Painted Grey Knights, Nordic Edge sneak peak and BIG viking book!

I am finished with my first two marines, the brave test models, I am happy with the result and the rest will have this scheme. What I dont know is how I want the bases to look, but in my experience it is usually best to do all of them at the same time to save time and keep the uniform look. I used a red flourocent vallejo colour on the eyes, powe weapons and the "magic" ammo, gw paints thus blue, but I wanted to try this funky color, and it looks pretty good to me.





Today a large package arrived, yay! The newest and best book about Viking warfare to date, I bought my copy from the Swedish military history book club as it wont be availible untill this fall for the rest of you. (swedish readers can do yourself a favour and join at www.smb.nu its free and no obligations)
It look like a great read and I am already planning a small village diorama! :)

Due to Eng's request I included some pictures from the Nordic Edge vol. 3 that I mentioned earlier, enjoy, then go get it!

Vikings almost done.. and wtf, plane?!

Some shields to paint, a little detailing and the basing to do, then the guys are home.
I really need to quit earlier and get better light for photographing..

Worth noting (or not?) I am now a proud owner of an airbrush!

Another thing, I really can't understand this sudden urge to build a plane, anyhow I got my hands on a 1/48 harrier, never really got into planes, and tonight I watched top gun with my fiance, something is seriously wrong here.. :)

Now, lets do something with that airbrush, I smell 10mm sci-fi!

Us infantry complete, and vikings taking shape

I think I am happy with my infantry now, the flash is eating away some details but I think the picture do them some justice. Will take a lot of better pictures when it's all done.
I also have begun to paint the vikings, lovely models that compared to the 1/35 master box models are quite quick to paint!

Vikings!

After the glue incident earlier I decided to finish the model I was working on, as fate would have it, the model was the chieftain of my small viking warband, born through disaster I shall name him Einar Bottle Bane!
I mounted them on washers, with Einar getting a bigger one to help identify him on the table and also to prevent having him falling again. :)
Thanks to Eng ( kampgruppe-engel.blogspot.com ) for the minis who I beleive are Gripping Beast.
