Greetings. I am a long time lurker and first time poster. I found this sight many, many moons ago, joined, but never really posted. I am an annual poster at The Bolter and Chainsword (by annual I mean 68 posts since 2006). Some of that time I have been away from my computer in far away lands.
I have been playing Warhammer 40K since 2000 and have quite the collection. I play Dark Angels (13000+ pts) and Iron Warriors (5000+ pts). My sons plays Orks (5000+ pts) and Tau (3000+ pts). I recently finished the Lion's Roar, my Dark Angels Thunderhawk Gunship. I purchased it in May 2011 after one of my 6-month trips and finally finished it on 21 Sep 11. It was a bear to put together and paint. She looks good, a little too new, but the servitors are very busy working in my battle bunker. I am also finishing off my Chaos Warhound Titan Sulphurius. I have had him a since 2010 (bought him after another one of my trips). I have had quite a few issues with him, several pieces broke forcing me to glue him in a very static position. I have also lost several toes, so I am currently building a base for him. He should be done soon.
I have been a gamer a long, long time, my first memories are of the old D&D space game (don't remember the name) it was in 2nd Grade in the late 70s. I started Battletech in 1986, but stopped in 2000. I have a company left, but haven't played in a while. Here are some photos:

Gutsnagga, Not rich by any means. I have just spent time away from home in far away lands doing bad things to bad people and earned much money from it. All of my travel money feeds my hobby. Unfortunately, my travels have been curtailed, for at least a few years, so no Chaos Reaver Titan for now. :(

Thank you. Both took a long time, and a lot of patience. I am currently basing my Warhound along with the Iron Warriors.
