So it Begins!

So, i've decided that I need to finally update my 20k points of Chaos after 4 years of sitting around in boxes. The paint jobs are God awful!

 (Not to mention Dusty!)

                                                     

As of today the project begins! I'm going to start off working on my nine Thousands Sons marines,four Raptors, and 5 Night Lord marines.

(Nice side note to remember, ye olde Midnight Blue stains the crap out of plastic minis. Who knew?)

I've decided that i'm going to do up some Night Lords to test out my skills on fine detail, not to mention I love their lore. After a few test schemes I've come up with one that i'm going to keep.

Really simple too if your interested in doing it yourself.
