Aeronautica Imperialis- Ork Starter

 Picked up the Wings of Vengeance starter set for Aeronautica before Christmas, and here are the results of the Ork half of the box. 2 Fighta Bommaz and 3 Dakkajets. Trying to get myself used to "Good Enough" with my painting instead of agonizing over what my hands can't do now.

Colours used:  
Wraithbone (Base)
Talassar Blue (Body)
Iyanden Yellow (Panels)
Blood Angels Red (Panels)
Leadbelcher (Metals)
Black Templar (Some details and canopy)
Calgar Blue (Drybrush)
Flesh Tearers Red (Rokkit Tips)
Nuln Oil (wash on the dakkajets to try it)
Agrax Earthshade (Washed the Fightas. Think I prefer it to the Nuln)

TYOV- Experience 1

 Prompt 5: Kill someone you love to stop them from exposing you. (I checked off the woodcarving skill). Added to Memory 1. I try acting like nothing happened. A lot of people went missing that night, only some were found but fewer still were still alive. I hide my torso and wrap a sack of hay under my clothes to make me look...normal. It works for awhile. The skin healed but my insides won't come back. What I can't hide is my hunger. God but I am hungry all the time. Nothing I eat fills me. It's not till I find myself elbow deep in sheep gore one night that I realize what I need to eat. This fills me for awhile. My Father is carving with me one evening and slips. Cuts himself. Blood comes out of his hand. It's not the first time it's happened, but something is different this time. I can't stop staring at the wound. My mouth waters. Before I can stop myself I'm licking what spilt up off of the floor like an animal. Panic in his eyes. Panic in the air. I smell...

Returning to wargaming with 15mm Five Parsecs

Image
 Guess who is ostensibly back after what, three? Four? Years of not posting on here. A lot changed. I got super busy volunteering with a wargames store locally and even moved house. Said store is now closed while pending a hopeful move to a new location, and my new apartment has a good bit more floor space, which means hopefully more games. Specifically: Solo wargames!  I've already tried my hand at several solo journaling style RPGs, but next to try is my hand at Five Parsecs From Home. So, I've picked up a new table, sized it out to see what kind of space and terrain I'm working with (specifically in 15mm) and rolled up a crew. I'll be working in 15mm for two reasons. One; I'm still unemployed so 15mm is as ever a nice economic solution with still a lot of character (and I have a good few minis in that scale already). Two; while I could fit a 3 foot by 3 foot table in my space, it would be a LITTLE too big to keep set up comfortably, and a 2x2 board feels a lot le...
