Nothing fancy here, just a cleaner paintjob than I usually do. I feel that red is a color that cannot be punished so much with weathering and it is shown better that way.

This is the 2nd Centurion squad I am painting and I can safely now say that I really like the models no matter what everybody says. On top of that I think red suits them really well, although I'm not sure how the customer plans on using them with his Blood Angels army, probably allies.

Thats it from me for now, I would love to hear your comments and see your votes on CoolMiniOrNot:

Till next time take care!

It has been AGES since I last finished something I was working on. If you happen to follow my blog you may have noticed that I have started so many projects the past few months, from Fantasy to Greek mythology ... all these will probably finish some day but for now the 40K train got me on board again.

I have just returned from a great Tourney, the results are not important. The most important thing is that I finally managed to finish building some new stuff for my Imperial Fists, and trying a new list. The result of my progress is of course the brand new-love them or hate them- Centurions. 

Tabletop quality guys but they should be ready for today so I had to rush them a bit. Anyways, tell me what you think! 

and finally some music to keep the good mood going! Till next time, take care!

Hello everybody!

It has been such a roller-coaster ride the past month...work and some renovation work done in my house kept me away from anything hobby related. But this is about to change as I am preparing myself for yet another tournament in a couple of weeks.

The new Space Marine Codex brought some shiny new stuff but it also brought a hefty point increase in my favourite Lysander-Termies list. Therefore I decided to update my list and try some of the new toys I have in my arsenal...

This is the final version of my list and after a few playtests I think I really get to like it!

Total Roster Cost: 1850

I would really like to hear your opinions on my list.

This means though that I need to build new things, starting with the brand new, love them or hate them, Space Marines Centurions. I must admit that they are an extremely difficult unit to play, as much as they are extremely difficult models to like as well! But I am determined to give them a chance and I think that the Land Raider combo is the only viable solution to play them.

So I have started to build them, straight from the box, and as always I have tried to make a fancier base. The new round base gives plenty of room for scenic details. A pleasant surprise was that I was finally able to use bits from GW's basing kit with these new bases



So, I would love to hear what you think! Keep your eyes peeled for more!

As always some music for inspiration!
