Epic way to start a birthday!
12 years ago
Well as of about half an hour ago it official turned August 22, this chakats birthday so yay I'm one year old and my 'cheapest' gift was one free trip around the sun already.. yay for year long gifts *laughs*
now this is not what I say its an epic way to start... the epic way was when I got home... after a long... long painful day at work I got home opened the door dropped my bags off whimpered alittle in pain... and then my eyes... my eyes went wide.
while I was at work my package from BlueTablePainting had arrived and was sitting on the little table I have just inside of my door. (had it delivered to my parents shop as I know they would be there, so I was safe and it didn't get let out and they brought it over and dropped it off.) I really won't lie to you all here... as soon as I saw that cardboard box with Shawn Gately's name written on it and Bluetablepainting as and all... there would be few forces I could think of that would stop me from opening that box ... running to the kitchen and pulling out the biggest meanest.. sharpest knife I could find I dug in and sliced amazingly carefully ever piece of tape holding that thing closed and popped the top.
there she was, In her custom case from battlefoam and unless all the horror stories I hear from people she was completely perfect and undamaged in anyway... my Storm Eagle. I'm still at a loss of words... I have waited months and months for this eagle and now its home .. its safe and its mine! I am the first and only one I know in all the gaming groups here in my home city (as far as I know) to OWN a fully assembled and ready to go painted up for war Storm Eagle gunship ... and the next tournament I go to she is coming along to kick ass and take names!! seeing it just, really made my day. its been a shitty week here or there and just seeing this, on the of my birthday really really I mean REALLY made my day. Best Birthday 'Present' in a long long time...
Sincerely to you all, *hugs and all*
Chakat Silkpaws.
P.s. for those of you who are curious how my storm eagle looks. heres a link of a video created by Bluetable showing off my white scar bird of death! now I plan to put up a photo of her in my chakat tail gallery but that will come later till then... enjoy the link.

Mine doesn't look nearly as good as the one in the vid, but it's easily the model I've spent the most time painting ever.
and I can see it :3 diffently looks like it would take a while to get fully done.
though if I did an ork army I almost want to build one with 3 big flakk trackz *laughs* nothing quite like pumping 16 shots a turn from an army 13 front 'tank' where 12 of them are str 5 and 4 are str 7 twinlinked ... oh and the track can go flat out in the shooting phase and still fire all its guns as long as it aims at a flyer with em :P
