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! ? ?
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... ?

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... ?
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...)
