    I can tell the Egyptian themed project will be a highly voted one, many TK fans here (Including me). I actually have a few spares from them but not a lot.
    Will be a slow one due to a lot that needs to be worked on but if it ever comes to reality I will defiantly post pictures.

    Egyptian-themed Lizardmen would be particularly interesting. Perhaps Tomb King allies are a possible thing to consider? :woot:

    More Beastmen is a good thing too. Might as well use all those wolfy bits you get from the Wulfen kit to really convert them into your own creation. Are you planning to use your Beastmen in AoS or Fantasy? Because if you’re aiming to use them in the latter then membership of the Coven of Lustrian Beastlords awaits!

    More Tyranids are also welcome. The Hive Mind’s presence on this forum also needs to be expanded!

    Yep, that's interesting, to say the least. :)

    I don't know if I will ever go back to them (or to 40k at all), but nids were my first GW army. I played them exclusively in 3rd and 4th ed.

    I used to play Tyrannids. Back in… [LoR gets a sudden deep feeling of age] ‘94…

    I had Eldar and the ‘Nids. Good times. My brother had Space Marines and Orks.

    I... spent 3 days browsing random crap on ebay and bought some Ungor and a secondhand BoC chariot.

    I always like second-hand purchases, are you sure you won't use them in Fantasy? Because if you decide to do so then membership of the Coven of Lustrian Beastlords (CoLB) awaits!

    Possible chance to ally, sadly started collecting TK so late in the hobby so I only have Warphinx, named characters/heroes, Carrion and some Stalkers, some stuff could be hiding away but these lizards can fill some gaps, the old Skink models can make some nice archers and they are already kitted so less work.
    Then I did find myself buying an Apophis on Etsy so some other non GW kits will be finding their way into the army/project.

    Most of my Beastmen currently sit on square, being that I don't play as much as I used to so it really fits anything really yet I find myself missing Fantasy, maybe because of the colour choices in the books and all the rank building, until a model decides to topple down a hill. Hopefully Old World will fix that sense of missing. Then I don't get out much and my nearest store is a GW one.
    I am actually using a chaos chariot to stick Gorthor on cause it felt he needed something that really shows him off. Aesthetic-wise it might stick out but I just like the Gorebeast on the chariot.

    I was, and it's an unofficial Horus Heresy version.

    Haven't done much with it this past week due to a week-long sail, but I did get a game in with my Salamanders fleet last weekend at the 2000pt range.

    Scenario deployment kind of screwed me over. LOL

    Well, I may be digging some extra imperial models out of storage. You may yet have a fellow on the forums

    Hey, remember that Grav-Russ I was working on a couple years back?

    I finally sorted out the turret issue.

    20220603_204523.jpg

    Turned out I was being a loony and didn't think to use magnets at the time.

    The Repulsor hull turret mount was just big enough to accommodate a 32mm base, onto which I mounted two stacked 5mm magnets in the center. As luck would also have it, the inner diameter of a 40mm base's underside matches that of the baneblade turret ring, so all I had to do was trim the ring to the turret's base, mount the 40mm base on the inside of the turret, and superglue another 5mm magnet in its center.

    20220603_201708.jpg 20220603_201734.jpg

    As for the rest of the baneblade kit the turret came from, I'm using it for a Stormblade kitbash.

    Naw, I like the BoC in AoS. I've got piles of Orcs and Goblins minis that I'm collecting for 8th Ed/WFB/Old World whenever that releases.
