yeah that will be nice at the end. I have a Carnodon from fw as my only wip atm

I'm abysmally slow at painting so pretty much everything is on the backlog

really need to finish chopping up the second Jag into a Rhino and throw at least some base colours on them

going with the standard german grey since the whole army is blitzkrieg/urban themed Iron Warriors

I got a metal barrel and muzzle for the Pz.IV's long 75

got some of those in PaK 40 kits years ago and never looked back since

no seam lines, perfect machined precision, they're delicious

also stuck a meltagun on the turret pintle since I run it stock with just the A/C and a combi-melta for popping stuff up close

it's cheap and makes a good distraction/mobile cover while my Rhinos filled with angry get into position

I have a huge guard army thats mostly painted

I need to finish my kriegers off

and then finish my death army off

then finish repainting my ultramarines

cause all their unitmarkings are getting upgraded from HH company format to 40k company format

I'm trying to be disciplined

This is 12 years of hobbying tbh

I've wanted to do a DarkMech force ever since Admech came out

hah

Oh I have an admech force as well

forgot about that

well I'm not sure it counts but I've been in the game for... 15 years

Its like 2k or something

a solid 8 of that was a hiatus from being sick of GW's shit though

some FW 30k admech stuff

most is 40k tho

I use em allies

GW are a neccessary evil the way I see it

I don't like the way they use CAD etc now

I don't hate the CAD minis

But compared to other hobby firms their prices are "not that bad"

but still extortionate

er...

I mean, maybe?

I'm not excusing what they do but if you collect warmahordes or whatever

you're probably spending the same amount for nice armies

oh god yeah I'm sure hordes is expensive as fuck now

but I have no real experience with those systems

it used to be cool when a force was like... a caster, two Jacks and some grunts

stuff like FoW is dirt cheap by comparison though

I think the main thing about 40k

and Gaslands has taken root in my brain
