Hey all, I've decided to re-start my blogging attempts. I guess I'm not sure how to start, but I think I'll just follow example and start by giving you some random stuff about me, along with the army background, goals, and other things.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
About me
I'm 14 and started gaming when I was 12 and a half. I started out playing vanilla marines from a couple of black reach sets with my friends. after a year or so of Vanilla, I realized how much I disliked them, mainly because everyone I knew had at least a few squads of them. Because I feel like I'm a creative person, and I enjoy being the kid that walks into the FLGS, and has other people say "woah! what are those?" I decided to pick the most obscure army at that time, Chaos renegades. I picked them up because they were different, and they looked like with a combination of good ol' American ingenuity, and some FW parts, I could do something amazing. I started off and bought some generic guardsmen, but when I started to try and get into the real "Renegade" side of things, and buy some Forgeworld upgrades, I realized they were way out of my price range, so they were pushed back into my cabinet of eternal doom for a year or so, while I sporadically messed around with my Knights of Solstice Vanilla marines. Now, I have ammased enough funds for sporadic FW purchases, and have decided that it is time to start my FW dream army.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Mandatory Background
the fire crackled and popped as Rangok's squad of defiled fed it with the rubble of the ruined Imperial sanctorum, the siege had lasted for months, but the city was holding thanks to the talents of these apostles, and some help from Papa Nurgle. Their cult of worshippers and lowlife had been discovered when an Imperial commissar had been assigned to the regiment to oversee the planet, and since then, countless regiments had been raised, and multiple space marine chapters had been deployed to deal with the chaos brewing in the segmentum Obscurus, but Rangok knew they would win, they always did
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Ok So basically the guys I have created are a cult of nurgle followers, that are all a part of a chaotic army. They are a cityfight and seige based army, who have held out for 100 years so far.
The LIST
Primaris Psyker
Company command w/ Straken
Mortar squad
Sentinel squad
2+ Infantry squads
Penal Legion
Storm troopers
Valkyrie
and much much more....

Ehr... umm  Well Its a long story. Basically, yeah its on backward but I decided that It could fluff-wise be a small variant of a stalk tank, and also a creation nurgle made so that the tank was more humanistic... I don't know if i Like it, but it sure is different

Thanks much, I actually despise the welding mask because he is leaning over at such a far angle that he is currently blue tacked to his base until I get some time to pin him

I have a little hobby-thread going in the P&M section. Some say it's the best blog on Dakka, some don't agree, most belive it would be better if I finished at least one project some time this century and not just kept starting new ones.
Check it out, you just might like it.

so...here is me... looking puzzled as gak...why did it took you so long to actually start a quality thread on your own??? seems you are more´n capable of that! more of that! the painting looks sweet! the writing lets us ask for more...
the only think that made me even more puzzled was the backwards looking sentinel too...but since you explained that i will gladly follow if you promise to pour out more of that nice stuff... by the way... i don´t happen to follow that many choasy stuff around here...so feel privilieged about it
cheers, vik

Thanks Vik. I guess I diddn't start because until this April I had literally nothing cool to show that I actually wanted to show. I feel Very privileged that anyone is following me
Finally, the writing will come, I just need some time to do it
@Jake and everyone: Would you like a tute on the painting? because I could do one, but when I do, you will think 100% less of the paintjob because of its simplicity.
Custom stuff? I would love to, but Ideas are hard to come by, especially when I don't feel adept at working with plasticard
Finally, to wrap up my update of the day, I have started gluing the enforcer(Stormtrooper) squad, and will have pics soon
