Dragons fear nothing, if it acts up, we breath magic fire that turns them into marshmallow peeps. We leaguers only cry rivets!

I think that's a pipe Dave - although a rubber duck would have been hilarious. Conversion potential for Colonel Bethington-Smythe and his trusty familiar Carruthers Elastica Platyrhynchos
Love those minis LDD, what are they from,and where can I get some once I have the money?

You have been busy mate and looking good although the raised sections need something to make them pop IMHO but what not sure, however I am sure figure placement will achieve this.
I have been working on mine as well but early for pics however lets just say a lot of cursing was involved
But the misses said it looks great which is the highest praise

yep, that´s always a good sign!
however lets just say a lot of cursing was involved
it´s like cooking without salt if you don´t cuss!!!
and well the raised sections are now a bit bare... but i leave them as they are... you gotta stop at some level... now i need to concentrate on the upeer section...
as a matter of fact... why are human teeth worthless? i thought orks can grow their teeth back... and also they don´t stay well after a fortnight too... so why are orky teeth better? just bigger is better? hmmm....
and well there are some things that need salt for cooking... potatos...noodles...rice... meat and verggies can be cooked without ... tho... sugar and salt are both kind of catalysts for taste...

The reason humman teeth are so worthless is because 1 their so many humies, 2 they have lots of tiny teeth. True a ork can always grow new teeth, and as such, a ork never remains poor for long. Its like federal funding, it just keeps coming. reason why orks value other teeth is size, space marine teeth are worth a bit because they are hard to get, umies are easy to get, carnifex hard, necron, well.. they just call it metal and use it as a gun sight.

If the necron metal doesn't fade away, it is looted, otherwise the orks have trouble enough with the tin'eads

Long time lurker on this thread, Vik. Just wanted to pop in to say that your work looks fantastic so far. I wish I had the drive to paint more than 2 models before losing interest in a project *looks at half-painted bodies of Daleks, Dystopian Wars cruisers, Death Guard and so on*.
Also, I found this song that you might like, by a 'steampunk band' by the name of Abney park. Don't know if you've heard of them.
Just found them myself and I thought you fellows would like it.
Anyway, best stop rambling at get back to my English Literature course. Toodle-oo, chaps!
Many and varied forces in progress according to waxing & waning whims.
I may never finish an army in my life.
