This marks the 400th post to the Mordian 7th Regiment blog, and first things first today I want to thank all of you readers and followers out
there - I truly appreciate all the support, advice, constructive
criticism and kind words you've given me over the years! It really means
a lot to me, and I thought I'd offer up an old legacy unit of mine as a thank your
to commemorate the 400th post.
While going through the display cabinet my eye fell upon the original motorized rough riders I'd built years back. and since these were some of the very first conversions I posted when the blog began back in 2009 I thought they'd be a nice thing to give away.
Anyone who is a follower of the blog that posts a comment here over the
next week will be entered into a drawing for them - these guys have been
waiting to see some action for far too long! Thanks again for all of your support over the years folks, you guys rock!
In other news, this milestone ended up being a fortuitous conincidence - at this point, all of the
non-apocalypse units in the army are now painted! I spent some time
pulling everything out and snapped a family photo:
It's
been a long road getting all of these guys done, and I'm really happy
with how they've turned out. I have to get the Baneblade done by October
for Feast of Blades, but I'm thinking that for now it's time to move on to another
project for a while - new poll up in the upper right, lemme know what
you guys want to see! While rooting around in the Closet of Doom I
unearthed a whole mess of Iron Hands that a friend had mailed me prior
to him moving overseas. There's darn near a whole army of 'em - just in
time to take advantage of the new marine releases. My wallet cries out in
terror!
400 posts! Congratulations! Awesome looking army and great giveaway as well! Does that mean new rough riders for you?

ReplyDeleteYour blogs a constant source of inspiration for my own mediocre efforts, and your own kind comments on my blog have been much appreciated.
They are some lovely rough riders, and an very generous thing to give away. I'd be too proud of them to part with them!!!
Great group shot of the guard, a real hammer of the emperor if ever I saw one.
Congrats in the milestone!

ReplyDeleteI don't know why, but in that all-army pic, if you squint right, the Baneblade looks like it has a fat Abrams turret. Kinda cool....
