That is a lot of undead! Are you enjoying the Mantic line?
Yes indeed i am. To quote from someone on the mantic blog:
"£102 spent at GW = 40 armoured undead models.
£100 spent at Mantic = 220 undead models (40 of them armoured!)
“Over 5 and a half times cheaper"
The models are wonderful and the quality is better than GW. fewer mold lines and everything.
This Mantic thing could be good, i mean if GW had some competition, they might lower their prices!! Slim chance of it happening, but we can only hope

Firstly I have to say some of the armies on this thread are mind-blowing in size and quality. Its great for ideas and inspiration to get painting.
Now ive finally got around to getting my armies together for group photos, so here they are:
My Deathguard Chaos Space Marine Army (approx 2000pts):
Including Inquisitor Eisenhorn based Daemon Prince and corrupted metal Grey Knight terminators
My Disgraced Black Knights of Mousillon Bretonnian Army (approx 1500-2000pts)
Every model (except horses) is metal in this army. Ive got a big bag full of enough bits for another 2 units of 9 Knights of the realm, all converted from Voland's Venators regiment of reknown
My Sisters of Battle Army, The Sisters Venatores (approx 2000pts)
As can be seen this very much work in progress, but the idea is the army is from a Hive world and such has adapted to fight in tight confounds and upon the ash wastes
My Lizardmen Army (approx 6000-7000pts):
The army ive had the longest, still needs a lot of work to get it all finished....maybe it will happen some day! Picture doesnt show the 3rd (old style) stegadon in pieces, as well as another unit of (old style) temple guard)
|
 10000pts - Sisters Venatores
2500pts - Imbros Irregulars
 - 3000pts
Alpha Legion (HH era) - 7000pts finished
Army of Mousillon - Bretonnian Black Knight army - 3000pts (66% painted)
Host of Xblanque - Lizardmen Army - 7000pts (50% painted) |

@scrunty, do you have a thread you can link me to that shows some closeups of your Nurgle army? I am in the process of painting/collecting up a plague marine army and looking for inspiring stuff (particularly in tanks and Typhus)

Wow. I cannot comprehend how some of you fine painters manage to get so much done! I have been playing for years (off and on) and only really have one finished army to my name.
I'm sorry I've forgotten your name, but whoever it was that painted that Cygnar army with the white and purple warjack, that was just beautiful. Stunning work.
Also, the Exodite army was a real favorite too. Nice work there, it's amazing how different head swaps and an atypical paint job can make an army look!
The aforementioned one finished army... Storm Eagles.

Is this a counts as Blood Angles army or what because I see a couple of melta guns in the assault squads. I am confused.
