That's gorgeous, Tyranid Horde! I'd say it seems likely you'll win to me!
Uhh, back on topic, practically finished my Not-Lelith pwning Not-Lucius diorama. Fixed up Lelith's hair giving it more depth and a few other things, might post photos tomorrow. I also began working on some Chaos Space Marines I've had lying around for ages. With them done, I'll have a ten-man squad. Thinking of beginning work on my Daemon Prince, too so if anyone at my club wants to play a Chaos Army (or "Havoc Brothers"), They can have more options and might be able to fill out a 2,000 point list eventually

Pretty much finished my Chaos Marine squad so I finally have a ten-man squad of Chaos Marines (or Havoc Brothers for Grimdark Future) I have them, the Chaos Sorcerer in Terminator armour (which is still an amazing mini even though he's like twenty years old now) Fifteen cultists and twelve Traitor Guard finished, so enough to play a small game of Grimdark Future. Their fluff is they capture enemies (especially enemy Marines) and torture them until they break their enemy into joining them and they flay off the flesh of their broken victims and wear their flesh as leather dick towels and make it into belts etc. So one Chaos Marine might be fighting alongside another who has his skinned flesh hanging off his pauldron lol. Haven't thought of a name for them yet. They also paint their armour with the blood of their enemies.
I got a bit stuck on what to do next even though I promised myself to begin painting my daemon prince. But I decided to finish assembling my Morrigan from Dark Siders statue so I might begin painting her and my Samus Aran statue while I'm going through my backlog.

Very nice piece! Automatically Appended Next Post: This:

To me, there is just something enormously fun about a palace coup. Whether that palace is in Valois France, Caligula's Rome, Gondor, or the Grim dark grim darkness of the grim dark future (did I mention it was grim and dark?) this palace fills the bill.
I'm hoping to run a 40k universe fight in it next weekend. Looks to be fun!

Thanks a lot, Napoleon in space  glad you like him!
I primed my Morrigan Aesland and Samus Aran statuettes and I forgot how annoying it is priming larger things. But eventually managed it and I've begun painting them. It'd be nice to get them done after they've been sitting around my hobby space for months now.

Really, very cool indeed. I have to confess that the face had me thinking that the knight was a lady in armor. Joan of Arc, maybe? But regardless, really a fine piece of work, IMO!

Finally got these three usable
Questoris Knights for Adeptus Titanicus, my own house colours, House Leopardus, chosen because I like purple but haven't yet really used it for anything other than a trim colour
Edit: does the picture load for anyone? I can get it with right click and open in new window, no idea why it doesn't post here other than its hosted on my own site

Yeah, I can understand that misunderstanding.
Had the game night again tonight. We played Grimdark Future: Firefight 2v2. I played as the not Harlequins, my young ally, not Chaos Marines, and the other side was not Dark Angels and not Custodes. Was fun, we couldn't finish on time, but I took photos to set up the next week. Managed to take out a Dark Angel marine with my Harlequin with only a CCW due to some very lucky rolls.

the only real reason to have two is because you do not yet have three
need to did my rats up and get them on the table again
anyway, today I is mostly supervising a 3d printer making some buildings for Adeptus Titanicus, game at the weekend and it occured to be I only have a few small Battletech buildings which will do for knights but are hardly up to the job for titans

Honestly I'll never use 3. There's just too many things in the Skaven book I like running to sacrifice enough pts for a 3rd furnace. Maaaybe 2 on occasion. Definitely not 3.
And the only reason I have the 2nd is because a local shop had one of the old Start Collecting Pestilence boxes marked way way down. It was cheaper to buy that & convert the rats into censor bearers than a get a 2nd Plague Claw + the actual censor bearer box.

I see where you are going.
its four right? or maybe five of them...
has to be said I don't think there are many models in the range I don't like, even the old plastic rat ogres with a bit of green stuff are decent enough

More progress on my Morrigan Aensland and Samus Aran in Zero Suit statuettes. Samus, especially, painted her hair with a yellow from the fancy acrylic range by Scale 75 as I bought a big box set when it was on special on gap games. It's easily the best yellow I've used so far, covered so nicely. For the base colour on her suit, I used a Lite Ultramarine Blue from the box, it's a very nice looking blue, but it's taking quite a few layers to cover properly, but it's a dark colour over a light grey primer so that makes it a bit harder. The blue is perfect for her suit, though.
