Trevy's Painting Table

Sorry for not posting in a while, I've been pretty busy this week.:(

It's okay though, I have some pretty awesome models to show you guys!

The Ganger, 'Raven', and the Juve, 'Belle', are Level 4 models.  The diminutive 'Rat' is delegated to a paltry Level 3.  I hope you enjoy!

I've gotten started on a small force of Eldar infantry - just 6 Swooping Hawks and 6 Fire Dragons.  Here's a sneak peak of the Swooping Hawks.

Sorry for the bad picture, I'll take a better one later on.  Also, this guy is Level 3.

I got another battle report up - this is a good one, so hopefully it will make up for last week when I didn't make one.  These Lizardmen are actually my own army that my friend was using, sorry for the unpainted models.

I'm planning to have a game on Saturday that will be a bit of a grudge match - a friend of mine in my gaming group told me the other day that he felt that he had 'mastered' the Space Marines Codex.  Unfortunately for him I think that he is just a bit full of himself and a wee bit overconfident in his power-armored buddies, so I challenged him to a game to prove it.

To give this a bit of a background, this particular player has never beaten me in a game of Warhammer 40,000 and tends to forfeit at the end of turn four or five.

I've been running my Blood Angels recently with some luck (there should be pictures of them as soon as I paint one or two more as they are looking really cool), but since this is a special occasion my Tyranids will be making a reappearance to lay the smackdown.  No quarter will be given nor asked.  Of course it will be televised!

I wrote down my list this afternoon, which is a pretty competitive list, although I believe that is justified considering the situation.  Obviously, it is for 2,000 points.

Tyranid Prime w/ Adrenal Glands, Toxin Sacs a Deathspitter and a Pair of Boneswords

Hive Tyranid w/ Armored Shell, Regeneration, 2 Twin Linked Brainleech Devourers and Hive Commander

2x Zoanthropes

10 Ymgarl Genestealers

4 Warriors w/ Deathspitters, Barbed Strangler, Adrenal Glands and Toxin Sacs

2x17 Termagaunts

3x10 Genestealers

Trygon Prime w/ Toxin Sacs, Adrenal Glands and Regeneration

Carnifex w/ Adrenal Glands and Regeneration

Total Models - 85

Total Synapse Units - 6

Total Points - 2,000 on the money

I've gotten started on some Orks for a new and relatively sizeable project.  You know, it's funny - the more projects I get the less time I seem to have to post things on this blog, videos etc.  That's too bad, I should try to rectify that.

Anyway, these guys are all Level 2 except for the Nobz in front, which are Level 3.

Sorry I haven't posted in a while - my internet has been on the fritz lately!

Just letting everyone who is interested know that there are only 12 hours left on the eBay auction of the Black Ops Tau army!  Ahh!

As you may have noticed, the site down was for a while yesterday.  This was due to a slight problem with renewing the domain however it has been succesfully dealt with.  I am very sorry for any inconvenience that it may have caused.

I always keep my promises.  Sometimes.

I promised Mantis Warriors pics, and I deliver.  Well, I deliver one.  Ah well...

All the bikes and the tanks are Level 2, except for the commander dude in the front with the halberd.  A lot of them have some modular pieces as well - the Attack Bike has a magnetized Heavy Bolter/Multimelta mount and the tanks can convert into Rhinos.

I've been having a pretty crazy day so far...

It started snowing pretty heavily around noon, which made the drive back from my work treacherous at best.  I ended up losing control at one point and running up a snowbank - which grows funnier the more I look back on it, but certainly wasn't at the time.  It's forecasted to snow until around Thursday, so I expect that I'll spend a lot of time shovelling!

On a more interesting model related side, I've started work on some cool Mantis Warriors!  Pictures of those will be up for consumption shortly.
