Yep, child number two (Jack) has arrived, full of vim and vigour, and just a little bit of infection, as it turns out. Still, all is well and we're very happy.
On the wargaming front there's a convention in June (SouthCon), that I hope to be attending. It was a toss up between playing Flames of War or Warmachine. Both will require some painting, but I decided to go with Warmachine as I've more experience with it, and the games will only take up some evenings, not whole days.
To date, I've only painted up my Khador battle box, but as the tournament is using 400 point armies, I shouldn't need to do too much painting. Although having said that, I keep coming up with infantry heavy army lists that'll leave me with hordes to paint!
Anyway, here's the painted forces I have now:
Since these pictures were taken I've dulled down the shine a bit with a matt varnish, which has helped a lot.
On a final note, my wife and I are getting an entry level digital SLR camera in the near future (Nikon D70), so expect to see me taking more pictures in the future, possibly including some step-by-step posts. Not that I claim to be a great painter, but sometimes it's good to see how an "average" painter can achieve reasonable results.
