Well there will have to be more in the future - but I have enough for the time being - I need more shelves!

I'm trying to up my game with this mid 90s squad leader. He was very enjoyable to paint, simple and very well sculpted.

He looks great weets!

Very nice, love the skin work

i first read:

I have enough funky looking slaneeshi beasts to be going out with...

er... disturbing^^

Nothing like a date with a slaneeshi beast - they are real party animals... chuckles.

yep...that at least...a party to either remeber for ever or a case of total repression^^
whatever comes first^^

Very nice job on the Catachan Sergeant, weety.

I've known a few Slaneeshi beasts myself
ANd yes, the one-eyed Catachan is painted very well! Much better than mine.

Saw this and thought of you :p

that pic raises a fair question tho... where are the promised squats, eh? been a long time since the last one^^

Very true.

Btw Vik, found out my wee one has chickenpox, could explain the wake up calls recently.

oh dear...that poor young man...remember the time i had them...but i was way older... about thirteen...well it is useless to wish him to get better soon... this will have to take it´s turn.... but to keep him from scratching will be quite difficult...i then only wish you that he doesn´t get them zits in his face.... nasty marks it can leave for a lifetime...

Nah, its all on his back so he cant reach them, am seriously beginning to think my wife is a daemonette and between us we have given birth to a nurgling!

omg... you are one bitter man^^ but you have seen in your son before a gift... and father nurgle is pretty generous... by the way... the combination of the letters "gift" is in german the same as in english poison^^ funny ain´t it? but reading that only his back is involved this might not be too rough on him then after all...did you check behind his ears? thats a sure point where zits will apear...

I am not bitter, I was trying to be humourous :p

They are coming up his neck but not his ears yet, and no I didnt know gift had the same letters as poison in German.

Without the spots and runny nose he is still just Ben, it doesnt seem to bother him at all, except when gran tries to smear him in calamine cream

isn´t that the stuff that would make the itching go away? well if it isn´t needed stop using it... as with kids and medicine less is more^^

also no real nurgling if his face is not covered^^ you can´t ask a follower to show his back to make sure if he was gifted my father nurgle^^

Ah but maybe the transmutation is hidden, so as not to raise the ire of the inquisition and their dreaded fluffy pillows.
Ithink its more grandmas cold hands tickling him lol

lol... is he laughing or is he shuddering?^^

dont know he keeps squirming and making a weird huhuhuhuh noise at high speed which i have never heard before.

Anyways Weety we demand images of your squats

Squats are space Dwarves, and Dwarves value quality and engineering over everything. There is no way in hell that Squats would drive around in a Rhino when a Chimera has a higher side armor value. Of course, the Rhino is an Ancient STC design built by the 31st Millenium equivalent to Mercedes Benz too, maybe it is better engineered.

Mercedes Benz badge on Rhinos and the like I love it

Yup in the book, the Squat boxed set is called Space Dwarves

lulz.

More squats? maybs... I've got that scrunt walker. And a few heavies yet to paint.

Or maybe I will just give you some group shots to keep you all happy - too late now though, the big lamp in the sky has gone down

Er...but a Rhino has higher side armor than a Chimera. The latter has the advantage in its front armor.

The painted IG sergeant is excellent! It's a very characterful figure too.

You are right..never listen to a terrain guy's ravings about foreign politics or game rules.

I thought they got the rhinos when the beakies tried to turn them down. "No way ten of us are getting in there, give it to the short-asses."

..And they shall know no fear, except beakie farts in a tin can.

Although looking at the pic again, they did keep the same size ratio. I see 22 squats, a crewman and a commissar

"Look, it holds ten of those 15ft tall, armoured gods with backpacks in. Surely a couple of dozen of you stumpies can get in there."

" No One tosses a Dwarf!"

The big lamp's gone down, somebody somewhere is trying to toss a dwarf, and peeps are worried about what smell is going to emanate from that power armour when it's finally cracked open after 20 years of war.

Must be Tuesday at weety's.
