[Archive] Loki's Army Classic Models help needed 21/11/10

Loki:

@ Bolg happy to help, and i am glad that you like the Slayers of Hashut back ground i dont often write the back grounds that i create for my units or armys down but these guys just had to have it done :slight_smile:

clam:

I was sorry that he did not make it in as well but i hope when you see the armies that i was working on at the time you will think it was worth it :)

Loki
Armies .. ? - sounds very interesting ;)

Loki:

I have a rep at my local gaming clubs of producing armies like they are going out of fashion, in the past 3 months i have fully completed 2 armies 1 for 40k and one for fantasy as well as 3/4 of a another fantasy army and half of another 40k army along with some bits for my flames of war.

I have a very short attention span so i work on a couple projects at time so when i get bored with one i more on to another and then back again this is the reason i have amassed 11 fantasy armies in about 3 years of playing :slight_smile: not that this is a bad thing :slight_smile:

Pyro Stick:

Very nice background for the slayers.

Damn, i could never paint that fast.

Loki:

Thanks Pyro glad you like the back ground :slight_smile: My record is 2 weeks to paint an army and that was my 2000 pts daemon army i dont think i can do one that fast again as i really spent every spare second painting, even my lunch hour at work was not safe :slight_smile:

Borador:

Nice army, nice background. Very cool mini’s mate!

Keep it up!

:cheers

Loki:

Thanks mate, i will do , i am looking at posting a few bits on tonight as well.

Also great news i am getting my hands on a CD man of war fleet off some one at my local club this Thursday so expect to see them on here soon as well :slight_smile:

Loki
Cool, what size fleet is it? 1000 points? 2000 points? Make sure it has a lot of thunder rollers in it. Those ships are great.

Loki:

As promised a little update this evening, i have just finished this little guy i think some of the paint might be still wet :slight_smile:

I found him in my local gw stores bits box when i was looking for something to use in my golden hat entry, i did not find what i was looking for but i think i came out on top finding this :slight_smile:

Loki:

I now have the man of war fleet, i dont know how many points it is i am sure the Pyro will let me know :slight_smile:

I got 1 X Great Leveller Battlebarge 1 X Thunderfire Battlebarge 3 X Hull-Destroyers and 3 X Thunder-Rollers with the original card sheets in mint for £25 , the models have never been painted only stuck together so i will be the first to put a paint brush to them.

Its a bit scary really looking at the production dates on the bottom and seeing that i was only 8 when they where made x.x

I will be painting these over the week end so i hope to have some photos up then or early next week

Kera foehunter:

Lucky !!! and what was the Year ???

Pyro Stick:

Loki
Thats only a 600 point fleet.Its practically the minimum legal size. A legal chaos dwarf fleet needs 1 Thunderfire Battlebarge and 2 Ship of the Line Squadrons, which you have, and you cant have more Great Levellers than Thunderfire Battlebarges. So you have a perfect sized fleet to get to know the game. It will probably a 1000 point fleet after you have added Man o War Cards and a Sorceror.

Loki:

@ Kera the year was 1993 :slight_smile:

@ Pyro Thanks mate for that i new you would be able to help :slight_smile: Just have to get them all painted up now, have been looking forward to this so cant wait to get the spray can out and get to work :slight_smile:

Pyro Stick:

@ Kera the year was 1993 :)

Loki
lol i was only 3 when they came out then. But its not as bad as some of my other models. A large portion of my cd army is older than i am.

Loki
Well so far i have only painted one of my cd man o war models, plue a great taurus. It took me so long as well. Hopefully the thunder rollers etc will be much easier to paint since they are about half the size of the thnderfire battlebarge. But then ive still got 3 fleet boxes of cd man o war models to paint You are definately going to be finished before i am lol.

Loki:

3 in 1993 you young whippier snapper :stuck_out_tongue:

When i play ubertechies CD army nearly every model in his army is older than me :slight_smile:

How big is your fleet then is you have 3 boxes it must be a big one ?

Pyro Stick:

Loki
I bought one of Ubertechies models on ebay a few days ago. It was one of sjoerds sculpts so its not older than me.

Loki
Well if each fleet box has 350 points of models then i guess i have 1350 points worth of models but after adding Sorcerers and man o war cards plus an extra Ship of the Line Squadron (ill probably use death galleys as thunder rollers or something) it will be a 2000 point fleet. Ive written up my Fleet List on Doom Harbour if you want to read more.

edit: Looks like my fleet list is only 1500 points. I didnt add all my great taurus' and ive only used 2 thunderfire battlebarges instead of the 3 that i have.

Loki:

I did not know that Ubertechie was selling his models? do you know if he has sold his whole army or just the odd model ?

Thats a good size fleet then :slight_smile: i will have to check out Doom Harbour now that i have some man o war stuff :slight_smile:

Loki
I think he was just selling off a few models to see how much they would go for. He only sold the sjoerd blunderbuss and a renegade. The renegade went for £11.50 or something and the blunderbuss went for about £3 each. Cant wait to get mine.

Loki:

I hope he does not sell the army as it is a really great one to play against and see on the battle field, he is very good with his mailing of things so it should not be long before they are with you :slight_smile:

Kera foehunter:

lol Pyro 3 ha ha i was 7 and stole my first pirate ship !!!
