So on January 8th & 9th I'll be attending Demonicon, which is hands down one of the most fun tournaments in South Australia and whilst I could have and probably should have chose to field my Salamanders, at the last possible minute (and by that I mean last weekend when army lists were due...) I spontaneously decided to surprise everyone, to do the unexpected and field a whole new army that no-one could have seen coming.
Whilst I could take the opportunity to complete my Angelic space marines and bring them to the field, I'm adamant I'm not rushing that army. It'll be done when it's done. We all know I am an incredibly slow painter and projects like the brotherhood are perfect examples of this, yet that wasn't always the case. Before I first took on a casual position at Colonel Sanders' nearby outpost, I was quite the painting machine. Hell I managed to knock together armies within 2 weeks of the tournament they were due to be used at whilst attending high school... Now however, everything has changed. I'm leaving my job in pursuit of more favorable conditions (and hours)in a better line of work and with Demonicon on the horizon, I decided I want to prove to myself that I can still complete an army in such a short space of time. And by my reckoning, I might just have enough time to do it!
So sit back and enjoy the tale of my frantic progress as I rush to complete 2,000pts of counts as Space Wolves in 13 days.
