Return to the Northern Wastes

It feels good to back in the Northern Wastes, the desert sun doesn't suit my Norse blood in the slightest. 

I've gotten 57 skaven infantry painted which puts me 6 behind. I'm not going to bother with pics; I'm sure you're all bored of seeing my mediocrely painted Clanrats and Skavenslaves. Once I have caught back up on my "1 a day cahallenge" I am going to treat myself to a character, most likely a wizard (my 3k list calls for 3 of them).

He's warlock with staff 2. He'll get some extra tlc. I hope the finished result will be worth a pic or two. 

In the meantime here's some pics of the Hoover Dam. If they don't inspire you to whip up some rogue trader terrain I don't know what will! 

If I had the skill/time/patience/room/drugs? I would love to build a set of these. To me they are so much cooler than the typical space marine "statues" you see so often nowadays. 

I also found a really cool spot for a sabre-duel, Vader needs his own show in vegas anyway!

The general landscape itself screams 

sci-fi to me ala Arakis, Tattooine, Mars etc.

Hopefully these will give someone out there some inspiration!
