Hey everyone, new guy here.
I've been a fan of 40k for many years, but only recently, since I moved to the UK have I been able to get my first minis and start wargamming.
my name is Vasco, though here i go by the name Hector Cervantes, a character I created (I'll post a short story I wrote about him soon), captain of the Crimson Fists. You've guessed it, my favourite chapter.
Anyway, it's a pleasure to be here among you, ladies and gentlemen.

For the emperor!

Welcome to DakkaDakka

Isn't that name Hector Cervantes from Soul Calibre game series?
Ah your a Space Marine player I'm a Chaos, Necron, Dark Eldar & soon to be Daemon (Khorne) player myself just building up my armies and just seeing how things go

Hope you enjoy your time here

Hi there, thanks for the welcome.
If its from soul calibur, it's a coincidence, I came up with that name because most crimson fists have Hispanic names, so I thought it would be nice to use the last name of the author of Don Quixote, Cervantes and Hector just because it sounds cool
Im still learning my way through wargamming, for now Im more focused on modelling and painting.

Aha alrighty just Cervantes was my favourite character from it lol

Aha fair dues there. Its easy to learn the modelling and painting wise, as started doing my own conversion models before attempting to create a custom later in year Not seen many Crimson Fists to be fully honest, would love to see some of your work sometime

When it comes to learning the rules of 40k, that is biggest pain so be ready lol

Yeh, I'm starting to notice that
Will post some pics of my work this week

Ah nice Got a lot of images in my gallery of models I've done so if ever want to see them they are there planning on doing some Vlogs too via my YT page of Blogs I've done here

Will do
