My ENTIRE (hobby) Situation

Some folks have been discussing their hobby areas and bitz boxes.  I decided to share my current disaster area and then became ashamed and found the energy to remedy my mess.  Things had actually gotten much worse than ever before and it took hours to clean things up and get everything back in its place.

I'm also going to try and turn over a new leaf and get some commission work done this week... I swear it!!!!

Be sure to CLICK images to zoom in on them.

At any rate, here is my Situation before the clean-up.  I know.  Your gorge must rise at its very sight!




Fast forward a good 48 or so hours...


My constant hobby companion, Fritz.

Under the desk I have a little place to put my feet up as well as my hobby
toolbox and every National Geographic magazine since 1987.

The upper level.  I've been meaning to put that poster up for months.

The lower two shelves.  From right to left, top to bottom.  Rocks, sand, flock,
bases, hobby sticks, alcohol, brush soap, pastels, chalk, Hirst Arts molds,
masking tape, crayons, two Usagi Yojimbos, Puss in Boots, ammo shells,
glue gun sticks, paint water container thingy, old man pill box, rulers and
triangles, cutting mat, ALL the glue, camera, pills because I am really fat.

Top shelves.  Spaceships, more spaceships, and the droids you are
probably looking for.

Bitz boxes and other devices including my buddy's hot wire foam factory,
my glue gun, dremel tool, and an extra lamp and extension cord for when
friends come over to hobby.

My bitz start in here.  This card sorter sits on my desk and I throw random
bitz in it as I get them.

This is a big box of random bitz and also other weird household and
common household items and hardware items which I think will someday
be useful for one project or another.

Space Marine bitz.

Ork bitz. This box is nearly totally full.

Vehicle bitz, usually used on Orks.

My hobby toobox.

Inside the toolbox.

The hobby supply drawer.

From where I sit.


However, the Situation in the game room remains largely unchanged.

Ordo Draconis Armies on Parade

As I finish up models that have been sitting in my queue, I've been doing army shots including them. Last week, I finished up the knight models I had lying around. The lore for Knight House Draco has advanced in the Era Indomitus. The house's pencheant for daemon fighting has caught the eye of the Ordo Malleus and they have been brought into the fold. Their worlds have been put under communications blackout and household forces sworn to the crusade against the Ruinous Powers. They are now known as the Ordo Draconis and even Greater Daemons tremble at the mere mention of their name. Tiamat Drogon Gojira Melificent Falcor Smaug Jabberwocky Jormungandr The Eye Stalkers

How Did it Come to This? 10,000 Points of Painted Orks

One can only make so many milestone posts before people eventually get soul-crushingly bored of them.  However, I'm going to make an exception here because with my Vengeance Batteries, I've reached a total of 10,000 points painted with my Orks.  These points include reasonable upgrades, but not ridiculous add-ons like Kill Kannons for the Battlewagons.  Let's not be silly . Here's a video of the army.  Unlike the one I did for 7,000, this does not include a running commentary of each unit.  I simply cannot find the time to do that.  However, at the end of the post, please find a complete army list. Please try to view in YouTube instead of this embed because I uploaded it at full resolution and it took me forever.  You won't be disappointed! I started playing this game in 2010 when some friends and I suddenly realized that we finally had grown-up jobs and could actually afford it.  I'd always danced around the idea of collecting Orks either for F

2021 in Review and Looking Forward

Newly-painted models of 2021 Hobby progress was largely successful in 2021 with a huge focus on repainting old Orks into the new scheme.  Album for fully painted models of 2021: https://photos.app.goo.gl/CPwtmvia5UQLguka8 Album for repainted models of 2021:  https://photos.app.goo.gl/WxGgtThxS7M6bdmp6 By the numbers: Points fully painted: 4457 Models fully painted: 132 Points repainted: 5467 Models repainted: 205 Total points: 9924 Total models: 337 After completing all the repaints, I managed to get some army shots of the Orks, which doesn't include the new Megaboss or the Bossbunker, but it's most everything else, about 26,000pts in new money: Morkers Morkers Dreadmob Gorkers Mercenaries and Misc. 2022 For 2022, I have a lot of projects on the burner including more Orks, a Cities of Sigmar project, and Tau. As usual, the Rogue Trader idea keeps percolating and collecting one kit at a time in its little, plastic container. Orks: 9x Killa Kans 3x Deffkoptas (also need to rebase
