A long time away...

I've been away from this blog for a long time, though I've occasionally swung by to update this or that. Never to post. Until today. Just a brief one to get me back into the swing of things.

I've decided on a few new rules for my collecting habits, looking at the piles of unassembled miniatures I've accumulated over the last couple of years. The biggest rule: build what you have before buying more.

But it's more complicated that than - what to build will be determined by what I plan to play in the near future. Having finished building all my Grey Knights/Inquisition models, I revolved back to my Privateer Press games. A large backlog here, so I'll list them and let you all know what I'm working on...
  1. Warmachine Mercenaries - I have a few models here and I want to finish them up. Currently working on my Galleon that's been sitting in the box for oh... a year or more. Almost done with him.
  2. Hordes Minions - I have two models in this camp and essentially they're part of the first run above. Basically a certain Merc-Minion 'jack marshal and a Bone Swarm for Midas. No biggie!
  3. Warmachine Retribution - this is a larger collection of unassembled plastic and pewter. Time to get cracking! I just want this all done and stored, ready for Mage Hunting delight! 
  4. Warmachine Cygnar - this is a smaller group of some more recent models I've picked up. Nothing too burdensome, and getting them done will put the finishing touches on my PP stuff. 
And that's it for now. By the time I'm done, I'm sure we'll have rotated back to some other game. I've been kicking around the idea of Relic Knights, but honestly, the setting/anime style isn't really my bag. So who knows? I also have to get back to Kinko's (is it even called Kinko's any more?) and laminate the rest of my cards. Something to do on a quiet afternoon one day, I suppose.

Anyway, this is just a brief update - something to tell I'm still alive and kickin'! Hope all is well with everyone in blog land. Adios!
