Kickstarters that look good

Today, I thought I would point out some kickstarters I have seen that I would love to get into.
First up is Mutant chronicles warzone resurrection. I am mainly interested in this one because  I really like the   Brotherhood models. I am also a little interested in the Bauhaus models as well. Not even really worried about the rules I just like the models.

Next is the empire of the dead requim one. This one I admit I just like the premise of the game. Not sure on the models, it's kind of love hate with many of them.

Finaly, is the one I am most excited about Thon.  Not only do I love the models but I love the idea of the game. Love me robots.

Anyway hope this points out some games you might consider. If anyone knows any others let me know. Now I need to do more work on the painting challenge so I can actually buy some of these.


Until then,

Wahoo progress

Below is the next unit of 20 romans that I have now completed, still need to figure out how I want to base all these guys though.

Next up I have the two rhinos/razorbacks I am currently working on.

So this brings my painting total up some more.
March: 20 points
YTD total: 96 points

Now I just need to figure out what to paint after the rhinos/razorbacks.

till then,

Some blogs I love

This post is as the tittle says. There are 3 particular blogs that I often frequent.

First, which is one I look at many times each day is Tabletop fix. I love this blog because it is always introducing new models and games to me but doing it in a way where I don't feel like they are trying to sell them to me. So check it out.

Next would be Tale of painters. This site I enjoy digging through for their tutorials and reviews. Never mind  the nicely painted models.

The story for Pirate viking painting is the same as the last one. Love the tutorials and the nicely painted models.

Finaly, is my most reason find by the chance of actually looking to see what some of my followers do or follow. Coloured Dust, here is once again a tutorial section I like that is well organized and lots of nice models to look at. I plan on trying some of the basing ideas from this website.
http://www.coloureddust.com.pl/

So check these blogs out, also drop me a line if you know any other good blogs. I am trying hard to find some good 6mm, 10mm and tutorial blogs.

Later today, my time, I will post a painting update.
Until then,

February spending YTD and Painting challenge YTD

Honestly, I am a little disappointed in my painting results but couldn't avoid a lot of the things that caused me not to finish my 20 man roman unit I have been working on. However, all in all it was still a good month.


On the YTD spending I spent nothing in february but also sold nothing. This I plan on changing this month. Probably by feebay. So the grand total for spending is as follows:

Jan: -$119.53
Feb: $0.00
YTD total: -$119.53

As for the paining challenge I did well but not as good as I would have liked. This was mainly due to the many holidays in the past month and people getting sick (me included). It was however, better than last month. This month did see the completion of the first two 20 man units of Romans  the completion of 6 plasma cannon marines, 5 assault marines and 1 razorback/predator type tank (to be determined when I order the bits). So the YTD painting challenge is:

Jan: 20 points
Feb: 76 points
YTD total: 96 points
Left until goal: 204

On the table at the moment is the 20 man unit I have been working on and 2 rhino/razorback tanks. I will post later this week when I make a bit more progress on them.

Until then,
aruki

ps. I am still looking for some good 10mm blogs especially ancients/Napoleonic themed.
