Look at the IG, or SM, or nids. They ALL look extremely cartoonish.

Space Wolves, Tau, Black Templars and Eldar are the best. Out of all of them Eldar have the greatest one imho. Unlike BA and nids *shudders*

IG doesn't, I don' really care enough to look at SM, and I don't think 'nids look cartoony, either.

The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

Well, that's your opinion. In mine, they look very cartoonish.

they all look so bland

Nothing like a 3/4'' bolt blowing your internal organs out.


You make it sound like this is something you do on a regular basis and thoroughly enjoy Lord M

And you are still here to tell us how exhilarating the experience is!
Are you Captain Scarlet?
If so can you fix me up with one of the Angels please?

I love the SW codex cover. The Wolf Lord on the cover just looks like he has taken a personal interest in killing whatever it is he is approaching. Following that is the Necron codex. The warrior on the cover is the perfect display of cold menace.

See pics of my Orks, Tau, Emperor's Children, Necrons, Space Wolves, and Dark Eldar here:

I know which one I dislike the most - Blood Angels, especially the central figure wearing huge armor with his tiny sour looking cartoon head. My second least favorite is the Tau twinkle toe robot ballerina. I like the other covers but I really like the Space Wolves, Space Marines, and Orks covers.
