Not seeing too much Epic love on this board so I thought I'd share over here rather than on TacCom.
I started these guys last year for the TacCom painting competition. I ended up entering 2 Tactical, 1 Assault and 1 Devastator Detachment.

Then for the Tale of Tactical Wargames 09 painting event I decided to continue work on them to take them to Games Day this year.
I managed to get 2 Landspeeder Detachments done, along with 4 Razorback and Hunter Upgrades, and a Strike Cruiser.

These guys were last months projects. I didn't get the bases done before the end of April but managed to do them over the weekend and snapped some new pictures for them. 2 Tactical and 1 Devastator detachment, along with 8 Rhinos as transports.

That is because Epic is rubbish :-*
Only joking.
Lovely looking models, I even feel the urge to start painting my epic eldar. Just a shame no one plays around here :(
Are you planning any other units?

Currently, I'm pumping out 2 Bike Detachments along with a Supreme Commander Stand, Commander, and 2 Chaplain upgrades. I hope to have them done before Friday to fly down to Games Day.
I've also been fooling around with a theme for my Titans. This is what I can up with:

They're meant to be the Firebrands from the old AM plastic Warlord box. The weapons are currently magnetized and primed, I hope to get them done after I get back from Games Day in preparation for NEAT-II.

Aside from the Bikes, I want to try to finish some Drop Pods and maybe some Terminators and Whirlwinds for NEAT. We'll see what I end up painting though.
I actually started going to the weekly painting night at my local gaming store. It's been a real help with getting stuff done.

I like your converted commander.

Thanks. I had some of the new metal SM characters and wasn't a fan so this is what I came up with.
