I've recently decided to get back into tabletop war-gaming and what better place to start than with the models that I've acquired either through purchases or after various roommates who played moved on. Of course that means sifting through mangled models and piles of bits, but then again that's half the fun.
Here's the army as it looks now:
An overview of what I'm working with.
My Daemon Prince.
Soon to be Plague Zombies.
Fallen terminators.
The ragged troops.

Good lord that is an unholy mess of bitz. Not that I should talk; two disorganized bins of 40k bitz plus some loose stuff lying around, on top of a totally incomprehensible mess of Flames of War bitz is starting to take its toll on my modelling.

This is what you get when roomies move away and leave 40k stuff behind. You might not end up with a ton of models, though I have enough for a rather large force, but you do get a ton of useful bits to kit things out with. The other nice thing is that with a few purchases and some time fixing things - damn weak gant ankles - I will also get a Nid army up and running.
Heh. That sort of thing is much easier to get away with for Orks; not so much for the other armies.
That's what I did - one of the first Leman Russes I put together for my Guard way back when was (and in many respects, still is) a total piece of shit. Poorly assembled, silly, nonsensical and unnecessary conversions, and a bad paint job. So I glued on a few Orky bits and a gretchin tank kommanda, painted the whole thing red, and now it's ... still ugly. Beautifully, beautifully ugly.

It isn't as bad with a Nurgle themed chaos army. The whole theme is that papa plague swept over a chaos detachment that was in shambles and brought them forward to victory. Thus fallen warriors from other gods, scavenged equipment, and other oddities are par for the course.
