Finally found my old page with some figure pictures on it...

I average out painting 1-2 figures a year at the moment. Hoping that will change this winter...although most likely I will be playing D0W instead.

If ever we would meet, let me know in advance so I can ready my Dark Eldar to whoop the poo out of whatever wussy army you've got.
Pah

I don't play any more, since about 5 years ago.

Technically, I've never played. So it'd be about even then.

how that would turn out..
zwiff: "I don't know the rules"
shambler: "I know the old ones...sorta"
zwiff: "I declare charge!"
shambler: "it's the first turn!"
zwiff: "YAaaaaaaaaaaaaargh"
shambler punches zwiff in the stomach.
Hey

Why does bler punch ME in the stomach? It should be the other way around. I'm not a dainty Brit, after all, I'm a rugged American.
And you CAN charge on the first turn if your unit is close enough...

one would hope you've set up your figures far enough away.
Waaargh!

Im thoroughly enjoying the demo myself, cant wait for the final. As for tactics in the game i agree for marine vs marine cpu skirmishes there is just this one way to go about, but after unlocking the orks in the demo i see there is some variety in how the different races resources are managed, as in building waaargh banners that can be destroyed for ork resource, making these banners an important strategic point as to the size and power of your army. I can only hope there are variations such as these for the two other races.
I think its too early to talk about tactics only having marine vs marine cpu skirmishes as a default, wait for multiplayer with the 4 races, alliances, more diverse skirmish maps and so to tell, and i believe the SP will be scripted or "set up" so as to call on more strategy than the plain marine vs marine skirmish.
Oh and i see over in forums the w40k community has already started on modding in tons of other races from the w40k world, so rawk :P

Thx for the hack, bler. The Orks are definetely cool. Mobs and mobs of Orks, very fun to play. Didn't know how to increase my population at first though, which became troublesome, and I eventually lost my first skirmish. After that, though, it was a peace of cake. They're A LOT easier to play as than the marines imo. Cheap,fast reinforcements, huge mob sizes. Almost able to build a Squiggoth, but won by map control victory before I could get enough energy. Maybe next time. Good stuff though.

Thx for the hack, Killes. Works a treat. Yeah I like the orks, very characterful. Took me a while to get the hang of them - won my first skirmish but it took a long, long time. Basically piling them into the meat grinder. There's gotta be a knack to them.
I like them telling you to "SOD OFF" =)

Nice painted figures!
Hmmm

Shambler, the texturing is ok but try to add some more trim around the lower areas, maybe some more contrast in the lighting would bring out some more details... Anyway looks good, am looking forward to the beta...
:)
mad skills, I never could paint that good, my hands are too jittery... :(

...unfortunately the layout needs tweaking as the gameplay is lame at the moment =).

The most interesting thing on that page was the link to GW's policy on IP. Good to see a company with such a clear and helpful statement on the matter.
btw, haven't you ever heard of BoltThrower?!?!

I'd take a wild guess and say sable brushes and acrylic paint. Yum. I love the smell of primer in the morning.
