| Very cool, really like the rail gun conversion, hadn't noticed it was a tau part :P Try huffing your breath over the applied supper-glue/other part before sticking them together, added moisture. I'm more and more convinced by the baking powder method. Baking powder + Superglue ~ poor man's green st... |

Nice. Yeah, it looks like a Jenga endgame.

They really need to work on their stacking rules.

| Thanks for the support guys. :) Carrington - I think you might be right about the Nids and how to tackle them. Still looking for the technical term -- pointillism gets close, but at least per Wikipedia is really directed at color. But I remember an art-class exercise in which we were not allowed to... |

| Thanks for all the big thumbs up guys! :) Regarding the scariness of Nids - they are one of the hardest races to paint, I am trying to get their 'feel' down, trying to work out the best way to paint them. Still practicing on those guys! As always a pleasure to look at this work. A lot of the other ... |

| BL, while you may be correct, the British started WWII flying in formations of three. From what I've read, this was basically a failure -- the two following planes spent far too much time watching each other as well as the leader. Took a while, and a fair amount of loss during the Battle of Britain... |

| With 6 commissars in a nine-unit army, the bigger question is where not to put your commissars. That said, I particularly like Commissars in scout formations, or in hard-to kill units. Very often I get a lot of mileage out of the one remaining fearless sentinel or rough rider. Somewhat less often, I... |
