Hell Ain't A Bad Place To Be

Every time I hear that song by AC/DC it makes me want to go nuts.  I still love it after all these years.  While on the topic of Hell, I just completed a couple of Games Workshop models that are straight from there.  I finished a Chaos Hellbrute from the Dark Vengeance set and a LOTR Balrog that I have had around for some time.  I am pretty happy with both.  I am really pleased with the fire painting I did on the Balrog. Only 152 to go! Check out the pics.

I had a "hell-of-a-good"  meal the other night @ Luigi's Ristorante in DuBois, PA.  The Veal Piccata was by far the very best I have ever eaten.  Everyone enjoyed their meals and we had a great time.  Ask to sit in the enclosed patio area in the back. In a word...FANTASTIC!!!!

If you like Italian subs (hoagie here in Da 'Burgh), you gotta try a "hell-of-a-good" one from Vocelli's Pizza.  YUM!!!! I loved everything about it!!!!!

If you want to go to a "hell-of-a-great" place to grab a beer then stop at one of the Rivertowne Pour Houses around Pittsburgh.  A nice variety of their own craft beers are available and the service is terrific.  Grab some friends and go!!!



Back to the Grind


DONE.  FINISHED.  After more than a week I have completed my Warhammer Soul Grinder.  I must say that I am more than pleased with it.  Inspired by a picture that I saw online of a customized Soul Grinder done by TalonWarlock I set out to mimic the model.  I made a few changes/additions myself and ended up with what I feel is a pretty cool model.

I have posted some pics.  I am throwing in a pic of my Daemonettes for poops and laughs.

So one down and 155 to go.  I did a count and have realized that I have that many models to paint/finish.  Fifty of those are miniatures from the Sedition Wars: Battle for Alabaster Game.  I have promised myself not to buy any more until these are completed.  It gets overwhelming knowing that there are that many to finish.  A hobby is supposed to be fun, enjoyable, and relaxing.  It shouldn't be an additional source of stress.

From here on out..one mini at a time.  Hopefully I'll share pics as I complete them.  Next up is a Chaos Hellbrute.   I plan to use the same color scheme as I did with the Soul Grinder.  Hopefully I will have the same amount of success with it.  Wish me luck!
