The Projects in May

What am I up to right now? Well, several things.

I am writing, piece by piece, a fan fiction, God spare my soul. Yeah, I know full well that around 89% of fanfics suck epic balls, which, in a way, is kind of why I'm doing this. I want to write not just a fanfic, but one that is actually GOOD. In time, we'll see if I was successful, or if I just added yet more shit to the sewage pile that is the internet.

Secondly, I'm wrestling my way through the exam season. It's not too bad, I have six exams to get through overall, two of which I think I can do well in, so with luck I should be coming out of it in July with good grades. Next stop, university.

Finally, I'm setting about the mammoth task of repainting and replacing my entire existing Iron Warriors army for Warhammer 40,000. Yes, I have heard the jokes about playing with toy soldiers before (I've made a few of them myself) but what these people don't know is how much time and effort goes into this. I must be batshit insane. Any guy can come off the street and paint a model, but if he hasn't done anything like this before it's going to look like he stuck the brush up his arse and jumped up and down on the models. This is no exaggeration; when I started doing this, my first models looked like haemorrhoids. Now, not only do I have to paint this army to a significant standard, I've also got a time limit to do it in, owing to the fact that I was moronic enough to want to do this as part of an internet-based painting event. Fool that I am.
So that's what I'll be doing this merry month, and probably the next few months after.
