Vile Green Slime

Shortly after the arrival of those two beat up tanks, the supporting Chaos Marines came staggering back in, obviously having had a tough time of it.

Not only was there serious disfigurement of their armour colour scheme but the paint seemed to have thickened in places and been erased in others.

Many also returned with missing shoulder pads or even limbs.

Worse still, the enemy seems to have a new weapon as they had a vile green slime crawling up them.

Sometimes this weird stuff had reached their knees and even clogged weaponry.

Medics are trying to save them.

(The first of the tanks should be out of maintenance soon)

Battle damage

A couple of Chaos Marine tanks have just rolled in for repair.

As you can see, they are badly beaten up and the paint job must have taken place under heavy fire from the enemy.

Various parts have been left behind on the battle field and the tracks have been badly shot up.

The commander of one has a glazed expression and is gripping the butt end of a weapon, the rest of which seems to have been shot or blasted away from him.

A bad starting position but I'll see what I can make of them.

Imperial Defense Lines

 I hope you've all missed me.

Sorry about the big gap. Big software problems. Still only half sorted it out.

The shop was a long time closing as David and I had lots to do all through January.

I hope many of you picked up some of the bargains as we sold off the remaining Games Workshop kit at half price.

I miss you all coming in to show me what you've been painting and I'm still looking for a place that youngsters can use as a club.

On a Monday evening, fortnightly, I do go down to see some youngsters at Kitebrook School who are keen to paint models and perhaps get playing games.

Meantime, my grandsons and I have been painting their Christmas presents, the Imperial defense lines.

Henry also received a huge army of Chaos rough-necks including two tanks. More of that in my next post.
