Hey guys!
I was advised to have a look over these forums to help improve my knowledge and skill of Warhammer.
I'm from Whangarei in New Zealand and recently have been drawn in by a couple of friends to start war gaming. I've decided to jump into Warhammer 40k as I have a rough general idea of the concept and also have been drawn to the models. Guns and grenades!
I've purchased my first squad of guys, it was a basic tactical squad and the chapter I have chosen is the Raptors, the branched off chapter of the Raven Guard. The history and the colour scheme has caught my attention. I'm looking at about 1000 points to get me going and learning the ins and outs of the game. I have a rule book and a codex, but have yet to read either.
I reckon if I can get my camera to work well enough, I might post a little log of my painting and the progression of my army.
I'll be posting around and checking out the tutorials, I'm afraid my painting skills aren't quite adroit but regardless, room to improve.
Thanks!
- Imp
