Best of luck to those who are participating on Saturday.

I think Ed played against the second Tyrands army, with Space Marines.

Also, Necrons vs Witch Hunters. Fluff battle of the night.

Busy busy busy night.

Who the hell is Matt Varnish?

[Ed]

what if you don't own a tv like me?

[Grimwulfe]

Then your screwed...

[Benjamin]

Who the hell is Matt Varnish?

I just realized I don't know the last name of Matt who works behind the counter, and I don't know who else it could be. Looks like Matty Ice could have a new fake name.

Jason, you're welcome, my pleasure. The store is overdue on its monthly Painting Social night, which is a fantastic time to see not only talk shop, but to actually meet other painters and players. And of course there's Thursday nights. There's an excellent community here for answering any questions. Oh, and don't use too much super glue when gluing!

Thanks for the glue tip Ben,

Anybody recommend a good primer? seems to be massively conflicting opinions on all the online research I've done lol

A great one is krylon. You can get it at Walmart for like 3 dollars. Make sure to get it in a matte finish, which means it's just flat, not shiny or sparkly or anything. If you're army is mostly dark colors use black, if it's mostly light colors use white.
