i do have a spare commisar yarrick model lying around somewhere (one of the benefits of living with someone who used to own a game store)... i could put a little sign that says "alas poor yarrick, i knew him well!" and put the good commissar's head in hamlet's hand.


the chapter is dark angels. i use the bone facemask on the helmets as an Army Badge, as opposed to coming up with a creative design.

Heh, my Ultras had a yellow diamond on the left shin-guard. Now THAT'S creative

How have you made Serg. Hamlet's under-ams look so good? The arms and L.Claws are "borrowed from a Termi, yes? And the shoulder pads are normal MkVII, but I can't see the join. What did you use?

Nice. My old Valhallan army is collecting dust....ah the good old days.


Best game I ever played was where my Vindicare Assassin had to kill a diplomat under Space Marine escort. (a scenario my friends and I made up).

My assassin almost killed him too but the marines found him in a belltower and shot a rocket at him.

Almost.....

Raw Materials:



tools: pin vice, brass rod, dremel tool, clippers, superglue, various and sundry files, guitar string, and the ubiquitous "green stuff" putty.

1. sawed off right arm just above elbow using dremel. ground down nub for left arm a little.

2. sawed off shoulder pads on lightning claws, and cables.

3. positioned and pinned claws in place.

4. resculpted joints of the lightning claws, and covered the seams.



5. drilled a series of ultimately awkward holes and attatched power cables from the claws to the back pac mount.

6. sculpted couplings for the power cables.

**

that's it, really.

"...and then I just sculpted the couplings... " WOW, that's all I can say. It really looks like a bought model. If it wasn't for the fact that I recognised the parts...

I have fond memories of laying down enough artillery fire with my Epic 40k Guard army to completely cover my brother's entire army with "pie plates" After that we made an "agreement" that it was only allowed to take 2 regiments of any particular troops, although I "broke" the deal by including a regiment of Squat Mole Mortars and Thudd Guns in the next game. *snigger* The other great memory from Epic 40K was taking out my brother's Imperator Titan with my first shots of the game, before it could fire once. Sweet vortex missiles of love.

I still think my Commissar can take down that lightning clawed marine.

........with 3 accompanying squads. Just kidding.

I tried doing my own conversions but I sucked a** at it. Except for Necromunda models. My Delaque was the shiz-nit.

I've got a bunch of plastic space marines and a couple of rhinos packed away somewhere... it's a pitty I never knew anyone who played Warhammer, or even knew how to play myself. Cool figures, though. it was fun putting them together and painting them.

I always enjoyed painting gemstones. Highlight LIGHTER at the bottom, and add a white spot on the top. Simple trick, but BOY did it make my Eldar look good.

holy crap, that's freakin' sweet.

Shoot, you could just buy the model and paint it...then sell that bad boy on eBay. Do you just collect and paint them, or do you participate in tournaments as well?

i'm not good enough to make my efforts back on ebay. i do whore myself out to others who don't have the time, patience, or talent. usually charging what the figures cost to paint them. my friend duane has won a golden demon. he could make a little bit of money on ebay...

i play, but not as much as i'd like to. there's also the fact that i'm re-doing my army, because my old minis weren't taken care of when i moved to texas. that, and my painting has gone up a notch or seven since some of those things were painted. i plan on scavenging what bitz i can and selling the rest on ebay.
