oh dear me, that made me chuckle...

I thought it was because I took a bath or shower when I went round some people just don't understand hygiene

I always miss out on the fun competitions.

There's still time Brian

plus its every week!!!

Mohhhaaahhha! My bits have arived!

I was able to put some paint on my models. Working on 2 assault squads since they were started prior. I think its fair. Also gives me an excuse to show off my awesome storm shields

Nice one cappie!

currently I'm doing more model procrastination due to tomorrow being a gak day in my life. So I may not have the 15 I wanted done... on the other hand the SoB Exorcist is rocking my socks off, but there will be no preview images until the GS has been completed. As tbh, I want honest opinion from the impact it may or may not have when it's revealed.

Lols Lysenis, makes sense tbh

How could you put those old masterpieces of daemonettes on fleabay?
If you have anything else like that, let me know lol.
Much prefer the older ones sculpted by diaz.


Also, done no painting yet, but have assembled 6 more flamers, 2 more crushers and made skulltaker on his 3 headed crusher lol.

Lols Ebay is my best option at getting good money for them, same goes for the oop grey knights tbh as well... well you could always bid on the Daemonettes

feeling like gak tbh... tomorrow isnt helping and I think I'm going to hibernate tbh.

so your stomach is now back in business? and right so!^^

I will be bidding on them, i bid on every one of the old sekkers that i find on ebay XD

So your feeling like i was the past few days now?

I swear ill get some painting done, its just the thought of basing afterwards that i dislike.
Means mixing up GS to fill in gaps on the slotta bases that the flamers have XD

Also, finecast flamers are pure gak!
4/6 had base tags that were so badly moulded that they had no chance of staying in 1 piece.
2 had faces that looked like someone took a match to them (so yay, more sculpting work -_-)
And 8/12 arms were warped beyond belief.

Skulltaker wasnt too bad though, just had to fix his bloody banana sword.
Then carve out the skulls from under his right foot.
Then carve huge sections of his cloak away.
Then mount him on a juggernought that ive converted to be rearing up more and has 3 heads.

I think ill go for the chariot route in future.

I've been lucky on the few Finecast things I've bought, they haven't had any flaws.

Nah I'm feeling gak as tomorrow would have been my wedding day dude. So right now I want the ground to swallow me...

Curse you and your ideas for a painting motivational competition this of all weeks

This is one of the worsed lots of it ive had.
Worsed was 3 box's of incubi.
All had a problem with the resin mix and were so bloody bendy they didnt even stand on a base without doing the fething limbo.
Took them back and the guy changed them, but not before we had a few laughs and he threw in a few paints as an apology lol.


Thats understandable mate, and if you wanna chat or vent just drop me a PM

Cheers Jackal, I appreciate it.

I have that problem with lelith hesperax, but I've found ways to solve that problem now so it doesnt bother me anymore. and my limited edition 40k figure is the best casting i've ever seen.

No probs mate, we have all been through and go through gak

I dont have that issue with her, metal does not bend
Managed to get a metal one before it switched to FC lol.

Do need to sell my DE at some point though 0_o

why sell it?

I have never, and will never sell armies... I sell units no longer of use to me. for example I'm selling my GK's and at a later date, I will upgrade to the awesome plastic ones.

Im done with my entry. Just have to Photo it!

Mainly a space issue mate, and i also dont run them as often as i'd like to.
My nids and daemons take the main place in games.

So i need to find a home for them now, and with the proceeds i can expand on my nids or daemons.

Thinking of going for a bloodbath apoc formation.
But it requires angron and 6-12 bloodthirsters lol.

BAD JACKAL, BAD!!!


O_o your keen Cappie o_O

Hey, i need to find £360 for 10 thirsters and another £120 or so for the FW thirster.
Evil and blood dont come cheap these days :(

The DE would atleast pay for the FW one and i could pick up 2 thirsters a week without breaking the bank.

And this is EXACTLY why I HATE failcast and when I start either my Nids or Necrons, or hell ANY other army I am getting secondary models, If I get horrid models from failcast. . .GW will get my wrath and get me a new one. Until I am sastified (which is easy to do, make it right the first time and I am good )

Most of my nids are metal instead of finecast

3 finecast tyrant guards.
3 metal thropes
6 metal hive guards.
3 metal lictors.

Until I am sastified (which is easy to do, make it right the first time and I am good

LOL!!!!

all my special Nids, will be finecast... so much easier to convert. as is my wont... mainly because I hate special units all in monopose... for example the hive guard and venomthropes. but also the Tervigons... hence the chop andf glue lols...

I'm with you man...It's against the crowd, but I think that Finecast was a really good idea! - From the few I have done, the detail is much crisper, and they are very easy to convert!

I have also not experienced any imperfections like bubbles that others have either though..

unfortunately, I have a sneaking suspicion that my order I'm waiting on will end up containing misscasts now I've said that lols

big brother is watching you, huh?

lols don't joke about Big Brother Vik... that tv show annoys the gak out of me...

Relax mate, out of all my finecast models only about 5% have suffered bad problems.
Usuaully its just a bit fuzzy and you can clean it then fill a few bubbles.
My flamers did have chunks of the mould on them though, so i think ill wait before ordering more of em XD

Metal Hiveguard are so bloody annoying. . . Those legs!
