Yesterday, I was casually revising incorporation of terms into an employment contract for my exam next week, when a good friend asked if I 'needed' a SM/DA army.

Now, with 5 armies to paint at the moment, the thing I needed least in the world was another army.

However, these just appeared. No idea how they got there. Apologies for the burry 2nd pic - camera died but you get the idea!)



After nearly 2 years of being in a box, I finally managed to get my Scibor Custodes Paladins with the Big Man assembled.

Love the models even if they are a tad static.

Can this possibly work?

I can do it if I get the harlequins painted. Rest are already done...

Eldrad (fortune both harlequin units)
Fuegan (with rangers on bastion top w/ quad gun (2+ cover)

Farseer: Jetbike, Runes of witnessing, Fortune
5 man jetlock council, embolden, enhance, 3 x destructor

8 harlequins
Deathjester (I love the model)
Shadowseer
All kisses

8 Harlequins
Shadowseer
All kisses

3 jetbikes
3 jetbikes
3 jetbikes
5 rangers

Bastion with quad gun

 Dark Eldar Allies:

Vect
10 Warriors w/ cannon

Low on troops but potentially hideous. 4+ sieze, horrible dual fortuned harquins, 1 unit with preferred enemy. Everything else either 2+ or 3/4+ rerollable saves. Awesome fuegan with 2+ cover (does stealth get passed on? Will have to check) shooting gun with ignore cover + tank hunters.


I will also be using Twitter (once I work out how it works) @nerdophobe . Please follow if you use such online modern gizmos.
In the interests of not shunning the imperium, here is my painted Henchmen unit. I love weird and whacky models.



This is what I have to look forward to painting next. I am considering giving the technique here a try:

Zombie Painting Link on youtube

The results look pretty good and it's quick.

Otherwise this lot may take a while! 80 zombies using Mantic zombies + corporation marines


I will try to get a selection of pictures up over the next few weeks and keep updating them as I can.

I have examinations coming up soon so most of my time will be spend revising until the end of January. After that, I have a massive modelling to-do list.

First up, some of my Word Bearers
