This is it. In a little under 9 hours, someone will walk away with my wonderfully painted Tallarn IG Tournament army. Come on 46 watchers. Now is the time to make your move. Or are you going to let one of the best looking IG armies in the world get away from you without a fight?

You know no-one makes a serious bid on ebay until the last hour!
ReplyDelete"best looking IG armies in the world"...wow, that's bold
ReplyDelete"I think they look quite nice, so long as you like desert schemes I guess, check the pictures really, it's all subjective anyway right?"
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure it has the same ring to it...
@Da Warboss
ReplyDeleteYou call it bold, I simply call it true. I know how the army matches up, appearance-wise, at a national level.
@ Da warboss:
ReplyDeleteLeaving out "one of the" in your quote really makes it out of context. It is ONE OF THE best i Have ever seen period (although I like jungle fighters more :) )
Maybe he's still comparing it to those official 'Eavy Metal Ultramarine minis he thought were for sale the other day.
ReplyDeleteShips to: United States
ReplyDeleteShipping: Not Available to Brazil
That was nice...
Gratz on the sale. This is one of my favorite armies ever. I feel sad that the ongoing story won't be yours to tell. But that IS some really nice seed money for your next project!
ReplyDeleteHeck, My buddy just had a fully-welded cage built into his track-day car for less than that. Sure, less labor, actually, but his life will literally depend on it! And steel of that caliber is almost as expensive as GW models :p
Doesn't really matter what I compare it to, does it, slappy? Those Ultras do exist 'in the world', right? (Personally, I think hsi look better than the Ultras). I don't think adding 'one' changed the context, either. 'In the world' says enough. If you're gonna say 'one of the best in the world' then there's gotta be some parameters about what constitutes 'best'. Is it in the top ten? No, probably not even the top 100. So maybe one of the top ten in America might be better. But I doubt they fall even in that range. Still, they look good, no doubt.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I've got a friend in england who was looking at the 'eavy metal armies the other day and he mentioned they looked much sharper in White Dwarf than they do in person.
ReplyDelete@blnz
ReplyDeleteYou should have contacted me if you were interested. As I said in the auction info, the shipping varied so much from country to country that I couldn't list just one single price the way eBay wanted me to. $160 to Canada, $350 to Europe, and double that for Australia. Big packages suck!
@Reckless
ReplyDeleteYeah, that money is pretty much all I'll have to spend on my hobbies for the coming year.
@Da Warboss
ReplyDeleteWhy are you still flapping your gums?
I've seen 'Eavy Metal minis first hand. I've been to national events. I know how my painting matches up to other armies of all kinds. Top 50 of all IG? Certainly. Top 20? Maybe. It starts getting pretty subjective after a certain point.
Troll can't properly read an eBay auction he personally looked up in order to troll; troll responds with Paragraphs of Rage when mocked on aforementioned reading disability; news at 11.
ReplyDeleteBrent called, he wants his troll back.
ReplyDeleteDamn I missed the end of the auction. I would have gone over $ 2K, but this has been the week from hell and I was so busy and forgot to snipe. :-( If the sale falls through, let me know!

ReplyDelete(sad Panda face)
Yeah, yeah. Someone disagrees and they're a troll. Full of rage, eh? I'm not the one with the 'one of the best in the world' ego. I saw a black and red IG army at 'AB semis here in Michigan that looks AT LEAST as good as this one (better with the interesting soviet block letters). That's one player in one state. But whatever. If you think they look good, that's all that matters. Just don't tell me it's in the top 50 with a serious look on yer mug.
ReplyDeleteWarboss, you have zero credibility here. Go talk smack somewhere else. Like BoLS.
ReplyDeleteLet's be nice boys! We all know your former army was amazing and has competed at the top levels of Adepticon and The Nova Open. Pictures do not do your skills justice. Don't allow one guy to control your emotions.
ReplyDeleteI do expect to see your picture change to some type of blood angel reference soon though.
Hopefully Warboss will make it down for a tournament soon. I would love to get in a game with you man.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!
@Spag
ReplyDelete???
This is me being calm. If I lose it, trust me, you'll know.
@Sandwyrm,
ReplyDeleteSo are you going to get a new picture? Maybe a pic of mephiston or something? I am excited about getting in some games with your BA's and my DE.
Lot's of anger here for stating an opinion. I said they looked good, didn't I? Just not world-beating. If that bugs you, apparently the next toruney your in will have to be doubles (you can partner with yer ego). Yeah, I'd love to make it down there as well, Spag. Maybe the next time the better half goes to Columbus for the banking stuff, I'll hit ya up. You attend Gen-Con regularly?
ReplyDelete@Spag
ReplyDeleteI'm working on a complete visual revamp of the site that will include a new picture. Think corn. :)
@Warboss
