Sticking my Decimator together, aw yea. Tricksy bastard it is too. The legs were hard to get into the correct poses for the glue to dry and to give enough rigidity to support the bulky body. Now to decide which legion to affiliate him with.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Thu Oct 25, 2012 10:40

Well, there's only one choice.

The Royal British Legion.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Thu Oct 25, 2012 11:23

Got a Tzeentch Disc Rider in the end, nice one too. Just bidding on a few familiars to odorn his base with as he'll look a little small on his own compared to my other mounted Chaos geezers. Especially the Khorne and Slaneesh Champions, they're whoppers.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Thu Oct 25, 2012 21:32

I decided Night Lords. I like Night Lords. Good books.

Also just finished Fear to Tread. Reet good were that. Pity the Blood Angels won. Imperial scum.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Fri Oct 26, 2012 9:46

Lord of Change is being a naughty little monkey. Third attempt now to get him stood nicely on the base. Due to his weight and his centre of balance, he keeps working himself loose.

I might need a binding spell at this rate. :nerd:

Dimrill · **Posted:** Fri Oct 26, 2012 9:50

Pin vice drill a leg, snip a paperclip into it, drill through base, et voilà.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Fri Oct 26, 2012 9:55

Yeah, I've thought of doing something similar if the last gluing doesn't work.

It's because it's the version that looks like he's taking off/landing rather than having both feet planted down.

I'll be ok.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Fri Oct 26, 2012 9:57

I find that nearly everything works its way lose over time. I pin both legs of everything now. Paperclips!

Zardoz · **Posted:** Fri Oct 26, 2012 10:25

This effectively only has one leg.

God help him at the effectively arse kicking competition.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Wed Oct 31, 2012 6:38

Quickly now. Won't stay that price for long.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Wed Oct 31, 2012 13:25

The Moon face and Jester Familiars turned up yesterday, they look great, so small too :luv:

...another 5 varieties on their way this week including the walking spell book and hooded scroll bearer. Just the ticket for adding some interest to my Tzeentchy bits.

That is awesome!

Zardoz · **Posted:** Mon Nov 05, 2012 10:30

Excellent stuff, Dimrill. Those lightning effects must take some time. You must nearly have a Night Lords army by now.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Mon Nov 05, 2012 10:36

Tar. Nah, only completed five Night Lords pieces. Mr Boo, Conrad Curze, You on a Jetpack, and my two Atramentar termies.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Mon Nov 05, 2012 10:42

Hmm, I thought you'd done more than that.

Best get busy ready for when we start our WH40K-play-by-mail next year then.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Mon Nov 05, 2012 10:45

I'll just send you random severed Space Marine limbs in an envelope.. Imperial scum.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Mon Nov 05, 2012 11:28

I'd settle for a backpack.

Really want to get stuck back into my nerdling but I've just been so busy lately. Hopefully things will be quiter on the run up to Christmas

Dimrill · **Posted:** Wed Nov 07, 2012 13:47

Started painting my Juan Diaz sculpted Daemonettes last night. Wonderful models. Why they replaced these with the plastic set I have no idea. Same goes for the Horrors of Tzeentch.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Wed Nov 07, 2012 14:51

You tried the new base coat citadel yellow, Dimrill?

Is it nice and opaque? The old one is like a glaze, takes loads of coats.

Have I asked this before?

Dimrill · **Posted:** Wed Nov 07, 2012 14:53

I haven't, no. Still got almost full tubs of Bad Moon, Sunburst and Golden Yellow to get through. I fucking hate yellow. Like gold it really needs a white undercoat to work, otherwise you can end up slathering it on to try and cover the darker colour.

I haven't ever found a decent yellow paint, including enamel ones. Vallejo model colour is particularly bad.

Paint it white first is the best bet for yellow paints.

Very true, but it still takes three or four coats of vallejo even then. And it's the only yellow I have!

Yeah, thinking back to the last time I used any I had a bit of a struggle. The Revell Aqua Color I was using seemed to have a different characteristic than their other colours too, sort of gloopy and sticky even when thinned down.

You're bloody great at this nerdlinging thing, Dimmers. Top work.

Has she got six tits?

Dimrill · **Posted:** Sun Nov 11, 2012 19:46

Yep. Daemonette, innit.

Grim... · **Posted:** Mon Nov 12, 2012 12:16

I'm trying to think if that would look good on a non-purple woman.

Hmm.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Mon Nov 12, 2012 14:05

I call him Nick The Leech.

Ooh new painted stuff from Dimrill.

Good job(s), bro. Like those Daemonettes, so much nicer models than the plackies.

Is that a GW or a FW Psyker?

Grim... cross your eyes and watch Total Recal sideways.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Tue Nov 13, 2012 11:22

Tar. Forgey Woild psyker. They come as a double. Finished the other months ago.

I appear to have some silicone plastique and casting resin. hmm.

He immortalised me too.

But did he pick up on my Great Unclean Ones moniker?

Probably

Supposedly the new Talisman PC Game is available either tomorrow or Wednesday.

It is now out...downloading the demo now.

Cor Talisman. Now that's a name I haven't heard in years.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Mon Nov 26, 2012 19:02

Bugger, Maelstrom Games have gone out of business. That means their Warmachine Bane Legions beauties will soon go OOS to go with OOP.

Morte · **Posted:** Fri Dec 07, 2012 16:34

Hmm interesting, Creative Assembly are now doing GW games. I believe this to be very good news.
