I have an idea and I wonder if the few of you who watch this would be interested....
I am a big time starcraft 2 player. I love watching various live streams of people either playing professional games or casting them.
I also like to paint when I am with a group of people....
What if I set up my webcam with a chat room, so people can watch me while at the same time painting figures themselves? We could chat about painting things, 40k, or just any bullshit we want to. The idea is for people who paint better in groups, but cannot find a group to paint with, and would like to spend an hour or two just painting and bull shitting.
I don't know if this would be a stupid thing to do, but I already have a webcam account set up on Justin.tv, so I thought why not?
I could have people who want to participate join a mailing list, so I could just email out something like "I am going to start painting in 30 minutes". Ugh.... I guess I would benefit from getting a twitter account for this probably since that is much faster?
I would probably add everyone on my AIM list and notify people like that?
What are your thoughts on this? Be honest. Stupid idea, or are you interested?

Da mOrkanOrk's Geerage Mob - Finished Deff Dread Pics
I will be posting updates of both finished and work in progress models for my 1500/2500 point double Big Mek Deff Skullz list.
Here are my two main Troop choices for my growing Ork army;

Here are my two main Troop choices for my growing Ork army;
Gortrak Muk Ra, Da Dawg Crusha
(Deff Dread, Troop Choice)
Gortrak Muk Ra has earned the title "Da Dawg Crusha" from his very first battle since being encased into a Deff Dred. Against the Dawg Beakies, Gortrak, along side a mob of Boyz, fought an old, strong Beakie by the name of Logan Griminar. This Grimnar guy fought like he was one of the boyz himself, but being nothing more than just a special 'ummie, he fell under the mighty power of Gortrak's crushing buzzsaw grabbas. His Grot Rigger is Chip.

Ol' Sweaty Gur Prakka, da Immoblz
(Deff Dread, Troop Choice)
(Deff Dread, Troop Choice)
Ol' Sweaty is an old Ork, barely able to walk by himself anymore. He was put into a Deff Dread because a useless Ork is a dead Ork, and Ol' Sweaty will fight untill the day he dies. Fighting along side Gortrak, Ol' Sweaty was immobilized by a Dawg Beakie's Melta thingy. After the Ork victory, the surviving Orks laughed and threw rocks at Ol' Sweaty because he couldn't move the entire battle, hence the title given to him, "Da Immoblz". Ol' Sweaty's Grot Rigger, Chunk, fixed the broken servos in the left leg, allowing Ol' Sweaty to step on and crush three Orks that were taunting him seconds earlier. The surviving Orks from THIS battle ran away as fast as they could!

Deff Skullz Pictures

Oh wow.....
Only in my second day of taking my little blue pill, I can already 'feel' a difference.
It is hard to explain, but let me give you an example....
Before - If I made a sandwich, I would probably leave the silverware in the sink, or leave crumbs on the counter.
Now - I have to impulsively make sure i put everything back in its place, clean everything, and make sure everything is neat.
Before - I would look at my blog and decide, eh, I'll update it another time.
Now - I look at my blog button and feel the need to update it for some reason.
Before - I would get my things ready and go to the store to hang out.
Now - I have spent about 30 minutes sidetracking myself, cleaning up my room, before I head out, including writing this blog entry.
I know the side tracking thing may just indicate another sign of ADHD, but I never clean my room, not on impulse like this.
I am also finding no difficulty painting my figures in my room now. The light still bothers me, but even when I say "I am done for now" in a few minutes I feel the 'pull' to keep painting until something is done or until I deem it right.
I know this is yet not another update with a battle report, and I apologize, but I can feel the want/need to do the reports soon. I mean, I am getting a flood of things I want to do that I normally wouldn't even think about or care.
So please, a bit more patience. I'll get my past due reports out soon. As soon as I can stop myself from painting, lol.

Down the road...
Some updates....
I went to the doctor yesterday, and I am now on medication for my ADHD, of which he said I most definitely have. Popped my first pill this morning, so let's see how this goes over the coming weeks.
Funny though... Last week it occured to me that I can only get painting done when I am with a group of people. I have been at my local hobby store painting all last week and this week. The reason why I say this is funny is because I found a way to use my ADHD to help me with painting, but now I am taking medication, so who knows what will happen. I just cannot stand being alone in my house painting for more than 5 minutes. Being alone drives me insane.
Also, the lighting in my room isn't right for painting. I can't explain it. My vision quickly blur and I can't judge distance from my brush to the model with my room lighting, even under my art desk lamp. Odd huh?
What am I painting? Orks!
Yes, I am getting back into my old army. Orks were never really a love of mine. I just got into them in the previous codex ( of which I thought was actually pretty good ) and made two armies; 'ard boyz and a grot mob. The new codex basically invalidated both ideas, so I sold my Orks years ago.
I am off to the store to get painting done. When I get back tonight, I'll take some pictures for all four of you who still read this shit to see.
You'll be very pleased I think :)
- EDIT 10:29 p.m. -
I am trying to take some pictures of my Orks, but the lighting in my room/house is not natural enough for my liking, so I will take the pictures tomorrow at my local hobby store.
