Thanks very much for the positive comments chaps! - I know they are not strictly "oldhammer"! Today i make a start on the Genestealers. - Unfortunately they seem to have a lot of the same scenery around them as the librarian (which i have marbelized) which makes me think i have to do that effect over all the other pieces now.. Quite laborious..
those are very nice models. and they have an oldhammer feel about them, even though they're only 5 years old. and, can i say how well you've done them. i'm umming and ahing about whether to paint mine as blood angels in keeping with the game, or as Steel Guard, my homebrew chapter. i want them to look right, but i also want them a part of my army
