Id like to see that actually.

Sergeant Posts: 71 Group: Comrade Member #593 Joined: July 31, 2008	Small update of sorts. I knocked out some WIP test minis for my gaunts and genestealers. some areas will need a heavier wash but for the most part this is what they will look like. Ill probably go back in and pick out their teeth on the final models. I also did the basing on two of the bugs to see how it will work out and im very satisfied with the result. Quick and easy is my moto. (the white rim on the ravener will be painted black, i just hadnt gotten to it) And started basing my FOW brits thats it for now. stay tuned...

Sergeant Posts: 71 Group: Comrade Member #593 Joined: July 31, 2008	WOW my scheme is really close to that. Ive never heard of that lost fleet, wheres it from?

Warrant Officer First Class Posts: 773 Group: Comrade Member #291 Joined: December 30, 2007	It�s from the Laius Rift Campaign, first appeared in the Aussie WD no.310. Here�s a link to it on the OZ GW site: http://oz.games-workshop.com/crucis/laiusrift/default.htm Got some great tips at making subterranean nids (and skitarii) + it has rules for a nid organism that "explodes" out of infected enemies.

Sergeant Posts: 71 Group: Comrade Member #593 Joined: July 31, 2008	Small update time Boy Ive been on a 'nid kick lately. I really should start working on my other projects but nids just look so cool lol. Anyway first up is a shot of my current fex and lictor. A prize goes to the first one to find what ive added to them. Next up are two of newest editions to the fleet (WIP of course). First is a screamer killer. I Modified him a bit to make him stand taller than a normal fex Next is a sniper fex. I could have converted him to have a weapon on either side but i kinda like the guns to one side look. I havnt forgotten my other projects, i should have an update on the titan by this weekend, and I intend to attack my FOW sometime this week. Stay tuned!

Sergeant Posts: 71 Group: Comrade Member #593 Joined: July 31, 2008	Thnx Packe, regarding the base I went for two things, 1. A just invaded nid fleet so the local fauna hasnt begun to mutate and grow yet and 2. something super easy that looks nice.

High Lord Admiral of the Imperial Fleet Posts: 10,751 Group: Super Admin Member #72 Joined: September 24, 2007	Mate, the addition of the red really sets off your scheme. I take it that didn't siginificantly magnify the amount of time taken to paint them? Oh, and I bought that 'Nid codex damn you......

Warrant Officer Second Class Posts: 347 Group: Comrade Member #556 Joined: July 7, 2008	The new red bits bring a lot more life to your models - looks great. When can we see more of the marines?

Sergeant Posts: 71 Group: Comrade Member #593 Joined: July 31, 2008	Marovian- The amount of time it takes to add the red is negligible for the effect i get in the long run. Nids are hard to resist man.. this is my third time playing them lol. if you start em up let us know! xbanditsx- thanks mate, im proud of em. I started on the next 5 marines of Bravo squad so i should have them up soon.
