[ame] [/ame] I loathe this song.... I want to rip my eyes out when I hear it. BUT DAMNIT I ALWAYS END UP SINGING ALONG WITH IT! *grumbleover*

Hey now iffin y'all didn't draw yer warter from our bayou none of our kins would end up in yer gosh dern system!

I've painted this model a few times and I just love it's Tzeentchian aesthetics. http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m2070095_99060201224_TzeentchChampionBook_445x319.jpg Just picked up this model from Studio McVey, gunna use it for my Arcanist Gunsmith whenever I get around to running that faction for Malifaux. Link fail. It's the Isabella miniature. It oozes style. It would be perfect with a Reese's Monkey and not the chim-chim thing that's on her shoulder. And the warm, wet, squelching of this mini makes me proud to have the mark of Nurgle: http://www.coolminiornot.com/204766

Boba Fett lipping off to Darth Vader Episode V: "He's no good to me dead." WHAT?! Did that dude just lip off to the Dark Master??? Wow. Butch.

Yeah... details. Still getting caught up on the learning curve. No sweat. With Sybelle within a foot and a couple of Belles I should've moved them closer to the objective. No worries. Still a fun game.

Yeah I left out the WP duels after turn 3 or so. They happened but more often than not she slid around until she failed like 6 in a row vs. Seamus and one of my Belles. Yeah I know should have used a slingshot on a Belle via Sybelle up to the marker and destroyed it. But we were just playing a casual game and he's fairly new to the system so we took it easy and had a good laugh.

Yeah I grew up in Longview, WA and I spent a lot of time going down to PDX to visit family. I know the general area it's in. Thanks!

Sad that there's such a vibrant scene and it's two hours away. Eugene's Malifoolery is growing but not near your guys' level of play. Yet to run a tournament. No henchman in the area. We've only been playing for a little over a month. Which store do you guys play at? Evolution Gaming is where most of us go to play, here in Eugene.

My Crew: Seamus Copy Cat Killer Sybelle Convict Gunslinger 2 x Rotten Belles His Crew: Pandora Candy Kade 3 x Sorrows. This scrap took place Saturday (29.04.11). We had a shared objective Destroy the Evidence. We both forgot to take schemes, but since this was his 3rd game ever, I think it was for the best. Neither of us benefited from extra SS from not taking schemes. Turn 1 - was a typical movement fest. He links a sorrow to Pandora and that was about it. Turn 2 - Kept chippin away at me by forcing me to take WP duels. One word for that: annoying. Fighting her is definitely "death by a thousand papercuts." Convict gunslinger couldnt get LOS. Seamus got his fear bubble up and running. Turn 3 - Kept targetting Pandora and she kept sliding into my backfield... again with the annoying. Finally kill a sorrow, Seamus "Arise my Sweets" the corpse of the sorrow. Turn 4 - My CCK is trying his little tail to get into his deployment zone but the conclusion is he probably wont make it. Kill another sorrow. Realize Kade is sneaking around into my backfield from the other flank... grrr. Turn 5 - Lower Pandora's WP to a manageable 5 with Seamus. Hit her with Undress and Lure. The next Belle that's not in the CC, does the same so she's really low Df and right where I want here. Near 3 Belles and Sybelle. Her slide sneaks her out of combat but WAIT! the Convict Gunslinger has LOS and hasn't gone yet! Rapid Fire! 12! 13! 11! plus 3 cards that were less than those. And he's out of SS and has one Fate Card left..... muahahahahahaha. That's one dead Pandora. Turn 6 - he destroys the evidence with Kade. I can get to the evidence with CCK but I don't have enough actions to destroy it. So... I exact revenge on Kade. My belle undresses then lures Kade over to her and she wounds him but doesn't kill him. OMG we both laughed so hard at the image of an undead hooker trying to be seductive to a baby... worth the price of admission into this game. End of the game : He won 2-0 but I would've taken Assassin announced at the very least and it would have been a wash. I just forgot to do schemes. And the image of Kade getting Lured is priceless.

Ok. I lol'd. That's some funny stuff right there.

True Story: Years ago when I worked for GW, I was assembling miniatures for a store project. I tiny tiny bead of super glue got onto my pinky finger and I didn't realize it. Knowing that I had been working with super glue, when my ear itched from deep inside, I stratched it with the smallest appendage I could, the same pinky finger. when I tried to pull it out luckily all that tore out was some ear hair but man my boss was flabbergasted at how he was to explain to his boss what happened to Mo the Redshirt whilst he was putting minis together on company time. 7 stitches scar from my thumb fighting a Xacto blade, it obviously lost. You own a pair of jeans that are more paint than denim.

I do dirty blonde with GW colors in mind but any equivilent Vallejo or P3 color would do. Basecoat - Snakebite Leather Midcolor - Bubonic Brown Highlight - One part Bubonic Brown; one part Bleached Bone the tint of brown really makes it look like a poor hydrogen peroxide job done by a meth-monkey hair stylist. As for the rich red: Basecoat - Dark Flesh Wash - Flesh Wash Mid color -Vermin Brown Wash - Flesh Wash Highlight - One part Blood red; two parts Vermin Brown

Malifaux... duh. (kidding) Seriously though I had a fun game Somer + Ophelia + Gremlin crew vs Kirai yeah annoyed the heck out of my opponent with Skeeters casting "Pull My Finger" but for the most part got whomped. Still had fun though.

Welcome to the boards! This is a really good community of players. Make sure to post questions or concerns you have. People are great about getting back with positive responses.

Somer Teeth is 16 too so it's not like it's unprecedented. However unlike the Gremlins. c. Hoffman's mecha list is expensive (soulstonewise) so you only need one or two models to fill out the rest.

Welcome to the forums! Spent the night in Grand Island on my way out to and the trip back from my sister's wedding (in Chicago) last summer. I didn't get to see much of the state since it was dark most of the way through the state both times. *shrug* Most folk here are helpful. Don't get intimidated by painting or assembling or playing. It can seem overwhelming at first but like anything else, practice makes perfect. Keep at it, eventually you'll find what works for you, playwise or paintwise.

I sat at the feet of a Golden Daemon winner about 10 years ago. I took his advice and rolled with it and my painting has plateaued but I am happy with my results. Windsor and Newton brushes are expensive. but. If you take good care of the brushes, they will last a long, long time. There are acrylic paint cleaning solutions. get a bottle of that. Run your brush under lukewarm water. If the water is too hot it will make the wax (that holds the bristles together) melt, causing the bristles to fray. Dip the whole of the brush bristles in the cleaning solution then run thoroughly with the lukewarm water coming from the faucet. That said, the one brush or type of brush that I don't spend a lot of money on is dry brushes. They get thrashed anyway, just make sure they have a nice stiff bristle, like GW's. As for paints, I use Vallejo paints for everything but metallics. Vallejo paints are cheaper, just as good if not better than GW, and it comes in eyedropper bottles so getting exact ratios is much easier. GW's metallics still have the highest flake concentrations. For inks, I use either Vallejo or Windsor & Newton. Hope this helps.

the Cascade Mountains of the Pacific Northwest (in the USA) Oregon and Washington states specifically... got all you need mountains, lakes, snow... but you better get here quick (by early May). Newfies are wet mouth dogs so they drool. A lot. They are excellent swimmers and they have a very gentle personality. Hope this helps.

EDITTED FOR BREVITY - - - In miniature gaming, no I have yet to see a system that encourages co-op play. However, there's a couple of board games that have the co-op mechanic. Pandemic is the ultimate USSR game. The game plays you and you end up losing most of the time. Red November is the other game that is (mostly) co-op play.

He also has this fantastic (but expensive) model for an Arcanist Gunsmith Here: http://studiomcvey.highwire.com/product/smm08-isabella#image_default

I am a huge college football fan. While it may have its flaws (no playoff), it is some of the happiest memories of my life spent either at games or watching them on the TV. Go Ducks! I also spend a considerable amount of time snow skiing in the winter. Summer gets devoted to hiking and camping. I also have a girlfriend and we each have a dog so between all of us, I am surprised I ever find time to paint my minis.
