Im just gonna come out and say this, I should really take more pictures before I start this blog but hell. Starting today I am going to be posting on a regular basis on this site about the progress I am making on my War band.

Now for a little history of myself. I began playing 40k off and on since 3rd edition. I have played marines, Eldar, and now I am trying my favor of the dice gods with a Chaos War band.

I now have Around 1800pts of Chaos in various stages of Progress See Below for pictures.
1x Demon Prince
1x CSM squad 11 units
1x Squad of Fallen Dark Angels With Cypher
1x Term Lord Sorcerer
1x Term Lord With Lightning Claws
2x Squad of Khorne Bezerkers of 12 marines
1x Predator Tank
2x Rhino Transports*
* Rhinos Modeled for interchangeable Sponsons and Top Hatch for Predator Conversions, Depending on the opposing Force.

and 1900 Pts of Kroot Mercenaries, Note: Still haven't decided what or how I should play these, but that is for another blog.

------
Ok now that that is out of the way on to the units
First off I have my WIP DP,
He has been Primered in Citadel Foundation, Astronomican Grey then inked in Leviathan Purple and apply a coat of Codex Grey and further Highlighted with mithril Silver.



]

as you can see I am Currently Stuck as to which way I want him To look, Should I leave the wash (I really not sure how to use inks and washes properly and the amounts to use) and continue to apply silver or should i paint over the wash and try to use more wash in the crevasses and risk Him becoming more ruinous.
-------
How do i fix the images?

That's quite a list. Now how about some pics to go with it?

well im trying to figure out how to post from the dakka gallery and am having no luck with it. Can you help me out?

Below the lower right corner of the picture in the dakka gallery there's a string of text with "Forum" above it. Just copy that text and put it in a post

Aye, mate. Go to the pic, get the forum code, then post it here. It'll have the pic and, when you click it, it'll take you to your gallery.

Thanks that made this simpler than what i was trying to do

the Right leg of my DP


The Left leg,



Cant decide on whether to keep the purple and silver or to go with the grey and the silver with purple in the crevaces.
More pics later

Looking good. I think the purple with silver sounds pretty good and no problem.

Well after spending too much time working for "The Man" I found some time to take some pictures.
And I apologize about the quality of the photos, I do not own a camera and use the one on my Moto Droid.


Up first is a CNC workshop Troop Lander that i will be using as Either a Dread-Claw or Drop-pod.



as you can see I have already equipped it with a storm bolter.



-----------------------------
Up next is my recently Acquired Cypher the Fallen. Just finished stripping painting to begin ASAP


-----------------------------

Now who is ready for some close-ups of the units I have painted for my Army.
Starting With my HQ
I call him, Jhori formerly of the Blood Ravens


He is equipped With term Armour, Force Weapon, Familiar, Combi-Weapon, and Whatever Physic Powers I wanna Throw on him for the game.



Aw look Blood on the Ammo Belt


The Eye design was completely by accident but i liked it so I kept it

And of Course Little Timmy

----------------------------



Now I am going to spend a Little Time with this model and tell the story of how he came to be. (Not Fluffy) When I was painting this model I had already Primered A full squad of Khorne Bezerkers in Scab Red, So Incidentally when I started painting I had failed to take into consideration of buying more paint. So as I am sitting on my stool, I realized that human blood has a very crimson tone to it. I learned by jabbing myself with a needle repeatedly in the tip of my finger that If i mixed an amount of blood with the paint I got this rather vivid color and liked how it looked.... well the look not the pain for the rest of the week because i jabbed a needle into my finger, but ey we all put our sweat and blood into our work. Some more literally than others.


---------------------

Now onto the rest of the models I have painted, NOTE all are in various stages of Progress


A random fallen Blood Angle, not Angel but an Angle.

Heavy Bolter for Support




Now these ones are the Champs/ Sgrts of the Squads/Units

Well I was wrong about the issue of pictures on my phone I have about 5 more, but I don't want this to become too Pict heavy. So this is it for the rest of tonight... maybe
depends if i sleep or not...

My daughters Dreadnought note that my pred turret is not glued but she wants one like this "NOW"

Well, you gotta give 'em what they want, Pa! Made me laugh a good bit.

Everything is looking great, keep it up!

@LeBaron Well I thought it was cute and all but she understands now that I have much more painting to do before me and her can convert a AOBR Dread to have that look about it.

So all of you can expect to see pictures of more painted vannila marines in the near future, by both me and her. mine being choas and hers being Black Ultra Marines

Wow been awhile since my last post on this blog. I have been working alot more lately and have managed to get some painting in but, alas I do not have a camera to take the pictures. Kinda irritating. Hopefully I will have pictures soon.

Well still no camera, but work has let up a bit, decided what the hell and jump feet first into TGMS (The Great Marine Swap) and paint a White consular for a Alpha Legion Sergeant. Which is being painted by, @The Night Stalker. Below is the current WIP of the marine.


and before assembly and Paint,
