exterminate !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So with the Cybermen completed I`ve now moved on to the Daleks now i had 3 choices.
The renegade faction (grey and black)
or
The imperial faction (white and gold)
or
the time war faction (bronze and gold)

Working out what i have i can do 2 of the factions, as i like the tom baker era I have decided to go with the renegades first and then move on to the imperials at a later date.

I`ve also got some time lords that are nearly finished....................

You will be deleted....................................................

Well I`ve been working away on my Dr Who models and have completed my Cybermen. 
At a later date I will add some more Cybermen but for now i have enough for what I want to do

I am a time lord............................

Well June has been a strange month, i`ve been weighing up the pros and cons of different war-games and at the moment the winner is (cue drum roll)

Dr who. I`ve had a soft spot for the Dr for years and as i have loads of models that are just hanging around gathering dust i may as well use them.
I have cyber-men, daleks, silurians, sea devils etc. coming out of my ears. So i`m going to start to use them.

I`ve made a solid start by doing the cyber-men first, all of them are based on the 60`s "invasion" models along with.
A cyber controller (converted from another 60`s model and an "invasion" head)  and
A cyber laser cannon (converted from another 60`s model and an "invasion" head and a scratch built cannon)
My only problem was the two heads i had set aside for the laser cannon conversion were to small for the bodies, but not to worry i`ve had to order some more cyber-men ready to be cut up.............

next up daleks............

the choices...............................

so I've weighed up the pros and cons, and i have decided that I'm going to complete my dark eldar army. And then call it a day with GW`s products, i may pick up the odd model here and their but that will be about it.

Now the past few days I've been looking on the internet at different ranges and their are several ranges that i like the look off.
Some i've had my eye on for sometime and some i own already lets start off with the ones with the most appeal at the moment.

Judge Dredd by Mongoose publishing: The rules are free and the newer models look fantastic. For the basic gangs you can use what ever you want. At the moment this is i the lead with me.

Along with

Dr Who by Crooked Dice: Another free set of rules and as i have a soft spot for Dr Who, and loads of models from Harlequin models. This too is a winner at the moment.

Incursion by Grind House Games: I picked the boxed set up for this last year (2010) as its a niffty little board game as opposed to a war game. I'm waiting on the new supplement which is due any time.

last on the list is.......
7TV by Crooked Dice: based on the Dr Who game above, this is the 3rd edition and is set in the world of cult tv think the avengers, the saint, etc. Now cult TV is something close to my heart (i was brought up on 60's and 70's TV.

As most of these are skirmish games I will probably end up doing 2 or 3 of them.

A dark dark time..............................

Well April and may have been strange months for me. Not quite sure why but i've had no get up and go as far as my dark eldar, blood angels go. it may have something to do with the fact that my now ex wife kicked me out this time last year. Or it may be the fact that GW has announced citadel finecast as the replacement for metal. Now i don`t want to get into a rant about price increases quality control etc.......
But i`m fast becoming little bit annoyed with GW i know their models are great but i cannot justify the price of them any more.
And so i have to make a choice.....
Do i carry on collecting as i used to......or
Do i give up and head to other companies?

I have all the blood angels in metal so i`m not going to need any of them in finecast, and the dark eldar i only need the new releases that are out the end of the month.

my choice at the moment is to buy what i need at call it a day, but only time will tell.........................
