Rampaging Carnifex
|
I figured that I could fit in some more models today (yesterday, whatever, it's midnight!). I painted 2 of my mycetic spores, one hive tyrant, a carnifex and some rippers. All basecoat/second coats but they're starting to look pretty good!
Planning a 1500 point game this weekend.

The problem with the 'vote with your dollar' response is that it doesn't take into account why we're not buying the product. I want to enjoy 40k enough to buy back in. It was my introduction to traditional games, and there was a time when I enjoyed it very much. I want to buy 40k, but Gamesworkshop is doing their very best to push me away, and simply not buying their product won't tell them that. |

Proceeding with my Revell Battlestar Galactica - so many bulkheads to attend to before the hard work is done. I've also added an easter egg in the form of a 1/4105 scale scratch built viper MK.II, which is absolutely tiny.
Also, looking forward to Moebius models releasing the classic Galactica next year, hopefully with additional decals for a Pegasus option.

I have almost finished making one of these:
Alas it was made from a lot of left over bits and I am trying to find a way to make side sponsons. So far I've got IG lascannons but they seem far too small. And that doesn't even cover the issue of mounting them. :(

If you click here you can see my old school army. That is an original Land Raider Spartan, but I lack the original land raider sponsons. If anyone has suggestions for what to replace them with (or you know, miraculously has spare old sponsons) I'm all ears.

That is the original Land Raider Spartan I believe. One of the WD issues came with instructions for how to make the modifications to the standard kit, using plasticard.
The 2 terminators sat on the top make it immediately 100 times better than the ludicrously expensive Forge World model

Not only with plasticard, but also a Rhino kit. If you look at the hull, it's the back of an upsidedown Rhino hull.

Thank you! I'm a huge fan of the setting but not so much the new stuff (and the new FW Spartan is a) horribly pricey and b) horribly powerful). Alas finding parts for such a thing is horribly hard- they're just not out there. I'm considering just buying current LR sponsons off ebay but I'm not sure how they'd look, given the vintage appearance of the rest of the army. Next up is the Dev squad, then the rest of the Assault squad to bring me up to 50 ready marines. Half a battle company should suffice for a bit. Annoyingly my marines seem to have completely missed the grav weapons memo

I am busily ogling both the Mars Attacks kickstarter, and reaper bones 2. Can't decide if I want to feed my pledge for one to the other (it alternates) or if I want to try to "have it all" and keep both. Maybe painting a space marine sgt in between bouts of indecision.

Today I plan on wrapping up my paintinging of my last remaining Roman auxiliary troops for Hail Caesre, I recived the box last Friday and have had very good time painting/ assembeling them. Beside that I just decided to not buy anything new at all until the workload awating me on my desk is complet. And this may prove to be wise, since I have about four battalions lelft of Bretonnians to assembel/ prime/paint/ base
