I would have to agree that the walker looks possibly the best. Although the size of it would bug me constantly.

As for the rest of the army, I feel that letting an unsupervised child have it would be sufficient, only a model or two to a child (to keep them away from your good models, naturally. Such sacrifices must be made, but it's best to choose the unfavoured). To be played with, to be abused, smashed, and ruined in only ways that children know how to do. And at the end of his torments, the model would either be left in the bottom of a lego box to be forgotten for all time, or the child will get into the hobby himself, and paint new models. And his paint skills will improve. And so, the model will sit there in a vast sea of very well painted models, left in his original paint scheme untouched, because of sentimental value.

Naturally, either he will fail all rolls in depression. Or suffer stockholm syndrome and roll insanely well. To know only one thing: Should he succeed, he will only ever play in casual games, never in a tournament due to his paintjob.

I wont rag on the paint jobs except to say that a black prime and painting the face probably doesn't count as a conversion in most circles >.> $400.00 for the lot is pretty off the wall though.

I've never really looked for 40k stuff on ebay before, but pawing through some of the linked auctions leads me to believe the term "Pro-painted" seems to have a really wide margin of actual expertise lol

Painting like that makes the baby jesus cry. Or at least it makes GW employees cry.

I really enjoy the painting mastery on display here. I mean, I wasn't even aware you could get the paint to go on that thick. Of course it could be that they didn't have any glue and that is what is holding them together. Hey, maybe we could get their address and mail them a big bottle of simple green and a bucket.

And if its a kid its a really really young kid. Even my 10 year old would be throwing some dry brush and washes around, and don't drowning the poor marines.
