Love those outrider figs - sweet bike action!


With the posible exception of the Eldar SH tanks, those are my favorite thing FW makes. So cool looking. Looking forward to seeing them with Talys’ precision paintjob.

Does it count if i've done a tiny bit already? I've got a FW Lord Zhufor model that I need to paint, but I already painted the head as a sub-assembly. I'm assuming that won't be allowed?

Other than that the only model I can think of would be the Tau I have arriving in a couple of days, because I think everything else is already partly painted. That'd mean either a Ghostkeel, and Ethereal, Crisis Suits or some Fire Warriors/Breachers.

Wow! Those look sweeeeeeeeeeeet! Looking forward to seeing them painted up. You've taken those aging veteran torsos and made them even better with your own additions. I love the Forgeworld heads on them, awesome stuff.

That looks really nice indeed. I'm really digging the dirty/oiled metal look on them.

Is that greenstuff you've modelled there on your ArchMagos? If so, that looks bloody good!

My entry is coming along nicely. Got the armor basecoated last night on the first five Breachers, meaning there isn't much basecoating left to do. I should finish these fairly quickly, then it'll be on to the other five, and when those are done, I'll pick the best ones for my final pics. For the latest WIP shot, see my P&M blog.

Well, I got hooked on the terrain building challenges, so I will start these too, I prefer building to painting and I had an idea a while back to get a ork to "wear" a nid like the indians do with bears and wolves, got my son a gretchen snaP on set and grabbed a snap on set of nids and this was the result. Will be attempting painting something for a change, well here is the runtherd of all runtherds.

I didn't think it was possible, but that is ultra-heresy.
