Hi there peeps. I recently joined your forum and said hello in the relevant area.
I thought I'd share my projects with you all.
I will be uploading more pics of the rest of the army as I take them (it's been very overcast last few days so I will wait for better light to take the others).

Here is my Chaplain in terminator armour.

Hope you like! :o

Yup, that too. It's really nice. I like the detailing you've put on the models the caligraphy style text is pretty good looking.

The first time I read it I saw 'melba' which is just downright wrong, but forgetting that Alba is also the gaelic name for Scotland (so a quick google tells me anyway) so maybe the OP meant that? Or not...

lol Alba = Scotland. Like Albion is England. It is the old name for it. The chapter symbol is my clan symbol and "Over Fork Over" is our clan motto. The Y shape represents a pitch fork which a farmer in Ayreshire used to hide the king of Scotland under some hay, hence the motto also.
But Jessica Alba can be their mum too, I mean, she's pretty fit after all!!! :D
Not that marines have maternal sides being produced from the geneseed of a dead male primarch, but if they were to have a mum... why not! ;)

I'd love to 'over fork over' jessica alba too...



- liked the extra detailing on the chaplain. I was going to say 'pulled it off nicely' but thought it inappropriate given my earlier attempt at inuendo.
