Well it’s been a couple of weeks and due to real life
(rugby, grand prix, couple of heavy nights out) I’ve not really done as much as
I would have liked. I’ve managed to build a few extra bits and also placed yet
another Forge World order for the last of the bits I need, a Spartan and a
Typhon :D
On the painting front I’ve done the Rampager Squad, I can
honestly say that they were a pleasure to paint, bags and bags of character
throughout. There was stuff I wasn’t noticing until actually putting paint on them,
like the guy with the swollen eye, I really enjoyed putting paint on these
guys, I think they’ll stand out pretty well within the whole force.
I’ve also got the first of the 2 characters done. I wanted a
pretty stoic looking face so had a look through some Plogs on Warseer to see if
I could find one that would suit and low and behold it was a friend of mine,
Rev, who’s log sprung up the one I thought would be most suitable. The good old
terminator sergeant head, just the right look I was after. You’ll notice that
the Centurion hasn’t got any blood smeared on him at the moment, not really
sure if I want to add some, I’d appreciate some feedback and thoughts on this.
Does he need it and why etc.
And as I mentioned above I’ve also kept on building stuff,
the first of the 2 Contemptor Dreadnoughts (currently on the painting table)
and the 2nd huge Tactical squad. All that leaves to build now is the
Destroyer Squad, the Heavy Weapons Squad, a Praetor, the 2nd
Contemptor, a Land Raider Phobos, a Spartan and last but by no means least the
Typhon. So 19 marines and dreadnought and 3 tanks, it looks a lot but hopefully
it won’t take long. On the back of this stuff I also have the remainder of
Craigs World Eaters to do as well! Best get building and painting!!
