Chaos Cultists

These Chaos Cultists are from the box set 'Dark Vengeance' which was sort of left over when the shop closed.

I really enjoyed painting these guys.

The variety and freedom is unusual for 40K

 I had fun with the bases too.

I thought of street warfare and Heather suggested the dark grey of tar-mac.

There's chunks of paving sprinkled about.

I tried to change the look of some of the identical twins.

A knife wielder briefly lost his hand but the medics are real dabs with poly-cement and he was back at the front in no time.

The guy on the left is more upright than his twin due to a little shaving beneath ground and a spare piece of 'park bench' that was laying around.

I've tried to go below ground with the one on the right where a small shell must have landed.

As I said - fun to paint.

Last Special Edition

Wow! That was close.

Young Theo rushed in after we had sold the last two special edition Dark Vengeance box sets this morning.

Luckily, I hadn't grown too attached to the one I'd set aside for myself.

(A bit of hay fever was the cause of the tears and they weren't sobs, they were hiccoughs)

Yes, that's it folks. From now on it's the standard edition we'll have in stock.

I guess I should have ordered at least ten more!


By the way, are these guys your? Terrible isn't it. I've already forgotten who they belong to.

Dark Vengeance

Dark Vengeance is back in town.

Yes, we now have a stock of the Limited Edition new box game again.

However, it is not only a Limited Edition, it is also limited in numbers.

If you want one at Christmas, get in here quick or call in to see the latest White Dwarf to find out what the fuss is about.

(I also have my copy for you to peer inside. 20p per look!)

Dark Vengeance out of stock (for now!)

The last 2 sets of Dark Vengeance have gone so more on order.

Meantime, I'm making slow progress on Lewis's Land Speeder (Storm).

As you can see, the bulkheads are not glued in place yet, just propped up.

I'm painting each piece separately.

Those buttons and dials are way off perfect but they'll do.

Dark Vengeance success

I would imagine that the queues are everlasting, outside 'Real' Games Workshop outlets for we only have two of the new box set, Dark Vengeance, out of the six we had.

That's just one day's very quiet sales!

Of course, I bought one of them!

Some very interesting visitors came in and we hope to hear from them with photos of their models.

Meanwhile, young Andrew called in with two models which will appear here tomorrow.

White Dwarf - Dark Vengeance

The new White Dwarf went on sale this morning and it's already nearly out of stock at Cotswold Bookstore. I wonder why.

Could it be that it is packed full of news about the 'brand-new 40K box game', Dark Vengeance?

With its Dark Angels v Chaos Space Marines theme, its all new Helbrute model and Chosen and Cultists on the side of Chaos and Terminators, Ravenwings and character rich Space Marines on the other, this is a box set of class with models all in high detail.

The mag includes pages of 'Eavy Metal' examples and 6 missions for the combatants plus news of a custom designed case for Dark Vengeance models

I think the most interesting addition to the box is the new tutorial which will help beginners to take to the rules quickly. This is something that has been needed for ages.

And lots, lots more, of course. One not to be missed.

PS Almost forgot. A limited Edition Interrogator Chaplain model is included in earliest box sets so get a move on.
