I always nerdgasm at that chestpiece.

Space Wolves aren't my favourite chapter lore-wise but Bjorn the Fell Handed is awesome:

Have you read Prospero Burns?? If not I'd recommend it. I wasn't a big fan of SW before I read that either but I definitely have an appreciation for the fluff now.

Thanks, brah. Need to tan up for beach season and relive my fat-youth.

Weight cut ahead of schedule. 170 flat this morning. Will be eating pretty well today. Huzzah.
 
Sorry to expose my non-nerdiness, but I have no idea what Space Wolves are... That fan art looks very interdasting... What should I read?
 
Well, it's pretty nerdy. So, be warned.

The book I'm recommending OT read is Prospero Burns. It's an entry in the Horus Heresy serious of books. I believe it's been going since.... 2002? Maybe. It's based on "fluff" that Games Workshop(the parent company of the franchise) started putting out in the mid-70's to support and sell their wargames.

To really enjoy the ongoing story arc I'd start with the first HH series book, Horus Rising. You don't necessarily need to. They are writing in quite a large sandbox of made up stuff though. So, it could help to appreciate things.

Prospero Burns is a good book all around, I think. It's done by one of their best writers. So if you were going to read one on it's own it would be a solid choice.
 
Sounds good.
I will defintely order it, then. I have been reading some pretty serious books these days, so it would be nice to lose myself in shit like this...

There is only so much Richard Dawkins I can take...

At one point I had all of them but I've moved so many times.... they just go missing.

You can often find them in used paperback stores for 1-2$. No need to pay 15$ a pop.
 
Nice. I am heading into Montreal this weekend. I will go looking... If I am hooked, I will look for someone selling them on ebay or something... I am sure someone is selling them by the lot...
 
Your around 5'7 right?
I wouldnt be that lean if I went down to 170. So good job (Jealousy speaking; I hate you)
 
So far I'm 8 books in, just finsiehd Legion. Prospero Burns is supposed to be incredible. I liked the bits that Brynngar had in Battle for the Abyss(great book also) but I'm not really into the feral rage stuff that Blood Angels & Space Wolves have going on.

I like the Salamanders bets so far. Just cool as fuck.

You'll enjoy it(PB). There is very little rage. Abnett does a great job of humanizing them.

There are tons of fan art sites out there. It's hit and miss but some really cool stuff out there. There are other 40k related pieces I'd like to get eventually.
 
"pretty nerdy" might be an understatement haha. I"ve tried to talk to some of my buddies about getting into it. And Most of em look at me like I"m a lunatic LOL.

Also, finally got a good look at the chest piece, I like it man. Is the half-sleeve 40k related too?


Also...Fuck the space marines. :D

This is where it's at
 
No my half sleeve is a collection of pocket watch interiors that my artist stylized a bit. I need to get it finished and brightened.

Having a GW-related conversation will rarely win you a popularity contest. I'd still do some form of gaming but it's just too expensive.

I'm usually all for supporting the bad guys and the anti-heroes, but I don't like Chaos in the 40K universe. I played chaos when I played fantasy battle too. They just seem to be made up of weak willed humans. The argument is that if you serve Chaos you are rewarded purely on merit in the 40k universe whereas progressing in normal human society is near impossible.

But Space Marines are just way cooler, they're honourable, galactic killing machines just bred to annihilate. That is just awesome.
