Default Something Amazing!!

This is my newest 40k relic. Courtesy of Petruabo from these forums, it is so far my living room center piece, and in my new apartment will be above the fire place.

Whaddya think? It IS GW made, back from the early nineties. A very few were made for each loyalist chapter. This thing is 4 feet plus long, and a good one foot wide.









Below this on the mantle will rest the pieces of my new project I am preparing for GD UK '08.

I love how you're going to put a limited edition, out-of-print poster above the fire place. Anyone else see a potential problem with that?

It looks good though, I say they should re-release them all.

The fire place is GAS, has a chain mail and metal cage (chain skirting, metal cage) and has a good 2 foot wide mantle above it... It should be ok, right?

It is open to all Terrans passing through. It'll have a dedicated bar, a pull out couch, and a game table, standard size. I'll be designing and decorating it with wolfpakcs assistance, and we'll chronicle it's construction here on the forums.

Though you guys might have to forgo being able to crash at my place in the game room. The store's repentia may be needing to make use of it 'til she gets a place. And not that you lot aren't ok, but I doubt you'd behave, yer nutters.

Because your perverted mind would always bring up SLAANESH when i asked you about older armies

But it makes sense for a SW player to have liked BA at some point in time

wow I remember seeing that in my local GW, well obviously not that EXACT one! It was hung up next to the Dark Angels, Space Wolves and Ultramarines ones- very, very limited edition and being as I was only 16 or 17 at the time not exactly within my budget

I would like to put out a call:

Anyone runs across one of these, especially Space Wolves, let me know immediately. You will be very well rewarded.

Your guys wait 'till Xmas when my new project log debuts on what will be hanging up next to this banner!
