  • The Marshal I was working on last week is now assembled. My only gripe with him is that the glue on the Templar cross on his shield set too quickly, so it froze in place a bit askew and I couldn’t adjust it. Not the end of the world, but...

  • NockerGeek.net: Army Challenge: It Has Begun!

    May 1st has come and gone, and I have officially started working on my Black Templar army for the Preferred Enemies Army Challenge. I thought about starting off with vehicles – a Rhino, maybe, or a couple of Land Speeders – but I decided to keep it simple and start...

  • What you see in the picture above is 2,250 points (or thereabout) in Slaanesh-themed Chaos Space Marines, finished late on March 31, 2012 – just in time to meet the deadline on the Independent Characters’ 2011/2012 Hobby Challenge. I started back in June, with a slightly different list, and ended...

  • I don’t believe I’ve mentioned it previously, but my wife was pregnant over the last nine months, and this past Friday the 17th, we welcomed our daughter Penelope to the world. As can be imagined, this has had a small impact on my Chaos Marine army’s progress. I don’t know...

    NockerGeek.net: Hobby Progress, Post-Baby

    I don’t believe I’ve mentioned it previously, but my wife was pregnant over the last nine months, and this past Friday the 17th, we welcomed our daughter Penelope to the world. As can be imagined, this has had a small impact on my Chaos Marine army’s progress. I don’t know...

  • NockerGeek.net: Noise Marines, Complete!

    Progress continues on the Slaanesh Chaos Marine army, as I’ve completed and based 2 squads of Noise Marines. I imagine by the time I’m done with this army, I’ll be sick of pink, black, and gold, but so far I like them. I’d originally planned on doing urban basing on...

  • NockerGeek.net: Hobby Progress: Trophies and Hair

    Despite it being a holiday weekend, I didn’t get in as much painting as I would have liked, but I did get some work done on my Chaos Rhinos and Noise Marines. I finished up the trophy racks on my Rhinos, and I’m pretty happy with how they turned out:...

  • Work continues on my first squad of Noise Marines for the Independent Characters Hobby Challenge 2011. This weekend, I managed to get the base colors and washing done on all of them, and I've managed to get some detail work done as well. I've got lenses partially painted on them, although they need touch-up (the [...]

  • Going has been a bit slow on my hobby challenge progress, but I've been getting my first squad of Noise Marines pinked up. Above are pictured 4 of the 6 (and if you squint, you can see the other 2 in the background), which have had their pinkness applied. My process for going from black [...]

  • NockerGeek.net: IC Hobby Challenge 2011: It Begins

    I'm taking part in the Independent Characters' 2011 Hobby Progress Challenge. The goal? Build and paint an 1850-point army, along with a 400-point sideboard of minis to swap out/add on, in time for Adepticon 2012. It seems like an imposing task, considering it took me four years to finish my Tau army, but I think [...]
