Both armies are really nice. I've a nid army all boxed up that's just waiting for the day I get round to it! Your marines, what kind of points does that come to? To someone who hasn't played in over a decade it looks pretty small? Or is it just about right to play an average game?

Heh. Or you can leave them in the vault and sell them when you retire; By then they should be able to fund your pension.

Marine armies are generally small (elite troops and all); This army is all right to play a 3000 point game, which is what we usually play anyway. There's almost 4000 points worth of units, so there is some room for variation:

Summer holidays and business at work can really cut into the painting progress. But, it isn't entirely halted.

First, a formation of Land Raiders and an escort Hunter:

Second, a formation of Tactical marines, with two Dreadnoughts and an Escort hunter. They would typically be fielded without Dreadnoughts, for normal maneuver warfare, or without Rhinos, for a garrisoning forward AA site.

Sigh. I just now notice that one of the tacticals is facing the wrong way. I'll have words with their Brother-sergeant, but I don't think I'll be redoing the shoot.

Thanks for the kind words, it certainly helps to find the motivation again. Coming up - assault marines with an Interrogator-Chaplain:

Those look great StM, especially like the LRs with helios.

Thanks, but that's actually just a Hunter attached to the squadron...

Moving along, with an alternative thunderhawk assault - trying to find a useful purpose for the rather nice Dreadnought minis:

Super crisp. You tape or just that good with lines?

Impressive work with the split colours at that size.
