Ahh, if it's Lightning Claws, and Termies in lightning Claws, you're a fan of, well you're in for a treat in a couple of week's time! ?:D ?:blues:

Today, after I'd written my self-set target of 1000+ words for my dissertation, I finished painting the Apothecary - Dying Marine objective I started several weeks back. ?Here's the pics (sorry, they've come out a bit dark):






Now I've done this I'll be putting the Fire Storm Marines to one side for a few weeks while I paint up (and make) some Inquisition Forces which I'm going to use in the Medusa V campaign. ?Obviously, in between slogging away on my Dissertation, 3 other assignments, and exam revision... ?:/

I'm not sure V - he looks in too bad a state!  :D   I tried to get a better pic of the objective today - still not 100% happy with it, but it's a little clearer.  You should be abel to see it in the post above.

Today (once I'd spent some more time on my dissertation) I started on the Tank Company for my Epic Guard.  After touching up the undercoat  :zzz:  I managed to get ONE done  :/  I was expecting to speed through the tanks like I did the Chimeras... nevermind, I'm sure once I've done a few I'll be rattling through them!  (Blurry pic, coming up again):



I also realised I hadn't posted any pics of this second Guard objective I made.  I finished painting it a week-or-two ago, and today I out some flock on it:



Tomorrow, after more dissertation work  :8:  I'll either do another Epic Tank, or start on some 40k Inquisition Storm Troopers...

I think when the Apothecary comes to claim your gene-seed, that's the sign for Marines saying 'your number's up!'  :laugh:

Thanks for the positive comments, lads!  :cool:

"Come out dark"?!? ?It's a model of a dying soldier... of COURSE it's going to be "dark"! ?:-)

:laugh:  :laugh:  :laugh:

Ha!  Great.  :D

That reminds me of one my favourite bits from the film 'The Royal Tannenbaums', when Ben Stiller's character is visting his brother in hospital after a failed suicide attempt:

'Did you leave a note?'
'Yes.'
'Was it dark?'
'Of course it was dark, it was a suicide note.'

Humour doesn't come much blacker than that!  :D

Today, after doing dissertation work (of course!) I painted another Epic Tank (45 minutes this time, I am starting to get in to doing them!), then I started preparing for my new 40k project - preparing Inquisition forces for the Medusa V global campaign.

I say it a 'new' project, but it's kind of an interim one, as I'll be finishing off my Fire Storm Marine army afterwards. ?Then it's Lost and the Damned... ?:devil:

Any-hoo, I've already got some Inquisition forces painted, including this Grey Knights Squad (I've had these 3 years):



... and 2 Storm Trooper Squads, a Callidus Assassin, and an Inquisitor & Retinue (I'll post pics of these tomorrow).

The army I want to put together will eventually have THREE Inqisitors (one for each Ordos), and as well as the forces I've described above, the following which need to be painted:

- Death Watch Kill Team (which includes 2 Heavy Bolter Marines & 2 Veterans, not pictured)

- Another Squad of Storm Troopers
- An Ordo Xenos Inquisitor (which I converted from a Necromunda Van Sarr leader)
- a Preacher with an Eviscerator
- Inquisition retinue minis
- and a Culexus Assassin.

Que group shot!



Then there's stuff to be purchased or constructed:

- An Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor (I just need to finish the conversion on this one)
- ANOTHER Storm Trooper Squad
- Two Imperial Guard Armoured Fist Squads (which I'll be converting, and am currently gathering the parts for)
- and a Leman Russ Tank!

So that will keep me busy for some weeks to come - I'm still painting my Epic Guard army in tandem (2 Tanks down... 11 to go...)
