So once again Hyde and I headed out to the CSP in Newark for a day of 40k... ... but this tourney was special, as it was a hobby tournament! Every army had to be painted, and there was even a single model painting competition. 06/02/10
So once again, none of these guys are 100%, but I have them to a point where I'm happy to take them to a tournament. I think the monolith really benefits from the gold transfers, it kind of centers the model a bit. Almost like I planned it that way all along. 06/01/10
I started doing some of the touch up and detail work today, and other than cleaning up the monolith this is the only guy I got done. Game number 2 saw me matched up with Tim's mighty Imperial guard. I certainly had my work cut out for me, as he had a squadron of 3 russes, a demolisher, an executioner and 2 vendettas with veterans packing melta and plasma inside. Almost all of his weapons ignored my armor and in lots of cases make it so I won't be back! Tim stole the initiative and got to go first, but luckily most of my stuff was out of LOS and he only managed to kill 5 scarab bases. 05/31/10
So we got a few games in today at the guardtower, to celebrate our accomplishment. Brian, a fellow Necron player, put up fisticuffs and we went at it! He likes the Nightbringer better, but I enjoy the Deceiver, so it was a battle to see which non-present entity was theoretically better, lol! |
