I got's me Stompy I did.

Say it with a bad cockney accent.

I finally picked up the beast. I'm only a few months behind the eightball.

It's not a bad kit. I would say I've spent about 3 hours on it and I'm 90% finished. The torso is a bear to assemble. There's no support until you have the whole thing assembled so the panels have a tendency to move. Otherwise the kit goes together fairly well.

The instructions are what one would expect from Games Workshop (i.e. next to useless). There are definitely a slew of kitbash options with the trukk and the battlewagon. It's nice that GW is offering a cohesive, yet still cobbled together, look for the orks.

I'm going vanilla on this one though. This was more in the way of getting a feel for the kit. I'm going to wait to build another until the upgrade sprues are available in August. I'm really curious as to whether they are making a left CCW available, like the picture from WD350. The one with the death roller attached.

I'm hoping to start painting it this weekend. If I do I'll post WIP pictures on Segmentum.

That is all.

Segmentum

The Segmentum St. Louis forum is open for posting. If you're a Games Workshop fan in the St. Louis area you should head over there and check it out. And sign up. And post. So far only two of us have. We need more activity.

Real Life

I was going to post part two of my previous line of thought in a timely manner. Then reality stepped in and said NO!

So I'll finish it sometime in the next two weeks. Maybe. I've lost my impetus.

Is anyone going to Diecon this weekend? Is anyone going to Siegeworld at the end of the month? Has anyone signed up for the Segmentum St. Louis forums? Does anyone read this?

That is all.
