More Painting

As you can see above I've managed to get a fair bit of painting done over the last couple of weeks, decided I should try and get the army to a decent size whilst I had some spare time (is there such a thing?) and as I need the army for a forthcoming tournament that gave me a target :) So fully painted it sits at just shy of 1250 points using the Chaos Codex.

So what's new then? well you've all seen the terminators and most of the tactical marines, the mkIII squad have a nice new transport in the form of a Demios Pattern Rhino.
And the mkIV squad has an extra few guys making it a 15 man strong squad, there will be more for this squad aswell, got to get it up to 20 strong.
Then there's some heavy support in the shape of an autocannon squad, again there will be a few more guys for this squad to give them a bit more of a cushion.
And what would any Heresy era army be without a Contemptor Dreadnought!
The army also got a leader, hadn't ever planned of this guy but I had the mini in the box ready to go and Angron wasn't anywhere near dropping in yet.

And that's it for the 1250 point army, I am currently painting another Contemptor, the actual World Eaters one this time and I recieved a nice little box from Forge World the other day with Angron in it, so he's finally arrived.The eventual size for the army will be at least 1850 as it's what I'm intending to use at the Indy GT final in March, but then the Dark Angels have arrived so who knows what I'm going to use as I wouldn't mind doing some Deathwing.

I also painted this guy for ebay;

If you're interested have a look here, I've also got a few unused gaming bits on there as well.

Over the next few weeks I'll also be doing some more Mentors as part of an ongoing commission job using the new Dark Angel models, if you want to see more of the Mentors I've done look here, just in case anybody doesn't know, the army in it's infancy was featured in the Apocalypse book.

So that's it for now, just a bit of a ramble and to show you all what I've been up to over the last couple of weeks, I'd like to know what you all think of what I'm putting in here and if there's anything you'd like to see me do.

Thanks
