@sarpedon tbh the sniper scouts are usuaLly pants and end up soaking up shooting, the scouts in the storm and the scout bikers definately work well. They work best when you have first turn and can use there scout move to alpha strike fire support units/vehicles off the table, outflanking also helps disrupt your opponent. If I wasn't trying to avoid duplicating units (to avoid boredom) I would swap out the sniper scouts and bikers for another shotgun scout/speeder combo.

I love the Soild crispness of the Yellow ,but one thing i do really like is that the line with the black is really solid.
Often they are smudged but yours is really clean.

I think it is from the new Blood Angel plastics...but now I'm not sure!

Can someone confirm?

And, more OT here - these are some fantastic looking miniatures, both in terms of the build AND the paint-job - well done!

That yellow was perfect. How did you get the paint to go on so smooth and all the same tone/shade?

Just by using several thin layers making sure each layer is ok before moving onto the next one, then using a thin ink glaze at the end to tie all the shades together.

@everybody cheers for the kind words hopefully should be some scout bikers here by the end of next weekish

Behold this thread arises from the grave! MwuHaHaHaHa!!! So i've been dumb enough to sign up to a tournament that requires me to have a painted army on the 4th of Feb so I pulled my finger out and got this far.





There are more photos on my blog (links in my sig). The razorback will get finishing touches, transfers and based when I finish the predator i'm about to start work on, so hopefully there will be many updates forthcoming.
