Redditch Tabletop Gamers Forum

Despite the silence, i promise painting is still continuing, after getting back from Istanbul on Friday (final work trip for a good two/three months now hopefully!) i've managed to nearly finish my last four Deathwing Knights, just the maces to go, get started on my tech marine and undercoat my Nephillim, two servitors and a Rhino that im going to turn into a whirlwind (when i can get the parts!). this will mean that i have painted virtually everything i have for my Dark angels force.

to give myself a break from painting Power armour i've started on my nurgle force. its not going to be a big force, they're to be used as Allies for my Death guard when i get round to them.
heres their leader though, Urkle the Great Unclean one. (named by my Wife)

I also built 24 Plague Bearers to bulk out the troops and attached wings to my Nurgle daemon prince who will be able to be used in either force.

nice!

ok, so here is an update of the original list which has actually got a little longer since the year started (oops). Having said that the end is in sight for the Dark angel force and i've started on the Nurgle and Death Guard force. I also now have one completely finished Necromunda Gang. i need a quick way to do the cultists so i may have to get some quickshade!
