Killer Snow

So over the Christmas Holiday I decided to take up a project that I'd dropped long ago.  Well, at least try to get back into Game Maker, which I'd said long ago was actually to painful for me to work with.  Turns out, Brent was right.  Just using straight code rather than using drag and drop made the experience a whole lot better.  For anyone who knows me, I'm not that much of a coder.  It boggles me, and I don't feel like I can organize it properly.  I'm a very visual person, and visual designer as well.  If I can organize it by sight, I'm comfortable.  Anyhow, the project.

5 Assault Marines later.

So it's taken me a while, but I've gotten them done!  Yay!  It's taken me nearly a week to do this, but I must admit there were quite a few distractions.  All in all, I'd say this job took me 2 days of work total maybe.  It was just spread out over a week and a half's time.  Ah well!

Genestealers, and Clashing Armadas

I've had these done for a while, but I never got around to taking pictures of them.  I'll be honest, they were a bit of a rushed job.  I didn't find them all that entertaining to paint at all.  They're quite dull.  I slapped on the shades needed to get the skin done right and that's about it.  The actual carapace wasn't at all interesting, but there's where one can see clearly that I failed a bit.  You see, I totally didn't high light the edges!  Ah well.

Eldar Wraithlord, Completed

I've been holding onto this guy for a while.  Bought on November 5th, and bogged down with so many other things to do, it's taken me some time to get to this guy.  I've also finished 8 genestealers as well, but I've yet to get pictures of them to place up on this blog.  I'll do that, eventually.  Just need to bring my camera stand to work so I have a stable platform to take the shots needed.  I kind of wanted to show off the entirety of the two armies I have sitting there at my desk.

Anyhow, this one is finished.  Appologies for the crummy pictures, but the Norwegian light is all but gone these days and the clouds cover the skies often threatening to snow but never do.  When I get to Canada, I hope to have a proper light studio for this stuff!
