What have I done!!

Oops, seemed to have gone a bit overboard..................and made a small purchase from a nice chap on E-bay.  I havent really been into warhammer 40k and to tell the truth I probably never would have gotten around to painting any figures I purchased.
 This is all the result of a gaming friend of mine, I wont mention any names but, thanks Scullmiester http://scullmeister.blogspot.com.au/ 
 Anyway, I believe my young bloke is slightly interested, so there are a few other 40k figures in the post, Eldar, I hope. Sometimes its hard enough explaining historical figures to none wargames, let alone space monsters.
 By the way Sculls, I think I've overshot the 500 point mark a wee bit.
 Back in the real world I'm still trying to finish some Aventine pike, but as mentioned in a previous blog, summer is here at present so all painting is in slow motion. (and just returned from a 4 day trip to Rottnest Island, annual boys trip, so didnt see much of the island except the pub and the bays where we anchored the boat) Still recovering, this age thing is a killer! 
 I'm mixing and matching a couple of painting methods with this lot, (dipping and straight 3 layer method) depending on the colour of the tunics.
So hopefully I'll complete them soon................................................that could mean in a month or so.
Cheers.
