yes... but they can only have 2 in total, so they should be easy for you to neutralise, especially as tau. Your basic fire warriors gun will wound all dark eldar on a 2+ dont forget.

the queue for the prorder stand was as long, if not longer, than the normal FW stand, and with both stands sharing tills (or till, i only saw one :/ ) it didnt matter. it seriously sucked. but hey,...
eh, I was there- no entries this year, but I have next years sorted. I got lucky with FW and got there in the first 10mins, before the scrum had too much momentum. It was alright, but failed to meet...
agreed, very good haul.
may i enquire how you painted the black cloth on your greatsword, 'twas amazing, and i need to paint a nuln handgunner soon :D
congrats again, rosac

Hey hey guys and gals, Im returning to CMON for just a few more months before vanishing again due to real life constraints, but for the moment Im here and I am starting to paint my golden demon...
And yet, after my 6 month long hiatus, i was naive enough not to expect to find a thread about boobs on the front page of the website the first time I returned.
ah well, rosac
In the latest WD, you see the boars from other angles with less plasticy paint jobs and they look a LOT better. not many options on the sprues though, except for different boar ears... :(
rosac
The orcs look way too big for the boars IMO, although I do like the trolls, even with their freaking huge hands...
Im doing a night gobbo army soon I think, so the trolls may appear on my painting...
Thanks guys, Ill post some pics of the marines Ive got done, as well as the ones on the go (A command squad, an unbuilt/washed FW Iron warriors dread waiting to be converted, a captain, and 3 tanks.)...
Hi, I'm rosac. Some of you may remember me from such threads as the GD 2009 Uk thread, the rosac WIP blog, and the rosacs very naughty demon thread.

very nice start to the conversion guys, I hope to see you gun up the bikes accordingly :D

rosac

Thanks guys- Im probably gonna either leave this mini for now and carry on with my other prjects, or just get him to a better standard.
Bit annoyed with the lowish score, but he, I wasnt...
Here is my entry to this years GD UK- A necrach vampire. Although the pic hasnt been verified yet on here, I will show you a pic from photobucket, to see what you think.
Cheers to all the guys...
I have a saturday job and Thomas the Bakers, and Im an air cadet, which is nothing like hippies.
mannion
I pretty much left due to AS levels.
Im not dead tho!
Mannion
hmm... im very impressed.
Next year my pretties, I will be on that page :twisted:
rosac
starting mine 2morow, school and GD knocked me back miniwise.
mannion
seriously- can you tone down on the bosoms on these minis? Its getting stupid now.
Mannion
why is the nurgle guy riding a crumpet?
mannion.
Gah! dont bring that up again squig, I wasnt even there and I heard the tale.
my necrach got nowhere- but hey, I had a great time, meeting the guys, chatting to phil kelly about manly sideburns ETC.
will try and make the next PB meet, and I will paint up the free mini I got...
yep, he had to wear the glove of doom.
im so very happy for you the atmosphere was electric around the PB guys, especially with SOMEONES tendency to shout \"I love you Ben\" at innorpertune(sp)...
I had finished 2 days ago- now just sorting out my group of \"Followers\" as I am responsible for about 6 under 16s on the bus. Ive also got me Mp3 sorted out for the trip too.
rosac
sorry if this has been said before, but is there a meet at GD? Im gonna be by meself if I dont met anyone...
also, entry is 99% done, only a purity seal top to do.
rosac
My necrachs nearly done, although I may need help with the last details.
cheers
rosac
This happened to me. My head teacher, during my 6th form interview, just said to me: \"so, would you like to do critical thinking then Tom?\"
and marked me down for it before I replied. Ah well.
...
I see you have subtly killed this thread... intriguing.
I actually overachieved in english :P I got 2 A\'s in it, when I was predicted b\'s.
In total, I got:
4 a
4 b
2 c
1 p.
make of that what you will.
So, its THAT time of year again. I will be buggering off to my school to see how well/badly/o.k I have done in this years GCSEs Anyone else with their results should post them up.

a york shop tip here- for black orc skin, statrt w/ charadonite granite, highlight w/gobbo green, and fine highlights w/ gobbo green+ Bleached bone.
rosac
guild wars: a free MMORPG.
Its good by yourself, but the guilds are what really make this a great game. If you prefer PvP, go for factions, PVE, go for nightfall. I have all 3 of the campaaigns.
...
same as me, except I\'m picking up my GD piece today ( a necrach vampire w/staff) and I am going to start a rogue trader army afterwards. so yeah, its all quiet on the northern front.
rosac
I\'m going by myself this year, and I am entering WFB single.
I will definitely make the meet, although I\'ve got a seminar at half two (hey, it was a free gift after all :P)

Other things that boost my self confidence:...

My fave is still the one with the gory sword- although I prefered the sculpt of it shown in a WD showcase of mike andersons work.
rosac
Same here :) although, I\'ll still need L plates at that time...
But empire armies sell so well, regardless of over expensive price, didn\'t you realise that?
Then again, I\'m one to talk, im doing A Wood elf army.
