August update; Getting back into the swing of things.

   So far, I am happy with my progress. By no means am I anywhere near where I should be. Yet the fact that I am actually doing something is a very big step in the right direction.

   I feel I am about 2-3 sessions to having these 4 initial figures completed. I have missed a couple spots, and I need to touch up a couple things, but I'm almost done with the figures. I'm planning on holding off on the bases until they are all done.

   I do have a couple problems I need to fix though. As you can see in the pictures, I have 2 broken models. One should be simple and straightforward with fixing the axe. The other, not so much. I love how dynamic the new models are, but they have so many fragile points to them! He broke at the toes. The toes that were holding him up! I'm going to have to be very careful with him when I fix him.

  Well, here's to hoping my next post sees these four models finished and the next 5 started! It sure feels great to be doing something again!

For the Month of August, I pledge....

For the month of August, I pldege to at least paint, and finish, my Fyreslayer Warcry force.

I only have 9 models to paint for this force and i don't see any real reason why i shouldn't be able to finish this pledge.

As you can see, i've already got a good head start on nearly half of the models. Starting usually isn't my issue.... it's finishing.

But, the models are primed. My area is clean. i have a head start. And I have nothing better to do!

I shall post updates as i go along! I am shooting for at least weekly, if not more.

I hope I can show you some finished models soon!!!!!

Just do something already!

Tomorrow is the last day of the month. I've pretty much wasted all my time in regards to hobby related work. I need to get out of the dumps and at least do what I can to enjoy my hobby. To do as much as I'm able without actually gaming. To that end, I want to set myself some simple goals, in no particular order;

-Finish my Fyreslayers for Warcry. I've started them. They look good. I need to finish them.

-Paint a Blood Bowl team. I say it's my favorite GW game, I need a team to prove it!

-25 point Crusade force for 9th edition. If I actually paint some Primarus marines for the new world of 40k, i can justify getting more!!!

-500 point force of Horus Heresy. Just get something done!!! 

I don't think it's too much to ask myself to actually commit and follow through on these simple tasks. I'm always making one excuse or another, and I need to stop doing that. Yes, I am more writing this all for myself. I know no one reads any of this, there's nothing to really read!!! I can't even keep myself posting on this stupid blog!

I know I create my own excuses as to not continuing. Not finishing. I'm tired of it. I keep seeing all of the cool new things coming out and it kills me that I don't really get to participate in any of it anymore. I won't have any free time to go and do the things for a very long time. I don't have anyone that I can really discuss the things I enjoy anymore. I'm already really fucking miserable, I might as well be doing something I used to enjoy. I know it's still a part of me, and I hope I can still enjoy it, because I still want to be a part of it!
