Off to Salute!


Just about to head off across the pond to meet Conscript Curt in London to take in Salute 2012 - the biggest wargames show on the planet...? Should be an awesome time!

Meanwhile here's a couple of recently-completed figures to ogle...

Rogue-Trader-era Chaplain. Suitably ominous looking but not as OTT as current versions. Copplestone ftw!

Original Plague Marine, converted with a plastic tentacle from some other GW kit. Sacrilege to hack up a 25-year-old model, perhaps, but I already have several copies of this model in my Death Guard army.

Chaos Mutation: face of a Plaguebearer! Another great old '80s sculpt.

Recently acquired transports for the Howling Griffons RT Marines. Thanks to Conscript John for these. He has kept them immaculately - including all the fragile railings and antennae from the original sprues - not in picture. Perhaps to be joined after Salute by a Land Raider Armoured Proteus...?

Anyway, be good and see you when I get back!

Cheers Matt

Shame you can't make the game on Sunday.

Would've loved to as well, Ray, but I sure am looking forward to hanging out with you guys at the show on Saturday!

Have fun you guys - I look forward in a bittersweet fashion to stories of how awesome Salute will be.

Also looking forward to seeing the Land Raider Proteus on the table...
