...and where, ah ha, is your horse?

I wanted to be the first to publish my completed unit for 'Tale of many, many gamers' but I have been busy finishing of figures for my 40k 5th Edition marine army. I managed to scrape a loss last Wednesday against Tomarse's Grey Knights and my bikes were key in allowing me to come second. Anyway enjoy, hopefully, my complete bike unit and a Captain on Bike. Well still the static grass to go on but that doesn't really count. Does it?

The Chosen One

With the 'Tale of some gamers' starting this week, i thought it best to paint something that has nothing to do with it what so ever!

Here is the test piece for the Chosen Marines for my Slaaneshi Chaos Marine force.

To make them look different to to the Noise Marines i have reversed the colour scheme, this one in particular has an Icon of Slaanesh.

Right now to finish off the Possessed Marines....

Biggest of the big hats

Just put the finishing touches to the first model for month one of the "Tale of multiple gamers". Here's my general. Although a lowly Thane right now, I don't really want the hassle of making a new general when the army is expanded beyond 1000pts, so I've made quite an extensive conversion. It reached the point where he was in danger of bling overdose, so the idea of having him carried into battle on a platform carried by slaves has been abandoned. For now.....

This model also marks the start of my experiments with GF9 "Grey Stuff". First impressions are favourable. It dries harder than Green Stuff, and can be cut or filed nicely when dry. The main differences are that the working time is much shorter than Green Stuff, making it less suitable for detail work, and it does not have the same sort of elasticity. But it is definitely well recommended.

Anyway, without further ado, here's a close up picture:

And a before and after picture, showing the BFSP Thane that he is based on.

The only question now is whether he will fit in a unit considering all the additional bulk he has been given. Still, that's a worry for another day. The Death Rocket and crew are next on the list...
