Scar's 2nd Illness Challenge

Greetings all.
Once again the Horned One has frowned upon me (if you don't believe Pestillens) and I have been striken down with a painful foot infection.
I am on 2 types of antibiotics and if it hasn't cleared up a certain amount in 48hrs I have to go to hospital apparently. :o

As it stands, i'm currently sat with my throbbing painfull foot in a warm salt water bath, with lucozade in abundant supply. My head is throbbing, along with all my joints, as I have a fever and flu like symptoms from the infection.

I am not looking for sympathy (well not much anyway :P) as i'm not that type of guy. I also can't stand being off work, as it bores the hell out of me and as soon as I can go back I will. Until that time arrives, I am going to do some painting etc, in a challenge style format to stop myself going stir crazy. So everyone FEEL FREE TO JOIN ME!
I'll be on msn if I can be as well. ;)

This is a usual challenge style thing, so the PRS points available are as follows;

6+hrs particpiation - 1 PRS point
12+hrs particpiation - 3 PRS point
18+hrs particpiation - 5 PRS point
24+hrs particpiation - 6 PRS point

....then a further 1 PRS point per 10vvp's you complete.


Post up those starting images and start times and lets get going! :)

I will put up an image in a while as I go, but my start time is 1.30pm (UK time).

Get better. That's an order !

When I get home, I will look for something (besides my wows) to paint/model etc.
JUST to support my fellow council-comrat. Have a bit more of the paint-fumes dear friend. ;)

ok, i am still new to these PRS points stuff. So whats the objective of the motivational competition you got here. I see 6 hours or more, so is that just extra credit for sitting down and painting for those time frames? And then additional points if you actually complete vows in those time frames? Also how long is this contest on for?(as when does it end so you don't get the extra points)

Just checking.

Update:
5 hours later...


Fully based Spearmen
And a Prince, who is STILL not finished... but he's getting there. If you can't tell: He's been based, but not base painted. The rock is painted. His cloth is fully painted, and his lance arm.

Sorry no pics, as I went in a Moulder-direction. Or gardener...... :huh:

Explanation: I went to buy a bunch of old Tyranid stuff, as I am starting in an experimental BloodBowl league. And I go for Tyranids :blink:
One of the types is Hybrid/Cultists and I am trying out some strange mix.
ATM I have chopped the legs of a basic Human plasticplayer and will fit them with a SpaceHulk genestealer upperbody. Only 2 arms, most likely shortened rending claws. I am cosidering switching the head to a skaven one, just to get a little rodent influence. But they are so damn small.

Well, just keeping you a bit informed/confused. ;)

I got nothing extra done in the end.
Had dinner and am now going to bed. If i'm still ok tomorrow I will carry on, as I can't go to work.

However i've noticed that there is some redness moving up my foot to my leg and this 'tracking' was mentioned to me by the docotor. If its worse in the morning then i'm going to have to go to hospital. :(

Night all and good luck to those continuing! :)

That chariot looks so good! The front looks like a halloween pumpkin... the look you were after?
