Todays update is all about the start of my Word Bearers, given I've been off work the past week I've been getting the first 10 tac marines built:
I have a bit of an embracing Chaos theme with these guys, I've sculpted the odd bit of the chaos style banding onto their armour and mixed in the odd plastic chaos part. I don't want this to be too ott or I might as well just do a plastic army but it adds some character.
Traditional Word Bearer features such as parchment have been added along with a sprinkling of the forge world WB heads I picked up at the weekender.
I have a bit of a plan for these guys, well a plan formulated with Nife, we both plan on getting a small 500pt section of army painted up in time for the weekender next year. To that end I have whipped up the little table below to chart progress:
Me being organised is quite a shocking sight I must say. I will however be adopting this approach with Deadzone too to try and spur me on to get a strike team fully painted in time for our next meet up.
The word bearers above have now been sprayed up in a red basecoat so expect some progress on them in coming weeks
In my often infrequent Music recommendations I received these 2 albums for my Birthday and can happily recommend them:
I've waited a good few years for a new Keep of Kalessin album and this hasn't let me down, very progressive and experimental Black metal.
