So Blue has given an excellent overview of the weekend as a whole. I could only echo is commentary. Let's just say I had a blast, and it was really good to visit and put face's with names. So on to the loot. Blake aka Kaaleb Hordes handed out the event mini Bolydirk, thanks Foundry and Kev Adams for this treasure that's him in the center.
As for the rest I scored these on the cheap, no citadel marauder oldhammer RoC propainted then dissolved with simple green oop 1000.00 by it now prices here!
So what did I get well. I got Slambo up there in the middle, as well as the two chaos warriors on each of his flanks. I also scored the chaos knight torso with pigtails, to add some more estrogen to my chaos forces. Lastly I snagged the Terminator captain on a whim, just because.....well because Don Sargent got me fired up to play Space Hulk!
On a side note, with an 11 hour drive on the way home it gave me sometime to think. I got a crazy notion to remount my whole chaos army on 30x30mm bases or 30x60mm bases for the cavalry. Several of my figures have swords sticking out at weird angles that 25mm bases make extremely tight to rank up sometimes. So just wanted to see what anyone thought about this idea before I started removing all my figures!
Great loot, please add BOYLdrick in your priority paint list !
ReplyDeleteAs for rebasing, I really think it's a big hassle. I have the same problem with my units so what I do is that i tak ethe time to find one position where they all fit nicely and then I write their coordinates in the unit under the base so that I can find it easily next time I play. However, when I build new units now, I try to think about that before ;)
BOYLdrick is already primed up. I have also come to that conclusion on the bases. I really don't want to take the time rebasing and repainting all the names. Thanks for talking me off the ledge dude! =)
ReplyDeleteI've really enjoyed catching up on all the excellent comic style reports. Some nice loot there as well. Glad you stuck with the 25mm bases. I have come across some serious ranking problems with some Mantic figures I did recently. I need to plan more carefully.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sean....I have much more in the works. I'm glad I stuck with the 25mm bases as well. I tried one figure out and it just did not look right. Plus as stated previously repainting aaaaallllll those names....ugh! No thanks I will stick with the tried and true.
