Myself and my armies

I've been involved in Warhammer 40k since the spring of 2005. At the time, I was introduced to the material by a group of gamers I was involved with, and haven't looked back since.

My first models were figures with paint just caked on them. I remember looking at the majesty of the models in White Dwarf and from the Heavy Metal Team and then looking at my own handiwork and disparing. Why didn't my models look like that? How was I ever supposed to get that good? I almost abandoned the hobby then.

I have since overcome that first crushing realization that painting can be very challenging and proceeded to develop my own style.

I play Night Lords, a war band called Raiders of The Veil. I haven't done a lot with them since the latest Codex came out though. There just really isn't a lot of fun in that book.

I also play Imperial Guard, Space Wolves, and have my own Space Marine Chapter (The Legion of Bone) that I'd enjoy getting a chance to do some more with in the future.

Three Marine armies?! Insanity! I know.
