Dead Terminator on his throne

DSCF8678

I was reading From The Warp and saw his post on the space hulk commission he was painting and well I fell in love with the look of the terminator on the throne.

I did a quick search and I found a few bought one now I am going to  make one of my own.

DSCF8676

I am in the planning stage of this project and I am thinking of removing and or filling all the Blood angel stuff from the model and have it blend in to my army Not to sure if he will be used as a objective marker or have him as a nice show piece.

The other Bits I am  going to work them into a objective marker/s or something not quit sure of them yet

SH_Wallpaper1_1680
I have moved in to my new studio/office and it is nice to finally have a place I can paint and create my new company. I am still working on my large workshop and cleaning that out my business classes have taken that time up for now I have found some one that wants to help me and learn with me and has offered to let me use his garage to work in which will help just having some one to do this with make the process a lot of fun.

   Tomorrow is Berks Spring Assault I am so excited and hoping every thing goes smoothly and every one does there there best,let's get this Waaagghhh!!!! started...

   I have been Working on the certificates for the berks spring assault this last week I know that every one should be happy with them, apart of me still wishes I had more time to do more with them to make them even better. But I will have to be happy with them them as there is not a lot of time to do any thing other then I have done to this point.

   My painting and building projects have been suffering more than I had hoped for but I know after all this is said and done I will be able to do more and have more time to do what I want and not be worried about it.

Space Marine Hold that Ground

CrimsonFist_Captain


The other day I was at a friend house learning more of how to play my army I am going to play as a buffer army in a local tournament Berks Spring Assault coming up this Saturday the 24 space is going fast register now.
We played a mission form the new battle mission book 
I do Believe it was mission 56.Marine hold that ground.
Deployment is old school each take turns deploying the defender deploys in a center circle the attacker can deploy from any table edge. 
I played the defenders and he played the attackers it was a fun game for me not only did I get get some laughs in with this game (dirty Sanchez must  die) I started to really pick up the game and learned how to better my list making and testing skills as well
now that I have played three  whole games and feel I have a better feel of the basic rules I am going to fill my Crimson fist chapter list to 2000 points(I know i will add even more in models) then move to Bagronks boy’z and then get them up to 2000
