock - alt caster

My skarlock came in the mail today! What is a skarlock? Well it's my alternate caster for my cryx army. What's an alt caster? Basically they cast spells for free as long as they're alive, which usually is a long time if you hide them in the back and behind cover (cover being the mechanothralls I hope get here soon).

So, I give you the (quite hard to assemble) skarlock.




I also got my night wretches, however they need to be washed. I have to say I'm excited that I don't have to glue jaws on later, since they have the aoe acid attack built in.

Funding newletter

Ah, so I forgot to do this last night!

Anyway I'll keep it short, we got $1200 :D

I feel bad though, out of $20,000 and we got 6%.


(insert complaint about getting 100$ less than last year)

Bonejacks! 3 of them

Managed to assembled and spray paint 3 bonejacks. No clue what they do, but I'll be painting them tomorrow and tonight.



Warwitch Deneghra complete

New Picture!
(to show scale & and because she is so tiny!)


So I lied and uploaded both in order to show off the colors better/more matte. The model is matte as hell, no shine at all, I made sure the metallic paints were muted with washes, necromancers shouldn't polish their armor, they should be raising the dead steam-powered machines that fight for them.

For my first model of warmachine I decided to paint my warcaster. She came in 3 piece, all of which were painted separately. I spent about 5 hours of actual painting time, trying out different color patterns and such. These pics were taken in yellow light and therefore suck ass, I'm going to get a white bulb for that lamp tomorrow. Reason for this color scheme, she's a necromancer, shes cold and dead, very matte and dark scheme.





And one "in-progress" pic

WARMACHINE is here! Yay!

So holy crap what a good day. First I live blog at an event and get food at that and another event, then warmachine comes in the mail. Basically on a whim, just like with warhammer, we (I) bought 3 of the 4 starting armies, their paints, and their power decks. For the next 3 days, I will be updating with unboxing photos, assembly photos, and painting photos, as obviously you have to paint your miniatures before you can play them. Oh this is going to be so much fun! :D
