Well, I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year. This update has come later than I had hoped. Working Christmas and New Year Weekends and turning a year older seems to settle in some melancholia. Wow, did I just use a $20 dollar word like melancholia in the proper context?
I am a member of the 40 Radio Freebootas. It is a paid forum that is a great group of guys that are very supportive and encouraging. They are also a very talented group of guys that enjoy the hobby and playing Warhammer 40k for the fun of it. I can honestly say that 40k Radio helped re-kindle my interest in the hobby that is Warhammer 40k. The Freebootas are a great group of guys, and a girl here and there.
The 40k Radio podcast can be found on iTunes or here:
For the Christmas season the Freebootas can sign up for Deep Striking Santa. Where you are given the name of another participating Boota and they send them a gift. Well I finally got mine from my Deep Striking Santa. He assembled and painted to match my army a Finecast Ork Big Mek with a Kustom Force Field. I was speechless. Here are some pics:
Thank you Dark Angel 13!
My hobby time this week was re-directed to organizing and straightening the shelves in the Mancave. I set up 2 of the shelves as displays. So Joe and I could display figures, instead of keeping them packed away all the time. I installed some lights and built some neutral colored foam core display areas to keep the figures from falling through the wire shelves. Here are some pics.
Believe it or not, this is VERY organized. :)
Here is a close up of of the figures in the display.
I also used some craft foam and made some damaged vehicle templates to use for games. I will see about getting some pics of them later. So until next time, Keep it pointed straight up there!
