Colonial GT 2008 – Duraks Black Powder Brigade

So the colonial GT is over, and it was a great GT. I had an incredibly enjoyable time, even though I went 0-1-4 at the tourney. I came in 95th of 100, so I have lots of room to improve. Even though I am on the WHFB high right now, I need to get back to focusing on my Eldar and my painting/crafting. The paint jobs at the colonial were pretty incredible, and I will get some posted when I return from San Jose on Thursday. For now, here are the pictures of the dwarfs that I promised.

So I have been the king of no posts and posts with no pictures lately. I did add in my twitter feed so there is minimal new content on the page until I get back to the Eldar project.

The question would be, what have I been doing lately?

Well, outside of various life intrusions, I have been performing some minor work on my Dwarf army. I am headed up to the Colonial GT in Philadelphia this coming weekend (April 25 - 27) and will be brining my Dwarves with me. This will be my first weekend length tournament, and I am not quite ready yet. I have the army done, but I have not started on the 3 objective counters I need to bring with me. To top that off, I realized at the end of last week that I needed a Display Board in order to get any kind of respectable painting score.

I came up with an idea for a display board last night and started constructing it. I think it will look nice but we will see when I complete it. I will post some pictures somwhere and either provide a link or drop them into the blog.

For now, check out my twitter feed for updates on whats going on with me and my crafting delays.
