@Max- Thanks bud! it IS good to be here and see all of you. It warms my heart and my x-acto knife!

I've posted some teasers, so you'll see, I have some work to do getting the new shop up and operational. First though, Ladygeek and I are getting married on Saturday! It's a small, informal affair, but after it's all over with, I plan on hitting this project hard. Thanks for everyone still bothered to click on this ancient thread! Much appreciated. Your perseverance WILL be rewarded in time, As I have TONS of new Necromunda Idea that need exploring.

@Kid - Thanks man! I Appreciate you and Alpharius, always been supportive of these sometimes, odd endeavors on here.

Welcome back, and congratulations.

look forward to your progress, on projects large and small.

Will be watching this with interest :-)

The Goliath Gangers had their new operation set up within a matter of weeks

And then they set out to re-purpose an old Mining vehicle ironically named after their own House Goliath




It has already been fitted with an ancient mining laser that still works, a heavy Stubber, and a massive Plow with vicious rock-crushing blades within.

(this journey is well-documented at my other thread http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/6060/500202.page) Starting about page 202

By the way...does it feel like home already? It looks like that at least

Goliath's Goliath looks very promising.

It sure does Vik! I come home from work, kiss the wife and dog, chat for a bit, then come down here. It's a great, comforting feeling. Still sparse, I'll add creature comforts as time goes by

That is an impressive work area. Spacious and well organized.

Thanks Adam! I appreciate your thoughts, but it won't stay this way for long

In case no one else noticed....Necromunda 2.0 Is out!!

Itching to get my mitts on it. Can't wait to see what you do here.

So far, I'm just clipping parts from sprues, filing, and sanding mold likes! Woo Fun!

Soo much detail, little painting hells await me and millions of others

I dunno what it is, but I look forward to seeing what you do with it.

I've been keeping my eye on the releases for it, but no gangs , its more of small scale 40k.

Can't wait to see what you do with it, the only part I'm jonesing for is the servoskull spider crane there for my servo skull army .

You can build your own gangs, just substitute names on the guard lists. Same classes, leader, veteran, specialist, juve. Vets have BS4, and it's possible to go higher. Gear is done between rounds, elevation matters...that's as far as I've read. New box sets, like the Space Marine squads have a Shadow War sticker on the shrink. There are additional rules for almost every faction, including AdMech, so it's less-restrictive to gang lists

I'm actually going to try to paint these individually and doing some priming on sprue....I have a bad feeling about this...

Ooh, started on these as well, will be following with interest

The only way you should have a bad feeling is because we will never meet your level of awesomeness. But you in"spire" us

I don't know about that Theo, my skills are a bit rusty

Priming on sprue is not a bad thing, it only tends to be a problem if you continue to paint the thing further and then when you clip it off there is a load of touch up to do.

I do like where GW are going with this, watching closely.

Well, lookie here, I got SOME paint on, not done yet by any means.







I dont want mine to be just drybrushed, it seems a waste of this beautiful sculpting.

I also picked up a Ferrotonic Furnace kit


It has the OTHER walkway panels


I'll need to get all the panels, supports, and railing bits painted up to this same level before I paint further though. It'll match my other, more world-famous Necromunda Terrain in the end.

So many neat little gubins, a whole set of these would/will look awesome.

Yeah, Theo...there are a lot! GW has a big box set a la Imperial Sector size on their website, but out of stock. Rather expensive though.

It is looking good so far, and really great to see you painting.

GW have done it again haven't they, really nice terrain, that is just about irresistible. I will be scratching some similar pieces up, what sort of dimensions have they gone for, i.e. whats the distance between platforms, is it the 3" which seems to be standard these days?

Same 3" that was standard for Necromunda, except these kit supports are 5" to facilitate you having to roll to see if you fall and take damage, I assume.

moar. same stage.



Quick test fit

repetitive is the word of the day.

Might be repetitive, but still pretty.

Also I think it's more than coincidence that you only post when blackadder is on vacation and he only posts when your absent........

Thanks Theo, BA would've had these things lit up with LEDs by now.

That is looking great, I'm always impressed by people who manage to make terrain, I can never find the time, too busy painting my forces. I'm well jel of your awesome War Room, I'm down to just a painting station these days, just not the same (stupid offspring needing a room).

Heh @Randy- I've got a LOT of unpainted forces as a result
