UPDATE - Roll Call! Join up with the Remnants :D

[ElegaicRequiem]

You still have to roll to hit. I do not. *sticks tongue out*

[Kaikelx]

Yeah! Bandanna!


Also, I have a heavy bolter. Chances are I will make one of those rolls. Plus, I can shoot you from farther away.

[Hetfiltrator]

ReWolf - That's a fantastic idea! Do you want me to put a model together for you and then mail it? Or are you thinking about painting up one of your own? Or have I completely misinterpreted what you meant?

You have completely interpreted what I meant

Yeah you put together a guy, and mail him over and I'll paint him up (although you'll have to tell me what colours). Although you might just want to - partially-assemble him, lest the mini come apart in the post

[Scarper]

ReWolf - Awesome! I'm back in my flat on Tuesday, so hopefully I can get something put together and out to you by Thursday or Friday. I think I've still got your address in a PM you sent me about the kroot stuff a while back. This is exciting! ;D

Thinking about it though, pretty much all the high ranks are taken except for Al'Rahem. Would you like to have a go at my model for him? There are a bunch of vet and command squad positions available? Or maybe a rough rider? Those motorbikes look like they'd be pretty fun to paint... (I'm starting my first one on Tuesday!)

@deamon-Doctor Hetlan - Of course you can! But what name do you want? And any details at all? I'll put in 'Hetlan' as a placeholder for you, but don't forget the stuff like hair colour, armour markings and graffiti...

EDIT: Exciting news! Two new spots have opened up in the exciting field of blowing stuff up! In other words, I forgot to put the demo charges in. If you have a steady hand, a long throw and a death wish, be sure to consider the new posts

[druchi]

Just going to say painting tartan can be really difficult, although there are a couple of guids floating about and I have no real prefrence to any tartan.

Good luck!

[metcalfedan]

Can I call the Company Standard Bearer?

Metcalfe
Skin: Caucasian - Tanned (basically a white guy with a sun tan - could just be dirt)
Hair: Fair/Short
Rugged and Tatty-looking, Lots of Battle Damage

Cheers Scarper

[Scarper]

druchi: Thankyou! I was just thinking of maybe a patch on the knee of the trousers or something like that, nothing too massive. I figured it might be hard though, will give it a try anyway. Check out commissarbob's thread for some seriously awesome freehand tartan. Wish I could do it that good!

@metcalfe: No problem at all, will get that updated now ;D

[ElegaicRequiem]

Metcalfedan, your job is boring. I'm gonna be roasting, toasting, and hosting bbq parties...

[Scarper]

Willem - How does Green Platoon Squad B Sergeant sound? I'm afraid noone in my army has carapace, but I'll make sure you get a fine set of flak armour like the rest of the guys - I hear it's the finest armour the emperor can provide! Will stop plasma blasts for sure The hair I can do, and I'll give a wristwatch a go, but I'm afraid rings are probably a little out of my league in terms of fiddliness. Sword and pistol I can probably do, and I'll make sure you're toting it in your left hand too. The brown pants should be ok too, though you'll be getting some bleached bone camo on them too to keep with the rest of my army. Hope that's ok - I just don't want to swamp myself with stuff that's too complex at this point, and I'm trying to keep a unified theme for everyone

@julian Sharps - Al'Rahem it is! I hope you've been practising your sneaking, you may be called upon to conceal a 45 man platoon with no cover on a regular basis.

cplleach715 - Thank you! I'll see what I can do about the bush hat, and I can guarantee you a cigarette for sure. You have to promise not to vanish off the forum though - I want to make sure you're there when I post the model!

Cheers for all the input guys, this ought to keep me motivated and interested in painting for quite a while! Keep em coming, there's orkses to kill

"wrisgirl thingych" - absolutely fantastic. The autosensor on these boards is brutal.

And i'm gonna cruise around on a motorcycle chopping peoples heads off ;D

[Scarper]

To be fair, metcalfedan is almost certain to outlive you all from his cozy command chimera...

EDIT: He can poke his shiny flag out of the top hatch! ;D

Better to live one day as a lion, then a hundred days as a sheep - Italian proverb (I think)

[metcalfedan]

;D

I'd rather be safe than dead.

EDIT: Oh yeah - I forgot to ask for the model to be painted like a ninja [/sarcasm]

[nicholasakira]

I'd sign up to be a chimera gunner or driver, but I doubt you could convert a laptop in sunglasses and put it in.

Unless you're feeling up to it.

[Scarper]

Well actually, I plan on modelling my chimeras like these ones, which have an enclosed driver's compartment. I'd be happy to slap your make and model number as a crew name on the side of the truck, if you want

Nothing wrong with AI piloting stuff...

EDIT: I have just made a small mod to my force organisation after it turned out my maths is, well, terrible. Should now come out to a 2000pt force, but the other chimera is gone, I'm afraid You can be a machine spirit in the bassie though?

[Deleted]

I would like the position of plasma gunner in the CCS if it isn't asking too much..
no preference for hair with pale skin, a glasgow smile (like the joker), 3 rings on the right hand, and a tattoo of a black circle with white in the middle.
