Thanks for the good luck wishes :D I really appreciate that.

In the meanwhile, I have another very cool miniature on the way. One off production run and all that.
Also considering Meikos Kaos Warriors to replace my Nurgle teams Chaos warriors who look more like ST3 then ST4 miniatures

Here is a small update on the teams I am currently painting

The last bits of my Ork team which I started in 1999 and the first batch of my Goblin team. Unified colors for both teams to allow using the Goblins in the Ork team

My Human team

That deathroller is mental, though I like it. How balanced is it, and is it a conversion or just a make I've missed?

The Deathroller is most of the 3rd edition Deathroller but with addition of the boiler and wheels of the Empire Steam tank. The Steamtank is a full metal model, so this baby weighs a bit, but is absolutely stable on it's (unfortunately) 40mm base. On a 30mm base it would not quite be as stable.

I left the rear a bit higher to allow models to move freely underneath. With bigger models like Trolls and the like I foresee significant problems ;)

The small bell on top of the smokestack is an accessory I found on a Lindt chocolate bunny

3 more Goblins unexpectedly found their way to my team. That means that as soon as they arrive (big thank you to Pelle) I will be able to field a complete Goblin team. Time to toss a coin and let that decide whether I finish my Human team first or start on some Trolls.

I finished the Nurgle team yesterday evening, same as the Dwarves. All Goblin and Ork miniatures are finished as well. I also decided on a basing style for the Humans. Finally I'm getting somewhere!

Thanks to Pelle I was able to add 4 more Goblins to my team. I apologize for the quality of the photo. Couldn't do a better job under the given circumstances

Deine Bilder sehen toll aus, ich finde nur den spiegelnden Boden furchtbar.

Your pictures are really good, just the reflecting ground irritates me a bit.
