About Me

31 and married with three kids. Add in a healthy dose of A.D.D and it's surprising when I do manage to finish anything. After moving away from friends and family trying to find ways to keep the gaming addictions going from 400 miles away.

Emperor's Champion W.I.P.

So I dragged out my paints and grabbed a few models that were almost completed last night and sat down to actually finish a model or two to a better than three color spray paint finish.

Last up was the emperors champion that needed a few highlights, a touch up here or there and a wash to bring everything back down. Everything went well(as i hope can be seen in my crappy pictures later on) so this morning i brought everything back out* and went downstairs to get my flock and sealer to finish him up.

This happened in the three minutes I was in the basement.

Doesn't look like the face of evil does it? She grabbed one of my tank brushes, opened up my maroon squeeze bottle, squeezed some onto the palette, wetted the brush, thinned the paint, and proceeded to "painted your guy dad".

This is part of the reason I can't get anything finished. I can't leave a model out to finish gluing later, or take my time painting. Everything has to be taken out and put back away immediately.

  1. First of all, get some shelving up, and put projects to work on waaay out of the way of little people. Mine are all in a secured closet, although Kaeden is getting wise on how the round doornadles work now, so I'll ave to get some of those cover thingies that you have to squeeze before turning.

    Second, let them know they are 'daddies toys' and are not to be messed with! Also, maybe work on them when the little ones are out playing, or are in bed :)

  3. yeah, working on shelving this weekend after fixing the truck and whatnot.

    I'll have two whole weeks of being able to paint and leave crap laying around the house wherever I feel like when they all truck up to chicago on monday. Gonna put up some pictures and a WIP post either tonight or tommorrow as well.
