+++ Happy New Year! +++

 

I hope you all had great parties and fun. No one around me got injured due to fireworks, I'm happy to report. Only three days left on my vacation, and so much to do. With today being as wasted as I am, , I have only two days of possible hobby time left in my vacation. Dunno if I can deliver anything finished, but at least I got the bases for the artillery and dreadnoughts I have lined up.

 

Also, I got myself a Storm Talon (because I'd love to paint it, mostly) and Sergeant Telion.

I know he's an Ultramarine, but I got him for two reasons:

  1. He looks like me. Obviously I don't walk around with a bionic monocle, but like him, my hair grows on the wrong side of my face. And if I stuff his cheeks a little bit with greenstuff and paint his beard in a pepper-and-salt colour scheme, his face is nearly identical to mine.
  2. He allows for an ultimate cheese combination. If he's your warlord he can give any unit within 12" rending. Enter three Quad Heavy Bolter Rapier platforms....  tee hee hee.

@Black_out: Cheers buddy! Yea, I had a lot of free time. Two more razorbacks and I'm done with the tanks for a while. 

 

@Soric: Addart Valten it is! glad you like the corvus guy. :)

 

@The Hydra: You'll have to wait for them, but with a Caestus incoming, a breacher unit is practically mandatory, no?

 

@Teetengee: Cheers for spotting that, teets. Will do. :tu:

 

@MrBear: Haha should have known of course.... Still glad about the fitting coincidence.

 

@Barabbas Sogalon: Alright! Another great fitting! Are you okay with him like this, or do you have any suggestions for Sergeant Kolan? Perhaps his heraldry? - I was planning to do his banner in the black and white quartered scheme that fits the Fifth Company. But in terms of iconography, you're most welcome to offer suggestions. Mind you: I have the Imperial Fists Transfer sheet, so there's no boundaries. :)

 

@SkimaskMohawk: Haha cheers. Glad it worked out that way. :)

Dude, great job on II squad. I especially enjoyed the fluff on Ernust, kinda explains why a battle brother is wearing a Mk3 helmet with laurels. And on Telion, I did not know he did that. That combination could be nasty.

Thanks buddy. Yeah Telion has the storm of Fire Warlord trait, which allows him to nominate any unit within 12" of him and give that unit rending during that phase. It´s restricted to units with the Ultramarine Chapter tactics though, so it´s extra cheesy as I´ll be painting both Telion and the rapier unit as Imperial Fists, but counting them as Ultramarines. I´m calling the combination ´Dutch Cheese´. ;)

IS THERE NO-ONE ELSE???

Alright gang, it's been a couple weeks since I allowed everyone to name a marine or character in my 1250 list. Almost all slots have been filled, but not all. I realize that most of the regular visitors of this thread have contributed, so I´m appealing to all the not-so-regulars or new-comers here: please pick a marine and comment a name!! :)
 
There are 19 (nineteen!) marines that await their deliverance from anonymity!!! WHO DARES CLAIM THEM??? (seriously, though: I'm kinda desperate :ohmy.: )

@codystuart: Swiss then. Sounds more appropriate indeed, with the added flexibility. :wink:

 

@MrBear: AHA! Membership is free and mandatory, no? 

 

@Grizzly_bear: He'll be black-and-yellow, mostly! 

 

@Midnight Runner: Hey buddy! Glad you like the pose of the leviathan. For its massive bulk, it offers a surprising amount of flexibility (especially when you cheat with spacers in the joints :wink: )

 

@kizzdougs: Thanks bro! Glad you like your duder.
