Very deserved I'd say!

Thanks Sgt Oddball, I'm sure you'll be included soon. You've contributed so much more to the community and your minis look brilliant.

Well done sir! Twas a cracking idea and looks bloody great

Thanks man, I'm not sure Lego will still count me as community since I rolled into the SAS team though

A mere technicality

So what role have you taken on in SAS?

Well I've been involved with proofreading the rulebook prior the kickstarter, what I do now is just being another pair of eyes on anything that can use it, various odd jobs and generally sticking my nose into everyone's affairs

I had no idea. Thanks for all you've done then!

Yeah I didn't make an announcement about it or anything, and the stuff I actually have on here like my blog and battlescribe files aren't SAS-connected. Anyway, let's not turn your thread into a huge slow-chat . Have any more MEdge painting in the pipeline?

Congrats on the showcase, well deserved!

Cheers EDC

@Sgt Oddball - I still haven't finished the Hunter Warmech or first squad of Contractor Engineers. I think I'm a little worried I'll mess them up.

I've just finished painting up a Nephilim Jetfighter (see "my miniature blog" link in my sig) which I am very proud of and am going to be painting Gandalf for Paradigm's painting challenges. With the recent post about the Angel Keepers I am on the brink of just giving in and making one. I have it all planned out but I need to firm up my close combat weapon choice. I'd really wanted to use a staff like the Cybel glaive, but Yakface's advice was that it wasn't appropriate due to it being two-handed and über powerful. I don't want to use a wip or flail. I imagined it would be more "prod-like". I'm hesitant to make my own because I already will be using GS to make a cloak and think that may go hideously wrong. The last thing I want is a naff result. But I can't find an appropriate cc weapon that would fit the bill. Any thoughts?

Maybe something like this would work? Any type of prod you could just give CQ/-/-/1 statistics. Alternatively you could give it stats like the Epirian shock weapons and say it has some sort of energy discharge.

That prod is more what I was looking for, thanks Oddball. I was going for it being a cybel weapon and was going to use the Cybel blade stats. That'd be ok wouldn't it.

Sure, I don't see why not

I do love brainstorming this stuff. The problem is trying to get it to manifest in to something that looks as good as I envision

Hehe, yeah. However, the right inspiration often comes from getting your behind into gear and just trying some stuff. Some will be bad, yeah, but from doing all that you'll get the good ideas.

Alright! Alright! Point taken
