I'm thinking about some Samurai Jack good guys for my eldar team, too. A S.J. ork sounds fun!

Also, I am greatly anticipating your nest update, Generalian.

Thank you! BTW ive already talked to many people as it is about making a good samurai jack army. From what we can tell it would especially character reliant since the diversity of characters on the good side is well.... Jack. Aku has thousands of villians and minions where its mostly just Samurai Jack and the Scotsman... thats it.

If you want to convert like your chapter master or ork warlord into him... awesome! BTW all of these models are legal by GW standards, so if you if are going to make an ork samurai jack... try to keep the ork skin but make him wielding a kantana and have the white robes. That would be awesome! Samurai Jork.

gaaaaaaaaah my want pics now! god i loved samurai jack...i wonder if that affected my choice of army later on...XD
hey i thought of a way you could add jack to ur army
as an apoc only unit
he has WS6 BS 5 S 4 T 4 W 4 I 6 A 4 ld 10 Sv 5+ with a 3+ inv is fearless, has rage, ferocious instincts (when an opponant rolls a 1 in CC they take an automatic Str 4 hit) whirlwind of gore (instead of attacking he automaticly strikes all units in base to base contact) and weilds a two handed katana which strikes at Str 8 and has rending (strikes at Initiative 6) and joins ur opponants forces (because of the following special rule) all ur units with line of sight to him count as in synapse as they rush foreward, as the minions of the mighty Aku, fearless to danger and their opponants to earn glory slaying the infamous Samurai Jack XD what do you think? i think he'd be around 160 to 180 points since he's basicly chapter master seth

edit: yay you added pics! wow...thats...um...wow...
i think i may need a bigger gun to kill that thing...

ehehehehehehehehheheheh I see you noticed now the entire purpose of this army!

Many do not fear Dark Eldar, Chaos, or even Nids when they see them on the table. But when I and my opponnet see a giant aku and demongo with hundreds of drones charging we both are just like....... oh gak!

Lols Great idea.

"Straight Fething Silver" Tanith first and only

I have a reputation, Modile, a reputation as a fair, honest man who treats his soldiers well and supports them in the face of darkness. Potentially, that reputation makes me soft. It seems I understand failure and forgive it. Some, like Kowle, believe me to be a weak commissar, not prepared to take the action my rank demands. Not prepared to enforce field discipline where I see it failing. I am an Imperial commissar. I will enflame the weak, support the wavering, guide the lost. I will be all things to all men who need me. But I will also punish without hesitation the weak, the incompetent, and the treasonous.
I am a Commissar. I am empowered to deliver justice wherever I see it lacking. I am empowered to punish cowardice. I am granted the gift of total authority to judge, in the name of the Emperor, on the field of combat.
— Colonel-Commissar Ibram Gaunt, prior to the field execution of his uncle General Aldo Dercius

if you want to get a good samurai jack model, try looking at perry miniatures http://www.perry-miniatures.com/index2.html they've got samurai in everyday clothing, I painted one up as Jack for a necromunda gang, use him as a sergeant for my IG these days

fantastic army, huge amount of effort gone into it. I've also got the whole series on my computer...

Altogether now, 'LOOONG AGOO IN A DISTANT LAND, I, AKU, THE SHAPESHIFTING MASTER OF DARKNESS...

Run a whole lot of wfrp and other rpg's, play The Woods and Kill Team, gather and look mournfully at imperial guard knowing I'll never finish enough to use them on the tabletop

That Trygon is amazing though I'd say your hive tyrant head needs works, needs sharper edges, Aku was all about the sharp image.

Overall this army evokes joy in me just for being what it is and I'm glad to see someone go this far simply for on of Gendy Tardakovsky's great works.

Demongo looks great. The paint on the face looks good and crisp; he really does look like someone from a cartoon.

Generalian wrote:why does everyone love the trygon? my god anyone could do that if they wanted to!


But has anybody done it yet? Probably not. So you're a pioneer.

The Trygon looks good because it flows incredibly well. Hive Tyrant Aku has the problem of rounded, simplistic edges on a huge area of his body and then razor sharp Tyranid stuff everywhere else. Maybe you could smooth out a few of his parts?
