can hang out at the water cooler and talk zombies in a hospital

LOL.... i expect this could lead to much heart failure with some peeps... but probably gets sanctioned due to relieving a bit of stress on the obamacare issue ...(very macabre pun here... sorry...)

And if any of them say zombies don't exist I can just tell them to look at their bosses.

ATTENTION

Skalk has stated he's going to start a competition, check it out in his thread

oh, don't spoil anything for Vik!!

So rummaged through my bits box this morning looking for some shoulder pads for nafarious. I knew I had a few of theses pads sitting around because I collected over 1000 of the ravenwing sword and wing pads for my old custom chapter, yes I am nuts and YES I was building the full chapter plus all the vehicles and servants , glad that insanity is over . Well I found them, I didn't have 100 of them like I thought , I have 303 new off sprue sometimes my own insanity scares me. But then it tells me to shut up or he'll have to fix me

Group shot, 50 per bag.....I feel like a drug dealer.

Also in the shot are some Easter eggs......might get some painting done before I leave.

Edit: Easter eggs revealed....

You might remember these robots I had built from way back. Well they have now joined the scythes of the emperor. They also have gotten the black completed on the legs since this pic, but I'm n my way out the door. Depending on how long the orientation goes, miniature market is just a few miles from that location, so might swing in .

Couldn't sleep last night, new job jitters, this won't be good, hopefully I'm not sitting for the six hours of orientation watching videos, because I've got to get up and move around or I'll fall asleep.

Hope you had a great day Theo.

Models are cool.

I see no major issues with your close-up. Good job.

Good to see the ED-alikes getting some love.

Good luck being orientated.

Jeez that is a lot of shoulder pads I will great fully take off your hands >.> Those robots look pretty awesome though.

Back from orientation. Seems all the last minute about construction and rescheduling was because the group was so small, not good lying to new employees right before sending them to orientation and talking about conduct . Met 3 others going to the same hospital as I am and in the same department. We're all excited to be there, great company and its not or profit, so not like those other greedy hospitals.

Wife and kids will be home hotly, they were at a nieces bday party while I was oriented. While there I got an idea for my linear terrain piece for skalks blog. But I can't tell you about it, cause that's the first rule...."no one talks about skalks terrain competition entries" , and no WIP shots either so just stew in it .

is that a rule?....... and here is me...the noob of keeping secrets...

robots look very nice...how much of the black later on will be replaced with metals?

and i had a very close look...but due to those nice bags and everything else i didn´t see no eastereggs at all....

and ... well... i bet it will be a suspense filled first week at work...i cross my fingers for you to like it there... hope you will get yourself some new friends at work!

Vik, why would I get new friends when I have DakkaDakka
The Easter eggs were the robot arms, they were in the pics, but I updated so quick it didn't matter .

Well, another and final update until I put on tactical symbols.

why would I get new friends when I have DakkaDakka

a comment that has eaqual measurements of wisdom and lunacy in it^^

and yon robots have a mean streak of liflessness in them... i wouldn´t like to come across with them... serious hurt potential^^

Combat servitors are inherently mean, once they detect you do not belong at their facility, they go all KILL KILL KILL on you.

What is that minigun from again?

Those just make me think of ed209 from robocop.

Comply...

Got to admit it they look brilliant.

Actually it's from the ravenwing sprue, the old one, not sure if it's still current or phased out with the new stuff.
@cam. Thanks
@galorn, they were created to be enforcement servitors. Basically dreadnoughts for my servo skull army. Coincidentally they are series 209

I have to dig through my bitz boxes, but I think I have a gun from a toy that looks similar with the support bar on the bottom.

Tempest chicken almost complete, just need to do the various chin mounted weapons. Chicken legs done in black with yellow talons now.


You may not remember, but the tempest chicken was to be a delivery system for the battle bots


And in a GW universe the tempest chicken is right in line with transporting the iron man battle bot. After all if the flying bricks of the marines can function, and a rhino can fit 10 marines, then the tempest chicken can carry iron man into battle and still be a fast attack beast

I see your logic is flawless

Achem...well...the robots I am fully with you getting chickencarried...but ironman....hmmn

I'm actually surprised that Marines don't fly around like superman

You know looking at the chicken I thought what a cool transporter, then I read your text so it was Intentional all along.

I cant believe the amount of kits you have for this project, all that yellow and black must drive you mental in the end


The two robot drones are clever use of the sentinel kit nice conversion.

@graven, "what else floats in water?" This is how I learned logic
@vik, well we could call it. Drop ship
@dave, flying marines exist. They just leave no witnesses.

Iron man needs no dropship, but I just wanted to see if it would fit. It's one of hose things like when people make bigger and bigger guns, just to see if I would work. I call it pushing the envelope afterlife would we have broken the sound barrier if we didn't keep pushing?


Off to church, kids are off school tomorrow, and I have my first day of physical work tomorrow night

That's the sort of logic we like around here.

Good work on the chicken.

That picture ^ makes me wonder if planes like that come back with really clean tail fins...

I drove by an F-14 that was at an Aviation museum- it was much bigger than I realized.

@dr.h, the tails usually don't catch the bugs or geese, so they are cleaner than the rest of the jet
@dave, the jets not that big, tom cruise is just THAT small

Lol...what a great way to start a day with a joke about the Napoleon of Hollywood

And Dave...to have marines fly like spandex jerk they have jetpacks...?

Formation is lining up. Black and yellows are done. Now need to do metals, sensors, and crew. Also missing one door. Think I'll build something to put there, maybe a sensor suite.

Hah hey every body Vik messed up his post!

Oh and Theo those look pretty awesome.
