Lack of blogs..
August 29th, 2008 by Missy
Meh, I seem to have gotten out of the habit of blogging every day while we lacked internet. It used to be that I’d have to stop myself from blogging too often and clogging up my pages, but now I’m having to force myself to sit down and write something. Hopefully in a few days (or weeks, who knows) I will be back in the swing of things.
Anyways — I haven’t really done any painting since I finished up the wolves. I’ve greenstuffed all of the ghouls up and primed them, but I haven’t started painting (although I have been dreaming of paint schemes). I spent some time yesterday magnetizing my dire wolves (although I made Dan cut the steel sheets for me) and am quite pleased with them. They’re strong enough that I can flip them upside down and give them a shake without dislodging them, but I can still easily remove them from the movement tray. I also put magnets onto the bases for the ghouls that I am painting up, although I obviously haven’t made a movement tray for them yet. Honestly I’m feeling a bit meh about it since I’m not sure how big to make it.
I usually start my ghoul units somewhere between 15-20 models, but I often end up with much more than that since my Lord takes “Summon Ghouls” as a power and I do so love to pump out ghouls like crazy. I don’t really want to make a movement tray for like 30 models, though, because it’ll look retarded sitting on my display shelf with all of that empty space going on. I don’t currently own enough ghouls to fill in for all of the ones that I raise (go go empty bases ftw), so it’s not even like it can sit on the display shelf full and move around the board not full. Perhaps I should make a movement tray for 20 to keep on the shelf and a spare movement tray for games? I suppose I have plenty of steel for it..
