Project updates and status

1) Space Wolves.

By far my favorite army.  My Space Wolves army is all but put together.  Occasionally, I'll find myself tweaking it here and there leading to the assembly of new models.  The army as a whole requires a little work on the bases and then it’s off to applying a base coat.

2) Chaos Space Marines.

My second favorite army.  My Chaos Space Marines have been benched for the most part.  The models are together and I really enjoy using them, but I'm just more focused on other armies at the moment.  With any luck, I might be able to break them out when I assist a few friends in practicing for the NOVA Open.  They sure do look great and I spent a lot of time on the models. 

3) Eldar.

My Eldar have always been a solid army.  However, I don't think I've ever been satisfied with the units I've used.  I've either wanted to add certain units or wanted to get rid of others.  I've bought the models and vehicles to put together a Mech Eldar, but have not had the time.  To date, I'm considering selling the models.  Especially, the older models.

4) My DIY Space Marines Chapter - The Sons of Ultamar.

Originally, I wanted to start a new chapter that uses the basic Space Marine Codex.  Before long, I found myself building an all Terminator and Bike army.  Therefore, I decided the purpose of this army would be to assemble, paint, and play the weird and unique marine lists (Deathwing, Ravenwing, etc.).  So far, the 1st Company (all Terminators) has been assembled and is ready for a base coat.  The 2nd Company (All Bike Army) needs to be assembled.  I've assembled the Commander of the 2nd Company.  I believe his picture is viewable on a previous blog posting.  I'm quite happy with the way he has turned out.

5) My Pre-Heresy Thousand Sons Army.

The army is nearly complete with the assault squad remaining to be assembled.  This army features several custom parts and conversions.  Simple, but effective.  The Army uses the Blood Angels Codex as it seems to be the best fit for a foot slogging army.  I'm happy with the army, but it does seem to lack some soul.  Perhaps by using the Blood Angels Codex, the army has an identity crisis.

All in all, I'm in love with most if not all of my armies.  I'm going to try and get some more pictures up with in the next few weeks.
