Scrum Painting Challenge Week 3

The submissions this week are truly amazing folks, take a gander at what everyone has brought to the table!  Keep them coming slowly people start to drop out though.  I will have a complete list of people still in the running for the raffle later in the week.

Trollblood Colossal

Well Warmachine is getting their goodies but we are getting ours too. High res picture from youtube guys here it is!  Brand spanking new from PP here is their video  HERE.  And of coarse this is a copy written work of Privateer Press and not out own work.

Round Six of the New Church League

With EvilFuzzyDoom

These posts document the NEW CHURCH LEAGUE (named after our regular gaming venue, affectionately nicknamed "the Church"). The NCL has ten participants, and will take place over nine two-week, Round Robin rounds with elimination finals for the top four players. Each player picks two casters for the duration of the League. The match-ups, scenarios and any special rules are posted at the outset. Scenarios are from the PP Official Steamroller 2011 Rules. We should be wrapping by about mid-march.

My Warlocks for the League are pMadrak & pGrissel.

This Round, I played against Cygnar!

Painting Tips For The Average Painter

As evidenced from the photos, some of you are downright fantastic painters.  There are others however, that are more like myself when it comes to painting our models.  My paint jobs aren't terrible so long as you are looking at them from 3feet away.  Upon closer inspection you will often see buckles that aren't quite painted, or small smudges where one items color fades into the next.  This hobby is a fantastic hobby that provides me with a social outlet, creative process, and relaxion.  The problem is with limited time I often find myself having to choose between painting, modeling or playing.  Since playing the game for me is the most enjoyable part of the hobby, next to assembling and modding peices painting often gets left by the wayside.

Enter Goris' Scrum painting challenge.

His challenge has ingnited my competitive nature, my paint jobs won't be the best of the bunch, but I will win by completing a model each week if it kills me.  As the first two weeks have gone by and I begin work on my thrid and fourth Scattergunners I found a few things that are helping me plow through a unit.  Solos and Warbeasts take longer individually to paint because I try harder on them.  For the average unit Grunt though, it just isnt worth the effort.  So before I bore you all to death, here are a few tips and ticks that I use to get me through painting a unit of models that are all nearly identical.

The Scrum Painting Challenge Week 2

Well folks more photos coming in and we look like we are on pace to get everyone in on the raffle for a free BATTLE ENGINE!  This week I have figured out that technology thing and put in a neat slide show for you folks so it's much cleaner and easier to view.  Go me!  Keep those models coming guys!

Sid's Shenanigans! - 01/23/2012

I know this is late, but I wanted to make a quick post for the week, as I begin to finish up the last of the MHSF. Here are some pics of a few models left to paint:

I also want to announce for this week's challenge, I am going to paint a model that I should have painted a long time ago. I have been pestered and harassed to paint it, and I finally have begun to do so. I will be painting the Extreme sculpt of a Khador Destroyer! Yeah! I am so excited, and he is going to be so awesome. Not only that I am going to put him up for auction as soon as he is finished, so if you want to get you hands on him, keep your eye on Ebay for him. He could be yours in the near future!
For now, See Ya!

Trollblood Theme Forces - Alpha guide and "To Buy" shopping lists

by PG_joedj 


Currently there are 12 Trollblood Theme Forces
If you are considering purchasing Trollbloods, Theme forces may be a fun (and financial) consideration!

Notes:
Exact Tier requirements and benefits are not listed (protect the IP). Individual strategy guides when written (by our community) will be linked to the Theme title.
"Recommended buys" are IMHO only. As a PP and Trollblood fan, I expect Trollblood players to have every model!
