Im sorry I don't have a lot of time to talk, but this guy is my Typhus and below are 180 zombies that I had paint commissioned. If I was anywhere near a painting competition, I would definitely enter this guy. </div>

Is it possible to make everyone happy? Well lets give it the ol college try, shall we. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The picture above, is 180 zombies from the Mantic- Kings of War game. A very popular substitute for the zombies in the Chaos Space Marine Codex. Why did I buy 180 of them? First off, let me say that I didnt buy them, but accepted as partial payment for the last commission that I did. It was under my direction that my friend/client pick them up while at Adepticon. I have no intention of painting this many zombies and eventually all of them will be traded off as I get tired of playing the undead horde. So what does this remotely have to do with making everyone happy? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am looking at this from a few different viewpoints. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1) The core is pretty fluffy, even with the blood thirster in place of the great unclean one. Hell I was really stretching it with my Blood thirster proxy. According to my opponent that is........and he is right, due to the size of the model. But to my defence, its Khorne daemon with wings all the way!!! The only reason there are 180 zombies instead of 210 is because of budget adn we originally thought there were 35 in a box in place of 30. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Fluff bunnies happy?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2)Its seems pretty nasty, even thought the movement trays that I have place them so close together that 18 fit underneath a flamer template. I have played one game against a 2 helldrake list and he killed all but 7 zombies. In fact here is the list that I played. I know now that the points are not correct but its what I played in a 2k game. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
typhus 230</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
abaddon 265</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
7 slaanesh terminators with combi weapon and icon of feel no pain for unit 320</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
6 x 30 plague zombies 780</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
ALLIED WITH </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Blood THirster with Portaglyph 300</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
10 Plague Bearers (pictured below and just painted christmas present.) 100</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I won my game. On list alone because I have lost well over 75% of my games in 6th edition. I suck the big one this edition. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Competitive DIck measurers happy?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3)Abaddon and 5 combi plasmas and 2 combi meltas is the only shooting in this army.......and me likey! I suppose shooting is king in this game, but I want to play a defensive army. Defensive army? Yes, an army that will hopefully soak up the fire power that you have. How did I deal with the two helldrakes from Monday nights game? I ignored them and let my opponent have a shit load of fun sucking units off the board. When I play 40k lately, I really want an experience that is different than the 1000 games that I have already played. I want to play against armies that are different than my usual blah blah blah. I want the terrain to be different than the nova format that Battle for Salvation keeps shoving down my throat. 5 of my last 6 games has had the terrain set up the exact same way. meh and boring when I dont need to be the supreme ruler of 40k and tournament fairness. Cool for what it is, but I have moved on. I really want to play some narrative based events or somehting like that. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So who is happy here? Well, hopefully, myself and my opponent. This list, or its core, is fluffy with some unusual quirks to it, and is somethng that will allow me to at least compete against most armies. </div>

Hey guys,<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9-RPumHlKvk/UOoEInlw4xI/AAAAAAAACgk/tj2f6slHVd8/s1600/002.JPG" imageanchor="1"></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have had some kind nudges/ pressure from friends to update my blog with what's been going on. The paragraph below is a little bit of a pretense as I get ready and to try and tell you why I still play my chaos army as a space wolves, "counts as" army.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have bought the chaos codex and like it well enough , but there were some specifics to my situation that have compelled me to put it down. I played several games at the beginning of sixth with the chaos codex and lost nearly all of them. Believe it or not, that had minimal influence on me deciding to not play the chaos codex. I consider it to be adequate for play in a competitive environment, with enough practice any codex may be. The real main factor, was the work associated with both a new codex,and a new edition of the main rules. As a father of two very young children, I have precious little time for self involved projects. Learning the new rules of the system, coupled with the rules of the codex, and then becoming familiar with how to use the force that the codex represents, in said system, became to much of a time sink and threatened to take away the game all together. And this is, of course, before we even factor in the time it would take to get everything modeled correctly for tournament or wysiwig play. I was very disheartened with the dawn of this new edition.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, I am still playing my chaos as space wolves because for the past 2 years I had slowly been painting, playing and building the force that would represent that codex. I know how to play it and in order for me to fall in line with the new chaos codex, I would have to disassemble and rearrange so many models to get the build that I want. This is what disheartened me! Not the new possibilities, but the workload associated with it. I began to feel like butter scrapped over to much bread. It has happened to me several times, so screw it. In the past I have bucked up and ate the shit sandwich that GW served me with each new codex or edition. Not this time, this time I am going to stay where I am and finish the damn thing, SPACE WOLF style. LOL or should I say CHAOS style because those are the models I am using. Anyway, who really cares becuase as I pointed it out to a friend, this is my art,(army,) and that is my game, (codex.) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have every intention to use my, soon to be, one and only army to represent each and every power armour codex. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ok, down to the models pictured below. I was writin over a previoius "for sale post," and while I have several cool new models to show, I have decided to show these one last time. I gave this army away not to long ago to someone who will hopefully use it to conquer many social circles. I originally tried to sell it on my local game club forums and was quickly contacted by someone who was a bit down on his luck. Ok, not just a bit, life had beat him up pretty bad over the past few years. He is a gracious and giving person who would have bought it, but I felt it in my heart that it would be better served as a gift. Good luck Paul, and I will kill you if you paint over it! ;) </div>

I kept the Command squad that isnt pictured in order to try and get some of my money back. I would really love to see them go and live with my old Imperial Fists army down in the StL. HINT HINT.... Jesse. By the way, I have sslowly started another commission to add on to my old Imperial Fist Army. </div>

That is a edited quote from some rap song that I knew in my youth. While I have had the last two months off of work, with one more to go, I have been doing quite a bit of painting. The two boys below are going to supplement my old Imperial Fist army that now haunts the state of Missouri. There are many more plans for the expansion of the Imperial Fists' !st company! </div>

Now on to my personal 40k endeavours... Before I get to bogged down with another apartment renovation and commission, I have been trying to finish as much of my chaos army as possible. The guys below are used as my thunderwolf cavalry when I decide to play the Space Wolves codex. One of the greatest thing about my army is that I can use it for several different codex's. Whenever I grow tired of playing one book, I pull the ol swich-a-roo and bamm, instant pointless criticism from bithces who waste their money on more than one power armour army. That being said, I have more than one power armour army and I wish that I had rolled those Deathwing Terminators of mine into this chaos army. Tsk, Tsk... shame on me, deep deep shame! ;) </div>

I have never shied, away from airing my humiliating laundry in public. I have not won a single game of 6th edition 40K. I am now a little over 10 games in with some fun surely had, but no victories. Im playing again tonight so another chance for glory, and defeat!</div>

This past weekend I got to paly a big apocalypse battle with my friends, Brother Captain James and fritz 40K. I had promised to bat rep the battle. i did try but in the end it was basically me jsut talking shit with Fritz. Again and agian I had to let him know that I was his better in every way. I love having a fun smack talk fest with my select friends. Anyway, all my clips just ended up being us talking smack, and laughing along the way. I did end up having Abaddon beating down his grand master like the bitch Fritz was, (is!) LOL </div>

I ended up getting my hands on a some bits from the Maulerfiend kit and i really fell in love with the lasher tendrils. I would have kept piling them on but I began to worry about storage. I ran him as a maulerfiend in the apoc game. I have plans for some intense freehand on the left and right blank spaces next to his head.</div>

During the end of the apocalypse battle, I started wheeling and dealing with lil wil from the blog: the unholy harbinger. he bought a box of the new raptors on a whim and wanted to trade. I was more than happy to oblige. I gave up some noise marines that i didnt use. In a earlier post, I mention my disappointment in the lack of new kits. After getting my hands on the new raptor kit, I feel even more dissapointed. This kit is good adn it points to how the cultist kits should have gone. This is a noise marine/ slaanesh guy that I converted from the kit. 5 of the ten shoulder pads look as though they have speakers mounted in them, while there are random speakers mounted on knees in different poses. I know the legs are supposed to represent pre or post flight but I made this guy look as though he is jumping down from something. I really like how this slayer of worlds turned out.</div>

This here is my new entry into the Spikey Bits chaos contest that Rob has going on over on his blog. The more that I thought about it, the counts as Kharn model below isnt that big of a deal when considering the conversion. Its clean and done well enough but there is no real skill in the conversion. I dont know if any one recognizes this fig from before, but I originally built the basis of the model to serve as a lash sorcerer. Holy crap, way back in 7/27/09 it said?</div>

<br />
Well anyway, if Rob lets me replace my other entry, this one should do much better. It is one of my best and most technical conversions. It is also one of my smoothest. The picture in the lower right hand corner show the back of the cape. It was made out of a space marne captains cape in the middle, flanked by two pieces of the empire wizards kit. If you know the plastic wizards kit, you will see how extensive a conversion this is. Watch the video in the above link. <br />

Hey Fellas! I hope everything is well for everyone out there. This feels so strange since I havent done it in such a long time. I have gotten to play about 4 games of the new edition, 3 of those being in a tournament that I finished dead last in! I had fun throughout the day as a whole but it pretty much sucked sitting there while the guys were picking my bones clean for tournament points at the tail end of a few of the ggames. I havent been back to play since. Maybe that will change since I have decided to take the next three months off of work. I just had a number two and I dont think I have ever seen one quite so beautiful. </div>

I mean that I just had my second son! :D Im obviously thrilled and I am going to take the next three months off from work to get to know the little guy.....and maybe do some painting. That might mean more blogging so hold your breath!</div>

This fella here is my "counts as," Kharn. The base model is of course, the Lord from the Dark Vengence Box. A few details that might be overlooked are the lack of the STUPID random teeth that show up throughout the fig. I couldnt get rid of them all, but I did cut off and resculpted as many as possible. Another change that I made was that I shaved or cut the bone ridges off his antlers. This allowed me to do a color fade that I thought looks much better. Lastly, I gave him a manly pistol. An artifact that once belonged to an ancient Terran called DIRTY Harry. I have written my own rules for the weapon: str 10, ap 1, unlimited range, assault 6</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All for a 5 pt upgrade. i cant wait to bring him out in a tournament! MUHAHahaHa The axe is made from parts from a blood angels axe, two chain axes, two chaos stars, and two skulls.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There is still some minor detail work in order for him to be considered finished!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I cant express how dissappointed in the chaos release I really am. I dont really give a care about the codex as its just rules that I deal with when playing the game. Hell, I liked the last codex, but am always happy for fresh stuff! Anyway, the model release seems so crappy. I am not talking about the new models and whether I like them or not. I am refering to the lack of new kits. Those damn beserker models are really showing there age. The plague marines suck nuts, and those stupid obliterators. regardless of the mini rant here, I am seriously disappointed in the lack of improvement to the csm model range! </div>

Well believe it or not, I havent touched a fig or even thought about playing the new 6th edition of 40K yet. In fact, I picked up the book and flipped through it for about 15 seconds and then put it down stating the art was nice. Im not to sure when I will get around to it, but I will.....Some day. <br />
<br />
<br />
Magilla Gurilla is putting together a charity drive for a Childrens hospital that helped out a buddy of his. Im not really in the know, but if you go over to <a href="http://www.beyondthetabletop.blogspot.com/">www.beyondthetabletop.blogspot.com</a> you can see what he is trying to do. When I first read that he was putting something together I figured that I would donate the existing models in my Nicodem crew. I have mixed feelings about this because these are some of my favorite models that I own. Glad to help, but sad to see them go sorta deal! Mortimer was the model that I didnt have finished and since I said I would finish him, I came out of semi retirement. ive thought more than once about dumping everything and running with whatever money I could get out of it. Let me say that I am really glad i didnt do that. I was asked to paint some other figs to round out the crew but I just am not going to be able to do that. <br />
<br />
Here are some random pictures of some figs that I have never posted,....I dont think! Anyway enjoy the eye candy.<br />

This is for any one who ever needed the proof and wouldn't believe me or DARED doubt, (yes I'm looking at you Bobby,) that Abraham Lincoln was the greatest presidential leader America has ever seen. My liege lord has now had his true tale told and I can be released from my vow of secrecy. Not only did he conspire to start the civil war to sate his own lust for battle, but you now know his true calling.<br />
<br />
Behold, the TRUE story of our 16th president. <br />

* a nice quiet nod or hat tip to friendly faces out there*
</center><center> </center><center>Im not sure if any of you guys recognize this fig, but I have him and a whole command squad painted to a decent level. I have been steadily painting when I have time, but havent played in a long time. Im all right with that ccause even though IVe played 2-3 times in the last few months, I didnt have a good time other than being in my opponents company.
<br />
</center><center style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Anyway, back to what matters. Figs. I had a whole bunch of pictures taken but I dont like the long dong layout of the pics/blog so it looks like you guys will miss out. I have a cool ass dread I converted from an AoBR dread, tech marine, and librarian that round out my command squad.</center><center>

I got lazy, and somehow rationalized the war torn look. REGRET IT!!! I spent a lot of time trying to decide what designs I was going to do. Hence the red X on the inside. Lame? Maybe but good enough for something barely visible. What I really like is the "art nouveau" design on the back of the cape. I am absolutely in love with that stuff. The second picture was a finished picture until I got to thinking that those wings really represented lizard or daemon wings and not the angels of death that this army is being modeled behind. I wanted that to be a re-occuring symbol but I realized with the feathered wings everywhere else, that it wouldnt look coherent. SO... I painted over it and added some color. The two sea gull heads are supposed to be the aquilla eagle heads with one blind eye. Whats the official story behind that anyway?<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-03-GsfrIkyI/Tn_J2HK4xrI/AAAAAAAACG4/_89SmewwMQ4/s1600/128.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656461588475463346" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-03-GsfrIkyI/Tn_J2HK4xrI/AAAAAAAACG4/_89SmewwMQ4/s200/128.JPG" /></a> <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-vxBCFEopFyU/Tn_J19oWRqI/AAAAAAAACGw/7xb9OnUVQ9w/s1600/129.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656461585914676898" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-vxBCFEopFyU/Tn_J19oWRqI/AAAAAAAACGw/7xb9OnUVQ9w/s200/129.JPG" /></a> <a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BDjeSkMrhlQ/Tn_J-3xVsYI/AAAAAAAACHA/VM7oPRl4ULY/s1600/134.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656461738960597378" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BDjeSkMrhlQ/Tn_J-3xVsYI/AAAAAAAACHA/VM7oPRl4ULY/s200/134.JPG" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tKwoUZxs-YI/Tn_JmWuBMbI/AAAAAAAACGg/D3GczLaMaKg/s1600/139.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656461317771440562" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tKwoUZxs-YI/Tn_JmWuBMbI/AAAAAAAACGg/D3GczLaMaKg/s200/139.JPG" /></a> <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-d1j8K8bpzsM/Tn_JmWH8_cI/AAAAAAAACGY/v0UbYqwJ5ak/s1600/137.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656461317611781570" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-d1j8K8bpzsM/Tn_JmWH8_cI/AAAAAAAACGY/v0UbYqwJ5ak/s200/137.JPG" /></a> <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-B49wXztsVuw/Tn_JmMJXiWI/AAAAAAAACGQ/42tmH8TcxvU/s1600/140.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656461314933360994" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-B49wXztsVuw/Tn_JmMJXiWI/AAAAAAAACGQ/42tmH8TcxvU/s200/140.JPG" /></a><br /></center><br /><center>On a side note, does anyone know anything about the last Soul Drinkers book.

<br />Ok well I didnt win or even go but I needed a flashy head line to get you to come over and look at my 95% completed Belial for my Deathwing army. After some time off, it seems that Stella got her grove back. By Stella, I mean me!
<br />For the longest time I couldnt stand the smell of 40K, fig painting or blogger.com! With that time off, 40K has again become what I want it to be. A hobby that I enjoy in my spare recreatioonal time. I still have the intention of selling all my extra stuff but Im not getting out of 40K, not entirely at least. If I want to play, I will play.
<br />So what do you guys think about Belial here? It felt pretty good, sitting down and actually enjoying my art instead of my obligation!!!! See you next time, even if I dont know when that'll be!

I finally completed the Death co. Dreadnought for the Heroes of Armaggedon charity project. I am really glad that I spoke up to Jawaballs after initially taking on a much larger portion of the blood angel army. I had to back out of a significant portion because there was a very real threat of me losing my job. I let a restricted state license, that is contingent to my position, expire. I then did the "right," thing and told the administration about it. Needless to say, that wasnt the right thing to do. The reason that was relevant to my backing out was because I had an Imperial Guard commission lined up and I had to think about the money. Well, either way, I didnt get fired but I had already backed out and that was that. <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iBeK7iGvias/ThJu2Uevf9I/AAAAAAAAB9g/BCFT43KJeWQ/s1600/033.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625680764028813266" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iBeK7iGvias/ThJu2Uevf9I/AAAAAAAAB9g/BCFT43KJeWQ/s200/033.JPG" /></a> <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-W7Ab-m7UpX4/ThJvRs3lhFI/AAAAAAAAB9w/g5PPGXT6asg/s1600/004.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625681234431935570" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-W7Ab-m7UpX4/ThJvRs3lhFI/AAAAAAAAB9w/g5PPGXT6asg/s200/004.JPG" /></a> <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nkcS-VZInH4/ThJu0Q2zr-I/AAAAAAAAB9A/8tasMJJWG84/s1600/008.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625680728696270818" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nkcS-VZInH4/ThJu0Q2zr-I/AAAAAAAAB9A/8tasMJJWG84/s200/008.JPG" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DzvWq8sXELU/ThJu14oubVI/AAAAAAAAB9Y/c1-4ae46Bq0/s1600/030.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625680756554493266" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DzvWq8sXELU/ThJu14oubVI/AAAAAAAAB9Y/c1-4ae46Bq0/s200/030.JPG" /></a> <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--L-XkF2O7Vk/ThJvRLlEcXI/AAAAAAAAB9o/-tJpEo2mAGc/s1600/005.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625681225495900530" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--L-XkF2O7Vk/ThJvRLlEcXI/AAAAAAAAB9o/-tJpEo2mAGc/s200/005.JPG" /></a> <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-__-mEVkZTfE/ThJu0wXfcCI/AAAAAAAAB9I/i5YimTdPL4s/s1600/006.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625680737154854946" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-__-mEVkZTfE/ThJu0wXfcCI/AAAAAAAAB9I/i5YimTdPL4s/s200/006.JPG" /></a><br /><iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/J8yK2NYjA2I?hl=en&fs=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /></center>Black Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16908677149193186762noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8161652134072043578.post-36533646052598532902011-06-29T10:01:00.001-04:002011-06-29T10:01:00.862-04:00Death co Dread WIP for Heroes of Armaggedon prt 6<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qOKiJpnRd4M/TgqIrxhQHOI/AAAAAAAAB80/FZGqpnFwKmI/s1600/024.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623457370334043362" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qOKiJpnRd4M/TgqIrxhQHOI/AAAAAAAAB80/FZGqpnFwKmI/s320/024.JPG" /></a> I havent done any painting except the work on this Dreadnought. The next few steps is when it will start to come together. Its due soon but a lot of the work is actually done on it, all except for the weapons that I so raved about. Not sure if Ill end up doing the ball and chains as this model will just blend into the back ground with so many big wigs on the case.<br />Well, if anyone has noticed, I have most definetly been in a self described "painting funk." Ive backed out of a small commission recently and after I finish all of my commitments, I will be setting down the paint brush for a while. Ive fallen into a social circle that has nothing to do with minis and I would like to explore it for a while. Dont worry, the occasional game or eye candy will show up every now and again.Black Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16908677149193186762noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8161652134072043578.post-90251734743132117302011-06-24T10:15:00.001-04:002011-06-24T10:15:01.348-04:00Land Raider Bling<center><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dbe-t6IfepQ/TgPlO2sOEdI/AAAAAAAAB8s/7c255Uw5gz0/s1600/DeathAngelLRUP.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 273px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5621588803250426322" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dbe-t6IfepQ/TgPlO2sOEdI/AAAAAAAAB8s/7c255Uw5gz0/s320/DeathAngelLRUP.jpg" /></a><br />I ordered three sets of these Land Raider accessories to go with my two new Land Raiders that will be on the way soon enough.

Preferably unbuilt and on the sprue. Main reason is that I would like the top of the land raider and the side sponsons to be removable. Anyone interested in trading, email me.

The two below are part of Belial's chosen command squad, the troop squad he always accompanies. The guy on the left is the original choice and the fella on the right is the proposed change. With the black shield, I thought that it just faded into the model to much. I just realized the guy on the right isnt finished as I meant to paint the inner ring black. Basically a switch-a-roo. Well anyway, which do you prefer?</center><br /><br /><center><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-WG3VENFOwsw/TebzTw_MSmI/AAAAAAAAB64/0IWH6Nw2SMA/s1600/004.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5613441506456914530" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-WG3VENFOwsw/TebzTw_MSmI/AAAAAAAAB64/0IWH6Nw2SMA/s200/004.JPG" /></a><br />And for desert, the battle report I promised the other day.<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/eJlvHpMy330?hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><br /><br /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/eJlvHpMy330?hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />I need to say something because I havent published a couple of the last battle reports where I was beaten. The battle reports are kind of filler material for me and the take the most effort to put together so sometimes I dont get around to it and they fade into the background as time moves on. One in particular is against my arch-enemy, Ryan SInnot. This "ray of sunshine," has knocked me out of about three tournaments.

The shoulder pads and the chest shields will be painted a bone color while the crux terminatis will be in white! Squad markings will be on the right shoulder pad in different colors to differentiate the squads. I cant take credit for the banner, as that belongs to either The Unnamed or Sgt Brisbane. </center><br /><center></center><br /><center>This army will be for sale so if anyone is interested, let me know. Gotta keep the paint brush moving. </center><br /><center></center><br /><center>I got about 45 Jawabases in the trade and something seems to be wrong with them. The paint wont dry on the beveled side of the base. Dan from <a href="http://www.teninchtemplate.com/">www.teninchtemplate.com</a> wrote an article about resin not curing correctly and I wonder if this is the case. Sorry Im to lazy for a direct link, your a big boy, go find it yourself. </center><br /><center>I just realized I dont have Dan in my blogroll, gots ta fix that one!</center>Black Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16908677149193186762noreply@blogger.com8
