Classic Warhammer Armies Poses

So it got above 50°F for the first time this weekend here in Vermont and it was time to go to my summer trim...



I felt I needed to post this just to prove that I don't always look like a half drunk half-asleep bad hair Havin old man.

But either way, I do fit the profile listed above… :). Pretty much four for four, though like Otto my belly is more chocolate related than beer.

Blue
 
That takes years off you, Blue! I had been "bearding up" over the last week or two and feel much better for returning to my usual goatee this morning.

As for the list?

White? Yes
Male? Yes
30-55? Yes - coming up 35
Married? Yes - into year eleven
Kids? Two boys
Disposable income aka more money then time? Not too much money, but even less time, so yes.

Oh, and I'm British and read mythology, Tolkein, FF books and 2000AD as a kid. I am a walking stereotype! :roll: :lol:
 
Allow me to add to the stereotype. I'd say that the typical Oldhammerer is:

- not really an "outdorsy" kind of person. Not a keen athlete, not nuts about "catching some rays", averse to gardening etc.
- not into speedy stuff like cars, motorbikes or rollercoasters
- not partial to crowds or crowd events
In short, a cat person rather than a dog person

- appreciative of the fine things: good food, fine art etc; would take his date to an art exhibit instead of a blockbuster movie
- able to look after himself: knows how to fix dinner, do laundry, keep the flat/house clean...
- reliable with appointments
- still owning more books than video games
- fairly tech savvy and fairly good at maths

Makes sense? Or is that completely off the mark?

Incidentally:
beard: No. Never.
belly: Not anymore. Well, not as bad as it used to be.
short hair: alas, no.
cat: yes and yes.

So, another fat cat owner.

Nope, I'm a farmer and get all funny if I'm indoors for too long

True, I do not see the attraction of travelling very fast

True, I hate 'people'

Nope, far prefer dogs, though we have one of each

Probably, in fact yes. We don't go to exhibitions very often, but that comes with living in the sticks.

Hmmm. I can cook. I *can* do all the other things, but to be honest they tend to slip under my radar. If I was wasn't married I would live in squalor.

Mr Pouchon":2ufivw0p said:
- reliable with appointments

No. I fail to see why anyone needs to be accurate to more than half an hour.

Mr Pouchon":2ufivw0p said:

Yes, I have far more books than storage space. I only have one computer game, Transport Tycoon. Unless you count the Carcassonne app on my iPad.

No. And yes. Don't *get* computers and stuff. I use an iPad, but don't know what goes on under the bonnet.

beard: Yes. Goatee.
belly: No. Not by normal standards, though my skinny parents-in-law think I'm well covered.
short hair: no, though not as long as it used to be.
cat: yes. (But I prefer the dog)

I like sitting out in a Pub Garden does that count?

- not into speedy stuff like cars, motorbikes or rollercoasters
I love my motorbikes, I hang around with members of various MC Clubs and been too Hell Angels events for many years

- not partial to crowds or crowd events
Na I love socialising be in concerts or music events

In short, a cat person rather than a dog person
Wife owns a cat, always owns both ats and dogs

- appreciative of the fine things: good food, fine art etc; would take his date to an art exhibit instead of a blockbuster movie
Nope hate all the above, I like my food cheap and plentyful

- able to look after himself: knows how to fix dinner, do laundry, keep the flat/house clean...
I'm a scruffy Slob

- reliable with appointments
Aye sometimes

- still owning more books than video games
Yes thats true

- fairly tech savvy and fairly good at maths
No and yes

Miles off with me
 
Yeah I'm a bit of a contradiction myself, I'm white, early 30's, unmarried, no kids, book reading, sport playing, reliably unreliable idiot savant with 2 dogs :mrgreen:
 
Late to the table, here's my offering:

Sadly the Fimir are a bit hazy, the mist got in the way! Ti's stereotype has me down pretty accurately too...
 
Very good Fimmster! Hmmm It makes me wonder where the mist is coming from considering how you are sitting ;) :shock:

You look pretty much exactly like I thought you would. Anyone whose miniature company had such an earthy name has to have a beard like that!
 
Lovely pose, bu hey Fimm, watch out, I see some bog rapists photobombing just in front of you...

Do we have enough to make one of those calendars now? I'd definitely like a group shot of all of them.
 
Hmm - not at all what I expected, Mr Fimm. I don't know why, but I got the impression that you'd be a 6'7" barrel 1st XV back-line sort of chap...

Still, very respectable and nice to put a face to the name! I should probably get around to this at some stage...
 
Though this doesn't count as official (due to naked lead :oops: ), I thought I'd chime in. Consider it a WIP army pose.

Not my first choice of army (high elves, I prefer the Empire) but it's the only full one I own.
 
Pose : CHECK
Armour and weapons : CHECK
Moustache : CHECK
Look : CHECK

Apart from paint on the models, you don't need a lot more!

really great WA pose.

I'd really like a compilation of all the pics so far
