Should I stay or should I go?!

No painting what so ever was done yesterday. I had made plans with a very very old friend of mine to meet up in town and after working 12 hours straight I thought to myself, "Should I stay or should I go". Kinda fitting with a Clash title as it was Punk night at the Malmö Festival. Catching up was great and being 3 years since our last hook up I think we both realised we should make it a bit more frequent.

Thomas in all his Danish glory! ;)

After trying some of the food around town, the first band we wanted to see was Boysetsfire.

After that we headed off to see No Use For A Name.

When they say, "We are now going to play a really old song" and it so happens to be one of my all time favorites back in the day when I myself was playing gigs with bands like this I felt....oooooolllldddd. :P

Here's a little clip from their song "Justified Black eye"

Last but not least we headed off to the main stage to watch NOFX. For people who's never been to any of their shows or don't know what they're about I'm sure they insulted and pissed off enough people last night. :D

Finishing off this post, here's a clip from NOFX - Dinosaurs Will Die

Dread Knight Vs. Brush Round 1.

1-0 to the Dread Knight. It completely molested that poor paint brush. Maybe Lund will take pity on me a donate me a new brush *hint hint wink wink*

Here are some quick progress shots I took. The first, covered in boltgun metal and the 2nd with a wash of black to add a little depth to it. So far pretty crap but there is so much more to do so I'm not that worried.

No rest for the wicked...

Next commision piece is for the local GW store in Lund. I've never painted a single mini for 40k and boy do they have work cut out for me....Not only is it 40k but its the beast of a model, the Dread Knight. Voices in my head whisper to me, "be afraid, be very afraid" and boy I sure am. It came glued and assembled so getting that brush inside all those tight crevaces will be really tricky....There will commence a battle of the brave between my brush and the knight...I think blood and tears will be on the menu throughout this project. ;)
Here's a shot of the b**tard primered. *EDIT: wrong photo, no primer here*

No introduction needed

By now you all know what I've been keeping myself busy with so without any further ado, here are the final shots of the Chaos lord on Manticore for Playoteket Malmö. You can see it on display at their shop from tomorrow some time after lunch. If anyone in the neighborhood ever wants to hook up on Playotekets paint/gaming nights then just send me a pm, the more the merrier I say. :D

With that said, I hope you all like it. It should pass as tabletop quality. :)

Death Comes Ripping!

A BIG thank you!

Thank you everyone thats paid so much attention to my blog lately. I'm particular happy about the audience being so international which makes me feel good about sticking to doing the blog in English. You're all terrible at commenting though *grrr*. Not that I necessarily want or need feedback but it'd be great getting to know you all. ;)
Traffic yesterday! ^^

Chaos Lord Stage 1

Made some solid progress on the Chaos Lord last night and I'm hoping to get alot more done today once I get off work. My thoughts were to get this project wrapped up so that I could bring in the model to Playoteket on Friday. I used a bright mithril silver on all metal and plan to add layer upon layer to eventually get a dark rusted look to him. As you can see he doesnt have a mask/face either. Per request from Playoteket they did not want to add one. :)
ooh, so shiny!
