Jealous, Valhallans were my #1 favourite IG army of the time!
They used to have so much flavour!
I love you blog and the concept dude, your work on that fort was superb as well! It brings me back to first getting to the hobby as a wee nipper and seeing all these wonderful armies and pics in the old WD's.
Are you starting Valhallans, now? Or just painting up a squad for fun? You crazy man, you.
I agree, I love these mins too. If I hadn't gone with Tallarn, I would have done the Russian thing... I love the missile launchers and the sergeant, but I always thought the grendade launcher guy was kind of dopey looking. Those metal figs are just about impossible to customize, though. Without wishing you'd died as a child, I mean.
I started playing Warhammer 40K around 1997, dabbling in Fantasy, Gorkamorka, Mordhiem, but my true passion is 40K and as such, has brought me to collect the models I started playing with. So, you'll see a lot of 2nd edition (and older) on here.
A collection of classics. It's very good to see them.

I have at least 1 platoon each of Mordians, Cadians, Valhallans, Catachans and Tallarns.
ReplyDeletePlus a bunch of stormtroopers, and a bunch of RT guard too.
