+1 Zombie painted. Pathetic really, I must focus on painting this army up to 2000pts then I can go back to the Imperial Guard who have been languishing in their boxes for a year.

Played another 1500pts game of VC vs Chaos last night. A ‘Capture’ scenario I found fairly easy to win. I definitely have a handle on pinning down Frenzied Knights and Warriors with raised Zombies. It basically keeps most of hardest units in Brent’s army out of the game. I anticipate seeing some normal (non-Frenzied) Chaos Warriors arriving on the scene soon.

VC Maxim: Always give the 3+ to hit banner to the Black Knights because their WS is no better than a normal human’s. This is a no-brainer really!

VC Maxim: Always support the Black Coach. I knew this of course, alas it charged in before the Black Knights could offer full support last night and paid the price.

 

Started working on Black Knights again. Assembled the next four horses, although they still need detailing. Will put Knight bodies together tonight.

Ordered two more sculpting tools from PitYak studios via his TradeMe auctions. That’s a dental ‘pick’ style tool and a sort of ‘cupped’ tool for burnishing, sculpting cloth folds, curves etc. That will probably do for now I think!

 

More progress on the 60 degree Fieldstone corner pieces for a triangular tower. Hopefully these masters will be robust enough to stand a couple of moldings and I must remember to use mold release.

60 degree Fieldstone

The more astute reader will notice these pieces are all the same. For stacking with my wall and tower sections I’ll have to use each second layer upside down. Alternately I may just create a set of three mirrored pieces because the more molds the quicker the casting!

 

Started work on those 60 degree custom Fieldstone corner blocks for a triangular Hirst Arts tower. Might try finishing them up tonight while my wife is out quilting. The triangular Fieldstone tower has been lurking in my mind since I built the Fieldstone fortress.

 

I’ve just disabled track-backs on this blog because of !#$%^ trackback spam appearing now I’ve locked down commenting. Lets see what the spammer tries next eh?

Also won a nifty sculpting tool on TradeMe recently. Apparently the gentleman responsible for PitYak Studios is importing them from some mysterious British source. I ended up paying only $6.50 for a double bladed steel sculpting tool so I’m not complaining. Hopefully he’ll auction more on TradeMe shortly!

 

Assembled the White Scout car while away over the long weekend. Also attached the wheels to the first of the 6pdr portees and built the gun carriage. Fancy doing a bit of modelling this evening actually. Got some walls to sand first though.
