<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Blood slaughterer: has arrived!"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Blood slaughterer: has arrived!
Ordered on the 24th and it turned up thismorning.
It actually turned up at just the right time, since im now housebound for a week

Havent been feeling well for the last few days, so saw the site doc, and found out i had swine flu lol, so its not all fun
So, just got the slaughterer turn up, cant leave the house for a week, seems like a project to me

However, due to feeling like complete gak, dont expect me to work my ass off on this

all ive done tonight is given it a quick wash with warm-ish water for the mould release.
Ill clean up the parts then wash it again tomorrow then i can start

But, since its just mean to start a P&M thread without pics:









I apologise for the 1st few pics.
Even with the cam on macro its still picking up fuzz (actually had it sat on the desk, so it wouldnt move)
I think i need to play about with the cam, try and get some better pics.


Edit: Quality wasnt too bad.
Minimal flash and no bent parts.
All parts present.
There are however a few poor parts, like a huge scratch on the carapace (will be GS'd)
There are also a few lost details around the cables and bodies.
Nothing that cant be fixed though ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1218964.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1218964.page GMT Blood slaughterer: has arrived! http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1218984.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1218984.page GMT Re:Blood slaughterer: has arrived! My Elysian shipment only took a week, and I'm across the puddle from you. On the far side. Maybe Forgeworld is impro-*Snicker*-damn. Still can't say it with a straight face


Anyway, can't wait to see this thing. And good luck on the Swine flu. Try not to die and all that ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1218987.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1218987.page GMT Blood slaughterer: has arrived!
Ill be running a 1mm brass ros through each talon to give them a bit of strength.
Ill also remove the bottom 2-3mm of each talon so i can base it (and make it more stable and less fragile)

Dont even know the rules for em lol, impulse buying.
I saw it, i wanted it.




Metalli: I ordered on xmas eve though mate lol, im still in shock it arrived before feb
All in all, i think they have actually improved a bit........ not much, but a bit.

Meh, atleast ill go down with a virus related to my beloved bacon if i do lol.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1218997.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1218997.page GMT Blood slaughterer: has arrived!
But either way, the Slaughterer is gorgeous.
And yeah, their shipping is improving. They've kicked Royal Mail to the curb and are using courier services in place.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1219006.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1219006.page GMT Blood slaughterer: has arrived! FW... seeing as I just got my order placed for the war mammoth placed on the 27th it shouldnt be too long Looking forward to this ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1219007.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1219007.page GMT Blood slaughterer: has arrived! FW to check lol.

May keep it as battle damage though and add some more.
Maybe the fethers wont strike again? (doubt it)

After looking at this model i love it even more, and im tempted to get a small unit of 5 together.
(2 standard, 2 impalers, 1 converted with a big gun )
If i like the looks of it i may think about the scorpion next

GW editor used to have an allied beasts and warrior army a while back he published in WD.
It was huge, and had 2 war mammoths, ill have to dif out pics since the guy really went to town converting them. (cutting and re-posing limbs lol)


With any luck mate, ill have it cleaned up, undercoated and possibly a few base colours by tomorrow night.
I plan on making sure i get it undercoated though.

I know EXACTLY the army you're talking about.
I saw it in one of my White Dwarfs just the other day, I'm looking for it again.

I found an original issue, 1985 Star Wars: Return of the Jedi Luke Skywalker on Endor figure, still carded the other month.

Promptly sold it for nearly $300 and turned around to buy an Infinity rulebook ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1219424.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1219424.page GMT Blood slaughterer: has arrived! ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1219429.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1219429.page GMT Blood slaughterer: has arrived!

May start stock-piling my armies though, rather than selling to start new ones.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1219436.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/271759/1219436.page GMT
