Are my youtube videos being seen?


I'm wondering if my blog..readers? (cherp cherp cherp cherp) are seeing my you tube videos?

It is the other edge to my sword and I am hoping that it will gain interest and pull in people to the blog. Yes I know that mean I need more to read here, no I haven't forgotten.

Moving on. I am painting my land raiders now..2 of 3 the third one has no tracks..can't find them.. bad me.
But all is well I played a newer gamer last night and won in a way that should not have been possible.
I am not complaining I am glad I was clever enough to pull it off. He looked like he had some good moves ready for my wolves in the first two turns but I was able to wall him in and that was game.. we ended on turn 5. I hope he learned more about his army and too take risks as well.
He paints very well and is airbrushing his tanks they look very good.

I was reintroduced to mead this weekend love the stuff. more like a wine than any thing else. we got 3 different bottles the first called Viking blood..yum freshly squeezed viking!
I need to get back on the war path and wont be able to do to much till November. more on that after it is over. I am hoping to play at the 9/11 rtt 1500 points I'm excited
Paint it black Studio and I may film a battle report for out channels from our prospectives should be a cool battle report I don't know when we will be doing this but it should be a blast.

More soon.

Work!? or is it?

So I have a 24 hour shift to pull on Friday but all I have to do is sit their unless bad things happen. And it is ok for me to paint! so Friday will be a paint-o-thon! Wolves will be getting some "love"from the paint department. I have some grey hunters I have been excited to paint for a week or two and They will be first up for paint. I have yet to get a prototype? painted but maybe this Friday. So a pic' heavy day with luck. I know I keep promising pic's and I will deliver something this Friday.

A good day of gaming!

So the team tournament is over. yesterday was a lot more fun than I thought it would have been. I was thinking that I was going to just go through the motions like some kind of ghost or a robot (venture bros quote) But it was a good event and my partner and I did very well. I came on too strong in the first round and I wish I had not. I broke the will of one of the players on the other side...Sorry. It has been frustrating playing kids who don't really know how to play..or they kinda' know but it's the little things that make me crazy. We drew our first and second games and massacred in the third. I think things would have turned out a lot different all over if every player had known the correct format to build their armies. My partner and I discuses out options all through out the games and one player in round two, who would keep "calling" his partner aside to have their little what if's during the game. I don't think it changes too much in a game for either side to know what your thinking. once the minis have been moved it will be plain to see after all so ...
our third game let us come on very strong fighting a horde of IG and TAU. we preformed very well and had the big win we were wanting all day. we placed second!
This evening I will be filming and getting pics of my Space wolves all night. I want to post some pics and I feel like I owe a you tube post as well.
More very soon.

were changing gears again.

The daily money thing (army-work) has gotten silly again and I am having a lot less time for my projects and the blog. So I will still be doing what I can but unlike June I will be shooting for 4 posts per month. the exceptions being September-November in which I will be lucky to make any post at all. then we will cruse into the holidays and we will see what I can do from their. I need to be leaving very soon now I am late for a team tournament. Pic's today or to night if were lucky!

Work work work! ..war craft jokes..
I have assembled 30 shoota boyz! 6 or 10 more burna boyz and about as many lootaz!
My loot just got in to day! 3 killa kanz a dred and another box of lootaz! Oh and ZagStruck!
So things are coming together again for me. I have some terrain designs I have been playing with and I need to look at some shots from band of brothers to put it all together well.
I have 3 days off so I should get a lot of terrain started this weekend. My "necromunda" styled terrain and some euro village terrain will be my mane focus . Pic's of the orkz this weekend are planed but may not be painted yet. I am looking for airbrush primer ..primer I can air brush on my figs in side so I don't have to fight a loosing battle ..the humidity is killing me. My wolves are ruined. Until I get some way to save them.

Well all for now.

Another project done.

The warhound is done, well my part is done. I gave it over yesterday. I'm a bit upset? well not upset but not happy about my part in it. I took to long and felt a bit intimidated by it from time to time. I will easily build one now. The first new model will always take too long to build. I am glad I got to do this project. I think I need to work more on my time management and tackle the things that look the hardest first. In this instance the feet which were 30 some odd parts needed to be done first. The model is very top heavy but until the feet are all the way done you cant tell how much weight they will support.

I may get a pic' or two to stick up here.
I am still Space Wolves crazy. I am working on my blood claw bikers wolf guard and more options for my grey hunters. Project necrons is slowly moving and the stompa is getting almost no work done to it at this time.I will be trying to have them both done by the end of August.

No pic's today

Just a note Project Uberwolves (Space Wolves) has begun!
I am working out a test model right now. I like a dark look for the armour but I am not sold on blue or Shadow grey. I made a blu..darkblue wash to use. My models are based in P3 Iron Hull Grey I have a dark codex grey as well to use I might spray them a in the directly lighted spot for a layered highlight before washing them. I spent a few hours working on my wolf guard terminators last night I may need to magnetize options or get more models.. And blood claw bikers may soon be rolling in! we will see.

More soon ... and I still don't have an army list for the 17th of july rtt.
