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!

Dryad progress (finally)

Not enough to warrant a photo just yet, but some work has been done on the unit for the first time in a few weeks. The display base thing is finished, save for the static grass/clump foliage/leaf scatter type stuff. I have to see what I can get my hands on before doing the forest floor texture. Some decent autumn leaves would be nice, I just don't know where to get them :-D

On the models themselves, I'm done all the metallics, not that there was much to begin with. Up next I'll probably do the bases, then block out the rest of the colors so I can get a better idea of how the finished unit is going to look. I'm pretty confident I know what I'm doing, since I've done one Dryad in an extremely similar scheme already. Hopefully a pic or two by the end of the week!

I hadn't thought of Alberta Hobby, but yeah they just might have some of the elusive leaf scatter. Thanks :-D
