Back to the front, with a laundry list in front of me

After a bit of a sabbatical, I've returned to my post! I got through the semester, for which I'm very grateful, and I'm waiting to get started with my research internship next month. In the meantime, however, I have a bit of time to paint. And what a list!

Here's what I got done in the past two days:

TLLC Razorback "Corinth"
Jump Pack Chaplain "Erasmus"

Currently working on:
Attack Bike
5 Assault Marines (almost finished, the shoulder pads need to be painted then glued in place.)
Missile Launcher Marine (For flexibility. Though I'm not sure why I bother. I've currently come to hate missile launchers, due to my scatter dice deciding that they hate me!)

Still to come:
3 Tactical Squad Sergeants
5 Heavy Weapon Specialists
5 Standard Terminators
1 Tactical Squad, potentially converted into Sternguard Vets
1 Standard Bike
1 OOP Terminator Librarian
10 Assault Terminators (D is going to hate my guts...)
Bits to finish my Land Raider project

Also, there is another secret project being worked on, and I will be posting on that (potentially in its own blog) after I get "done" with my Marines. Though, quite frankly, I don't think I'll ever be done. I've come to the realization that for the hobbyist, an army is never done, only abandoned. Unless, of course, you have the patience and capital (or outside help and capital) to complete an entire Chapter of marines, and therefore have all the options you could ever dream of for developing an army. Alas, I doubt I shall ever have a complete thousand plus man chapter, but it does create such mental images...

I digress. Pictures to come soon!

Coming down the pipes

I got in another team game a few nights ago (no bat rep, unfortunately) and my team-mate and I won. Go us! 1500 points a player, Dawn of War, annihilation, we won 9 KPs to 6.

Now that the jubilation is over, I thought I'd share what's currently on my work table awaiting their fates:

1 Land Raider Chassis
1 Master of the Chapter
1 Devestator Squad
1 metal Veteran w/Lightning Claws & Jump Pack (counts as Shrike)
4 Tactical marines, final equipment fate undecided
5 Terminators
5 Assault Marines w/ Jump Packs
1 Jump Pack Chaplain to be stripped and repainted.
1 Razorback

Hopefully I'll be able to get some work done soon. I have a few days off for Easter break, but I have some other obligations to attend to first, as well as some tests coming up after we get back to school. Hopefully, once I get this stuff painted, there will be pictures to prove it.

Thanks for dropping by! Feel free to leave me a comment, if the mood strikes you.
