In fact i have allready modelled and basecoated a small force; 2 tactical detachements, 1 assault det, 1 devastator det (which make for a "battle company") plus a det of termies, a terminator supreme comannder satand, and some vehicules.
The warhound and the Supreme commander stand are done; i am in the painting of the 2 tactical dets; the "basic" converting, ie tabard, as i put those on every troopers, took me about 10 minutes a stand, BTW when i did the converting when i had much more time; i had to spend some more to convert some sergent (pretty straight conversions, replacing the Power fist with a sword on this one, repositioning the bolt pistol on an other one, etc) and heavy weapon guys; but in fact i didn't found it so long. The painting take me much more time per stand...

sigh. I now realize that I will be old and dead before I finish painting my troops, much less converting any of them.
On a different note, I am getting a Dremel rotary tool for Christmas, anyone have any nifty ideas or uses (Epic related of course) for me?

I try to do my best on all my Epic pieces. My earlier work is good but I started putting more details on the later models because they have more detail !  I borrow my friend's Dremel, it's great ! But when sanding F/W Resin, it can be quite messy ! Dust everywhere and you must wear a mask. The resin dust is harmful. Go to a Sears Hardware Store and get a mask made for sanding. And I even got goggles there too. And if possible do it outside or in the garage. However, the Dremel makes thing a lot easier and quicker. Iblisdrax, do you live in Cincinnati ? I live in Youngstown, far North of you.

No, I live in South Point, Ohio, about 2 hours from Cincinnati. Easiest way to find it is to find Huntington Wv, and then look right across the Ohio river to South Point. It is cool that there is more than one Buckeye on the forums here, I was beginning to think that everyone was from England

if we are talking active posters then it seems to me about 45% England, 54% rest of World of which half of them are US
what about the remaining 1%
well that takes into account those posters not of this world and we know who we're talking about...
