I think a lot of chaplain skull helmets look a bit goofy. This guy on the other hand is beautiful. I play Space Wolves so idk should I just bring some kind of ally detachment of my best frienemies just to run him?



I'm also a huge fan of missle spam Broadsides. They have plenty of dakka. This mek approves

I picked up Death Masque, partially because I lost my mini rulebook, but mainly because I really love both armies. Probably never going to run the harlequins, just wanted to paint them, and I have no plans of expanding the deathwatch. Probably going to use them for kill team, or might look at the inquisition rules for running a squad of them.

I quite enjoy some of the Tyranids models and I'm considering using some as Chaos Spawn

Sisters of Battle and Grey knights. I hope plastic sisters don't come too soon, because if they they come out I'll have to get at least one last chance to buy sqad of the expensive metal ones' finally.

There are lots of AoS models I think look great, but I'm not gonna use the,

Building a Tyranid army before starting my Chaos army was the best thing I could've done. Those kits are a goldmine of conversion opportunities.

I bought that Chaplain too, even though I had no desire to play Dark Angels. It's one of my favourite ever miniatures. Since buying it, I realised I had all the DAs from the Dark Vengeance box and decided I might as well paint them up too. I haven't finished my chaplain yet - I'm taking a lot more care with it than most of my minis.

I bought the new Verminlord for the same reason - it's just fantastic. I have never played fantasy/AOS at all. I will use it as a 'counts as' Keeper of Secrets though, so it will see the tabletop.

I usually find an excuse to use a mini I've painted, even if I don't have the army. Imagination is a useful thing - e.g you could use a Lord of Change in an imperial army by saying the demon is in disguise as an inquisitor. An imperial space marine could be fighting alongside Khorne because they are too mad to notice his presence and he needs to fit in in order to escape the planet. So many possibilities!

TAU KX139 TA’UNAR SUPREMACY ARMOUR WITH FUSION ERADICATOR & TRI-AXIS ION CANNON - that model just screams massive destruction. Reminds me of the MAC III from Robotech.

And EMPEROR'S CHILDREN LEGION KAKOPHONI - just love the blasters.

I've got 2 shelves dedicated to models from all armies that I simply got to paint.
No use to me atall, but I couldn't resist buying the models.

The eldar revenant titan being one of those (my only eldar model)

My issue is no self control though lol.

Yeah, I've considered possibly using them to make Screamers, Flamers, Daemon Princes, and possibly Possessed.

It may be hard to get it to work, but it would look better in my opinion

The ork bikers.

I love my sisters and am looking forward to painting up my new Celestine. I'm not much of a player as I don't have anyone to play with right now so I just paint to paint but I did pick up the Tyranid Maleceptor to get myself back into painting after 10ish years and I have to say, as a non-fan of the 'nids, their bigger models are pretty neat. I really want to get my hands on the Lord of Change and when/if the sisters come out in plastic...I'll be getting those as well

Oh..and this...

I am a chaos player but all the Inquisition models just look fantastic: GK and Deathwatch armour, Inquisition henchmen, assassins, even some of the SoB line have caught my eye.

So now it is only a matter of corrupting my way through their model lines until I have a heretical Inquisition detachment.

Pretty much the entire AdMech range, but I like the Kastellan Robots in particular. I'd buy like 10 of them if I had any excuse at all to use them in one of my armies, but they don't fit anywhere :-(

I bought a Solitaire and Death Jester. I don't play harlies. Love the models though.

Belisarius Cawl.

Ork Deff Dread
Corvus Blackstar
Cadian Kasrkins from the first 13th Black Crusade world wide event

Hmm, that's a tough one. I guess I kinda like how necron scarabs look.

I haven't CONSIDERED buying models for armies I don't play. Nearly half my collection is stuff I have never used in-game.

I pretty much only use my AoS Chaos, my 30k Raven Guard and my Aelvs when playing games, with the occasional 40k Space Marines (my old Tau Marines ) and soon will be able to play 30k/40k Thousand Sons.

Adeptus Mechanicus Kastelan Robots.
Harking back to the old flowchart robots from RT/2nd, these just epitomise the old days for me.

I'm surprised that the Emperor's Champion model hasn't been mentioned yet.

https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Black-Templars-The-Emperor-s-Champion

He is the very essence of righteous fury.

And I'm a Night Lords player!

I've always liked the look of battlesuits, at least the smaller ones, and can see myself picking on or two up at some point. Ditto with drones, though in that case I got a lucky ebay lot and now have some.

I also really wish marines could have the Repressor that the Sisters get, because of course the Sister's APC has more firepower (haha) and firing slots than the marine one. My infantry are "The Emperor's Finest", and my motor pool is the Emperor's 'meh, it's alright'.

I like the GhostKeel model and those Assassin Bladed Killbots from Admech.

the Goliath truck and even the Taurox are gorgeous in person.

Ah forgot to mention the Skaven Assassin i bought strictly because of how awesome he is, ended up painting him and using him to represent a Spell Familiar.

I don't plan to play horder armies in the near future but will definitely be buying and painting Ork Kommandos.

Why?

Sweet models and the fluff is just too good to pass.

Sneaky Orks? Hell yes!

This is generally how an army starts for me. My orks started with the plastic battle wagon coming out. My guard started with the Forgeworld Mars alpha leman runs.

New Kharn model looks sick. I am not a good enough painter to justify buying models for armies I dont play...

It used to be some Tau (The Eight) that were at the top of my list. Got to model and paint (partially) them and didn't really look at anything else since... keeping "on tasks" as it were...

...until the latest Tzeentch and Thousand Sons releases.
Kairos Fateweaver was at the top of my list, closely followed by Magnus and each of the new units...but they will, too, may have to wait.

The rumoured members of the next Triumvirate have piqued my interests.

Termagants.

They're adorable.

Mine was the new plastic Ulrik the Slayer, and Belisarius Cawl is beastly (he'll look great in Dark Mechanicus scheme). But now... That Gulliman and Cypher look sooooo goooooood.

I quite like the Hive Tyrant model. A lot of the Tyranid MCs are pretty cool looking actually, but the tyrant just has a special place for me.
