Got to working on painting that model tank again. A wash of Chaos Black works exactly as intended, to sayu the truth I am surprised how well the model came out.
The Iron Angel marine begins to worry me... I'm not sure if I'll be able to use him in gaming because of WYSIWYG - his armor looks more like 2+ then 3+.

I probably won't do anything for a few days, maybe weeks. Reason?
I got him almost exactly a year ago. Back then, he was a little kitten, so small that he could sit on my hand. For last year, he became to me almost like a child.
And now my cat, Indy, is dead.  ? ?
When my mother decided to lock him in the basement, so that he would not attack his sister and her kittens, neither of us expected what happened week after that.
The cat has probably climbed on one of the cupboard in there and fell to the floor.
Three days ago, it came clearly that he had trouble with walking, so we decided to let him into the house (which was normally off-limit to him).
Either way, for last two days he's been in very bad shape and could barely walk. Yesterday, he was constantly mewling out in pain, and even though we treated him some pain-killer (in a dose like what is given to infants), he kept doing so for most of the night. We suspected that he might have broken a rib or even gotten a lung puncture.
Today morning, I found him laying dead in the hall, a trickle of blood running from his mouth. ?
He left five half-orphaned kittens.

Sorry to hear this T5H. That's extremely sad news. I've been through this, and now there's nothing I can say to make you feel better. Last year one of my favourites - Willow the Black - died the day after my birthday, and I'm almost dreading having a birthday this year. I can only say I share what must be a very small part of your pain.

I also really feel for you TFH, the loss of a cat is as a loss to the family in our house, I still miss ours that died of Leukemia last year, even though there is another running about.

You have my sympathies, T5H. I know only too well the pain of losing a cat (or dog) that you're very attached to.

I got over it somewhat. Indy's successor will be his nephew Lizard, named so because he's got a big lizard-shaped patch of black fur on the back. He's kind of funny, for a cat.
I went and done some work on that model tank, a little but still.
Began writing a speed run walkthrough for Bloodrayne and besting my own old records.
Read through Gibson's Mona Lisa Overdrive. Some fun.

T5H, I'm sorry to hear about your cat. I know too well how much that hurts.
I play Dark Angels, and dabble with Space Wolves (hence the screen-name). I'm going to build the entire Dark Angels chapter for both Epic and BFG, eventually.
You know, I really should get the DA and Space Puppie lists posted here, since the old forum is gone. I'm told that the SW list plays really well in epic, but I'm not convinced yet. Any takers?

Sorry for your loss, T5H ... I'm working on terrain for Epic. Finished the last of my Giant Mushrooms, and some pieces that look like giant Necron crystals.

My very own feline demons
|
I have two demons among the kittens here too. 2 of Indy's kittens whom I have dubbed "Devils". Demoness and Diablette, altough never sure which one is which, since both have the same combination of jet black fur and nasty attitude. They kind of remind me of him in a way.

Further to recent posts here's my PDF force (for some odd reason half the photos didn't take but you'll get an impression)
Note that these guys are usually fielded as Siegers though they do have a Russ Co and enough extra platoons to join a Steel Legion list
