Sorry it's been quiet for so long, not really had much to blog about recently.

Anyway I finished off the Terminators for Richard's 1000 Sons, so that's another 19 points to ad for the year.

Currently I have the final 10 Chaos Marines close to being finished, just need to finish some highlighting and black lining, and then I just have to paint a Icon bearer and 4 Lascannon wielding Havoks and I'll be finished.



In between finishing the Terminators and getting the final 15 CSM from Richard I was planning to paint up a few of my Pulp City figures during a week off from work that I'd booked. Unfortunately I ended up feeling pretty crappy for most of the week so only got a little work done on one model, The Gentleman.



He's not completely finished yet, but I only need to do some work on the guns and the base & he'll be done. I'm really happy with the way he's turning out, I've tried to give him a darker complexion that I normally paint to give him a more Latino look to match his background and I've probably got more layers painted onto the suit than any model I've ever painted. I think it's come out pretty well, don't you think?

Right, so with 2009 almost done, now my thoughts turn to 2010, and plans for painting are getting laid down. Obviously I'm virtually incapable of actually seeing most of my plans through, as the past 2 years worth of blogs will attest to, however, I'm not going to let that stop me from trying again:)

Currently my plans are as follows:

1 - Finish Richard's Devourers for Confrontation
2 - Paint Rob's Dark Elf Warhammer Fantasy army
3 - Paint up and start my solo fantasy campaign using Two Hour Wargames' Warrior Heroes rules
4 - Pulp City
5 - Malifaux

I may also pick up a few more bits for my 40k Red Scorpions Marines so that I can play some games at the club with a balanced force at around the 2000 points mark. Crimson Skies is always a possibility as well, along with some models for roleplaying with if I run another adventure, I don't know what yet, that will wait until Steve's run us through his Star Wars campaign to a natural break point and I'll poll the guys then to see what they want to do.

Well that's all for now, I hope you all have a good Christmas and get all the pewter & plastic that you asked for.

More soon.
