I've never tried anything like this, but let's give it a shot! Count me in. Hope to paint a bunch of Skitarii this year.

This was probably not the best model to get back in the swing of things since I didn't paint last year. Way too many Gubbinz! Kaptain Badrukk.

Nice job!
On r/miniswap under the same name. Please be polite & answer PMs, even if all you tell me is "No thanks," or "I need more time." I expect lower rating to ship first, even if that's me, unless we work something out in advance.

Okay... taking the plunge this year.

For my first, did the conversion already but now he's painted:

Agreed. Badrukk is on a 40mm base and VERY detailed. I think 1 point is too little. Should be 2.

Lower rating? You ship first.

Give me a sense of humor Lord. Give me the grace to see a joke.
To get some humor out of life and pass it on to other folk.

I think what this situation needs is some imagination.

Want my help with a BTR or backout? All messages sent/posted should be in CHRONOLOGICAL order. Otherwise, I just won't read it.

Thanks, also, nice job on Badrukk, and I know your pain, on how fiddly irregular/cobbled together looks are to paint. Tried to get into orks like 3 times, but the variety + numbers did me in every time.

Sign me up for the challenge. Shooting for more than 80 points this year!
Per Diem, Per Noctem.

Unless we are doing a straight cash/money transaction I will cover the cost of what I ship to you, and therefore ask that you do the same.

I follow standard B-town operating rules, and will always respond to PM's even if it is just to say "No thanks."

A little low contrast on the metal, but otherwise really nice- about as clean as you can get while still being chaosy.
