Painting some Free Minis from the Warhammer Store

-

A couple weeks ago my partner and I visited the warhammer store and picked up some of their free giveaway minis. Since neither of us run Space Marines, we decided to have a little paint party and try out creative and weird schemes. Here's how they turned out!

Mine was going for a "Marble with gold trim" look, that I'm really excited about, since it was not overly difficult and could probably be used for an army, if one wanted. My partner's was painted in gorgeous pastel tones, and of course with a shimmer effect paint on top.

It was a lot of fun!

Epic-Scale Tyranid Hierophant, But It's Big

Over Thanksgiving break, I was invited to play a "Tanksgiving" 40k event at my FLGS, where folks were encouraged to bring their massive war machines and the largest creatures to duke it out in an immense 5000 point game. Since I'm primarily interested in Tyranids, I only have a random, small selection of what could be considered "Tanks" - A Predator tank and a Thousand-sons conversion of a Dreadnought. I had a blast, but definitely wished I could have brought something larger to bear, and also in the flavor of Xenos. Since then, I've picked up a Winged Hive Tyrant, but I've always gazed at envy at the Forge World Tyranid Heirophant.  So of course I made one!

 I usually don't do terrain but this one just kept coming together well I felt compelled to keep going on it. It took probably three months or so, but that was intermittent in between smaller things. Still, this is probably one of the larger things I've made for a while, and it was really fun!

A few weekends ago (vague because since I can't post things on time ever) I was invited by some very nice folks to play in a Spearhead tournament at my FLGS. Interestingly, I did not know how to play, but they were willing to provide an army and teach me the rules beforehand! I said yes, since it seemed like a nice afternoon. Moral of the story is that's how they get you - I had such a great time that I picked up a box of Spearhead Skaven so I could continue to play with folks.
