    Emperors Children by a bad monkey

    How do chaps and chappettes. I am bad monkey and I am a very slowy builder, I have been hobbying for almost 20 years now...man that makes me feel old, and have only ever completed 1 army. I also find getting the motivation to start painting quite hard to find. So I intend to use this as a bit of a boot up the **** to get an army done to a standard I'm happy with.

    So onto the toys, I'm goin for table top quality and not decided yet how to base them.

    First up the first 3 chosen, 1 icon 1 asp champ and a plasma gun.

    As you can see I'm not goin to be winning any golden demons, but after a break of about 4 years I think they look ok. Sorry the pics ain't the best, off an iPhone. They still need highlighted and based. Suggestions for basing would be appreciated, as well as any c+c. I plan to update this weekly, but we got a baby on the way so it might not always be possible.

    Cheers.

    So far they're looking good. Bigger photos would definitely help.

    If this is from after a 4 year break, you deserve a big pat on the back. I didn't paint anything this last summer and I could barely remember how to hold a brush when it came time to paint.

    As you can see still wip. Still trying to work out what way I'm goin to base them, I may just go for the good old fashioned woodland bases with bits of dead elder.

    So it appears you have discovered the true driving force behind this current drive for intergalactic domination. Just don't tell you know Who.

    Good luck with the Noise Marines, Fabius Bile was pretty good in his time, but you sound like a better Doctor...



    Yes, that was terrible.

    Been a long time folks, been busy preparing for the pitter patter of tiny feet so not had much time to paint toys.

    But here's a couple of asp champs. Click image for larger version.

    Plan to get the 2nd squad done in about a week, I'm also working on hero quest at the minute. So much easier to focus when you have more than one project going. I'll set up another plog for the gw stuff once I'm happy with what Iv done.

    Ta very much, I'm fairly certain if it was a decent picture you wouldn't be saying that lol.

    But I'll take the praise. If I get a bit of time later on I'll put up some pics with different angles.
