Recent works
Having a child is a life change. A cliche but true. My wife has been wonderful to give me the opportunity to work on my hobby. I have to say these last few months have been fantastic. I felt I have accomplished so much more than I have in the last 10 odd years! I also had some motivation as well. A one day tournament held in Edmonton. All this was possible thanks to my wife!
I took a regular space marine list with no special characters :). I tried to theme my army around the Salamander chapter combat doctrine
The List!
HQ
Librarian w. Terminator armour and Storm Shield (Null Zone and Gate of Infinity)
Elites
Dreadnaught w. Multi melta, storm bolter
6 Terminators w. Thunderhammers and Storm Shields
Troops
2x 10 Marines w. Multimeltas and Flamers (in a Rino)
10 Marines w. Lascannon and Meltagun (in a Lasplas Razorback)
10 Marines w. Plasmacannon and Plasmagun
Fast Attack
Landspeeder Typhoon w. heavy bolter
Landspeeder w. Multimelta and Hvy Flamer
Heavy Support
2x Vindicators w. Siege shields
The tournament was good. I would have to say, I had some bad luck coupled with some bad tactical choices. You live and learn. I would defiantly take this army again, the Plamsacannon Squad did better than I expected and so did my vindicators. But my Terminators did not. I really rolled poorly for their armour save and they preformed poorly in combat against event the most basic troops. Oh well, I was thinking of converting up a squad of Sternguard to add to this army to swap them with.
Currently for this army I have a Rino, Devastator squad, Drop pod, Ironclad Dreadnaught, and Predator tank to finish.
On another note....
I have finally found a list I like for the Eldar. I have made the commitment to have them painted up as Biel-Tan. It may-be my fascination with the colour green :). And you heard it right. I had them painted for me, to give me something to work with, it was too daunting for me to start working on them. The friend that painted it for me did a wonderful job! Thank you!
Now I have an Eldar army for gothic, Epic, and 40K :)

Another year gone by...
Lots have changed since I last wrote....
1st. I have put my chaos warriors on hold for the time being, i have everything I want for them.
2nd. I am trying to do some finishing touches on my Wood elves, a few more models to paint.
3rd. My elder army is having a bit of an identity crisis. I haven't got the right balance in the army list. But none the less painting for them goes slow.
I hope to put some work in one of these three focuses. On a happier note, I have a fully painted elder army for epic armegeddon! Pictures coming for those soon. Almost done the elder fleet associated to them (battle fleet gothic). I would like to finish my epic armegeddon space marine force, however.
Anyways I am rambling...till next time

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)
