Black Scorpion pirates arrive

 My Black Scorpion Crew arrived at port after 2 weeks of feverish waiting.

1st demo base ready

So, here's the first base of the series I mean to make for these guys.

Yarrrrrrr, pirates ahoy.

Teemu and Marko organized a pirate campaign in our gaming club, and I have been just waiting for an excuse to buy Black Scorpion pirates.
Teemu Hoowever sold me few of his models to get the painting started before my own crew arrives.

Spartan Scenics buildings pt. 2

 I built and painted 2 of the buildings.
It took a bit longer, as I wanted to figure out a efficient painting scheme as there are maaany more to do.

Demonic allies and chaos cultists

 I had so much to paint for my 40k army that I needed to start painting faster.
In the end I managed to uncharacteristically get stuff ready (well nearly) in good time.
Note, that everything shines, I have not used antishine yet because of the humidity in the air here, it has ruined my sentry gun (few posts back).

Spartan scenics scifi buildings unboxing

I got 2 sets of spartan scenics boxes from battlefield berlin today (gret store btw.).

First thing I noticed was the size. They each weight around 10-15kg, which was a small issue, as I was picking them up with a bicycle :). After my wife drove with car, and got them, I started to go through what I had gotten.

Automated Sentry System (ASS)

Couple of days back I was in a toilet and started looking the cotton buds on a plastic stick one uses to clean one's ears or other small orfices. I started picturing them as a barrels of a gatling cannon, and had to follow up on that by trying to make one.
