G'Day name's Mick from Australia. I've been out of the hobby for 20 years but a workplace injury means that I can't lift weights, work or race my race car for the nect couple of months so I'm looking for something else to do.

I used to paint for cash 20 years ago while in school so led me back to assembling some Space Wolves and things are out of hand in typical style by me, all or nothing.

I've choosen to build a great company, and being tight I've purchased bulk and alot of 2nd hand stuff.

Not sure if I will play but looking forward to paintings

I'm doing Ragnar Blackmane's great company but will have a Logan Grimnar there for a Command in the big battles.

But so far I've purchased 30 preassembled space wolves that have an iron priest and Ulriik in amongst them (and a Njal) 5 of those are assault terminators.

I got another iron priest and i have 2 rune preists and one rune priest in terminator armour.

1 brand new drop pod, 100 ragnar shoulder pads 40 grey hunter shoulders and a lukas the trickster

2 squads preassembled sky claws.

Then I got a bulk order from discount games in the states-
40 space wolves, 2 devestator squads, 1 wolf lord, 1 thunder wolf cavalry pack, 2 rhinos, one landraider, one razorback, another drop pod, an adapetus astares pack (2 storm talon, one storm raven), a fenrisian wolf pack (haven't got one yet).

I also got the space wolves chapter pack from forge world and a storm eagle and another set of rhino doors. Also got enough spare space wolves terminator bits to make up another two 5 man terminator squads.

Alspo go 2nd hand unpainted dreadnought and Bjorn and I'm done for now.

I'm trying to make a great Company that is Ragnar's in quick and fast- perfect for planatary assault hence the pods and air power.

Looking at a couple of other suprise models too to make it unique, open to suggestions from people too.

As to having the storm raven and storm talon my local GW shop said- They are Space wolves they take what they want, rules don't apply to them.

Ok out of control just picked up brand new land speeder combat squad space wolves pack, land raider rhino and razorback to the list for $250 the lot brand new.

Now just searching for some rare items....

Well, that should keep you busy.

I look forward to seeing your Great Company progress in the painting and modeling section. (Even if they are Space Wolves .)

Welcome to Dakka, Justincase, and welcome back to the hobby.

Cheers mate, going to start on the 2nd hand pieces first and slowly try to get my groove back- will look at getting the airbrush out of storage soon too and look at firing a few tests out with- been two years since I used it in anger last.

DON'T CALL IT A COMEBACK, HE'S BEEN HERE FOR YEARS!

Sorry, I can't help but here that in my head when I see these types of Intro threads!

My thoughts exactly.

Welcome to Dakka!

Welcome!

Cheers guys I'm hot on the trail of the rare stuff over the wekend and going up to my storage shed to pick up my airbrush.

I can't lift weights or do my job (rigger) or build my race car so needed another outlet.

Find out on friday next week if they are operating on my arm , if so might be a long time off work but at least I'm left handed!

Hey man welcome back to the hobby, and welcome to Dakka Dakka!!

Cheers I'm lucky just a torn tendon should be fine with either surgery or plasma injections , got a little model gripper with a magnifine glass should be good for detail work if i have one arm!

also picked up a dreadnought drop pod last few days.

How the op go?

Hmmm, as a dark angel I'm none too happy about you mr lah-di-dah army, (The Sons Of Caliban forever!!!) but welcome back to the hobby

Welcome!

Well your catching up your model count fast!

Greetings! Welcome to Dakka Dakka!
