Inspiring Undead Part 2

So part 2 of Inspiring Undead, this time Art Work which has helped my focus.


To me this is the classic Undead look, that i have tried for in my own Undead Warband.


I love this picture, it shows a bit of the comedy side of the Undead while still staying dark and Gothic.


Again another dark and Gothic art piece, once again a picture my own Undead try to live uptoo (sorry for the bad pun).


Classic Undead army from the Undead Army book of late, 4th Ed changed the look of Undead forever and made them less Gothic and Humorous to bright and laughable. Still when painted ''Wight'' (Heh yet  another bad pun) they do look fantastic. My Favourites are the Wraiths and Wight Cav.



Chaos Champions, sometimes serve even in Undeath. A year and a day to do as the must.




Arhhh the Deadites from Army of Darkness, creepy and funny. Perfect

Opening up old blister packs

Hey,

Today i have done something i have never had the chance to do before, no this isn't a story about me losing my Virginity ;) But rather today i have opened a long OOP blister pack...shock horror!


This is the first time i had to do this for a blister pack this old and it was indeed alot harder then i thought it was going to be, sure they are gaming pieces and they are there to be painted and used (As anyone knows me i hate unpainted armies). But even still breaking that seal after 20 years or more untouched brought a tear to my eye.. well ok not quite but you get the idea.

So what's your take on opening the old packs? Do you do it? Do you keep the packs after?

Cheers

Warhammer World Invasion aka So I heard you like Cults

Yesterday i went to another of the Warhammer World Invasion events, this time it was a doubles event (Not my favourite) So i went with my friend Kris.

I took my Genestealer Cult and Kris took his Chaos Cult (Used to my mine till i sold it on). I happy to say that the combined Cults won not only  the Watford Store Champions but also Best Army with a almost unheard of score of a max of 20 out of 20 points for Painting/Basing/Warlord/Fluff.

Watford Store Invasion Champions, Note my Oldhammer T-shirt

Best Army Award

Genestealer Magus

Team name: So I heard you like Cults. 5 points away from max score in gaming.
