I believe you can buy them from Creature Caster regardless of whether you were in the Kickstarter campaign.

Be warned- Kickstarters can be highly addictive lol. I've backed 12 projects thus far, and I've only been using Kickstarter a matter of months lol. As if I didn't have enough to do already!
I'm sure if you drop Creature Caster a message on Kickstarter or Facebook he might be able to hook you up with monster awesomeness.

Best get building some scenery for him to hide behind lol. Which one are you looking at getting? I assume since you're a Slaaneshi/Khorne worshipper you'll be after the Pincer, Spider or Warrior daemons.

That being said, Khorne would probably be a little miffed that one of his GREATER DAEMONS hides like a pansy behind cover lol.

So got a little done today- primed up some of my brothers chaos marines plus, after the re-release of Space Hulk I revisited the terminators.
Here's a not quite polished off BA terminator..

Looks pretty solid to me! The red looks pretty rich and I like the other colors you've got going with it.

Cheers- I used the guide they've got in the White Dwarf this week. Say what you will about GW, their guides are pretty solid and do generate good results.

So I had a friend from college over for a game of 7th ed 40K. By the time we got set up, it was getting too late to start. So out came Space Hulk (3rd Ed). Only managed to get the 1st mission in but my god it was bloody!
Brother Deino and Sgt Lorenzo were on fire with their shooting. At least a dozen stealers between them for the most part of the game. Sadly their luck ran out on overwatch, and both of them were slain in close quarters.
Brother Zael managed to leg it to the Escape Pod control room after a very close encounter with a stealer chasing him down the corridor. The beast ran out of AP just as he reached Zael and I was able to torch the place.
Blood Angels victory!
Faith is thy shield!

Thanks! I've finished off the cabling on his head and power fist arm as well as the scope on the storm bolter. Followed it up with 'Ardcoat but I'm not sure if I should throw some Lahmian Medium to get rid of the glossy effect left by it.
Also, I've started up a new blog for my joint Beastmen project for WHFB. I've decided to keep the Sci-Fi and Fantasy stuff separate.

New day, new update,
Spent about an hour or so this evening painting up more Space Hulk terminators. Probably the most fun I've had painting Blood Angels to be honest

Bits and pieces today really. Primed up my resin Wracks and got one of them started up. Loved the red flayed look of them in the WDW (#34) this weekend so I thought i'd give it a go.
C&C welcome.
Plus, did a bit more with the Space Hulk terminators and had a go with Brother Zael today.

Both look nice Terminator really pops between the lighter spot colors and the well done red. What is your secret on the red? Or did you already tell us and I'm just oblivious?
I like that scheme for the Wracks too. I really want some of the new Dark Eldar but I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stop myself once I started.

Yeah I did- GW's paint guide in WDW #33, Though I went for Drybrushing with a large drybrush. Plenty of raised details to go at on these. I'm trying to smash my way through the obscene amount of painting I've got to go at. Base Mephiston Red Shade Agrax Earthshade Layer Mephiston Red Layer Wazdakka Red Layer Fire Dragon Bright

Practice makes perfect I guess. I think most of it is trying to gauge how much paint to leave on the brush which for me, was a huge pain in the butt at first. Gotta say, the free hand for the besagew was quite nerve-wracking! Did not wanna have to go back and do that again lol
