Yay!

I officially have a painted army! My wood elves! Finally after so many years (and $$$).

Anyways I am attending a tournament this weekend, thats what motivated me to try to finish my army. I was almost derailed a few times...

Anyways I would like to thank my friends for keeping me motivated! I will be posting photos later :)

Multiple things...

First for Warhammer Fantasy...

I finished 6 of my Scouts for my Woodelves...they aren't completely finished to my liking (aka a lot of detail, such as the bows, and strips of leather), I do plan on finishing them when I feel I have more time. But as for now they are tournament worthy (aka 3 colors). The drybrushing technique I am using is alright...they look good from afar... but you can see the sudden contrast between colors.

I have 16 dryads almost complete too... they just need to be inked...still have 8 and the dryad branch wraith to work on.

As for 40K I have an army list that I can be proud of (and have the models for!)... tell me what you think?

1700pts

Farseer w/Doom

7 firedragons and 1 exarch with firepike (crack shot and tank hunter).
Waveserpent w/TL Shuriken Cannon

9 Banshees and 1 exarch w/Executioner
Waveserpent w/TL Scatter Laser

9 Direavengers and 1 exarch w/bladestorm and 2 avenger cannons
Waveserpent w/TL Shuriken Cannon

9 Direavengers and 1 exarch w/bladestorm and 2 avenger cannons
Waveserpent w/TL Shuriken Cannon

10 Defender Guardians w/ Starcannon
1 Warlock with Embolden

5 Rangers

2 Wraithlords w/ 2 Flamers, Bright Lance and Eldar Missle launcher

For larger games I would have a Autarch and some eldar jetbikes... I also have 5 Darkreapers, a Viper with Scatter laser... But for now I think the best would be to buff up my HQ and and more troops (aka Eldar Jetbikes)

Sigh...blackmailed

So the friend that is letting me use his Tyranids has "persuaded" me to paint some miniatures for him as "payment". Here is some of the initial dry brushing.

HAHAHA, I do intend to testing Armypainter on these guys after I paint the metal bits. So hard to find the metal bits!!

After a grueling week (working on it late at night :P), I have finally finished my Chaos Lord/Hero riding a Chaos Daemonic Mount (aka Chaos Lion????). Need to figure out what to do with the base though....

For Chaos!

So with the new Warriors of Chaos (WoC), I have had a few games with a friend of mine. We were both a bit rusty, and a little unfamilar with 7th edition rules.

We set up a 1500pts game (my list initially: http://www.warseer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=184732&highlight=Warriors+Chaos ). He mopped the floor with me on that game. I made some key mistakes that cost me my Chaos Knights (CK) and he had a powerful Metal spell which decimated my WoC (and my magic defence was too week)!

Anyways we had another match up a few weeks later, I had made some major changes in my list and so did he (he didn't like how his handgunners preformed). I brought lots of magic this time (2 bound items, and 2 lvl 2 sorcerers) and he brought a steam tank! He sugguested I try making a big unit of Chaos Warriors (CW) too.

After our bloodly game, it ended up as a minor victory in my favor (only by a few points, skin of my teeth!)

We later tried another rematch after a few weeks, we had similar lists again this time. There was a big match up between the steam tank and the CW. I was fairly lucky. Because of some failed steam generation rolls the steam tank was left hanging. The Steam tank and a few key units were destroyed. I lost nothing....and controlled a few table quarters. We assumed a Massacre. For CHAOS!

I have a serious problem....

So I haven't gotten my act together....I have conned one of my friends into letting me use his Imperial guard. You heard it right, I'm not even playing fantasy at this tournament anymore!

On a lighter note I have picked up some Warriors of Chaos models, a whole army actually! Yeah...I have a serious problem...
