Thanks, I am on old newbie, started 2 years ago at the age of 39 when playing heroscape was just not cutting it anymore I started using these 40K figures with modded rules when I found a very small 40K gaming group in town. About a month into learning I found the Space Wolves and never looked back, however as a newbie I would encourage anyone getting started to play vanilla marine and cut your teeth properly and get the basics down before taking on the Wolf Pack. I also came in at the end of 4th so my learning curve was all over the friggin place. I now have over 10K+ in points in WOLVES not counting the Titan's, 3 8'x4' gaming tables in the Basement Bunker, developed an addiction to casting and have made the road trip to Adepticon and played in the team event with Crimthaan and the 1st round of Ard Boyz. I also started recording my games last year and posting them on youtube for fun...I even got banned from WARSEER for posting an april fools video and will be wearing a T-Shirt proclaiming that next year at Adepticon, here it is for your enjoyment... www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8i575hymCYAnyhoo, look for me hangin on da forumz.

10,000 points in Space wolves? Sounds like I found another player for my Battle for Fenris Apocalypse Battles.

If anyone has any questions on castings, this is the person to ask.

Hey Pat,
What kind of rubber and resin do you use for casting you're own stuff?
I've used the oomoo rubber stuff before and it worked fine, but I think that their plastic is too fast to harden and incorporates bubbles far to frequently. What do you suggest?
Also, if you have alternatives that are on the less expensive side, let us know.

Warmaster, I use the silicone and resin from this site on ebay myworld.ebay.com/aeromarineproducts&ssPageName=STRK:MEFSX:SELLERIDAeromarine Products has the best prices I have found. the silicone is a 24hr cure and I never have issues with bubbles but I also use a long pour of over 3 feet to break the bubbles by literaly stretching the silicone The resin on the other hand if you are having bubble problems and it is setting too fast then use less part A(the clear stuff) and a little more part B(the Amber colored stuff) which will slow the cure time. Also make sure you have a good release agent which will cost about $10 a can and use it on everything, for one part molds it does a great job of releasing the surface tension which gets rid of more bubbles should they form. PM me and I will get you my cell number or just get it from Jay or Andy
