Week #48-63: The Long Quiet

So, after November 18th I got super into the Pokemon TCG competitively and really wasn't painting miniatures. I saw how little attention my previous post got so I didn't think you guys would want updates on that specifically. During that period I went to Canada and played in the American Regional Championship in Toronto. Unfortunately, I receieved pretty horrendous matchup after awful matchup, even getting paired with Tord Reklev, a runnerup at the World Championships, in round three. It was a close match, but I ultimately lost due to my own mistakes.

After my performance I took a break to focus on my current career path which has taken quite some time to get to the point I am at currently. So I have not had much time to paint anything. It's been a tough 15 weeks I'm not gonna lie.

However, I did come back to play at a double case tournament for Prismatic Evolutions at my local card shop. I went undefeated and split the winnings with my opponent leaving us both with five Elite Trainer Boxes.

These ETBs were for my wife, so while I could have turned around and sold them on the market for scalped prices I let her decide what to do. She wanted to open them, so we did. People were not kidding, the pull rates in this set are horrendous. We did not pull a single thing of note.

It was actually excruciating opening 45 packs and not getting even one Special Illuatration Rare.

I did finish the commission I was doing for a friend, but I only have a couple pictures showing off the cultists and a short video showing off the berzerkers. I wish a got a picture of everything together.

After finishing that commission I took on another commission for a Lord on Pegasus for a local player's Kingdom of Bretonnia Old World army.

His scheme was incredibly simple so I got it done fairly quickly. I may eventually take on the other 80 Models he wants painted for his full fighting force. We'll have to see on that one.

In the intermission between commissions though I've been working on my wife's Seraphon Spearhead because I want to encourage her to play the game more often. Especially after getting the store anniversary Spearhead/Combat Patrol mat so we can play at home.

I still need to paint her Kroxigors, but I also need to paint my own Spearhead. I've also been having a lot of fun trying out different things on my own guys. My AoS army has kind of just become my hobby curiosity army. I've tried a lot of different techniques to get different results on my own models.

Painting has been a lot more enjoyable for me lately which is nice. I think it's just been the freedom of being able to paint whatever I want with my AoS army as opposed to painting a unified force with my 40k army. I haven't painted a single Death Guard unit since my last post involving them. I do plan on eventually finishing my 40k units, but the people around me have been focused on AoS so that's where I've put a lot of my focus. That way we can all participate in the hobby together.

Anyway, that's pretty much everything I have been up to since November of last year. Sorry to have been absent for so long. It's been an insanely busy year so far and I don't see it slowing down whatsoever.

Be safe out there everyone.

The gang is here

Shotgun Sasha:

Triggerhappy leader of the bunch, smokes a pack a day

Muffled Marvin

He played pyro for 12 minutes and made gasmasks his whole personality

Poky Pete

He thinks he's so smart for inventing "the rifle knife", he didn't know bayonets were a thing and he refuses to believe it isn't his original idea

Ambidextrous Abby

She's tried so many times to convince everyone else that akimbo is a cool and practical way to use pistols, she still has to get more than two shots to hit consecutively

Jaded John

He's really tired of everyone else acting like a child, he's made it his life mission to get everyone to agree on something, he's yet to succeed
