Thanks for the compliments on the Lord guys :)

@Unscientific Postscript the yellow looks a little flat in the shoot, it is in fact shaded. As for the banner it's a piece of beer can, I have tried using other materials, pop cans etc but beer can gives the most satisfaction in the material recovery phase ;D.

Just hack out a section, lay it flat and use  sharp knife to cut out the required shape.

Hods its shape and is relatively easy to paint.

I'm going to possibly strip my Deathwing Terminators, but will be most definitely painting them.  Also a Dire Troll Mauler, and possibly my Axer this month.

Armies- W/L/D
Tau (2000 pt under construction: assembling & painting) 1/2/1
Space Marines 1800 Points: Dark Angels (under constructions: finish painting) 6/2/2

Bad news guys, I'm going to have to dumb down my vow as one of my bits was miscast and am going to have to wait for another wing to come in  :'(

I'm vowing 9 chaos raptors, I've finally decided, they're going to be raptors.

Oh, and SeriousCallersOnly, you forgot me again :'(

Good, next time Thagrosh can kill an actual dire troll, instead of just a blank base.

I'm feeling brave and will vow a Legion of Everblight Forsaken as well.

Well, I ended up going to GW today and got some hawks and shees!  I also grabbed some more paint. Haha I was too cheap to cough up the money for the primer so im gonna be going to home depot sometime this week (I hope). Plus! I needed money to get home  :P.  I was too lazy to continue on to the next step of my eldar today so the guardians will have to wait!
 >:( <guardian
But I did finish 5 of my avengers last night!
Sorry, dont have any pics yet but they are comming!  ;D

Ah, I feel a little less unimportant now.
I just got an e-mail back from GW, they're going to send me the bit that was miscast for free  ;D although I feel a little bad making them ship it for one little chaos fury wing....

Yeah, unfortunately once I get my champions and some other units your going to be in a whole world of pain.  Especially when my Fell Caller boosts their damage, and Hoarluk Doomshaper uses Dhunia's Wrath.

Painting of vowed Avengers temporarily on hold while converting 3 old Wraithlords to take 2nd weapons (without removing glued-on starcannons).  So also painting 3 each of ScL, BL and EML (with magnets).

Back to Avengers soon!

oooh, gribbly dribblyness nice.

well I have 4 fully painted dwarves, 6 with their metallic coats done and the remainding 6 undercoated.  However I am going to be in France skiing for the next week so no more updates from me I'm afraid.  still, over 2 weeks to sort things when I get back so should easily be on target.
