I'm voting Vampire Counts here; as amazing as my regular opponents fluffly Strigoi list is, it's just no fun to play against. A horde of about 40 ghouls, Vampire that reduces Ld of units near him, Necro doing the same, and a Terrorgheist in 1000pts is no fun. I'll post the list up if you want, it is...

Okay, first 4 Archers are half painted. So, these pics are WIPs, as is clear. I just wanted to get comments on the colour scheme so far, and as much constructive crit as possible. I'm really happy with the blue right now, and with snow bases it should really come out nicely, but I do feel my ability...

Ahhhh! I'm relieved that it's a positive response to the idea so far! I'm not sure with the whites whether I should build on greys to keep it a cold white, or khaki tones to give a Warner tone. I suppose with snow and blues grey makes sense, though. The long term plan will be to build scenery like t...

For about the 3rd time now, I'm going to return declaring I'm going to start my High Elves; but this time it's actually happening! Whether anyone remembers me still or not... I've no idea. To give my excuses to any who do, they're as follows; I got really busy, and consistently indecisive over what ...

There you go ^.^

I'm not trying to find the dude who did those awesome Japanese Elves. They were so cool; but finding these posts takes so long Dx

Hello! It's been a long time since I last posted here - like two years? Basically now I'm home free I need to get my High Elves painted up! Last I was here I was painting my VC and now I realize I need a nice compact army to trudge around with me, instead of cases full of Zombies and Orcs/Goblins! N...

lol, GW are laughable at times, seriously. You guys here are right, the fanbase is far to loyal. And I can't believe they'd get so pathetic over tattoos. It's hardly like tattooists are gonna be advertising GW symbols and insignias, it'll just be some dude coming in with their codex or a print off g...

I'm so stealing the idea I saw of using those Griffons as Eagles. I spent enough money converting my own Griffon lord, those chickens can go down as some eagles. Saves me buying the boring, generic GW ones, and saves me buying the largest Warmaster dragons I could get.

We already have a Skaven player in our group, or it would certainly have been my next choice. Empire seems to have some of the same randomness and explosive potential in their weirder artillery (rockets, mortars, volley guns) and that's another reason that I am leaning that way. I also play Orcs &a...

Orcs & Goblins, High Elves and Vampire Counts for Fantasy Tau and Space Wolves for 40K. Here's the thing though... I have a handful of Tau painted, no Space Wolves painted, and only about 2 units of Vampire Counts and High Elves painted :( I now have time to paint though! :D So High Elves/Vampir...

LOL, What have I done!!! The guys I demod this game for are now absolutly obsessed with Warhammer. Looks like we'll be having weekly lunchtime games and an escalation league. Not so long ago, these same folks were accusing me of extreme nose-pickery (the local slang for nerdery). It all started wit...

Why am I the only one who is seriously disappointed by these new models... The new LSG look nice enough (apart from the silly heads) but theyre uni pose , static and plain so no creativity in peoples modelling of them. The SMs look very boring and static as well, it makes me jealous of DE players w...

its spacewolves alright. white would look way bright and stand out alot more. I'm just going to leave the archers as is. They'll be ok with the rest of the units. They look magnificent dude. I'm much like you- I'm after neat, clean models. I'm not Golden Demon winner, and I don't feel I should try ...

Oh I edited the post since you wrote :D. I didnt actually paint that one with the orb It was given to me by a friend who taught me painting basics when he was a GW staffer. My own favourite is the one with sword on the right personally, I've kept it instead of selling it off with the rest of the mo...

Its also a good habit to write down all the paints you use all the time, just incase you like something. I do it for all my unit so I can always go back and models to the unit without guessing. http://www.ulthuan.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=31346 Has more pictures and all the colours. I did h...

Wow Anathir that really helped dude. I have the basics of painting down, and from my time studying art my colour theory is pretty good too, just something went horribly wrong with my High Elves. If you don't mind me asking (and maybe stealing) could you give more detail about how you do your current...

@Asur Aman: Duuude I remember you too ;D I'll definately post up my progress with whatever army I am persuaded to choose haha. But to your second post, I do intend to keep one colour scheme throughout lol. @BoltThrower: I suppose I could try taking my models to someone more experienced but, where I ...

Well take heart. Its tough to get models to the standard you want. I start and restart paint schemes all the time until I'm happy with something. My advice is that if a unit is coming out well, churn out as many models as you can from that unit until you get sick of it. Then continue the trial and ...

What the heck. I spent like £30 on my Prince on Griffon just because it'd be unique (Most people use dragons) and now everyones gonna be using a damn Griffon. I guess I gotta get an Eagle then... This'll be cool though. I'm annoyed they mixed the High Elf and Skaven sprues though. With Skull Pass, I...

Yo guys, I don't know if anyone in this section of the forum remembers me, but I used to frequent the Painting & Modeling sections until exams took over. And, well, basically, now my exams are over, and 8th has been released, it's Warhammer time again. And with it comes an inevitable problem whi...

Isn't that convienient? I mean, there are doomsday predictions for 2012 all over the place...

Maybe this is a sign!?

Now... all they need to do is give space hulk the same treatment (a proper conversion of the board game... none of this real time stuff) and ill be a happy man. Haha. I always wished they'd do the same to Warhammer and 40K. It would make playtesting army lists so much easier. Instead they screwed i...

Dude thier awesome seriously.

Can't wait to see a finished product.

...you ask your scantily-dressed significant other to comment on your latest Chaos Lord. I lol'd hard :lol: OT: When you spend as much time in GW as you do in College/Work When during lessons/work you're working out hero combinations and army list combinations in your head, since you have memorised...

Yea well since ive already put a solid coat of satin on my army, what im gonna do is in a few years or so when they need re-doing ill probably put a coat of gloss on first then a coat of satin so like wynforth said, u know when they need re-doing. just gotta make sure not to build it up to much and...

Check your PMs

not really that keen on either conversions, on the second one the heads are out of proportion If you're reffering to Grantmepower's second link, then, no, it's not. The proportions are fine. It'd be hard for them to be out, since all he used were High Elf miniatures (I'm assuming) and they are all ...

I don't think it's realistic to say that the government is allowed to spy on me because they would never use that knowledge for nefarious purposes...I think we can all agree that if the ability is given, the temptation to abuse it is too. What I do in my home is my own business, as is anything else...
