Necrons for the Win! Judgement Day!

Nick speaking,

So judgement day is nearly here! All I have left to do are the bases on this set of Necrons. I have had a lot of fun painting these and have tried to make them fit in with my 'old school' looking army as best as I can. I painted the Lychguard to match in with my old Pariah models and I have to say I am really happy how they came out...

Showcase post coming soon once all the bases are done.

Saved by Slaanesh! Spellcrow Noise Marines and Overdue Update!

Nick speaking,

Wow, just realised it's been nearly two months since I posted about my new Emperor's Children army! I suppose the truth is, I haven't done a lot of actual work on the army that I plan on painting next year, well except for planning what I am going to do with everything I have...

I did manage to build twenty Daemonettes, and I definitely want to get more of those at some point. Other than that, I have been concentrating on the Noise Marines. As I paid for nothing on the table in the picture above, thanks to some very kind donations and a few wins on YouTube giveaways, I thought I would open my wallet and invest in some Spellcrow Pleasure Marine upgrade bitz.

To be fair, the Spellcrow stuff is actually really well priced, and OMG such good quality, especially compared to the GW Noise Marine upgrade sprue! If you haven't heard of Spellcrow then you can check out their stuff here, in the meantime hear are the bitz I got from them...
