I got it and love most of it, except for the one guy's tyranid painting...


Why would you paint the model the same colour as the sprue? The whole thing looks as if he didnt paint it except for the black sections on the back.

I was kind of disappointed with it.

But the rest of the 'Nid stuff seems cool, I went to a hookah bar and rave last night and woke up hung over so I have yet to read through it all.

Oh and the skaven section is pretty cool, and lol at the brood mother, so gross.

you went to a rave thats awesome. But anyway yeah the skaven are really gruesome he did a great job with them. That brood mother was gross. I disagree with your thoughts on the nids though. I thought that was cool. I mean i didn't like the basecoat but the finished models did look pretty cool.

Well when they are all together the look of the Gargoyle wings kinda makes them all look slightly better. But the models all shown throughout it just look... well like the sprues. I like what he did with the back but I guess I just dislike gray models :/

I'd agree with the tyranid painting. At first I thought It was a conversion page as they usually leave the conversions unpainted. I also didn't like the yellow stripes he stippled down their backs, although it offered some relief from the overpowering greyness of the tyranid Stippling it on just made it look messy IMO.

But yeah the Skaven player's painting and conversions were very very cool, I especially enjoyed the Brood mother and the wierd Albino rat. Very gross, very cool :)

I don't think the army looked bad at all, i guess it was done to show how someone one with no or little painting skills can put a fully painted army on the table. Which can only be a good thing. I do feel this issue could of done with even more nid stuff.

And the Skaven army was sick in a really cool way.

Issue 360 huh?, wow that means i have not missed a issue since 178 thats 182 issues i have bought without fail!
