Nope, I came up with a name, then forgot about what name I took and the typed his love life. Total coincidence. I you hadn't pointed it out, I wouldn't have noticed. ^.^

lol....that is possibly a very deep rooted freudian error?^^ best we stop it right here^^

how is your WIP doing? you can show the minisculest development here too, you know?^^

vik

The painting is nearing completion. The models's curently in a state in which I can't show the model because if I did, you won't see the last add on's

Depending on my lazy state at the moment, I will have it finished, let's say,...tomorrow

ok^^ we will be here waiting for your pics^^

Hey folks glad to see this topic has hit a nerve with the more immagination inclined folks here on dakka

To stave off the dreaded wall of text could i suggest waiting to post stats untill you have a nice WIP pic of your chraracter , that way we will get to see the mini and his stats , side by side.


@ scrazza look forward to seeing your creation matey

No need to feel guilty scrazza , it is an open thread

@ Vik nearly mate he is a lithuanian noble Jan Karol Chodlkiewicz http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_Karol_Chodkiewicz i think the head looks quite like him , and the hair give a sense of celtic warrior imo

whoa... you jsut opend a massive historical gap for me...have to be careful^^ where i step^^

just realized that special tift of hair ontop^^ jep very acording to your pic of Karol Chodlkiewicz ...one has to wonder how on earth you come up with those pics...^^

@Viktor

Liking this thread. As soon as I have routed through the bitz box I will see what I can come up, thanks very much. This has given me something to do

Could you do a tech magi or something along those lines?

Here is my model, not very impressive, but I wanted to keep this simple. Plus, it's the test model for a possible new Guard Scheme

The base is getting some touch ups, as discussed here: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/294909.page

yep! that is a cool mini! commented on the base in your blog already

@ neil101: can I multiple characters?

Thanks Vik! Back on my blog I noticed it a bit too late But I answered to your post a few moments ago

will look there... i am curently at page 6 and still it rocks me how much you`re putting out^^

at matt. neil will be off some days, but i guess one char per member is quite enough i guess... was tempted to do some more too, but i think a one on one ratio will provide lots of oportunities too^^

Scrazza - That colour scheme is brilliant. I really like the light green next to the cool greens.

Peter

@Peter: Thanks! I'm planning on doing a complete Guard army that way

@vik: ok, that is going to make it harder then. Which character should I do? Hmmmmmmm

the world is your oyster^^

?^^

i´ve meant pry it open and choose wisely...

that being said, what mini do you have to go for a char?

Ork or chaos marine

well as i am not the GM i think this will be tough but well we already have an ork... could be then a small faction... and other players want to do chaosy chars...so choice is again up to you. tho i would go for ork as in a rpg it would be more fun^^

I think I could stand to model something new...

Give me a while to grab some new guard bodies, and I'm going to get right on this!
