Update time!
So here are the last things I've painted:
A manhunter for my Khador army:

(also just got myself the alt. variant,the manhuntress)
A skaven lord

Ikit the claw,for a skaven painting contest
(which I won,by cheating....Hey!It was a skaven contest!)
Snikrot


Also got myself the third drop-pod for my raven guard army,it now needs a stripper....wait that doesn't sound quite right...

There,have at it folks
Bob

I like Ikit Claw the best...but that's a biased response seeing as how he's one of my personal fav Skavens. Everything looks really good though. Good luck with your to-do list.

Thanks Bunny!Well,some told me the colorscheme was odd,but having no idea how to paint it,I searched through the "skaven heraldry "book and that green clothe and bronze armor was the one they showed for the skyre(?) clan...
Well,I must be really dumb,because I've just added to my to-do list,a 1000 point army of Novamarines for a badab war campaign...Sigh,wh am I so easily influenced?!
Any how,I'll post some pics of my test model soon
Bob

I am still alive!
sorry guys,I didn't die...yet!
So,I've got some novamarines getting done

Comments appreciated
Bob

Alright folks ,after such a time hopefully I can get you something a tad bit more interesting.
UNLEASH THE RIPTIDE

Nice, a riptide in the wild! Are the wierd nipple chest nozzles a weapon or feature of the riptide or can you leave them off the model? At a minimum, can you glue them straightened onto the chest instead of slightly crooked like the official pics have?

They do not appear to be a weapon, as you only have the main weapon (huge burst cannon or ion weapon) and secondary weapons (tl plasma, melta or smart missile system) and a shield. My take is that it's some kind of vent for the very dangerous nova engine. I'll tell you if it wouldn't look too odd if left off, have to finish the legs first.

Quite a bit of posability in this kit,
I'm going for the straight out of the box pose on this one,
Here's a pic next to an old broadside and a termagant for a size comparison
