2013 in The Eye of Error

With 2012 closing it's doors and 2013 opening them it's time to think about what my Hobby Wants and Hobby Goals for the new year.

2012, what a ride!

The apocalypse didn't happen today when the thirteenth b’ak’tun of the current age came to an end.

Nibiru decided not to impact earth from out of no where and the alien mothership never made contact and enslaved the human race; so now I can remember 2012 fondly without the threat of impeding doom!

Armorcast Cinematic Effects Contest Results

A few months ago I posted that I was entering 3 Dark Eldar Units into Armorcast's Cinematic Effects Contest… And I am very excited to say all 3 units placed in different categories!

Dark Eldar Pain Engines

"Down from the skies it came, buzzing and clicking, a bristling profusion of antennae and a glinting carapace the color of dried blood. We thought we had more pressing concerns, for to repel a Commorrite invasion is to fight a hurricane of blades. Bolters spat fury. Then my brothers began to fall, soundlessly, to the ground. Brother-Captain Alkon was unresponsive. I wrenched off his helmet to find a wizened skull leering back. It was then the xenos attack doubled in its force…"

Dark Eldar Coven Warriors

I am truly disappointed that the cruel fate has placed us in this position, such that I really have no choice other than to unleash my warriors against your population centers. If only you would lay aside these foolish hopes of protecting your resources and return to your homes and families, much bloodshed and woe could be avoided.

Dark Eldar Archon / Sybarite Conversions

"I will never forget what I saw at Obsidian Station. The bones of five thousand brave men lay scattered about the winding corridors. Their blood was slick upon the walls and floors of the dormitories. Their innards were hung from control panels like grotesque decorations of some insane celebration. But not a single skull was to be found; taken as sick trophies by these despicable attackers."
