Painted Gatormen Posse

I finally got around to finishing up my Gatormen Posse unit. They aren't that hard to paint, and I think they turned out really well. I went with the Strong Tone dip from Army Painter and it worked wonders on the crevasses on the models.

As it worked out well on these models, I'm going to try to crank out a few more of the models before league ends.

Journeyman League - Week 1

The Journeyman League started at Hobbytown USA. We have 10 players so far and a bunch of new faces. I'm very excited for this slow grow league and having the new players play more.

In picking a faction, I looked at a few things. I wanted something I didn't already know well. I also wanted something I could paint relatively easily. I also needed to have a relatively fleshed out collection of the models or know that I'd be able to purchase more if needed. After spending some time looking at my collection, it came down to Minions, Farrow vs. Gators. The Minion faction is splintered in the Journeyman League by making you stay within a contract for the entire league, which I'm honestly happy about. In the end, it came down to the number of models to paint and the Blindwater Congregation had less. I'm hoping to get a majority of my 50 models done within the subfaction.

Domination Event Terrain

I'm running a Domination Event this Saturday at Hobbytown USA in New Berlin, Wisconsin. For that, we needed to make two 6" x 15" mountains and 6 50mm diameter boulders per table. I've limited the event to 6 tables because I don't have enough insulation foam to make more mountains or boulders (plus my hands hurt from cutting it all).

Here's some WIP pictures of the mountains, being painted by my FLGS owner because he likes to work on terrain.
