Warmachine/Hordes: Trying to have a fresh perspective.

I should start this off by saying I made and attempt to play Warmachine on several occasions using he MkI rules and it never really worked for me. There are several things in that system that made me really dislike playing. When Privateer Press released the second version known as mark two or MKII, I took a quick look at the rules and realized many of the things that I disliked about MKI where still there in MKII.

Addiction...it's not just for drugs!!

So, I guess I should start this by saying two things. First off I have no prior training about any type of substance addiction and any comments made are my own opinion and not trained or scientific in nature. Second, I am not trying to trivialize any struggle that anyone may be going through as I understand that dependencies can be very difficult to deal with. On with the post.

Howling Banshee Exarch...WIP 3

Well I managed to to squeeze some painting time in between tending to my wife who is recovering from recent surgery. There may not seem like much change as I only refined a few things that were done and added some smaller details to see how they would look with the completed color.

Howling Banshee Exarch...WIP 2


Well I am plugging along with this one. Not quite the pace I would like, but I am steadily getting work done. I am working with a new style where I emphasize shadows and highlights to give a bit more contrast than I have in the past. So far I have been happy with the results although they still look a bit rough in places. I am having to be extra careful with my blending because it can be really distracting if some of it is not clean.

Howling Banshee Exarch...WIP 1

 Well I am starting to break out of my funk and started to actually work on a mini. Since I am not currently working on any particular army for any particular game I just grabbed a model from one of my armies and started painting. This model may never see the table but I like it none the less.
