Points updated! Long time since I've said that.

Not criticizing anyone mind as I have yet to put up anything this year. However! I vow to have two points by the end of the week! I've finally put down the drug called Skyrim and started doing a VERY small amount of painting. Not even from my resolution lists. Though I'll hopefully be getting a little bit more done a little more regularly. I have to at least beat my score from last year.

2+2=5 for sufficiently large values of 2.

If you don't have your Location listed in your User Control Panel, why not take a second and update it? It will let your trading partners know where you are from the beginning.

I use the Unofficial Porkuslime Trading Guidelines - if you have way less refs.. you ship first.

Folks I am awaiting a ref from.. Zack

And my first two points of the year squeaking in just before the end of MARCH. This is embarrassing. :oops:

Here are two DE Wyches I've had sitting assembled on my desk since the army launch in November 2010?? I decided they needed to get painted even though it's unlikely they'll be having any friends anytime soon.

Next up SHOULD be 6 Empire Halberdiers. I've been working on them the past week and they're about 40~50% done.

Oh, and I took this picture with my *iPhone* today. I was shocked how well it turned out since I just took the picture and didn't use any sort of lighting tricks and there are no photoshop level or contrast adjustments to the raw photo.

Thanks!! GW Enchanted Blue is a wonderful color. The shading is Exile Blue, then deepest bits are Exile with a bit of Umbral Umber. Highlights were Enchanted Blue with white mixed in.

I cover nearly all the recipes on my Painting Class article series: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3.

Yay, 2 points!

Sorry I've been gone so long folks. Been having trouble on the home front. Hopefully I'll be getting stuff updated more regularly. We'll see.

So the points were updated. Thankfully not a whole lot. And I'm adding in 6 points for myself.

And I've finished one of my resolutions! Half of the year is over, but oh well.

I love these models, but the female spear wielder does have a mongoloid forehead. I don't know why, but I think that should have been caught by the sculptor.

Points also updated!
