WarGames Con Countdown...

...will I make it or no?




I think so.  I'm down to the final squad, the Brotherhood Guard, and being mostly Terminators they ought to sing through.  Honestly, the hardest models to paint are basic Space Marines with Bolter/Bolt Pistol and Close Combat Weapon.  I think the weapons are bitch, personally; not only do they block the model but the days of painting them silver and letting it go are long gone!

Though I did that with the Fangs.  I'll go back later and add color to the Missile Launchers, but right now finishing is the goal.

The two Rhinos will take no time.

I'm down to tomorrow afternoon.  A few notes:

To Evil Homer:  My long-suffering wife said you tried to chat with her; try though I might, she insists on communicating with me through Google, which tends to make folks think I'm present!  Anyway, I'll get in late on Thursday but I'll be coming by Doubletree early Friday to chat and/or eat prior to the Team Tournament.

To BBF / Steve:  I'm sorry I haven't communicated as much as I need to with you - I'm grinding man!  We'll have a blast at the team event, I'm sure.

To Everyone Else:  Say 'Hi' - God's own truth, I enjoy meeting Bloggers more than anything.

And lastly, an FWI:  It seems the FLGS's newest mainstay, the Card Pimp in Question, will be joining me for the event.  If any of you fine folks meet him...

...please refer to him as the Card Pimp, no matter what he says his name is!  He doesn't read this blog, so it should make for a good time...  Anyway, it ought to be fun; he's a good dude and I'm looking forward to the opportunity to get to know him better.

Don't read in to that, anyone.

So... I'll do my best to bring you pictures from the tournament, but without my Indentured Servant this year - and where the hell is he? - I'll have to see what I can accomplish!

I'm out - back to the grind, then bed.
