Okay, you asked for it....

You guys wanted me to paint an Aquila wing on the Valkyrie. So I practised first by putting Arrows on the top on my Rhinos. They came out halfway decent, so I tried the Valk and this is how it turned out. I told you I wasn't that good of a painter, so I think it came out kinda cheesy...
Eh they're close enough to done. The farseer is gonna get a bit more detail on his robes. But this is close enough.
So after playing Tom's guard today and facing his Commisar lord I think I have found an issue. Tom is using (I believe) the Commisar-Colonel (or is it Colonel-Commisar) Gaunt mini (seen below)
The vehicles are almost done. You'll notice that the formerly "blue" Chimera has been converted into my HQ Chimera. Since it will have a Commissar Lord riding in it, I added alittle 'bling' to it and gave it a better looking communication system.
Ok this is totally not 40k related. But I've been a fan of this game series from way back. And this one looks freakin awesome. They appear to have really beefed up the tactical command interface for this incarnation, and the graphics look pretty spectacular. According to D2D it releases today.

Hey I created and posted a link to a shared google calendar. Dunno if that's the solution, but y'all take a look at it and let me know what you think.
Being a "better" Dad, I spent the afternoon playing a large Heroscape battle against the boys. Dustin's 2000pt human army and Jake's 2000pt Elf army took on my 2000pt Ork/Vampire/Werewolf/Demon army (Plus some dragons thrown in for fun...)
The web blog is very cool and I like how easy it is to post pics of our work on it, but we still need a Team Calender to set up battles. Is the little calender in the corner of the blog accessible by all?
Did some work on the seer council today. Tried to focus on just two models so I could get a little further. Still a long way to go though even just on these two.
First. I have given the three of you access to customize the layout of the page
(I will do it, or I guess one of you can do it) for John when he gets a chance to sign in. I really dont care what it looks like. If you find a better planner for the Calendar than the crappy one I found, feel free to put it up.
The current projects. I expect the Seer Council to get done "soon". The exorcists are likely to remain in that state for awhile.
Here is some pics of my army as it progress's to completion. The Vendetta is built and just needs painting......
I just felt like we needed to 40k this place up. The Longhorn gnome needs to scroll off before I am inclined to curb-stomp it.
Initial design for the badge.
Thoughts? Suggestions? Requests?
I'm open to whatever ideas y'all might have to change it. I just threw this together.
I am testing out the posting. It seems easy enough that even I can do it.
