naaah, he's just time-traveller

I love this shaman sculpt, its the older 5th edition one (released for a campaign pack Idol of Mork if my memory serves me correctly) the current shaman sculpts don't even come close to how good this one is.

you're right, except that it was called Idol of Gork. If my memory serves me correctly
great sculpt indeed, I have him painted on my shelf too
paintjob on him is the best of the batch.

Idol of Gork! Wasn't far off.

Glad you like him. (-:

agreed to both statements: best in the batch and probably the best or shaman sculpt!

So, for now the blog is complete. Thanks for taking the time to read my blog, and an extra thanks to anyone who participated and offered up praise and suggestions.

Good job nice to see this one pan out, one question, why 2250 pts? why not 2500? Just seems like a slightly odd number to me.

why 2250 pts?

tournament sized army?

Congrats Gareth! 2250pts of greenskins in less than 2 months? most impressive
Few questions if you don't mind:
1. how does your standard day look like?
2. family pic, please wanna see all those orcs and gobbos in one place
3. can you change the font colour in your post? green is not visible at all.
4. what army now?

Originally going to be 2000pts, but by the time I'd finished magic items I ended up with 2222pts.

Yeah sure, no worries.

1. Get up at 7am, do 30 minute work out. Shower, dress, drive to work, arrive at 8.45. Finish work at 5, get home for 5.30. Kiss and cuddle wife. Piss about doing random stuff for 45 minutes while wife cooks dinner. Eat. 7pm start painting and watching tv. Paint til around 10.30pm. Do a few chores (dish washer, tidy up etc) go to bed at 11.30pm.

2. I'll try to sort that out soon.

3. Sure. My bad.

4. Tyranids. Started the trygon last night.
