They used to be War Griffons, but when I began repainting, someone else had already painted his in that way. Since he's also got some painted as Death's Heads, I need to find another Traitor legion for the next three. :)

Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!

Today, I cut my hair. It was getting unruly, so as usual I went over it with my clippers, and also tidied up my sideburns. So far, so normal. Just as I was getting into the shower to rinse, I noticed a rogue few hairs sticking up off the top of my head. So, I pop out of the shower into the bathroom, check the clippers are set to 3mm (my hair length) and give the offending area a quick buzz over. I take a quick look into the mirror to double check...

...and realise I had forgotten to replace the length-setting guard from when I took it off to clean them.

:shock:

Most of my hair was 3mm. A loooovely 2" square patch on the side/top of my head is now whizzed down to somewhere around skinhead level.

:cry: :cry: :cry:

I have now redone my entire head at the 1mm setting. The baldy patch is still visible, but given a week or two my hope is that it will have grown enough to go over it all again at 1mm and that should level it all off.

Just shave that sucker. Grow a goatee too and you can join the Mike the Pike "Is he from the future?" club! :D

I have a permanent skinhead patch on the back of my head which is growing month by month. You don't hear me whining about it. :D

today I played the same f**ing bit of dead space 3 that I've been playing for the past month. It's a darn tricky bit where you have to fight off a whole bunch of unkillables until a tram arrives and you run away. Then the next (side) mission starts. Every frickin time I would spend ten minutes tryinganddying on the pre-tram bit, finally manage it, then spend 20-30 mins on the side mission. Itd get late, Id save it, and go to bed. Then when I load the game, boom - back at the tram station. I finally did a bit of digging on the net and it would appear that EA (in their infinite wisdom) decided that the game would auto save once per mission, and not at all in side missions. It's not that I'm doing it wrong. That's how EA actually intended this game to be experienced. There is NO manual save option, other than to save one's inventory. I'm sorry, EA, but I dont actually have 2 frickin hours at a time to play your game. I have other things to do in my life.

Stupid, stupid, STUPID game design ruining an otherwise very fun game in a good franchise. I am done with dead space 3 until they patch it.

An act of foolishness worthy of GW.

Well, I hope your luck turns around tomorrow, MiJ.

Today I spent some time painting up the BA terrain to Table top starndards. I also primed 5 more figures and began painting them tonight.
