These photos bring back memories. In the photo above, you can see my hobby table back in about 2004/2005... I was heavily into Warhammer 40k and had several armies (Ultramarines, Grey Knights, Kroot, Chaos and more...) I was working 9am - 5pm job, so I had the time to put into Warhammer... Now I find myself in a position where the time IS a problem, I own my own business and have a family with four boys, I don't have the time to build and paint like I used to.
One of my favorite armies was an Ultramarine army. Here is a photo of some of the troops after I had hit them with a coat of black primer...
And here are the tanks... I was making some of these to be compatible with both the Ultramarines and Grey Knights, so you can see some Inquisition decorations.
Here are a few close up shots of troops mid build/paint.
Here is a shot of a finished Veteran Sgt.
and here is the Force Commander.
Not yet a complete army, this photo shows the Ultramarines going up against my Kroot Mercenaries.
Some day, when our house is done and work has stabilized some, I plan on getting back into painting... I'm sure at some point in the future my 4 boys will also be into 40k, so let's hope that when 7th edition rolls around (sarcastic joke) the minis are still legal to use!
