A bit of history:
So I have been playing 40k since about August of last year (2008), however I played all forms of Games Workshop stuff when I was 12 to 15-16ish, which is over a decade ago (I'm getting old). I had a fairly extensive amount of models stored away in my parents garage somewhere. Over christmas I unearthed most of them, and brought a bunch back to the east coast with me. I now have a crapton of CSM, Necrons, more Nids, and C:SM stuff. I decided to use all the leftover Space Marines for a Flesh Tearers force, as Blood Angels were one of my old loves, but wanted to mix it up a bit. I like the Flesh Tearers look a bit more than the Blood Angels, it has a bit more compositional balance with the black added to the red, and I feel like there are a billion Blood Angels players around, and having a different army is nice.
Here are my Flesh Tearers right now:
Squad 1
Squad 2
Squad 3 - I don't know why this picture came out way worse.
Attack Bike
Death Company + Chaplain
Chaplain Detail
Commander Kharnte
Current Army Shot (06.27.09) - (Can't figure out why the image doesn't resize, so part is cut off, click image to see full size pic)
One thing definitely neglected are the vehicles. This is a mech force and I do have a lot of vehicles that need to be painted that are not shown. Soon hopefully I'll have some ready to show. I do know that Flesh Tearers aren't traditionally supposed to have vehicles but I wanted a mech army, so whatever to that fluff. I don't even logically understand how an army can exist without any kind of troop transport or tanks, do they just footslog it between battles? Whatever, I don't care to argue about that, bottom line is my Flesh Tearers have vehicles. I think I'll be making some separate posts about various units in the coming days so stay tuned.
Any C&C are welcome.
