I got a miscast Forge World Korvydae!

Im really gutted look what came in the post:



I rang them up about the jump pack, but I hadnt quite realised how bad the main bit was. I will show them these pics and hopefully get a decent one sent.

Spacin Joints!


Word.

Right I finally started these pappies. I built one and to be honest I was a little disappointed. I think SM have got a little dated looking, not very dynamic and kind of squashed. I searched the web and found that by adding a little GS to the joints including the head totally changes the look of the model - basically, spaces things out a little. I think it looks more dynamic and like the the 'rine has full range of motion. Its more obv in the flesh, and now I have this one out of the way I will make more exciting poses.

Still needs a lot of tidying mold line wise etc



 Oh and my Microsol finally arrived, should help with the application of those awesome transfers.

Vanilla Blood Angels for Raven Guard!

This is the list I think I like, please feel free to comment, its main aim is speed.


Captain
Thunderhammer
Jump Pack                               155

Ass Marines (10)
flamer
Power fist                                 220

Tac Rines (10)
Melta Gun
Plasma Cannon
Power Weapon
Drop Pod                                 230

Sternguard Vets (8)
Combi Melt
Combi flamer
Combi Plas
Power Weapon
Drop Pod                                 265

Scout Snipers (8)
Sniper Rifles
Heavy Bolter
8 Camo cloaks                         148

Land Speeder Squad (3)           150

Land Speeder Squad (3)          150

Land Speeder Squad (3)
x 3 Multi Meltas                         180

                                                                  Total 1498

I really like this list I think its fluffy and really hard hitting. All those deep striking units should be a real hand full I think. Land Speeders are annoying in ones so 9 should really be annoying. 

The tac and Stern are my central attack, the rest is there to support them or help them deploy safely, which ever comes first. I can spread the Multi Meltas out one in each squad if I fancy as well.

Edit

This list, again uses the BA dex and was made by Tim link

I like it, the LS are less in number but harder hitting:

The Power of the Web!! A big Thank You!!

Yo

Im blogging  with the biggest, dirtiest hangover I have had for a long time (work do!) but aside from that Im making the extra effort to make a MASSIVE thank you to Neil, someone I have never met but made time and generously sent me the Raven Guard transfers. TBH its stuff like this that makes you glad to have a hobby like this. Been chatting over the email and yeah, another warhammer mate! Awesome.

This is link to his blog.

Despite my delicate predicament I might crack out the paints this aft.
