Brother Glacius Posted May 9 Report Share Posted May 9 Pretty soon I am going to have an entire weekend with nothing to do but devote myself to hobby time. I know right? However, the problem is....what do I devote my time to? Should I paint? I have tons to paint, anything from 40k to bolt action to warmaster. Should I assemble? No shortage of stuff to assemble either. If I paint, I'll need to prep a bit first, get all the priming done ahead of time and such like that. But that means picking exactly what I'm going to paint sooner rather than later. Also a bit weather dependent. So to help narrow it down, here are a few ideas off the top of my head: Paint my tyranid force from the box set. These are all assembled already. I can prime them white, and then go to town with the contrast colors. I can probably get the base colors for the whole set finished and then maybe start on some detail work. Color-scheme has already been decided. Of course remembering it is another thing entirely. Start building my Legion Imperialis models. I actually pulled those out yesterday and just started swearing immediately. Holy **** those things are small with a ton of bits. I mean I've built epic stuff before and it was no-where near this intricate. So a little worried about it...but, if I build the stuff, then I can play with it. I could also work on one of my bolt action armies. Most of them are built, just need paint. And I actually play bolt action more than any other game. Lastly, I could bring some Team Yankee to build. I got a few box sets to build up my Polish force, but haven't touched it in a long time. Those models are fantastic, and while small, bigger than LI and go together very well. I'll also admit that building is a bit of a chore, but it is also very satisfying to see the finished models at the end. Painting is nice, but I never quite feel like it is finished. But I have to be practical and stop at "good enough". Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torg Posted May 9 Report Share Posted May 9 Weather is going to be good the next few days... priming is top on my list for getting lots of stuff primed... without resorting to airbrush priming. After that - I have no clue what YOU should do. But I plan on shop maintenance through the weekend myself - then try to figure out what "Old-Hammer" game to prep for - I am trying to have 2 forces for Epic and BFG painted and ready by mid summer. I need to work out a second army for Epic and possibly a 3rd for variety to paint. For BFG I have a painted Eldar fleet - but it would be nice to paint up the Imperial, Ork or Nid fleet. Other than that... I need to build, paint my DAK for bolt Action lol - although with a new Bolt Action edition coming in the fall - that may be moved to a back burner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
