Just be glad you don't live in a soulless farming area. Not only am I miles away from anything, its next to impossible to get a game of 40k on without having to drive for an hour. plus its full of wanna be "California types" who forget they live on dairies instead of Orange County. On the other hand, i loves your models, do you use Optimus as a Gargant or a Looted vehicle? And do you use Shockwave as a Riptide?

I may as well live in the middle of nowhere when it comes to getting a game in, I'd rather play at a house with friends than go to the local GW and game, unfortunately none of my friends have their own armies and I only want to use fully painted figs, I'll get 2 armies complete eventually!

The prime isn't mine unfortunately :(
The shockwave was just something I did for display purposes, I have quite a large collection of the "Classics" style figures (along with a fair few 3rd party figs), G1 transformers in general kinda saw me through the 80's, I didn't fit in too well with the local kids (now I know why!)

HA! The Stars have aligned! ( meaning I had a Camera, My model, and Internet access )

So have a look and tell me what ya think.

I call it a Deff-Dreadnought. Silly name, I know.
It's only one model that has been Photoshopped like this at the insistence of my mother. Coming soon to an Internet with you! A picture of this model Painted!
Have fun!
Most people are like Autumn Leaves, scattered everywhere. The rest are like diamonds, pretty, precious and rare.

Looking awesome so far!  Can't wait to see it painted, unfortunately I've only got my iPhone for pics at the mo, and it isn't really that fantastic at getting close ups on small things :(

Soon though!!  I'm attempting to give up smoking weed so hopefully I'll be a productive little bunny to keep my mind off it...

Neat. I used to play 40k and kept several armies. I'm into Warmachine, Hordes, Malifaux, Dust, and Infinity now. After GW and privateer press I probably won't be buying into any new mass combat games. Skirmish games seem like a far more affordable concept for me these days.

Hopefully this works but it's a painting commission that I completed for some tabletop quality figures for an imperial guard army. http://photobucket.com/albums/b75/Harliquine/FrederickCommision

Nice work, really liked the scratching on the Russ :)
Though I did spot a Chimera in there which could of down with paint being thinned down a tad more...I've been using airbrush/spray gun to get a light, even coating.

So I found some pics of the last lot of stuff I was working on, Dark Vengeance and Forgeworld based nurgle army, still very much a work in progress mostly...

I wouldn't say I "play it" (present tense), but I certainly used to love playing (past tense) when I was younger (around 2nd and 3rd ed era IIRC) and I'd *LOVE* to get back into it again :D  I started getting back into it again a couple of years ago but then we moved house and this place is *TINY* so there's literally nowhere for me even to get my stuff out much less actually work on them :(

I was never that good at the game itself (lost far more than I won lol) but I loved the painting and modelling side of things, as well as the lore.  I've still got my Slaaneshian Chaos army packed up complete with 2 full units of Daemonettes, the Forgeworld version of the Keeper of Secrets (this one) and an Emperors Children Sonic Dreadnaught (this one).  Also made some pretty wicked conversions using Sisters of Battle for a Noise Marine unit and Daemonette heads on a couple of my Terminator squads...

...Lol as I said in my introduction post here at Susan's: I've only put two and two together recently about my gender, but when I look back at stuff like this it's pretty damn obvious the writing has been on the wall for *YEARS* :D

When I (*HOPEFULLY*) move out with my best mate sometime next year, I (and in fact - *WE*, as he wants to get back into it too) will get it all out again and get our armies back on their feet.  One of the first things I'm absolutely *DYING* to do is build a pair of Chaos Reaver Titans in the same sort of ballpark as this gorgeous thing:


(link to the guy's project)

Obviously that one's Nurgle so I'm going to Slaaneshify them with the standard pink+black colour scheme, Slaanesh iconography and Warp Amps / other sonic stuff (considering putting a small pair of bluetooth speakers in them so I can actually play music from them!  How cool would that be? :P ).  I've even got names for them: "Rhapsody" and "Harmony".  Fitting, right? ;D <333
*Hugs*

Great looking models. I played in 4th and 5th edition. I have completed elder and grey knight/sisters armies. I have tons I thought looked cool, but never got them painted. Although I recently got a wraithknight and I will paint it. I don't know if I will ever play again tho. Have any of you ever tried heroclix?
Be the change you wish to see in the world

I went through a Heroclix Phase I have a big box of them stashed away somewhere and played it with some people I don't see anymore, but can never get any of my friends to play it :(

It imploded here too after going strong for 10+ years. We play home games of clix and x-wing here. That's about it tho. Everyone gave up on 40K. A lot of us bought infinity, but work,kids,ect. Everyone is too busy to play.
