Genestealers missing arms

Yay, last week spent pulling hair getting ready for anime convention, last weekend spending far too much time awake at convention, Monday sleeping it off and now back to (hopefully) workin' on some 40k.

I'm sure a number of other people have noticed this, but 2 of the Space Hulk Genestealer sculpts are missing an arm.  This isn't a case of broken off arm, they were never sculpted in.  Initially I thought 3 were, but I found the missing arm on the one emerging from the floor.

I'm not sure what (if anything) I want to do about this.  It shouldn't be too hard to add an extra arm back into the 'stealers.  Though I'm wondering if I'll have the right kinds spare to use for them from the other 'stealers I have.

A Generous Gentleman

Recently b.smoove over at A Gentleman's Ones had a design contest for the masthead of his blog. Sadly I didn't even make the finalists list, but that's ok, I had fun.

I focused on making the header match the description of what a Gentleman's Ones is (based on the description provided in his blog's sidebar).  And came up with a last stand (which many seemed to have done).  And I made a slight change to the subtext message to make it flow better.  Incidentally, there is actually only 20 unique gaunts in the image, and a single warrior.  I'm missing a chunk of my 'nid army so I used what was available (and painted).  The 2 marines consist of my entire collection of painted marines (which I didn't even paint), though I plan on rectifying that in the next few months as my Dancing Spectres take on a more definitive form.

Anyway, I entered the contest for the fun of making a new banner.  I was expecting a single model of some type as the everyone gets a prize bit.  Man was I surprized.  I now have 22 Space Hulk Genestealers and 20 door frame bases.  Oh and a sweet T-shirt.

Thanks B. Smoove, these look like they'll be great fun to paint as they have nice dynamic poses, and is a more then generous prize. ^.^
