Tallarn Commander

Brother Christopher, sorry to hear your won't finish your vow. Life happens, as we all know. Guardian 31, I love your marine's dramatic pointing pose. That was a wonderful powerfist bit back in the day. April vow completed Keep the good work coming everyone!

Wonderful conversion! Your greenstuff and milliput work is quite good. For what it's worth, my small force of daemons features bone bodies and red heads

Thanks for the detailed guide and the hilarious commentary!

They look wonderful. Your army has always been a grand fusion of retro miniatures and new models. I love it!

Thank you for taking the time to write up this fun battle report. It's too bad about your opponent forgetting how synapse works. D'oh! But it looks like it was a fun game nonetheless. I'm have also been enjoying Nightmare Hunt lately. And, like yours, my Noise Marines have been using the fall back and shoot strat when they find themselves in melee. Did you use your Raptors in the new configuration with 5 powerfists in a squad of 10? I've really been enjoying them now that they have more bite in melee. Ave Dominus Nox!

I finished Scrapcode's banner. I hope to finish my pledge this week.

They look great! Either way of designating leaders would work nicely.

The Flawless Blades look great, the capes came out looking quite swirly and dynamic. Have you used Zip Kicker? You spray it on superglue and the glue dries in seconds. I use it sparingly because it is a smelly solvent (open windows are your friend) and because a Zip Kicker bond will be weaker than a normal superglue bond. But it does help in awkward situations where you have to hold models together so the glue dries.

Thank you for taking the time to write this tutorial. I've bookmarked it for someday when I make some Traitor (and loyalist) tank destroyers.

That's a nice discovery! And hopefully the plains of western Canada are warm enough for you to spray prime now that it is late April.

These poses are wonderful! Do you happen to recall where you got the shotgun bit for the trooper on the righjt? That's a nice bit. Based off of what you said about poses, being mostly firing or advancing. I went back and looked at my Nostroman 9th Traitor Guard troopers. Wow! You are right. Almost all of my troopers are either firing or advancing. I did find a handful of troopers who are a bit more varied in what they are doing... Nostroman 9th Traitor Guard Who Are Not Firing or Advancing Sadly, these troopers are the except to the rule. Most of my Nostroman 9th is either aiming or striding forward. Sigh.

These are brilliant kitbashes and paintjobs! I look forward to watching your creativity.

Nice progress. I'm looking forward to seeing some of your tech explorator vessels! BFG still is my favorite GW game. You had to think 2 to 3 turns ahead to conceptualize where your ships would end up.
