Next project? Has to be Necrons!

Nick speaking,

With my huge push of learning Necrons in 8th Edition, my most beloved army in 40k, it just wouldn't be right if my next hobby project wasn't Necrons!

Yep, time for some Lychguard/Praetorians! Hopefully I will be able to magnetise these guys to be both units with all the weapon options. I will of course post my usual magnetising tutorial on them if I am successful.

Saved by Slaanesh! A New Army Introduction

Nick speaking,

I know it's been a while since I teased you with my new army, but now it's time to get the ball rolling for Slaanesh! First a little back story. A few years ago, I was given a huge box of Chaos models by one of my very generous YouTube subscribers. On top of that, I have also been fortunate enough to win a few community competitions, including the Chaos half of the Dark Vengeance box set .Loads and loads of Chaos goodness just sitting in my cupboard, but why so long in starting a new army?

Well, the truth is, I couldn't work out what Chaos God to follow? Bearing in mind, I didn't really know too much about Chaos and their gods back then. In the end I had to make a real effort to try and choose. I started by reading the fluff for all the legions. This turned out to be the right way to go, as I quickly fell in love with Slaanesh and the Emperors Children fluff, I was literally Saved by Slaanesh, or at least, by Daemonettes!

The truth is it was the Daemonettes that drew me in the most, the idea of these Daemons controlling me and my army on the table just sounded like so much fun! Of course, there were no Daemonettes in the big box of Chaos loot I have, so the first thing I had to do was buy myself a couple of boxes of these beauties...

I can't wait to get to work on these models, more to come soon!
