Cool as soon as I know about work I'll book a ticket.

Still trying to bribe, blackmail and bully my way into getting the weekend off work but just checking if there are still any spaces left for this?

Finally got around to trying to work out Nicodem.

I'm going to try and share what I learn along the way

Gaining Grounds 2016 will be adhered to (with some jiggery pokery for proxies etc)

FIXED FACTION or DUAL MASTER (choose one master, announce before each game which faction he’s being played as)

50SS

5 games

Rough time schedule

10:30 till 17:30 day one

11:00 till 16:30 day two (I envision an earlier finish than this however)

 

Is this still the basic what and when? 

Can I be "that guy" and ask if the results from this are being sent off for the rankings?

Cool, I'll give the locals another nudge see if I can drag anyone else along.

I'll be there!

Do we know how many players there are for this roughly?

Carrying on my spirit write ups I've done a quick Gaki "thing".

enjoy and please let me know what tricks I've missed.

A quick aside to a blog post I've done about painting I will get some more pictures up on here soon

Kicked of the new years painting queue

First up was the time lord. I have to say I really struggled with this model and I'm not sure why despite how cool the model is nothing really jumped out at me with it.

Next up I did my shikome. Really enjoyed these tried to paint a lot cleaner and clearer than I usually do

And lastly Datsue Ba. Tried to use a lot of different styles with her the OSL looks a bit better in the picture than it actually is as I was a bit clumsy with it but learned a lot from the process so should be able to do better next time

Ticket purchased!

That's great never tried them with other masters.

Cheers.

The same as a few others it seems I've started running Kirai lately, I decided to do a few blog posts on her spirits as a way to help me learn what they do.

The first one on seishin is up here

I run her is ressers quite a bit, she has no real combo with Kirai except for looking cool but Kirai is also where I like to run her. 

I tend to send her off on her own leaving the kirai bubble to do what it does.

One of the aura upgrades are never a bad call with her unnerving if you want her to hold a position or the other one if you want her to go hunting.

I tend to think of her as a giant gaki and just send he off up the table.

Finally remembered to buy my ticket!

I'm interested count me in.

The brown is fur like fauns, think of them like the meth addicted spawn of Mr Tumnus.  

Its been slow on the hobby front lately, only thing I've managed is this trio of tots.

I like the idea of story events but I think the showdown series works well as they are.

Maybe a story threaded between the different showdowns to tie them together without making it the main draw? (no suggestion on how that would work)

Should be able to make this.

Another merc to join the Ressers.

I've added a camera to Hans for three reasons. One if Molly is a reporter she  needs a photographer. Two "smile you son of a..." Action says photographer to me. And three it was fun.

Cheers.

Yeah strats in the rules pack schemes at registration.

Painting up my first (and last?) Gremlin. Mr Burt Jebsen. 

Great little model with loads of character, I tried to make him quite bright and bold. Once again I'm attempting NMM still not there but getting closer.

Anyone coming along to rebels & rioters on Saturday. If you have a 3x3 mat you could bring along it would make set up that bit easier.

Noticed I've been a bit behind in my painting lately and also in updated this with what I've done.

First there are three Gaki to get thrown about by Molly and Kirai. Really like the sculpts but not looking forward to fitting them into my case.

And a slightly out of focus picture of Mr Graves as a break from the undead horde.
