Someone has a case of the Mondays

Ugh.  I hate being at work today.  Im really grumpy.



That being said, ive got lots of stuff to share this morning, so hang in with me!

First up, im going to enter several entries into Pendraken's yearly 10mm competition.  Still looking for those perfect pictures for these, but here is what Im going to run with:

Commander in Chief


Next up, a T34/85 (notice #21 for my Gamecock buddies!)



Finally, one little base of some Native Americans.

I also finished up 'Lucky Something o rather' from Dreadball.  The camera picked up every single little paint stroke and blemish, but in person, this one really turned out great.

We got some snow this weekend
and as a result, my wife and I watched the entire first season of Homeland in less than 48 hours :)  Its a really good show if you havent seen it yet.  Id say 9 out of 10 Raptor's Claws!  Great story, great cliffhangers, and lots of bewbs - not quite enough action for me to give it 10 out of 10!  Ive had a man crush on Damien Lewis ever since Band Of Brothers, and he does not disappoint!

and, a picture of my wife during the season finale!
Ok, so I guess its not all bad - after all, another day above ground is a good day right?!?  Hang in there - Monday will be done before you know it!

Dreadball Team Complete

Phoenix Syndicate Firestorm!

These are the first figures in a long time that I have been disappointed with, both from a sculpt perspective, but also my paint job.  The sculpts are boring (well, the strikers are pretty good actually, but the other two?  Bah), and they werent really all that fun to paint.

My paint job was kinda crappy.  I tried to create fire going up the entire left side of each figure, but instead, I got a blobby mess of yellow, orange, and red.  On a good note, I think the red armor itself turned out pretty good!

Guards




Strikers

Jacks

Next up are a bunch of 10mm figures Im working on for the yearly Pendraken competition here.  Go enter!
