Thanks Art. Thats what I was hoping to achieve. Gonna have to duplicate it to a point. I want this boy in my army. Mine wont be as detailed though other wise it will stand out against the rest of the boys. Went with a simpler approach with the painting. or I could paint him up about the same and add him to my gorkka morrka mob. Only have 2 fig painted for that so far. But now to see who is next in que for the ork swap. I've got one to do for whalemusic360, sageheart and arakasi still.

Really random thing, here..

I got this marine in a trade, not from the GMS, but off Bartertown as a freebie in a Marine parts deal. I cannot use him, and would LOVE to send him along to someone here.

Let me be clear, I do not want this guy to be a swap, I want to give him away. Anyone want to provide food and shelter for this lost lamb?



And.. if anyone needs a Missile Launcher marine, this guy, from my Get of Freki chapter is ready to be swapped..



(this guy I would love to swap for another specialist.. either Jump Pack guy or a combi-weapon chap.. but propose something)

I'll take the free guy, but closed up on trades now till i finish up the ones i have set up!

I'll take the free guy, if he hasnt been sent out yet

@artsoldier i finish your guy today but i dont have my camara my gf took it for work lol but yeah i should put pics up later on today!

Sage beat you to it..

Ninja'd again
Ah well, fair enough.

Ninja'd by like 8 hours..

I know, I just saw his post
What are you guys doing up a 2 anyway

dunno about you, but it was only 10pm here..

Great An00bis. I haven't started yours yet but I am almost done with Whale's. i'll also try to get some pics up.

I couldn't sleep... haha i just had gotten in from babysitting some kid who took too many pills and drank too much gah. i barely knew him, but couldnt keep him alone not when he couldnt walk striagth, so was up late trying to get him home. he better remember it!


BBL: I got your package, it was bliss! thank you! yours should be there soon? i Hope!

I just had a funny yet very demoralizing mishap.

I had just finished a guy for my own tactical squad, a bolter marine, and was just about to take picture of it but thought I'd show my dad first. I walk into the kitchen and there he is frying my a hamburger for dinner. So, I walk up to him holding the marine and let it go too soon for his hands to grab it. The frying pan was on the highes heat(9 out of 9 heat options) and the guy just vaporized in what seemed to be forever, but was only like 5 seconds. Ah well..

Alright! I am an Ork player through and through and have about 3K Orks in my growing WAAAGH. But there are some good folk out here who don't discriminate just because of skin color. I want to thank Whalemusic for opening up the thread for other model trades. He even signed on to paint some green skins for me and so, I voluntarilly offered to paint a space marine in any chapter color scheme he wanted. He offered up two color schemes to choose from and of the two I chose the Brazen Claws. Here he is and to Whalemusic, be on the lookout for him early next week.

Guess he failed his armor save then?

I kid, but truly my heart goes out to you. It sucks to lose something you just finished :(

Oh
I don't mind, you got it fair and square.
yeah, it should be here soon, probably tomorrow if you got yours already.
Be sure to let me know when you paint them, I can't wait to see.
Also, Which is your favorite of the marines?

my fav. has to be the one with the skull bakpack! that is dope! i also like the marine you painted a ton!

I don't remember which one that is

Looks great Art! I'm...well....in the same spot I was 2 days ago. But I'm pretty slow, so that happens.

Here is the ork boy for Artsoldier hope you like! its a nice change from painting lots of marines lol

So I managed to score the camera this weekend!

Anyways, I'll get some more pics on Sunday. But until then, heres 2 pics. 1st is a group shot of my first 10 marine received through trades.

2nd is the final version of the looted dreads mega blaster thing with the CCW moved to the bottom. Added some exhaust ports to it too.

Nice WM... squad looks great & the weapon looks awesome!

OK, so as this thing seems to be opening up, Gorkamekka has commanded a few doks to sort out some special cybork envoys to go forth and spread the word. So anyone looking for a bit of metal/green love ?

These the kind of guys that do Gorkamekka's bidding (although they do so at a very slow pace, be warned)

i could trade an ork with you

Is that your game board those guys are on? Or is that carpet?

Either way the unit looks cool!

Yeah, I'm up for that Sageheart, any preferences to what you'd want to trade? Off the top of my head don't recall seeing any of your orks so no ideas myself just yet, I'll let you decide whether it's a boy, nob or whatever And as you know it most likely won't be a super-speedy deal
schank has also PM'd me and we're deciding what sort of orky goodness will be transferred between us at the moment

I would like to trade with you too Monkeytroll

Hey Monkeytroll, Are you trading those exact figs? I'd trade for the big one on the left! Let me know.

Hey an00bis, fine with me. What we talking, slugga, shoota, summat else?

Sorry Artsoldier, I'm afraid those were just samples of my guys for those all those who haven't seen them, and Dok Herbork West there is kept under close scrutiny by Upzag and Grimsnik. I'd rather create new guys for each trade, seems a better way of doing it than trading 'off-the-shelf' guys
