...aaaaand we're back!

Once again this blog has been quiet for a while and to my multitudinous - well, four - followers who no doubt have been wondering what had happened to my already irregular posts, I apologize. Things have been busy. Life (defined as a series of distractions and interruptions to your hobby) got in the way. Since the last post I finished my final year exams, went scuba diving, finished college, got an internship with a research group, finished college, did some commission work and did I mention I finished college? I don't know if you can tell but I'm pretty excited about having finished my degree. Well, excited's not the word. Terrified would be closer. I'm now doing my best to get back into college for some postgrad stuff and avoid actually working which is really tiresome. But in the meantime there are updates to be had and to show my commitment to my goals for this blog I'm going to share some that will be completed in the near future:

1. Vampire Counts - this army is still very much an active project for me and has come along a little since the spirit hosts were completed, and with the release of the undead legions army (yes I got Nagash, of course I got Nagash have you freaking seen him?!) I'm really eager to get these models painted. Expect to see grave guard, more skeletons, and zombies soon!

2. Dwarfs - no this army hasn't been forgotten. Actually I have more dwarfs painted than undead right now they're just not based. That will change soon as I'm going to enlist some help to do the boring bit of base coating the bases, and we'll finally discover what those mysterious models beside the thunderers were...

3. Eldar - my brother bought the new rule book and sucked me back into 40k, so I'm also working on my eldar army. To be honest I'll be pretty happy just to get the models fully assembled (the last few games have been played with a pair of legs to represent my wraithknight), but since a lot of models need to be painted in parts before assembly (tanks, the wraithknight, wraithguard with weapons over their chests) I'm not sure how that's going to be accomplished while working on the models above.

4. TT+1 pieces - it's been a while since I've painted anything to the best of my ability and I'm feeling a bit rusty. But I've got a ticket to Golden Demon and started working on an entry, so there'll be at least one of my better models on this blog in the next month!

I guess that's all for now. Next up will be some photos, so keep an eye out!

Happy painting!
