wow. your collection is amazing.

Haha that's hilarious! Yes I am a bit "too much" into the hobby. That's what my wife says anyway. But thank you lol. I paint pretty fast but my problem is jumping between projects over and over. This week I plan to paint 7 destroyers, 3 heavy destroyers, 2 scarab swarms, and a tomb spider. And if I have time I will finish this menoth revenger I have sitting here! But I am waiting for some paint in the mail before I can begin so I guess I will work on some land speeders.

You like the table?

Thanks. :-)

Fair play sticking with getting those bikes done. I'm only on my first bike and I already want to scrap them. I've got another 10 or so to do plus two plastic attacks bikes and three of the older plastic/metal ones that I need to refurbish.

Don't worry about being too far in, its too late to save ourselves now. Might as well just enjoy the ride. Personally my ride is going to take me through twenty of so assault marines (being stripped), three tac squads ready to go in for a bath, around forty terminators that need saving and six dreads (three metal, three plastic). And all of that before I get to my new stuff which is still on the sprues.

Wow what chapter you doing?

Oh and on a side note I will be adding imperial fist transfers very soon so we know their chapter!

I was originally doing a templar successor, then switched it to an IF successor but now I just don't have a clue tbh. I'm taking some of my marines out and creating a Doom Legion army at the moment. If it goes well then I may turn them all to the Legion otherwise I have to think of something else for the rest of them

That Land Raider is helping to influence me starting an Imperial Fist army....

Haha thanks! It was actually a chaos raider I had sitting around unassembled and since I was working in some fists I was like I am putting in the collection. Added some loyalist parts instead of spikes and chaos stars and bam there it is!

Good news! My paint has arrived and I have begun the next chunk or necrons.

I was using Gw tentacle pink but in their infinite wisdom they stopped it's production so off bartertown I secured 2 basically full bottle. Way more than needed. But it showed up and i will post pics soon.

Fists looking good, glad to see you didn't give up on them, so many people wimp out when they worked out that yellow is a ***********#@! to paint Took me 7 attempts to get it right lol. Sir I salute you.

Thanks man! I am aiming for an 1850 ish list for them but I am working on my necrons now to be don't for the 5th. I will be finished in a day or 2. Pics soon to come!

Land raiders lookin brill!

Table looks good. That the oul pva, grit, gravel and spray technique? Looks better than how mine turned out in the past anyhow! So much better playing games on a decent board with painted models.

Gotta hate it when gw discontinue paints. so many good ones just gone.

Lovin the pic Tylerkabana!

thanks for he comments. Its plywood and inso foam. Pva coat, then pva coar sprinkle glue. Prime black, dry brush dark gray then light gray on top. boom done

Hello! After writing a huge post about 3 minutes ago, my computer crapped out on me and now I am starting again... Here we go.


Tonight i primed the necron lot I am working on. Also i finished the bases for all of them. Here is a pic of the bases all done. Now before anyone says they look plain, i want them too. I call it "alien desert". Barren waste land. Its like the color of the moons sand. Its a simple 3 color drybrush over sand. But anyways its finished for now. Tomorrow i will start the actual models.

Now you as I am sure by now noticed that my necrons are pink. Interesteing story as to how that occured. When the game Dawn of War necron expansion came out for the PC both me and my friend marty bought it. We decided one afternoon we would get online at a certain time to play. I decided to use the "army painter" in the game and do something funny, make a crazy looking army. So when the game began my friend realized he was playing against PINK necrons. He felt extra dumb after i beat the crap outta him lol. After the game we were talking and he said they looked like peptobismal on the field. Hence the name NECRO-BISMAL as my army is called locally lol. I told him if i ever did necrons they would be pink... here they are.

Just one of my random projects. I am working to finished them in 2 days as i need they done before the 5th which is a local tourney i will be battling them in.

Here is a pic of the lot i am working on, some of the finished bases, and 1 destroyer i painted before just to show you what they will all look like. I also need to come up with some "necrony" way to designate squads as i am useing 3 5 man destroyer units and they get close and i cant tell whose who. Any idea's anyone?

Here is the pics.

Eh, those pics are a bit small....

HAHAHA that made me laugh!

better? These are not good pics anyways, just quick ones. Right now I am done with the first step of these guys (adding some bolt gun) which is not shown in these pics, but maybe tomorrow i can add some with that step done.

that's better! I can see them fully in all their glory

I finished all of these models tonight. In about 4 hours of work. Not my best job just good enough for table top. I did it all here in PITTSBURGH watching my home team the steelers represent! Off to the super bowl. AGAIN!

Ok so here they are. These are pics of my entire painted force of necrons which i just finished finally this week. Sorry as usual for the poor pics. I need some pic advice if anyone has any!

Alot of these i have already been working on, but as stated before i finished 3 heavy destroyers, 1 tomb spider, 2 scarab swarms, and 7 destroyers sunday. here we go.

Not that I care too much but I haven't gotten a single response with the necrons. Np. I will continue to post stuff. But if you have any input positive or negative please throw it out. Well since I am don't with the necrons. All 2804 points. I am back to some fists!

I am back to working on a lysander a pedro and 10 stern guard. Fist coat of yellow is done and first wash. Now to the layering. Check back soon for pics!

Meh! Necrons in general just don't do it for me I'm afraid. I'm a marine man through and through (don't know if you guessed from my sig, lol.)

Sounds good on the IF front though I look forward to it.

I think your necrons could use some more depth, and maybe some more colours.

My first marines were Imp Fists. They have a special place in my heart. You do them justice. My only recommendation is to drill out those barrels and perhaps do another wash and edge highlight.

Also... somehow this seems strangely relevant: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LH5ay10RTGY

Although funny i disagree with the relevance but thanks for the input anyways!

I really like the Necrons. Pink is a nice change from just plain metal like most I've seen. And I like pink, so that probably helps. Nice collection and nice work. Looking forward to see what you're working on right now, when it's finished of course.

Thanks bunny! I am currently back on a squad of imperial fists and I am half way done with their armor yellow! Pics soon to come!

Ok so as i said before I am in a tournamen tomorrow! I am actually playing my Dark Angels Deathwing army but since the FAQ made them WAY BETTER I decided I needed a new belial with a Thunderhammer stormshield. So here is my Lysander for my fists, but tomorrow he is my Counts as for belial. What do you all think?

So as far as the tournament I tool second outta 29 and won 75 dollars store credit! WooT! But now thats over back to reality. lol I am about 45 percent done with the stern guard/pedro cantor and more pics to come soon.
