Best Christmas present ever!

I've been painting since about 1998, traditionally a lot of 40k stuff but lately I've been doing a lot of work with Fantasy and the odd little side project here and there. I don't game as much as I'd like, and I don't paint as much as I'd like either... but I make up for this by purchasing way more models than I ought to!

I make an effort to try new things once in a while, and every once in a while I'll actually finish something. My current project is the Warriors of Chaos, it's an attempt at doing a 2,000pt army in under 6 weeks for the Fracas tournament here in Edmonton. A $100 ticket should give me motivation to get my army done on time, I would love some tournament trophies to add to my painting awards :-) After that, who knows what I'll be up to!

 Define "productivity" ...

Productivity is a tricky word to define sometimes. Tonight, for example, I got this much work done on my Wardancer Noble before I got finished the first page of a term paper in Comparative Literature.

I still have a lot of work to do on the paper, so I won't dwell on the definition of productivity for too long... surely there's some wiggle room to accomodate the important things in life, like Wood Elves?

I hear you.... for the third day in a row, I come home and see an ork that looks back at me clearly unhappy about any progress... I look at him ... and usually end up sleeping at random places in the apartment...

Well my Wood Elves can't be too hard on my right now, they are getting more attention than they have had in years. I kinda wish I was less restless when I'm writing papers for class, every couple sentences I usually get up and walk around, occasionally doing something random for 5-15 minutes at a time. Somewhere along the line I probably spent an hour and a half on this guy when I really should've been pounding out that term paper. It's 10:47am, and I haven't slept yet... I get to present my essay to the class at 2:00pm :-)

There's always time for painting! :) I really like that little urchin on the stump . .. is it a reptile of some sort?

You mean the blue guy? He's one of the Spites that came sculpted on the model. I did a lot of sculpting to join the metal stump to the resin scenic base I had. The base was a tangle of vines and roots, and it was a bit of effort making the two join up. Also used a huge amount of greenstuff, probably as much as I normally use in 6 months :p
