First Dark Eldar model - Archon

Assembled here for my new Kabal is my first Archon. The new range model never ceased to impress me with the fine details, and with the new finecast being released now, its an opportunity to my my hands on those fine resin. Meanwhile, here's a newly assembled, but not based yet, Archon for your viewing. More will follow shortly!

Ohh did I mention that my Space Wolf blog is up and alive again? I'm putting together some HQ for my Claw.

Cheers!

New Fire Prism

I'm trying to catch up with the latest GW models and after being away for so long, I'm rediscovering some really cool new release of the Eldar army. One of my favourite is the new Fire Prism. I just pick up this baby this morning and hope to start on it soon. Being such a unique and beautifully sculpted model, maybe I'll try to use the same motifs I used for the Serpent.

A new Kabal arises...

As promised, I'm back and this time, with some motivation for a new army. I'm starting a Kabal and still in the process of research to get some ideas on a theme for the dark kin. I just love the new model range and the 2nd release of the models are just too hard to release.

More to come soon!

Oh btw, I'm starting on another army in the same time. I love switching between armies to keep my mind fresh. Its gonna be the blood angels this time!

I'm back!

Hey all!

Yes I'm back after a long time dissapearing from the blogging world. There has been much going on with real life issues and I've finally fine some time to go back to one of my hobby of miniature and painting, not to mention being busy on my other blogs.

I was just going through some of my old inventory and I came across some of my really early miniatures, when I first painted when I started this hobby, my first squads of Guardians. I noticed that they were not that well done compared to my later models and took some time to add more highlights to them and proper basing, just to bring them to speed with the rest of my collection. It was fun and somewhat symbolic for me to complete them :).

Over the years, many of you will agree with me that the model selections and the power level of some of GW release has increase significantly to encourage more powerful models to be added on the tabletop. As I was touching up my older models, few things were going on in my mind. Whatever happen to small, friendly games, with really basic models, bring those power play down a few notch and enjoy the game for the same of the game itself.

Anyhow, you'll be seeing more from this blog in the near future as I will be turning my attention to the dark kin, yeah... I'm starting a Kabal soon!

Anyhow, good to be back and stay tune!

War Walker Squad Completed

Well, I did say I wanted to finish painting my Eldar inventory, and here they are, the last batch.

I've been collecting these guys over 3 battleforce boxes, never had any use of them. I'd like to try them out though with perhaps a more static list compared to my regular jetbike army list. The weapons are all removable, without the need of magnets. One of these actually took longer than painting say a SM dreadnought, as it has more surface to cover and finner details to pickup. I'm looking forward to paint up my other Sentinels for my IG to match up these guys across the table :)

Again, CC welcome, thanks!

Completed Autarch on Jetbike

A recently completed HQ on jetbike. I kept it clean and less complicated compared to my farseer and focus more on picking up the detail of the sculpt which is rather well detailed. Hope the green serpent on red is not too Christmas like :PAgain CC welcome, thanks!

Completed Shining Spear

Hi, it's been a while since I've done Eldar (was busy finishing off my marines). Here are some pics of my recently painted Shining Spear squad. Just a simple color scheme. Thanks for viewing and CC welcome. Thanks!

Happy New Year!

Hi All,

Hope you guys had a wonderful Christmas!

I know, I know, its been like almost forever since I've put anything onto this blog. I've neglected my eldar way too long now to be ignored so rest assure, I will put some paint onto those models that I've stockpiled all this while.

I was busy finishing my 4th Company Ultramarines and I'm glad to report that I'm 2 models away from painting all my space marines inventory. Below is the link to my other blog on the progress. Overall I think my average on the models quality are about 6.5-7.0 on CMON rating. I'm pretty satisfied with it. It took me about 6 months to complete the army (in between work, family and moving around).

As if I don't have enough on my hands, I just got hooked to Space Wolves!

Yep, as I am about to finish one space marine chapter, the next one will certainly start soon. I've just started another blog dedicated to this army and will post up more as soon as I've planned an army list and my next order purchase.

So what about my other armies? Well, as for my Imperial Guard http://byzantum.blogspot.com/ I'll be continuing where I left, and even better equipped now with more bitz from my much collected space marines sprues. I'm keen to start off again with some heavy armour. I've got some OOP models like hellhound and demolisher waiting to be assembled. Soon, I'll order some reinforcements like Valkyrie and perhaps a centerpiece for my regiment(a baneblade perhaps?). I think I've experimented and practiced well enough with my space marine mech, and gain more confidence in painting imperial vehicles with the right weathering effects.

I've not been updating my Tau blog as well.

I have been moving several places lately, due to work and commitments and have not a chance to get in touch with local gaming communities and certainly no gaming activities and battle report for months. Hence there is no posting for an army which I've completed 6 month ago. If time (and budget) permits me, perhaps I'll get my hands on some of those juicy Forgeworld battlesuits, especially the recetly released XV-9.

A travelling hobbyist like me who has been travelling with his gear is rather good at being a pack rat. I have a reservoir of newly painted models which i can't wait to give them a baptism of fire as soon as I am able to settle down to a more permanent location and to get to know a gaming club and play some games. I look forward to next year as there is prospect of this happening very soon.

Until then, have a great new year everyone!
