hi my name is mark i'm 26yrs old and ive been a fan of warhammer 40k since i was 14.

my main armies i collect and paint are Dark angels and chaos marines of the word bearers although i did dabble in colecting necrons for a time

i'm mostly a painter and converter i've never really played the game as i gave up trying to understand the rules after edition 2 of the game, yes i know the rules have simplified since then but ive never got round to learning again.

i might not know how to play but i do know alot of the background fluff of past and present canon so if you want a question answered i might just know it.

eg. did you know there are 7 chaos gods? got u thinking eh?

anyway i'll post some pictures of my stuff in the gallery once i get a decent digital cam to take some pictures

see ya later

oh yeah i forgot i'm from redcar doh!!

wheres the redcar gaming club?

Hi Darkgod, welcome to the forums.

The Redcar gaming club starts 7pm mondays: Coatham Memorial Hall, Coatham Road, Redcar, Cleveland TS10

We also hold a gaming club here(PC Tech Normanby) on a thursday night 7-10.30pm.

Welcome Darkgod... we mainly play, but I have started to paint a bit now also. Maybe we can learn a thing or two from each other.

I go to the Monday club when I can and run the Thursday one with Taumaul (Gavin).

Hope to see you at one or both real soon

thanks for the reply and for telling me where and when the gaming club is i might just come and see it.

anyway i better be off miniatures to paint an all, i'm currently patiently painting a converted squad of deathwing termies i hope to get them finished soon before the pull of chaos is upon me yet again when they get re-released in sept

we look forward to seeing you soon then, and your termies.

hi sorry i havn't created any pictures of my models ive been in hospital an all so my paintings been put on hold for a little bit

i might put some pictures of them unfinished though so watch this space.

hope everything is ok now, with you, and looking forward to seeing them piccies.

thankyou for the concern i'm fine now, the only problem i'm having is getting a good camera to take some pictures of my models.

no matter how i try they keep coming out blurred and spoiling the detail it's sooo frustraiting!!

so as soon as i sort this problem i'll post them asap

oh yeah forgot just bought the new chaos termies, possessed and spacemarine sets on saterday yay!

thanks to taumaul who i bought them off in pctech redcar oooh i love the 20% off saved me ALOT of hastle and money.

only one problem with the whole experience my beloved word bearers have no special rules or cultists i can thank taumaul for spotting that in the new codex for me but i bet once i get the new book for myself soon i'm sure theres loads more rules that would help me anyway.

welcome back Darkgod, thought u had gone and left us

good to hear ur happy with your purchase...

if u have any questions of rules etc, just pop along to the W40K discussion forums and post there about it.

Happy modeling!

thankyou for the post i'll keep that in mind about the rules once i learn how to play that is.

nearly finished my chaos termies, just little fidly bits to finish off, i've been painting them every night from 7 till 1 since i got them on release date thats allmost a week and a bit ago

just the possessed and 10+ chaos marines to go, still having camera probs so they'll be posted asap

So you haven't played the game yet, at all?

I once learnt how to play edition 2 of the game, you know the one with all the counters but then all my friends stopped playing and then a new edition came out so i never learnt it.

i keep meaning to learn again but never get round to it

just uploaded some pics in gallery, still not happy with the lack of detail but there the best ive done so far, trust me they look better in real life
