WIP

I am sorry I do not have any pics yet-

But tonight I worked on hills and other terrain for the store, Gamer Gambit, and am trying to get three terrain boards with hills and other stuff done by the tournament while cranking on my army.

Magnetized and primed/ sub- assembled one Ball Pred tonight. Going to do the other Friday- Saturday. Yeah, I know.... and I plan to paint it too!

I am trying hard for Best Painted Army, but I doubt I will get it with so little time. I mean I could proxy my Blood Ravens for Blood Angels and have a shot, but that is just dishonest...

Here is my 1750 point list. Light on troops, I know, but I am hoping that if the Assault Marines are slaughtered I can at least contest with so much Fast Armor!

Actually, I feel kinda naked without my Land Raider. But- I digress. Here is the list:

Here is a potential BA list- taking advantage of the rhino-chassied vehicles as much as I can (limited by the models I own now) for a tourney this Sunday- REMEMBER- I am limited to the models I own, so it is not ideal. I have a LOT of troops choices, but they seem to bog me down.

Thanks for any feedback.

Now- tell me all the ways I am screwing up !

PAINT! I NEED TO PAINT!

For my birthday I recieved a Chaos Space Marine Battle Force, which means I have over three hundred models waiting for me to finish painting them. I think it is about time I got started.

I use the assembly line method because when you are fdone with a goup, it is that much more satisfying, in my humble opinion. Looking at a whole line of mini's all brightly painted and ready for war is one of my favorite parts of this hobby.

BUT- it is kind of daunting, having SO MANY models to try and finish. I find it hard to motivate sometimes. It just seems overwealming, you know what I mean?

Anyway, the other bit of news I have is this: I have a fully updated version of Final Cut Pro for me to edit my videos on so I can finally (hopefully) start posting some vids of my work and putting them online.

One of the projects I have going right now is a Warhammer village. My friend had the manor house kit and all of the buildings, fences, towers etc. that came with it. What a huge project this has turned out to be!

I am scratch building a lot of other buildings as well, including a little outhouse I have in the pics I took of the village. Here is the Temple next to the outhouse on a hill all made by me. The temple is of course a kit.



I have a lot of plans for this Warhammer village, not only these amazing plastic kits but the buildings I am planning to build to flesh everything out more. I think there will be around fifteen buildings when I am all done.

Thought I would throw up a few more pics of the Bling Orc Trukk and the Water Mining Platform stuff I am throwing together as well. Lastly, some of the arctic hills are in the bunch.





More updates coming soon!

I am WAY behind already!

1'750 pt. tournament a week from Sunday.

I am trying to paint that many points in the short amount of time I have from now until then. I have everything I need for the list I have chosen, but I am not firm on the list, I have stuff to take out tanks AND infantry, however I am going in at this point without any psycher or anti-psycher ability.

Oh- I am fielding Blood Angels and NOT Blood Ravens, shoudl be interesting... I am not used to playing an assaulting army.

I promise soon I am going to get pics and vids up of the other projects I am working on.

Current Projects on the Workbench

Welcome back- got a beer? Good....

So I am making some Fenris Terrain for my friend's Space Wolves army, and I have tried some experimenting with the foam cutter and making ice- cliffs with lots of parallel lines intersecting at wild and odd angle, sort of inspired by the Fortress of Solitude. The guys at the shop loved it, but it was no stretch. I have seen some arctic terrain that is TRULY cool and inspiring, and I plan on working some more on that this week and posting some pics up here of the finished product.

Also on the workbench:
Fallout Terrain
Ocean Mining platform terrain
Desert terrain
Painting a Wave Serpent
Modeling a destroyed wave serpent
Warhammer village

Another thing I am going to start doing is You Tube videos, not only of my projects, but hopefully some battle reports too. Let me know what you think and if you have any ideas about what I can do to make something exceptional for the Fenrisian Gaming Board.

More to come!

-The Scandalousrogue

Welcome! Pull up a chair- have a beer on me and lets shoot the breeze. Especially if we are talking about miniature war gaming and role playing games terrain and accessories.

One thing you should definitely know about me is I am an alpha-dork. I am a nerd and a model builder. I am a gamer and I am an historian, and I am fiercely proud of these facts. I can chat about gaming or military history all night long, and if we are drinking, pretty soon I am going to start singing...

But I digress. This blog is about war games terrain and all things miniature. Right now I am working on several projects and I will share ideas and tips here as well as ask for your feedback, ideas and comments.

There are a couple of pieces that I have almost finished and I will get some pics up here real soon. Until then, stay inspired! And may your brushes stay pointy!

P.S.- Anyone have any ideas on how to make cool looking arctic terrain?
