Wow, you know it's time to paint when you get rep for just painting a test model, lmao. Thanks for the tips, Prince of the Night.

On my Black Armoured minis i always primed them onthe sprue with armoury black and then after i put them togetheri hit them with the GW black.The armoury Black is real dull so its good for a base coat and the GW has a little more shine to it,then i always hit them afterwards with some black Ink.But know since the Fellas here taught me about Wall Mart Black spray paint for 99cents i dont use armoury any more.This has worked for me for a while as you cansee in my LOD WIP Pics in my sig.
The WM primer is awesome,you just gotta shke the ship outa it lol!

Hmm, I'll have to test that WM primer out, Warchild. The stuff I used might be ok with better basecoat, might try another test model tomorrow, still gotta try and finish that termie.

Right, another zerker. Wow, I really gotta dust that table!


I'm thinking about trading off my bikes and going with 3 squads of Raptors. 2 main reasons. I hate building bikes. I do however, enjoy building Raptors. I like Nurgle bikers, but I think I'd be ok with 3 six-man Raptor squads. Maybe a Nurgle Raptor Squad? I have some pretty cool bits I was gonna use on the bikers anyway. Or I could do a Red Corsairs Raptor Squad, give them the SM jumpacks, like they were just turned. What do you guys think?

Hmmm. I am liking the RC Raptor squad more and more. Maybe I'll use those Nurgle parts to build another DG tac squad, as I need to finish one anyway. That would give me two
DG squads, and a Bezerker squad. Gonna keep the other 3 tac squads Black Legion though. The only problem I have with getting rid of the bikes is I use them to TB and DS my 10 man shooty termie squad. I guess Raptors could serve the same purpose, as I really don't wanna DS the termies too far from my main force.

Yeah, I know. Haven't been able to work on that termie, trying to get those stinkin zerks finished for a game next week. Gonna have to box it all up soon, going to look for a new place tomorrow and the next day. Probably going toward Tenn., that's where most of my family is now. I screwed up on the head trying to paint the little skull, so I gotta fix that.

Well, I will get to the bikes. Dang it guys, they are gonna need a lot of work. I have played a few games with them though, and they are excellent for DS units in. The only thing that worries me is if they change the Toughness 6 rule and I use a couple of choice DG stuff on them, then they are no better than any other Bikers. I got finish my zerks first though, I have put them off for soooo long. Also thinking about making a Disc of Tzeentch (from a Bloodthirster base) for the cool metal Sorcerer I have. Still gotta add up the points cost, I want it to be a cheaper alternative to my Daemon Prince. Oh, my good pal Belial is trying to improve his GS skills, and is making me a Great Unclean One. I'll post pics when it's done, although I'll probably have to paint it *sigh*.

*EDIT* Just got this one built.

Correction, I have a massive amount to paint! Thinking about making a Disc of Tzeentch for my Sorcerer. I need to pratice with GS first though. I'm using the base of a Bloodthirster. Right now I'm working on Chosen. Dang it, if I ever quit being poor, I promise to paint. I like painting, but right now all I can do is build, which is alright, since I'm playing large battle pretty often, though it's been about 2 weeks since the last one, since so much is going on. I guess I'll break out that termie, since I have the parts to replace him. As I said, when finished the termie goes to Hairy. I'm not sentimental about it, and he can probably give me some good advice seeing the model firsthand. Besides, he's a fellow Black Legionnaire (put down the spacepups, Wookiee, and return to the dark side!). Not to metion he's been very generous to me. Matter of fact, I will paint some on the termie tonight.

There is a Disc of Tzeentch bit in the fantasy line of models. If you want to look at it for inspiration or buy it.

Right, got the termies head repainted. It's almost done. Working on Chosen at the moment. I eagerly await yer new Chaos, Hairy. As for the Disc, still undecided. I kinda like the GW one.

mybe you can do a small conversion for your disc like gluing a base to a flying base and a little simple GS work to it.

Well, I got a Heavy Bolter CSM done for my Chosen, but I'm having a hard time aligning the arms (it's the old Havoc model, with the cool HB) I'm soaking the arms in acetone, cause I screwed up. I'll see if I can get it together tomorrow and take a pic.

*EDIT* Just got this one finished. Man, I love Chosen! I'll try to get the HB one finished tonight. I have another almost finished, but am awaiting parts. Hope ya like it!
