Hey yall,

I finally got some pics up let me know what you think. I hadn't painted seriously in almost a decade and this is the second squad I've painted. (The first was an attempted touch up of some marines from 2nd/3rd ed. that I I'm not crazy about but I'll post some of these later.

Thanks for the help on the previous list. I've come pretty close to painting my initial 1000pts force and have a couple of things I can paint to add on. (I'll get some pictures up and maybe start a WIP) Any thoughts on what to add in my next 500 pt block? Like I said earlier I started way back with second edition and stopped playing regularly right as 4th edition came out. I'm looking for an all comers list, to get back into the hobby. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

My initial list is as follows (i've done the math and the actual list of of what I have painted up is about 1000 pts so if you notice a nit here or there and the points are slightly off, its because I don't have the official list handy.)

Initial list:

Captain - Power Axe Jump Pack Combii melta
Jump Pack, Crozius, Inferno Pistol

2x Sanguinary Priest 1: 160pts
Jump Pack


Jump Squad 1
Sarge with a Power fist
2 flamers

Jump Squad 2
Sarge with Power Fist
2 Meltas

Ball Predator
Total = 1000 pts. I think I have it written down somewhere.

Where I need help is what to build/ touch up next. I could use some advice on what to add to the list to make it 1500 pts.

The following is not built:

Space Hulk Termies x 2 sets
Sanguinary Guard kits
3 Landspeeder Tornado kits
1 Whirlwind kits
about enough for 15 or more death company.
2 boxes of assault marines
Lemartes unassembled/unpainted
Captain Leonatos (the black library edition)
Dante in Blister
Sanguinor in Blister

The following is painted reasonably well, but needs final highlights/basing/other touch ups:

4 tactical squads two missile launchers two flamers, one las cannon 1 plasma (can add another heavy of my choosing from bits)
3 rhinos
1 3 bike squad
1 assault bike

Unfortunately BA Captains have nothing really outstanding for them. Mind as well switch out for a librarian
