Husband / Wife Paint Night

In a move that shocked the world, my wonderful wife Katie agreed to help me paint some figures.  Now I know, you are just as shocked as I was!  What is even more shocking is that, is the fact that Katie asked to paint some of my figures, I didn’t have to bribe her.

This is not the first time she has surprised me with Warhammer related activities.  It was a few months back where I needed a partner to play with as my Tyranids were going against a Tau / Space Wolves team, and Katie picked up my Orks and helped me to victory.  The more I have told her about the Orks, the more fun she had with the models and the fluff.

So of course when she wanted to paint last night, I gave her one of my Trukk’s and said, “Have fun!”  I think she’s doing a great job with it, especially considering my limited painting pot colors that I currently have.  With her painting my Orks I set back to work on finishing up my Tyranid Warriors and got 5 out of 6 finished.

Overall I am really happy with the fact that this nerdy little hobby of mine is something that I can share with the woman I love.  Have some fun as you take a look at some pictures from the event!

    Yeah lighting has been an issue for us in the living room. I ended up switching spots with her and she is now right by the lamp.

    And hey, if my wife wants to watch the Olympics while she paints little mans … I will let it slide. =P

    I have to paint every thing he gets… dont get time for any of my stuff.

  5. Lunatic Says:

    Well I definitely don’t have time to do both the Orks and the Nids, especially with the PBL going on. If Katie likes working on the Orks, I will not complain. =)

    Get a knock off Ott light or some daylight bulbs it makes a world of difference! With a online michaels or ac moore coupon they are about 10 -25 bucks.
