So if you have been following me on instagram, you already know that I had some major accomplishments lately!
First, I crammed in a whole lot of painting to get this force of Iron Hands ready for a tournament:
I managed to win a few prizes! It was the end of our escalation league, so I pulled off the most points overall from the league. So I was awarded Best Overall in our league!
Then there was a painting competition for the armies attending that day. I managed to snag the most votes for that, earning my army the Player's Choice for Best Painted! Super stoked to have received that honor.
Lastly, I was given Renaissance Man for having a terrible first two rounds in the tournament but coming back strong in the last round.
Putting that all together netted me a nice amount of store credit! It was probably the nicest early birthday gift that I could have received.
So I took the plunge and got something started that I have been eyeing for the last couple years:
I also started a new job recently. As a reward to myself, I bought some new toys!
With a few Castellax under way, I began to put together my Skitarii. So without further ado, here is what I have completed thus far:
2017 is shaping up to be the year of the Mechanicum at the Teun residence...

Congrats! I love 'free' hobby stuff, it's the best kind cos there's no guilt!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nick! I would say that's absolutely true, but I always feel a little bit of guilt when I start a new army instead of getting something for an army I already had!
