So, because a certain beautiful lady complained about it, I realized that I really really really should update this at some point... and I came on here and... to my suprise and my horor I found...
Not a single rat.
Dun Dun Duuuuuuuuh!!!!
This has been the biggest project of the past several months and what I have been working on tirelessly then all my other little side projects come the the inevitable point where I will actually have to buy something if I wish to continue planning them! :P
The Nezumi (Japanese for rat or mouse... I use lots and lots of Japanese words and influences in this army!) are the first army in... well ever... that I have actually made! And so, for this first of many posts on the Ratmen of the Grimdark (grimdark is a phrase GW coined for describing the particular ascetic of the 40k universe) I will be showing off everything I have actually assembled thus far!! Sorry for the crappy pictures, still learning how to take good small ones...
Here we have the HQ (headquarters or leaders) of the army! I'm playing a counts-as Dark Eldar list, so these guys represent, from left to right, a Lahemean from the Archon's future retinue, the Archon himself, and a Hemonculus.
This shot is to give you a basic idea of what the clanrats, the main troops in my army will look like :) I don't know if you can tell, but im terribly proud of how I managed to fit the gun into his little hand, it actually looks like he's pulling the trigger!
Army shot!! Here they are from the right...
And from above!! The rat ogre is a counts-as Grotesque :) Unfortunately, this picture was taken before the Archon had gotten his weapon switch, and he still sports a massive cleaver, rather than his sexy new pistol...
And finally, a shot of the Rat Ogre, lording over the little rat underlings! In my opinion, the Rat Ogres from the Island of Blood set are some of the most beautiful models that GW has ever produced!
TaDaa!! There they are ladies and gentleman, why not give them a round of applause!! I think that that's long enough for this first post, but I promise, there will be much more to come!!
