Was actually just thinking how cool it would be to have a 300-themed army... and lo and behold- I come across this gem!

The model-bashes are looking nice and clean, and if you are actually going with the color-scheme shown on the first page... this army is going to look fantastic...

Consider me subscribed!

1/6th is scaled for 12 inch figures like GI joe so it would be huge in 40k scale

May find them useful.

Lol, I can't believe how many superheavies you have!

there is no way I could concentrate on a marine chapter if I had all that sweet armour

Hmm, you say you haven't forgotten the bugs, then post LOTS of armour, some DKOK and a few marines,

Marines look good man, love the chain-spear

But very glad the bugs are not forgotten

Which bugs? The ones he's selling?

Glad to have you aboard! My GS-fu is pretty terrible so I try to make up for it with halfway decent kitbashes.

I picked up a set of those when I got the heads and found the torsos to be too big for regular SMs I am going to snag some Termi torsos and see if I cant combine the two into something usable. I may just end up trading or selling them.

I'm not going to lie friend, it makes it very difficult. I went ahead and put the box of new tanks up onto a shelf in the closet so I could stay focused for once

I still love those bugs very much! I REALLY want to get my flyrant painted up along with my custom Zoey.

The complete lack of interest in the trade thread killed that idea

Yay! Now you can have captured Gaunt auxiliaries! Screw the little blue book..

Awesome . It makes me want to buy stuff... AH WHAT THE F!

I sincerely hope I get to paint one of those behemoths! The offer still stands...20$+shipping cost

If only! In Apoc you can have pretty much whatever you want as allies so maybe I'll have The Shields, DKoK, and my hive fleet

Sleep? What is this? I think I have a distant memory of it.. yes, damn you and your luck. I don't get "sleep" anymore.

Trust me friend, it's not much

I'll have you know it IS much. I shall never trust you again.

Working on an Emperor's Shields Venerable Dreadnought. Getting some bits together and waiting for a GF9 package to arrive in the post. Once I get the ven dread kit from my flgs I'm in pretty good shape to start the build. Going to make a gladius of overly large size out of plasticard and such for the dread along with the a shield of some kind or something fitting for a ranged weapon. Any ideas? You know what would help in addition to suggestions... a new sketch from Vig

Also working on a counrts-as Sanguinor/assault sergeant with a CC weapon and a bolt pistol. Instead of having a jump pack I'm using some GS (I know, failure in the making) to make up some musculature for graphted wings.

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! USE SANGUINARY GUARD WINGS or BUY FROM PAULSON GAMES --- RAAARGH (and wait for the libby dread conversion kit they're working on for the dread!)

Sanguinor could just be the chapter master who has been fighting for ~2000 years (maybe they have stupidly extended lives like the BA.. except more stupid! YAY) and whoever is affected with all the +1 rules could just be the same model each game who could be "The Master's Champion".


Hope that helped .

I like the ones on paulsons but I wanted a more natural/non mechanical wings.

That and the joints on them bother me.

Good luck with that. Make a spear throwing gun....Like a giant crossbow thing...It'd be tight

I'm not so sure about that Samus.

The preliminary GS sculpt looks ok. I'll try to get pics up once I have time to clean it up.

Just a thought...But maybe a giant red plume would be cooler. Yeah, do that too

I'm working on a appropriate head for the dread. Hopefully it doesn't come out like garbage

Got any pics of your libby head design?

Vignoris will commence on sketching asap hahaha im sorry ive not been contributing to the shields in awhile Ive been very busy taking care of my nephew but to give a bit of an idea for a ranged weapon whatta about some converting counting one of these as a
auto cannon

http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat440093a&prodId=prod20020
or this as a missile pod

Vig, good to have you back! I hope you saw the upgrades to your namesake? I cant remember if you had or not. I just may do that for the autocannon conversion but using anything "elf" makes me feel dirty

Though now that I think about it, I may use the second one for my DKoK army as a HW team.

I love the upgrade i think the chain spear is cool and very defining equipment to the shields that separates the shields from there other brothers...And i had placed two twin links to the elf repeater bow but i fixed to link to the hellblaster...and also i think you should GS the sword i think it would be easier to produces one that route and also you can glyph and battle damage it more easily

I'm feeling a bit fuzzy, GS what sword? The idea for the Dread?

This one yes for the dread

Told you I was a little fuzzy!
