A bit of nostalgia.
Way back citadel did a range of models based on Michael
Moorcock's Elric series.Stand out figures for me were
The two Elric and Count Smiorgan Baldhead.I keep
hoping that someone will make an Elric film and GW get
the chance to do them again.

Despite my love for Chaos, I have to say that my favorite model is the Penitent Engine.

I salute once again Brian Nelson's re-invention of Orks (which set the style for the ones we have to day) and the Slann Mage-Priest by Juan Diaz - he actually made a giant frog look like it could be the most powerful and intelligent creature in the old-world.
In terms of modelling, I enjoy sets with lots of little details e.g. the Bretonnian Archers sprue complete with axe in chopping block and tiny snail.

I'm a big fan of the Grey Knight Terminators. Beautiful in every way. The Grey Knight Terminator with Psycannon is my favourite of them, as I found it very fun to convert into a grand master(with capes and furs galore!).
Ork Kommandos are also pretty awesome. Having a lot of fun painting them, but if I keep it up at this pace, I'll never get my greenskins done!
To be honest though, pretty much every metal ork model of this run looks awesome.

The Tau range, save for XV8 battlesuits (which will hopefully be redesigned with the next codex), and for some reason Shadowsun...don't like the fluff, don't like the model.
Anything by Jes. The cold one knight models alone made me want a Dark Elf army. The hydra is cool, too.
The new Orks. I want a biker army myself, and with the new nobs kit on the way and every kit being interchangeable there's never been a better time to do an Ork army. So many ways to customize your models, so many options and extra bits...GW are finally doing them justice and I can't help but want to get in on it.

I love assembling and painting the basic ork boyz. I think my favourite HQ for them is the KFF mek.
I really like the carnasaur model too, wish it came with a better mounted dude.
I love my forgeworld squiggoth to bits.
Oh and the Dire Troll mauler and Earthborn from Privateer Press are just delicious. Love the Nomad Heavy too.

the new fantasy Khorne lord on Juggernaut. The moment I saw it I was half torn away from my love of tzeentch for a khornate army.
I also like the forgeworld greater daemons, Ahriman, the new stormboyz & bikers, the IG sentinel, Tau crisis suits, night goblin fanatics... & a bunch of others.

1) Archaon. He's so much better at embodying ultimate evil than Abbadon.
2) A model I got from Reaper min. She has a huge sword and even bigger tits. To top it off, she's stark naked.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made. |

One of my early fav's was the squat Trike's. Funny as can get to see a dwarf riding a hog with those hadle bars (sorry not a biker).
My current fav has to be those Death Corps of Kreig mini's. Whooie they look cool.
