OK while I've got everything out, I thought I would take pics to help me inventory my stash. ?Knowing you guys are freaks for pics (as am I!), I thought you might be interested in them.

Understand that these are untouched collections, ready for turning into full armies now I have mostly finished up my Imperials. ?But which one to do first....

This is my Nid force bought last year. ?The Harridan and BioTitan have nice paintjobs but the rest in pretty much untouched. ?Its a small force indeed and needs lots of additions to make it a viable one (I only got 3 sprues before the archive closed down...).
Tas's Nid Army

This is my Chaos force. ?Lots of Chaos Marines (I got 5 sprues and a big bag in a trade), minor demons and some trade off old SM LRaider Mk1s. ?Coupled with the 15 "spare" IG sprues I have for cultists and traitor PDF this could be a solid core of an army now.
Tas's Chaos Army

Of course, there is also a brotherhood of Evil Squats in there just to add flavour!

I have some Tau, but that 2 whole FW bags right now - 1 x Pathfinders and 1 x Firewarriors...

Orks to follow!

Ok, the Orks.

I got many of these in a job lot bundle deal last year and while I think I did very well, most of the plastic stuff has been spray painted by colpour codes - and with enamel paint too.  As you can understand I just cant face that right now.

As you can see there are a heap of plastic and metal minis and I would have no idea what kind of points total there would be, but I guess a lot (can anyone be more accurate?)

Tas's Orke Horde

Heres a close up of the multiple boxes (!) of infantry.  Its all in great condition and there everything I could want in there i guess

Ork Grunts

And here are the 2 boxes of buggies and vehicles;

Ork Buggies

And finally I thought this blast from the past might start a few trips down memory lane as well... :D

Old Blisters

So not as flash as the photographic extravaganza yesterday but there you go.

My next army?  Well I just cant face that Ork mound and they have never excited me much as a force.  I'm still deciding between Chaos and Nids, though both collections will need some boosting to meet the mighty Imperial Force I can field :p

see ya!

Blisters from AT era... Ahhh... the memories. I remeber seeing dreadnought blisters for AT the first time. I thought along the line "who's ever going to paint something THAT small". Shows I hadn't seen anything yet.  :p

Great pics Tas! In all of the threads.

Say, weren't those SM1 era superheavies in the Chaos pic? Interested in trading...?  }:)

Thanks Guys! You've now seen the LOT thats taken 15 years to collect (holy crud is it really that long?) though there has been some serious time in absentia!  So dont expect any amazing phots from Tas in the near future... :;):

Thos AT era Blisters are just too precious to open- maybe they need to be in the GW Museum in Nottingham?  :laugh:
(a cool place to visit BTW)

That was 2 Baneblades and 2 Shadowswords to beef up the Chaos hordes, though they are nasty resin knockoffs aquired somehwere along the way.  thats why they are in for Chaos.  I do have 3 Mk1 Shadowswords that I may be able to part with though Mojarn, PM me

I should really do soemthing withh all those orks, but I cant face that enamel spray.  Metal mini stripping is one thing, but infantry?  :oo

Hi!

Indeed Tas, its been many years. Its been 16 years since the first advertisement appeared in WD in 1988 and in early 2005 it will be 16 years since AT the first version of epic was released.

A LONG time for sure.
