Hello, and welcome to the blog! This is going to hold all my hobby progress and maybe some stories of gaming, too. But first we’ll do this little introductory post.
I’m new to wargaming. Actually, that’s really why I’m starting this blog. I’ve bought a bunch of stuff, built a little of it, and painted almost nothing. Despite this, I keep wanting to buy more! So I thought the best thing to do would be to somehow hold myself accountable for my hobby progress. That’s what this blog is all about, being honest about the progress I make. Hopefully that will push me to actually finish all this stuff before buying more. We’ll see.
The first project on the workbench is The Osiris Project: building and painting a Combat Patrol force of Necrons by the end of June. A couple of friends and I have been trying to get into 40k over the summer. I bought the Indomitus box when it came out, and I built and painted enough warriors to make a Kill Team, but now I’d like to finish the models in the box to play full 40k. I’m pretty close. I’ve only got one more sprue of warriors/scarabs to build, then it’s on to priming and painting.
I’m not sure how I want to paint them, though. I think I’ll take a day or two to paint some test models and see what I like. I don’t want to get too bogged down by that, though. I know I can waste the rest of the month worrying about getting the right color scheme. Just gotta make a decision and keep the forward movement.
So that’s the plan. I’ll check back in later when I’ve made some progress. Until next time, game on!
