Hello everybody

[AkaneNagamiya]

Hello,

I'm Akane Nagamiya, on some other sites known as Farseer Saeralyhn.
As you may have gathered from the naming, I started out as a 40K player, but recently (well... almost a year ago), I started playing Fantasy as well. My army of choice (after getting a Coven Throne and Isabella from my BF for my birthday) is obviously the Vampires. It may have had something to do with the Coven Throne and Zombie Dragon being featured in the White Dwarfs I got for the Sister Codex.

Next to Throne and Isabella, I picked up an Army box at an event about half a year after that. As to what I've finished... well... lets just say I'm very slow, having finished the Necromancer, 5 zombies and 4 skeletons (with 4 more to be done tomorrow) and I modeled the Ghoul King as a seperate model, but I'll have to pick up the pace, since there is a fantasy campain going on in our local gaming club (starting at 50 point with warband rules, building up to normal sized games.)

I think that's most of if for now

Akane

Welcome to the forums! Looking forwards to seeing the throne and such painted O_O..with..fluff! yes..?No..? maybe? /shakesfist

 

[AkaneNagamiya]

Chances are I'll make a story for it, as is already happening with the in-store campain ofcourse. Then again, I've been playing 40K for three years now, and I still don't have my craftworld fluff straight...

But I love fluff, so I'll probably think about it a lot

Pft, craftworlds are dull as it is O_O! Vamps are much more funky to make stuff for *nodnod*

I know vampires are fun I think that one thing that may be a problem with the fluff, may be that I absolutely love Rosario+Vampire (manga/anime series of a normal human boy ending up in a monster school and making friends with a vampire (and getting a whole harem of monsters eventually)), and I haven't been able to combine both views of a vampire yet... just google Akashiya Moka and you'll know what I'm talking about. I already gave up using that imagery (not that confident with painting/conversions (yet?))

As for the Craftworld fluff, my Eldar lived on the Crone Worlds for eons after the Fall, and have recently built one and managed to escape. And.... that's it... I'm still figuring out the rest... I'm guessing we'll be darker than the average Eldar (Not counting Dark Eldar of course).

Vampires are pretty amazing. Welcome to the boards? I see Shareya got to you already, there's tactics and modeling help (To War! and Dark Arts, respectively) if you have questions/need advice.

As for being slow, don't even talk to me about it; I have over 600$ (MSRP anyways) of vamp stuff and.. what, maybe three models fully painted? I'm about as slow as molasses would be given the same weather conditions, and I live far enough north that I know what snow is, not as well as some people though.

Yeaaah the Roasario stuff does not work at all with anything vampy and Warhammer x)
