This Happened

So while we were gaming it up to max potential during reading week this happened, and I at least didn't even notice. Just a quick post because I personally think it's amaze-balls extreme and would buy one at a seconds notice if $170 was something I had lying around.

I am literally blown away by that model. Warmachine doesn't have a single jack that even gets to ride the same schoolbus as that guy. Straight up. He doesn't even ride the bus, his mom drives him in every day. Seriously. Amazing.

Another Dakkajet?

I wanted to share something I created in true Ork fashion. To go along with my scratch built Stompa, I now posses a bespoke Dakkajet. 

Its construction is fairly simple. The wings and tail are both cut out of hardboard, the body is various tube things glued together and the canopy is thin clear plastic that I cut and bent into place. 

The turbo-prop is made out of Lego. I glued two giant burst cannons from the Riptide Battlesuit to the wings to represent the 3 Twin-Linked Super-Shootas the Dakkajet has. Looking at it now I think I need to do something about the space between the body and canopy. 

For comparisons sake, here's my other Dakkajet. I tried to give the original more of an A-10 look; I mounted rear engines high and added some munitions to the wings. My new one is a clear throwback to the Ju-87 G; it has the under-wing cannons, razorback canopy, single engine, and the Balkenkreuz on the tail (just in case you didn't get it).

Finally, I started building a huge building for 40k, You can see a teeny-weenie guardsmen for comparison.

Did someone say escalation?

Now is when we find out who remembered the escalation league deadline for reading week. 600 pts ready to play. Ante up bitches.

Finished Scouts

Juts a Quick post to let everyone know that I finished painting those scouts. Gaze upon their badassitude and weep.

A Recent Report on Fantasy Battles

The chaos moon Morrslieb's orbit took it directly in front of Mannslieb, casting a great green shadow-ring upon the old world. Creatures of myth began to stir from ancient slumber. Just outside the small Bretonnian town of Ermahgerdsdon, low from the mysterious tangle of Athel Loren could be heard a voice, "ah fuck it, ill just add a dragon to my 2400 list."

And thus began this 3000 warhammer battle. I, Wooster Shooster, took an illegal list, by simply tacking a dragon special character of 595 points onto my 2400 Wood elf list. My opponents (who should feel free to add a less biased commentary here) shared the 3000 between skaven and dark elves.
