oileanach Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Hi guys. My first inspection, kind of my way of saying helo and thank you for the many tips I've picked up lurking! Anyone remember this wee guy? That's his original enamel. Back when Airfix dabbled in such alchemy... 'bout '84, as I recall. I'd been painting a few minis for my kids when I found some of his buddies. They were probably worth something, still in their original packaging, but I really couldn't resist the temptation. So, a quick dab with some GW acrylic and Vallejo varnish: It's kicked off my interest again. I bought a few bits and bobs, here's the first batch: And to give an idea of the scale, for those who haven't seen any GW minis in the flesh: Thanks for viewing, comments and mickey taking welcomed. Don't worry, your Golden Demon's safe for now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charley420 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 looking good buddy, soon there will be enough of us 40k fans on here we could perhaps claim a group build in the name of the emperor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonas_415 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Very nice! I'd be up for a group build. My next project is a Forge World Leman Russ Executuioner which is on its way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charley420 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Sorry guys what does a 'group build' involve? Loads or a few like minded modellers who set themselves a timelimit to complete builds based on a theme. so at the begining you would post up a picture of your unbuilt kit to prove that it exists and its unstarted if you wish you can post progress updates along the way so we can see how you are doing. and once its done you post a few pictures of the finished product. then the rest of us vote on who's we think is the best with the winner getting either a prize or just kudos or both hope thats clearer than mud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oileanach Posted May 7, 2012 Author Share Posted May 7, 2012 (edited) Sounds like fun! I've got a speeder (Storm) on the back burner- could I use that? Bearing in mind I've still got the jump troops to finish, plus a couple of character minis and some unrelated 1/72nd stuff on the go...

model_insania Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 A group build would be for the greater good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charley420 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 well officially group builds are supposed to have a set date have a look on the gb section, but i guess us 40kers could all just agree to somet between ourselves. I have a strom and a box of space wolf terminators to get done and my squad of bloodclaws to finish casting parts for, thats along with my dreadnought and ork megadread crikey my to be finished list is getting quite long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Vale Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 I could be persuaded too, I've got lots of Dreadfleet ships plus some other stuff which needs painting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oileanach Posted May 17, 2012 Author Share Posted May 17, 2012 I'm still not sure where to stick completed minis. I think I might settle on here, since the next lot will be in a vehicle... For anyone interested, the second batch of RG are here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Love those old models! And the new ones too, anything 40k gets my vote A group build should definitely be on the cards I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
