Quick word in your ear - Marine Repaint

http://thatguyjames.net
Just a quicky, I have gotten bored with all these green marines.
Time for some more green, Simple Green that is, and a lot of marines in the bath.

As such I have also re-written my army a bit to fit these changes, and allow me to up the anti a little for the new army paint job.

First, list.

HQ
Librarian
 
Elites
10 Terminators, 2 Cyclone Missile Launchers
Dreadnought (Multimelta)

Troops
10 Tactical Marines, Meltagun, Missile Launcher, Rhino

Fast Attack
Landspeeder Typhoon (Typhoon Missile Launchers, Heavy Flamer)
Landspeeder Typhoon (Typhoon Missile Launchers, Heavy Flamer)

Heavy Support
Predator, Heavy Bolter Sponsons
Predator, Heavy Bolter Sponsons

41 infantry (30 scoring), 9 vehicles, 1750 points.

Now as for the scheme? Howling Griffons. Something easy to paint.

I have dug out a Terminator, my own AoBR captain (soon to be just a sargeant) and I will be getting a start on finding out just how hard these guys are to paint.

"WIP photos coming?" you might ask... I'd like to think so but who knows.

Da Horde Returnz

I feel terrible for not keeping the blog going, but once more life takes over.


I am going though the 6th month of my #2 bub's pregnancy (no, I'm the Dad not the Mum, but I still have to live with it), a new car we picked up on Friday, starting a new job in 3 weeks and a whole host of other stuff that really is neither here nor there, but all adds up to - I get 1 hr of painting every other night and I haven't seen the value in using it to write a blog post.


Anyway, without further ado, the reason I have been painting is so that I can re-complete the MVB list I am running for this year's Tourney Season.

0/10 Comp, here we come!
