sturguard Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Hey folks, Apparently at some point I stopped by Bolter and Chainsword and created an account (lucky me). But to be honest, I spent more time over at Warseer and Dakka. I am a long time SW vet and started my first SW army back in 1990, sold it off a few months later, gravitated to Dark Angels, assembled those models, sold them off- then went back to Space Wolves in the early 1990's. For the better part of 25 years models have come and gone from my collection, I have had Tau, Chaos, Eldar - but the only consistency has been my SW army. I keep adding and plodding along. I have scoured the internet for bits, conversions etc and have a pretty big force. So, the direction GW has taken the past few years hasn't appealed to me, I don't agree with the old adage that bigger is better and for me, the game was better when a carnifex and wraithlord were the two biggest dudes on the block. Recently the place I went to game, the Game Parlour shut down, so I haven't had any games in awhile (so I keep modeling). Anyhow, I have the urge to at least meet some like minded gents on the internet and discuss the army I love (if I cant play), so I am thinking of making B&C my new home. I really like that there seems to be alot of folks here that share an affinity for SW and I dont see alot of negativity and trollers in the SW sections (I don't really care about the rest). So- if this the correct forum if I wanted to share some of my conversions, army, etc? Thanks and looking forward to chatting with some of you.

Fytharin Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Welcome! The short answer is absolutely. We have a couple of forums here that are devoted to showing off your models and we are constantly debating over rules, lists, tactics, etc; I like to think this forum has some of the most respectful players on the internet. Granted we have our grumpy days but we have enough Long Fangs here that help keep everyone in line, this really is a special group of people. Another popular thing that people will do is create their own Work In Progress forum where they will post pictures of their projects and finished models. Lets people who are a fan of your work follow you or offer advice. if you plan on posting a lot of pictures of your army I would encourage you to make a WIP thread of your own, browse through the recent topics to see what people are talking about and if you have a particular thought don't be afraid to make your own thread! I don't think I've seen a topic go unresponded to here in a very long time. This has been a popular thread for projects that people have been wanting feedback on, you may want to check it out. We also have unit specific threads as well. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311339-what-are-you-working-on/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/320687-long-fang-wants-a-place-to-share/#findComment-4343442 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fytharin Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 What if it is a picture on my desktop it doesnt have a URL does it? You'll have to upload it somewhere.

Jarl Kjaran Coldheart Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 it looks like Fytharin already rolled out the welcome mat, so grab a drink and make yourself at home. any questions, fire away, we're usually pretty decent. we love battle reports and pics, army background and generally anything of Fenris. WLK oh, I use photobucket myself to upload pics Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/320687-long-fang-wants-a-place-to-share/#findComment-4343524 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sturguard Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s609/Brian_Adair/Markers_zpsmaaipdev.jpg These are my home made Space Wolf objective markers- wish the photos were better. The two ones in the back are awesome, they have a battery underneath which lights up the wolves eyes blue and the runes on the other. The chaos lord model was always one of my favorites but I knew I would never use him in a chaos fashion, so this is supposed to be a status of a helmeted Leman Russ with his spear (that later fell into the hands of Tzeentch!) http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s609/Brian_Adair/Lone%20Wolf_zpsajbjunxo.jpg I need to get a better picture, but this is the first Lone Wolf I made. The daemon head is an old inquisitor bit (from the game Inquisitor), the colors dont really shine through, but you get the idea. I'll get some more pictures up tomorrow- maybe my bike squad which were some of the first models I painted.

SW1 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Welcome. I've found the B&C to be a welcome home from home hobbywise. There's lots of nice nooks and crannies worth a visit. Just a few of my favourite areas are here of course and: The WIP area is good to get a more indepth look at people projects ... http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/forum/62-works-in-progress/ There's a great Q&A area for all those hobby questions ... http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/forum/5-general-pca-questions/ If you want to know what's happening in 40k land and associated hobby the news area is worth a look ... http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/forum/137-news-rumors-and-board-announcements/ It's worth a rummage around when you have the time to find some cracking content.

sturguard Posted March 25, 2016 Author Share Posted March 25, 2016 Wish this picture of my Logan conversion for a Rune Priest came out better. I have a Rune Priest on Bike, in terminator armor and the normal power armor model. I am going to have to try out the Rune Priest formation if I ever get a game in. http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s609/Brian_Adair/Rune%20Priest_zpsnbtscgco.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/320687-long-fang-wants-a-place-to-share/#findComment-4345632 Share on other sites More sharing options...
