Pinning Project
Nooooooooooooo!
Got a case for my Storm Wolves, and had some extra room for my War Clowns. When I unpacked my bucket o' clowns I saw some pinning was in order.luckily last week Jman stopped by for a quick rumble and we discussed pinning. I had not done it before but it could not be easier.
First you drill a hole into each of the pieces you are trying to attach.
Then you superglue a paperclip into one side.
Okay, now you just cut the paperclip to a size that will fit into the hole you drilled on the other half. simple as pie. I super glued this arm back into the body. You can also go with gluing just one side so that you may remove it for packing.
Ahhhhh, my Necron Destroyer Lord with his Scarab Swarm Cape. Almost ready to get back in the action
Anybody else looking forward to the Necron release? I can't wait! I definitely got some repainting to do, or at least fix those details are not yet happy with (read as lightning). But as long as there is no new Codex I think my Necron's are gonna stay as my Holla army. you know the one I only play with when I'm drunk, my Storm Wolves are scorning me.
"Yes destroyer Lord, I will follow you to the new Codex!"

Went to paint, and a game broke out
Hello readers,
I went over to Games Workshop today put some colors onto those blood claws. I didn't get far though. The next guy to walk into the store was down for a 1000 point game. He was playing the mellow Marines. I brought my Storm Wolves.
The space Marines were set up as 2 tactical squads both with rhinos, a cog boy, 3 attack bikes in a single squad, and the whirlwind that always missed.
I almost had him tabled in three, and at the end of seven I own both objectives. He had three members of a tactical squad left, and I had all of my units still. He was diced pretty hard, but only on the offense. It was ugly, and I felt bad for him.
This little thousand pointer has a 3-1 record. It's very forgiving, and the predator takes such a large proportion of the fire. I I wish I could afford the points in the 2500 point Army to take a predator. I know it only draws fire for the first round or two, but that can be a lot of heavy weapons fire.

Pistols Arrived!!
My space Wolf Army, The Storm Wolves, have yet to have their blood claw pack completed. The reason? Perhaps a little bit of planned procrastination. You see I've decided to run this blood claw pack with the wolf priest named The Gunslinger. This wolf priest is a two-fisted shooter, so I decided to make all the blood claws two-fisted shooters as well. Of course I needed to order some more bolt pistols to make this work. In eight short days I go in for wrist surgery on my right hand, and as long as I goes well I have surgery on my left wrist in about four months. I'm hoping to finish these blood claws before next Thursday. I will try to continue with content, but we'll see how I do. I can always enslave my children and wife and make them do my painting for me. Mwa ha ha ha ha!
I do all my blogging with Dragon software. It works well, although it is not as fast as typing. In addition you can be a real pain in the butt in certain situations.(I dictated "it" can be a pain, but true to form the program turned it around on me) either way I will keep these sweet pics coming, I'm excited to see how all my gunslingers will look when finished.
Off To The Paint Cave!
