I'll take your request, Toad. What would you like in an OK mini? I've got lots of them lying around, mostly for Ogryn conversion purposes. ^^

Oh fantastic, you're a champ.  You can have a go at a Butcher if you like (preferred), or an Irongut if that floats your boat.

As Syphon has most generously offered mine, I guess I'll do... Fold's Kroot Shaper, if'n he likes.  I'll PM you with some ideas later.

Well played, TW.  By well played, I of course mean god damn your traitorous ways.

Of course there is still half a month for people to sign up still too.
Considering my chosen armies are Vampire Counts and Night Lords, yes, I think "Back from the dead" is probably the most accurate description of my return.

Sweet, Dr_Ruminahui is in Alberta Canada, not too expensive for me.

I volunteer a Sister Superior with Eviscerator for him.  Though I can't start it until Spring Break (March 31st).

Thanks, DJ-o-E, I really like your stuff, even if you do have quite a different style from my own.

Why don't you put in your own location and desire so someone can do something for you?

Doesn't that mean my name will be placed in the drawing and I have to do one for another person?

No, if you've already volunteered for someone else, then you have your model to work on. At least as I understand it.

Hey Drakin I may be interested in doing some for you, can you be a bit more specifici in what you are looking for?  I have some ideas but i figured it's best to find out what you are looking for first.

Night Lords pretty much.  ;D  A Sorceror or Chosen aspiring Champion. Or a biker if it's not too much to ask. Take your pick.

If that were the case

1) Los Angeles, California - United States
2) Red Corsairs Chaos Space Marine Army
3) Chaos Chosen Marine with Lightning Claws (I'll leave it to your imagination in how to make your chosen).  Though a Dark Angels Veteran cloak style is preferred.  As long as it has the red and black color scheme, I am fine.

Do you want it to be a model you can play with or not? If it is, then a cool idea won't work, but I'll listen to your wishes. :)

As much as I'd like to see a cool idea, playability is preferable.  I'd like him to be mixing it up at the tournament I am attending in... quite some time.  Months away, so don't panic.

scribbled in large friendly letters on its cover. :D I could make it a removable base? Yeah, I think I'll do that. A scenic base for display and a removable square one for gaming. I've got a few nifty ideas ready. ^^

So I'll do DJ-of-E's. Works for me. Since we're all set with our models, shall we start ? Or Are we waiting until it officially begins ?

Any particular style your army is based ? Rubble, ash waste, lava, etc. ?

   Go on then, I completely missed the first one.

Area: Europe.
Army: Blood Angels.
Unit: Jump Pack Chaplain.
Colour: Predominantly black with bone and red trim/accessories. Urban base, black edged.
Reason: With the advent of the pdf version of the Blood Angel Codex my old Chaplain became illegal. Which was a good thing. He was designed as a close combat monster for 3rd edition tournament play and sported a Jump Pack and master-crafted twin lightning claws. He was an absolute beast. Even with the toning down of Assault for 4th edition, the addition of Litanies of Hate meant that the Death Company were often left with nothing to attack.
   I realise that I've been quite specific on the paint/base combination but the model will basically end up being the primary HQ option for around 5k of Blood Angels. I'd quite like to see something based off of a standard plastic Tactical Marine.


   As an aside, I'll grab Fal's model. I've been keep looking at my Eldar Warhost and wanting to do something with/for them but can't decide what. Can you PM me a couple of Army pics so I can pick something to fit in?

-S
I reserve the right to end any discussion with a big stick.

I'll start to do mines on the 31st, midterms, finals, and spring challenge is keeping me busy.  The 31st signals the first day of Spring Break in the U.S. for me.

As for base, I'm using and doing this for now.

Example is both the marines in this picture.

Here's a sample of my paint scheme, DJ - the eviscerator superior that I converted for myself...

Feel free to get started. There's still 2 weeks before we officially start so more people may well sign up. But if you've already chosen someone to model for then you can start ahead of time.
I know Khagrim has already started on Naikee's Autarch and it is looking damn sexy!

Some of us are still behind on the last exchange ... *looks guilty*
