Anyway, finished reading Soul Drinkers yesterday (I only bought it about 5 years ago) and it was pretty good, although the ending was obvious.

I just finished painting a [url=http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m1910682a_99809915007_BlastedStandards_873x627.jpg]blasted standard[/url] with the Thousand Sons icon. I think it looks quite nice and it will be replacing the chaos star on the back of my Defiler.

[QUOTE=Dick Tracy;33388079]The stock of Apple is almost 376, for comparison.[/QUOTE] Sure but how many shares are out. That's a big thing as well. Has the share price been growing, stagnating, or falling? Kinda all important stuff.

[QUOTE=Dick Tracy;33363172]Well... What is the colour scheme for the rest of your guards?[/QUOTE] I don't have a guard army. It was just something I want to paint and put on my desktop. Maybe eventually I'll start a guard army.

That scream at the end :v: oh god

I'd bone it.

[QUOTE=RayvenQ;33396964]Why no painted bases, i mean, alright, better than unbased but still.[/QUOTE] Do you happen to have a list of painting tips that you've been giving out through the thread? Stuff like thinning paints and stuff. To lazy to look through the entire thread for each tip.

(or pm on here)

I really don't think going after the biggest unit without any previous painting experience is such a good idea. Better to start small, and see if you're really up to the task ; Painting a Baneblade is a LOT of work, especially if you want it to look good.

[QUOTE=RayvenQ;33396964]Why no painted bases, i mean, alright, better than unbased but still.[/QUOTE] I think the black looks fine on the edges. But what color would be better? One that matches the sand or something else?

I think he means you're supposed to paint the sand too

Yeah the sand and the rim of the bases. and really, the colour is up to you, do you want ash wastes, desert? urban environment, and yeah, generally you paint the sand and the tradition is to paint your base rims brown, although personally, i make it match whatever i paint the sand like. Will go into more detail later, as it is, i'm going out now.

Ah. I would do that, but the sand matches the board we play on. Guess I need to pick up some sort of tan/brown paint. Back to painting my Defiler.

Mistakes are easier to see / clean

Well, if he buys say a chimera, which is cheap then he wouldn't have wasted too much money on the hobby. Besides, the Baneblade is gigantic with thousands of details, an imperial guardsman might be smaller, but there aren't more details on it. In fact, there's a hell lot less details. So, start simple and small, because it is better to learn the fundamentals (steady hands, attention to detail blabla) first and worry about big cool stuff later.

Sorry if this is getting annoying, but I think I gonna get [url=http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat550004a&prodId=prod1570027]this[/url] Yes/No?

[QUOTE=darkrei9n;33404234]I have a small space marine army that I have painted and plenty of orks to fuck up with experimenting.[/QUOTE] Ah awesome, show us some pics! Remember, put the focus on the camera on the miniatures, roughly 20-30cm away from them, with white paper/cloth (white anything really) as a background. Light should come from slightly behind the camera so that it doesn't distract the camera. For Baneblade, I'd love to see something like this: [url]http://www.flickr.com/photos/mrkyle229/4927704091/[/url] [editline]23rd November 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Scar;33405216]Sorry if this is getting annoying, but I think I gonna get [url=http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat550004a&prodId=prod1570027]this[/url] Yes/No?[/QUOTE] It's never annoying, it is supposedly a great kit for starters, two good armies that you can build upon and all the necessary stuff to start playing. Good buy, good sir!

[QUOTE=Wingedwizard;33400836]Ah. I would do that, but the sand matches the board we play on. Guess I need to pick up some sort of tan/brown paint. Back to painting my Defiler.[/QUOTE] plain sand on its own looks okayish, and I'd say paint the base rim either vermin brown or Dheneb stone in that case.

I'm suprised at the latest Tau Rumours. Rumour says about 18 new Units, unlikely though. How many did Necrons get?

I was looking for some good Eldar wallpapers , but i didn't find any... Anyone got some good ones?
