Hey all,
Been lurking these forums now for a few weeks so figured it was finally time to make myself known to all.
Been playing and painting for 10 years now, but been into the fiction for a little longer (ah space hulk on PC...)
First army was a small Ultramarine force, then (ashamed to admit) and Eldar army. After my manliness recovered from that force I had Grey Knights (that are still stashed in my room somplace) and now working on my own Astartes chapter.

Big fan of the modelling work of the guys here, Doghouse and Apologist to name a few
Also a big conversion nut, can't stand anything straight from the box.

Looking forward to hearing from you all and bringing my own idea's and concepts to this fine forum.

Welcome to Dakka, mate!
Good to see another Aussie on board.
Whereabouts are you from, mate?

Can-bloody-berra.
Known for its intimidating inquisition fortress "parliament house". It is rumoured there is a prototype Mechanicus weather manipulator functioning within its depths, but since niether ordo "liberal" or "labour" can find common ground on just how to use it, its either damned hot or damned cold with next to no comfortable, median temperature in this city

Wow. Canberra actually exists?
It's sort of treated as an urban legend here, where the trolls and bollywogs and poloticans meet and eat naughty little children...

Welcome to Dakka Dakka.

I know, I didn't believe in Canberra either. I always thought it was just a fairy tale made up to scare little kids into staying in school and away from strange vans.

Welcome to dak dak is canberra like the aussie version of hanzel and gretel.

Nah, Sydney and Melbourne fought over who would be the capital. To solve it they made Austrailian Capital Teritory (A.C.T) in the middle, kind of, then made the capital in there; Canberra.


Actually, that kind of makes sense....

It was considered the most defensible place to put it when founded back in 1903, out of range of even the best naval guns of the era. Too bad the Airplane was invented shortly after.

And no, not like Hanzel and Gretel, at least they still had entertaining things to do

Welcome

Welcome!

Greetings
