# About me

Hi visitors!
This is my mostly inactive miniatures account. I occassionally paint Games Workshop minis and post them up here. Although I colect several armies my focus is generally on Tyranids and Necrons. I also have a small amassing of Chaos World Eaters, Grey Knights and random figures here and there. Although I don't play any more, I still thoroughly enjoy painting the figures.
Although I really don't post here that often these days I -am- still painting. One of these days you'll see a picture from me pop up, keep faith!!

You can always check out my far more active account via the link below. There's no minis on that account, just my other artwork, but still you can see what I do normally :D

the hierophant's virtually finished actually, but not standing yet. i'd take photo's but i dont have a camera around at the minute
i've got a winged hive tyrant ready to paint as well, so i've been doing one or two things

shortsonfire79 In reply to thegreatdevourer [2008-03-27 20:00:30 +0000 UTC]

I think you should finish the Hierophant first, its more amazing.

though, that tyrant will be a beastie

Love your tyranid paintjobs, I also think its comparable to 'eavy metal jobs. I'm a chaos player who's building a necron force. Do you have any tips on building a necron force? Anyways, great job!

thegreatdevourer In reply to TheRam [2007-12-19 14:36:48 +0000 UTC]

thanks very much!
well, with limited troop choices you need alot of Necron Warriors. I'm trying to go for a full force, which is 120 Warriors... so yeah, get lots of them. Umm... otherwise just go with you're gut. Oh, and get a Monolith. You're opponent will hate you

Thanks again for dropping by

TheRam In reply to thegreatdevourer [2007-12-19 17:23:01 +0000 UTC]

no problem; what I have now is
1 Necron Lord
5 Immortals
28 Warriors
3 Destroyers
7 Scarab Swarms

I think I'm getting 5 more Immortals, a monolift, and 2 heavy destroyers soon, what do you think? Do I need the Wraiths/Flayed Ones for CC and a Destroyer Lord to help my destroyers?

thegreatdevourer In reply to TheRam [2007-12-19 19:43:09 +0000 UTC]

Yeah you could use either or both if you feel like it.
Wraiths get to you're opponent really quickly and they can dish out a lot of pain and Flayed Ones can use Deep Strike, so you could have one or two Wraith squads rush up to the front line and then drop a couple Flayed Ones in behind them, keep them busy while your Necron Lord catches up

I like your army collection. Plenty of inspiration design wise for my necrons also ^_^

I added you onto my "watch list". If you care to see my necrons soon, I'm going to paint them the Kronus scheme cause it's easiest, and cause Dark Crusade was my starting block for all of this

I'm impressed at how many different armies you have.
and the paint jobs are very nice.
In your opinion, which races are played the least in warhammer 40k?

I wish to enter the hobby.

Well, around here where I live you see very few Dark Eldar and Witch Hunter armies. Not sure why, the Dark Eldar look cool. And I've always like the Penitent Engine the Witch Hunters have...

Lucky Yank. u.u I wanted a heirophant, but double-tax and shipping tax to America means more money than I can get a hold of right now... I guess I'll have to turn to a life of crime. *shrug*
