Good Morning All!
A fairly productive long weekend. I got my five starship crewmen built and primed, along with a pair of mini-gun tractors to roam the halls of enemy starships. The turrets were already set up to be magnetized, so I fought with them for an hour to make it happen. Fiddly crap. I hate doing it, but love the result. Here’s the website version. Mine will be navy blue with black tracks and steel wheels. They’ll be shiny compared to their army counterparts.
I also got work done on the battle boards. I’ll get some pics up as soon as I can.
@unclejimmy we’ve had heavy rain and cloud cover the last few days, so our satellite internet has been spotty.
First and foremost, I hope you feel better after your hospital stay.
You’ll be sad to hear that one parcel of land across the way got sold (one 10 acre patch still left), and I had a run-in yesterday with the new owner and his boy-toy commando wanna be. No sooner did he buy the place than he showed up with an arsenal of semi-auto weapons. The two love birds proceeded to shoot up the place, forcing me to have a ‘chat’ with them about how peaceful the area was, and how there were plenty of gravel pits where they could play soldier.
The shooting stopped for a while, but they fired a few more rebellious rounds before fleeing.
They were also not very bright. They had no idea they had bought a swamp (even though half of it is full of cattails), and wouldn’t go into the bush more than a hundred yards, as they got lost their first visit and blundered onto a road a mile away and had to walk around to their vehicle. They couldn’t identify a single tree species.
They almost shot Aran because they thought she was a wolf *rolls eyes*. They put up a teepee- style shelter to sleep in but didn’t cover it, and are going to “build something more permanent next year”… if I can’t convince them to leave. Vi and I are already looking at selling; I moved to the area to be rid of shit stains like that.
Something else I watch on TV lately: Battlebots. Not sure why it’s addictive, but it’s great fun watching two machines tear each other to shreds. Uber violent, but no one gets hurt. I’m sure they’re sponsored by one or more governments’ military R&D departments.
2112 story. Yes, I read it, but it was a long time ago!
Did you get your Traktor Muls tabletop ready? Final pic?
Rosie looks a lot like Scipio.
@tuffyears What do you think of the contrast paint? I’m told it’s blotchy on larger surfaces. I like your colour combo.
@mage nice work on the Forgefiend!
Your ambition is putting us all to shame!
New Trek? Do you mean that Discovery garbage? The plots and subplots are hard to follow if you don’t watch every episode. Also, [removed by mod PM us if you have questions] @unclejimmy I saw the Patrick Stewart/Ricky Gervais thing. It was hilarious.
@rayzryr Happy belated Father’s Day. I agree that spending time with the kids is the best thing ever. My grand babies are in Kingston Ont., a 24 hour drive, so we don’t get to see them often.
@limburger B5 is my all time favourite sci-fi series. It’s brilliant. I would highly recommend binging on Netflix.

@doctorether thanks for all the eye candy! Against the lighter background those wings look translucent. Are all those undead GW? I recognize the crowned figure in the middle. Fabulous paint job on those as well.
Beautiful pics of you and the missus!
I can see my online classes starting today. Woot!
