On Apoc's call, my 2011 contribution will be 3000 pts of Skitarii, using the NetEA ATML list.
My army so far:
9 Hypasists + Tech Lord - 375 pts
5 Praetorians - 250 pts
6 Macharius tanks - 700 pts
4 Gorgons - 300 pts
6 Forge Knights (at least) - 375 pts
12 Sentinels - 300 pts
All of the above have been based and primed, but I don't which units I'll paint up for the August target.
Colours will be dark red and brass/gold with white markings and trimmings, classic AM. The Knights will be painted old school Griphon Legion with light grey base dappled white and blue trimmings with deep yellow machine parts.
I have most of my models at hand, using old knights, robots and dreadnought, kev-style infantry and otterware tanks. I'm still looking for suitable ordinatii and executioners, so tips will be welcome!
Pics will be following shortly!
And here's most of the stuuf in all its unpainted glory! The Knights are currently residing in my cupboard at the gaming club, so they'll have to wait.
I always base my vehicles for gaming reason (middle of base and all that), and the larger DC engines goes on a 40mm base, while I'm considering a 30mm washer for the Machs. The bases will be sorted out with some gs obviously.
Lovely robotty thingies
My Tech Lord - a mate had some spare SM characters, which was just perfect. I've managed to get some plastic TMs as well for the rest of the Tech Priests.
Praetorians - I need to make more of these
Hypatists - I have enough for at last 10-15 bases more, thx Kev!
Only problem is that I'm currently painting up the rest of my Eldar, but I've arranged for an airbrush tutorial tomorrow, having a quite expensive airbrush for 6 six months in the drawer unused
So things should be able to move along a bit faster, since I always brushed paint on - also primer and varnish...
Cheers,
Thomas
