Hi there!

I'm an old gamer from the age of Space Marine. In fact it was, for me and my group of gamers, it was our first miniature game. So, as you can imagine, not having a clue about painting these little men produced some pretty unimpressive results. Basic 2-3 colors with some old Revell hobby paints...
20 year later, browsing trough this forum and the very, very high level of painting got me rummaging trough old boxes for unopened blisters and repainting my first ever epic 40k army: an ultramarines task force built around the 2nd and 4th battle companies.
Starting september, after much repainting and some conversions, this is what i've got so far:























My apologies for the terrible photos. Looks like catching these little buggers on film is a lot more hard than it seemed when i took the photos. And i can't seem to be able to store these in a decent size in photobucket, either. Anyone's got a suggestion?

Just about finishing the ultra's (hoping to get the last motivation i need from the toeg . Just 2 thunderhawks, 3 tact det and 4 predators to go. After these i'm planning to go on for my next e40k army in need of redoing: Saim-Hann

Looking great! And good to see another Space Marine veteran I have found that using a camera with a reasonably high resolution and taking the photos from a short distance away, then cropping the pics down with an editing program, produces good results.

Challenge finished (sort of). Just 4 Predators short of finishing my Ultramarines force. Here's a group shot. much better now, thanks to cheesyRobMan's advice:



I'm now starting a Squat army, inspired by some of the great minis from Spartan games. I just couldn't resist using those prussian zeppelin as Overlords
The problem is stopping myself from painting all the WE in a go and leaving the squat infantry for last. Next TOEG: Squats

Looks good ... I like the darker blue !!!
