Cheers lads! It seems clear to me now that all the best people are born in July! Nutty, did you know Harry Potter shares our birthday too!
I really can’t stress enough how much I can’t wait to get my grubby mitts on that Stormsurge.
MD, wow! That’s a lot of plastic/resin crack! What team do you play in Blood Bowl?

I was not born in July.
You are mistaken.

@jud: that I knew. I just hope our birthdays will never get eclipsed by "international harry potter day" Are we really? Just how much of that day do you remember? |

That’s fantastic! Looking forward to seeing them in your colour scheme. Are Armigers the ones with Melta and Chainblade?
5 days to go!

Yes that's the one and it also has a Multi-Melta on the top for good measure. I think I have finished the chequered pattern but my god was it frustrating. Only 4 Days to go now, Imagine if you do this count down and you don't get one, or even worse, you think you have one, Open the box and it's empty. |

Lol! Don’t say it! I’d keel over with the shame of it!
I expect your Armigers will look good.
I’m currently working on the last of the Fire Warriors, I’ll post pics once they’re done.

Pantslessness is one thing, but this is clearly heresy. Just look how small those missiles are.

Cool! I never really understood the open cockpit the model has, but the pilots do give a good sense of scale: that thing is huge.

That is so brilliant; nice work, especially in the cockpit and all the damage and weathering. The eternal war against the enemies of the Greater Good continues. Those pesky gulls...  |

By far the coolest thing in the Tau army (Excluding the Tau Manta)
Really decent paint job there Jud, the Blue LED's really pop out off the green and you get a real sense that he's planted in the ground, ready to tear you a new one.
I quite like the cockpit section, I think they should have done this with the Imperial Knights.

Cheers gents!
Nutty, yeah, it's massive! I personally really enjoyed the extra detail the open cockpit provided. Was a lot of fun.
Cheminhaler, I wanted to give the whole force a slightly weathered look. Those gulls don't give a toss, they'll crap on anything!
MD, it took me a while to work out what to do with the lenses, I'm glad you think it worked.
Well I have 20 more infantry (Breachers and more Pathfinders) a Commander and 3 Crisis Suits left to paint so plenty to be getting on with.

How many wounds does that thing have? It's just an anti-Everything!
I still enjoy looking at the cockpit, they could have made the chest section so boring and plain but won on this model.
Breachers? I'm not sure I'm confirtable being Breached.
