It's All About Confidence

Today I have been out collecting Eldar flowers.
'What the hell has this got to do with gaming?' I hear you ask well let me explain.

I'm going to combine the Eldar flowers with sugar, water and lemon juice and the natural yeasts in the air should with luck start fermentation. After about 3-7 days it should be ready to be bottled.

Yes I know but keep reading

Another 8-10 days and I should have some Eldar Flower Champagne.

Still not with me?

Well in a couple of weeks we start a 40k campaign, two sides, the Imperial Guard v the Astartes, all narrative and rules by none other than Lordybloke.

A lot of battles are won with confidence and as I am the General for the Imperial Guard I thought it best to have Champagne ready to celebrate our victory with my Regimental Commanders.

Cheers !

Excellent read.

Starts with a new intake to the order and their problems and history, culminates in their first campaign.

Russ

Finally got around to painting my Russ.

I've had this Russ for many a year and never fully painted it (this is the 3rd scheme so far!). This is also the first time its ever had tracks on!

Quite simple to do to. Desert yellow spray, heavy wash of Devlan mud followed by gryphon sepia. Drybrush with an Iyanden darksun/ bleached bone mix and then line in some more Devlan mud where extra depth is needed.

I've gone for a bit of weathering but tried not to put too much on. I didn't want it to look like its totally fu......alling apart. Just about right I think, not that it stands up to extreme zoom but will look fine on the table!

Still needs some markings/numbers on it but I'm not entirely sure what I want to do with those so it can wait.

So that's the test piece done its time to gluing/painting the rest of the tanks and get the blade out!
