Hi All

after a terrible attempt at this back in 2012 that lasted all of 3 months I am going to try and attempt a TOEG Log.

for this first entry I am logging where I have got to with my collection which has become a bit of everything wih most needing the bases finishing off and a few needing some extra units/formations adding to complete.
The original goal was to build a 4k army for each of the races me and friends play in epic scale for Armageddon.

2012 saw a lot of work done getting units painted over a short period before ill health knocked me sideways and it has been a while to recover

the good news is I now have a good excuse in reduced vision to explain the quality of painting you will be seeing

my goals for this TOEG will be

1) to finish off basing the miniatures shown above
2) to add a few bits to a number of the armys to get them to 4000 points
3) the main goal - to paint a 4000 point blood raven army

almost forgot as a test to see if I could handle painting in 6mm still I picked up a few proxie tyranids (got a friend moaned we didn't have any). They turned out a little cartoonish and apparently don't look scary enough but they are starting to grow on me for some reason.

so for june 800 pts roughly of tyranids (great start, first post and already off topic)

Hi!

I agree with Rastamann, the color scheme on the tyranids is very cool!

the model was created by a guy on shapeways called absorber and is really nice up close, a bit more hr geiger than tyranid but fits well. first 3d print i have painted up and except for an incident trying to dry brush that showed the print lines it was a joy to paint
