I've got from them before. The long wait is not forgeworld's doing. actually they just emailed me and said my order has been dispatached. I've had to have it sent to my home in Ireland and my Mum will bring it over when she visits. Can't have forgeworld send stuff to me here as anything sent over 80GBP gets hit by korean customs with 25-30% import tax ><

Out of all the things on that list, the Thanatar is what I'm looking forward to seeing you paint up. I think it's one of the nicest looking mechanicum kits forgeworld does.

agreed hk - it's a really lovely looking beast. Have had my eye on one for a while. Couldnt decide b/t the standard and the calix variant. The Castellax I painted was a kind of a test run for his bigger brother who's now on his way

yeh- to put it mildly. and thats for stuff which is intended/considered for personal use. The ceiling is way way too low. I mean....80quid???? If your getting something sent in from abroad incl postage - 80 notes doesnt get you much at all. Oh postage is considered part of the value of the product!!! Thankfully for GW stuff, there is a flgs about an hour away.....the one and only in Korea that stcoks GW!!!!

Well that was a metal day done. Got 'Orphan's Wrath's metalwork pretty much done and worn. Dirty up and add some grime in the morning. I'm knackered!!!

That must've taken a while!  Looks smashing though!
I'm not sure I could survive doing that much metal in one go, that's probably why my Leviathan never got any paint (that and my inability to decide on a scheme or use an airbrush).

That's awesome. It makes such a difference when people go to the effort of incorporating different metals into the skeleton rather than just a single metal. Looking forward to see the next step.

Another quality dat of painting. Balls - back to work tomoro. Got the knight's head finished and made a start on his head armour and one of his face plates. He's beginning to get his kit on  utterly horrible lighting for the shots but hey ho

Cheers Rygnam. Aye - first time ever trying out a marble effect so was a bit unsure of it. Rest of the armour will be mostly marble with a few slate blue panels to connect him to the admech forgeworld of the other guys I've been doing. Knight is coming along though. Lovely model. Gonna take a while to finish though lol

I'd forgotten you were planning marble on that chap! Now I recall you mentioning it ages back, and thinking how awesome it would look, and yep, it does!

Thx everyone. Means a lot  This guy is gonna be a beast when done (I hope - lol) Love all the admech stuff- so had to make mu own fluff and forgeworld for all the awesome stuff they've got. Knight is the biggest thing I've taken on yet. Have a Thanatar arriving in December too along with some other stuff.

@ LeCacty - no marble for the Thantar. He'll be done in the AdMech livery I've done so far on the castellax and dragoon of Achlys III.
