You know the only way you can achieve that is through the
taunting support of your peers, start taking some pics and get your PLOG up (oooer missus) it is always good to see your conversions. :thumbsup:

Obviously need to finish the bases on the Jezzails and Ratling gun.. plus do teeth and claws.
Phew, progress, and there was me thinking I would have to send the boys round
:steg001: :steg001: :steg001: :steg001: :steg001:
now I just have to write a list!
Looking good mate! :thumbsup:
crud, crud, crud!
every little thing i see done in this plog makes me realise how far behind i am!!
Looking good mate, especially like the swarm...
Looks like Lee is currently in the lead of the battle of the plogs! Tell me all is going well mate!

Bwah, hah haaa! I'm winning something! :1st:
All is going well sir.
20 slaves
2 Jezzails
Engineer
left to go....
Might crack on with the slaves tonight.
Right after being forced to leave early last night for a 'I dont have keys can you come home' incident.... I did lots of painting.
Fully painted army will be there on Thursday.
FACT!
Which now gives me time to paint extras.... AKA start the rest of my GT list... and look into some magnets :(
Well done sir, can we get a group piccy for PLOG posterity..?
you can once the aforementioned busted camera is sorted!... i.e its replacement is bought!.
you'll get a look on thursday at the least.
ah crud, looks like im gonna lose the plog-off! I've still got 15 models to paint...
We shall see how this weekend goes......
you may lose the plog off but you'll win the War... on account of the fact mine are out of the box, standard painting at best. While yours are individually crafted, gorgeously painted and based.
and yes yes im well aware of the old 'screenshot or it didnt happen!!'
You'll just have to take my word for it that they're finished!!.

Can I get a 'Woot woot'?
Good effort that man, to best display your newly painted figures I find the light on the lower tables more conducive! Can I suggest we don't try to get too close to the top table at the charge as it won't show your figures in the best light.
whoo whoo.... no wait thats an owl.
hmm, how long 'til you're likely to have the camera working?
I may still win this plog-off yet...
scurries of to paint like a daemon

You doubt my team mates word! shocking! :hydra001:
I wont have a new camera until i get paid.... so People can see them thursday... and if lee wants to claim victory because I dont have a camera at the moment so be it.... *sniff
there's no way that I'll get my stuff finished by thursday!!

Loser, I pity the fool who teamed up with you! :wink;m::
i've got a rubbish picture taken on my phone from over a week ago when the ratties were all painted but only 70% based and i'd started the 'new' slaves to replace the alreday painted ones....
you'll see why I want to use a proper camera to record the finished product!! camera phone is rubbish!

I could take insult from that, but im too tired to care!
Although, i can possibly win this plog off, if i get my stuff finished 2nite, b4 mike gets a new camera, mwah hah hah haaa!
I wont get a new camera until after the 25th... so thursday is when they'll be seen 1st...
So no hurry!
hmmm this is using the other halfs camera phone.... if you look really really hard you can see they're all based!!
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v225/vispilio/IMG_1792.jpg)
and no... im not the kind of person who paints movement trays... unless im really really bored!.
Rats! Thwarted! I'm soo close to finishing mine, just doing the last bases atm!
Good job for finishing it, looking forward to seeing it properly at the charge!
Ahhh ladies and gentlemen we have a winner, even if he had to use his wifes equipment to manage it. Keep that WAAC attitude about you boy, looking forward to seeing it in the flesh on Thursday. :thumbsup:
my army is now finished, pics coming soon to my plog!
Well done both of you, look forward to seeing them up close...
Borrowed a camera so I could take some proper shots of the finished models.

looking good, now to wait for the battle for the true victor of the plogs on saturday!
Ratty-licious...... :thumbsup:
Mike,
What's your recipe for skaven skin? I have 25 stormvermin in front of me and my test model hasn't gone well...
I wanted a quick recipe as I was churning them out... it also needed to be a light flesh as the fur is also light.
Tallarn Flesh
Flesh Wash
Drybrush Tallarn Flesh/Bleached Bone
