Iron Warriors 5th Grand Company re-born - Army log

[Iron-Daemon Forge]

Nice use of the powders, man. I use Secret Weapon brand, myself.

 

Thanks geektom.

 

I've just found weather powder to be really great to add to my models.  Pretty much since useing FW weather powder, I'll pretty much be useing it on all my tanks in the future.  I'll need to try get that least one of each next time I'm down in Warhammer world.

 

Also forgot to add.  When apply the pigment fixer, dap it onto the weather powder.  Just you don't want to disturbed the powder & look all in patchies.

 

Later today I'm going to be focuse on getting models I'll need for Rapid Fire this weekend.

Update

 

This weekend saw my Iron Warriors take to the field of battle for my wargaming club event - Stirling Wargamer Rapid Fire.  Dispite my dice rolling, it was a really great weekend on a lot of levels.  Events for me just about getting games in, as I don't get the 15 games a week like I use to do years ago & general catch up with friends & add even more glory & history to my Iron Warriors force.

 

There lot of good & a lot bad moment.  One low moment was my Knight never making it past turn 2 for five games out of 6..... I don't see why everyone was trying to take him out of the game....

 

But great weekend.  Fought one of my most recent hard fought games, those once where you really focuse on the game, any thing that goes wrong will have a big impack, it pretty much on the wire game - If anything this was the only game my Knight surivie & done well   Though I did keep it in reserve as it was getting soul destroying

 

Before the storm (event)

I've just post photos of this model - As said a lot of the games I fought have help shape & add history to my force, into the army they are today.  Just this Iron Warrior who I made a while back was in a game on Wed against my friend & there Nids which ended up winning best army, with myself & a Space Marines force being other two armies battle it out for the best army award.

 

Just on Wed, he was the lone surivie of my unit 1, my Veterans & one my trusted units.  Just he was in close combat vs 30 Gaunts from turn 2 to turn 6, over 50 armour save made & won combat, slay all 30 Gaunts in the end.

So I'm going to possible look that adding a Nid trophies to his backpack, a skull on a spike useing the Nid skull from Abaddon.

 

Also pick up my Iron Warriors t-shirt which was worn today the second day of the event.  A friend had pick the t-shirt up from Warhammer Fest for me, to go along with my IW mug (see few pagies back) & my IW's army

Friday painting - the day before the event.  Always the same as seen ever single time I've attended a event.  The unit & models shown here where meant to be done sooner, but there been a lot in personal life going on & it did not help a lot my order start of Oct where delyed, mean I miss a free day I had.

I've just return home from the event. But tomorrow I will start work on my Maulerfiend for Call of Chaos as one my friends give me spare Dark Eldar bits during today which was cool.

 

Also during Rapid Fire, one my oppent was talking about useing a Sorcerer with Lord Narach & his unit of Terminators. Be honsty I've never really use psychic, only my Wolves use a Rune Priest. But that was 5th ed. Psyhicpower have change & to be honsty I do find it hard to keep track & it may not help I don't pay attesion most time because part it maybe autism side with my semantic pragmatic disorder or because I'm just ready to start gaming.

But just they point out a really cool idea & then talk about some cool conversion I could do. So this is somthing I'm going to try do in the future, need to keep a eye out for Forge World Erebus to use the head toward the conversion. Also check out bitz box to see what bits I can find & start come up with idea.

 

Again all down to give me chose & it always nice to add cool models.

 

 

Heresy models

I did show some Heresy model a while back but unsure if I shown unit photos? Just this was part of a hobby challenge I had last year. I miss out on part two during March to May due to that a really busy time in my life. So was really gutted.
But part 3 was annouce recently with a deadline for the 31st Jan next year. So I've offer to paint a unit of Iron Havocs & a Seige Breaker as a HQ chose.
It just more because I like the Heresy era models. Doubt I'll get a all out army like my Chaos era Iron Warriors. It just more a few units just because they look cool.

The seige breaker will be theme & tie in with the Chaos era Comptemter (sp) Dreandought I got for my birthday because he was put into the Dreadnought armour.

I really like the way that you continuously update your models, they really tell a story of the battles you play. If I ever find some people to game against I would love to do stuff like that.

Thanks Daemon2027

 

I am possible looking that a way to try add Writhknight trophies to my Chaos Knight.  Just on Thursday before the event I went to get a game vs my friend Eldar.  It taken out two knight.  Against the third one, my knight was on three hull point that this stage....... pretty much if it was anything other than a 6 followed by a 2 for the d3 hull points, but he got it. 

We just rolled dice see what could have happen & I ended up getting double 6 to wound, with my friend saying he was lucky to have just taken out the Knight there.

 

Or I'll look for a way to paint on kill marking on the right knee pad.

 

The Nids won best army, all Nids trophies that are black with red to orange armour plate? are base on that army.  My friend a really good gamer & every time it is a good challenge.

 

I'll be getting my Maulerfiend built later today. 

[Iron-Daemon Forge]

Call of Chaos updated

 

I was going to do the update yesterday night, but just felt really tired during the day & my head was starting to feel like someone had hit me with a thunder hammer.  Not sure if it was just being tired after great weekend that Rapid Fire or because a random person who came to the event to see a friend chose to pick up my Knight right above my army - the arm's, shoulder pads & top hull are removible to make it easyer for me to carry, can also be a bit frigle on the base as he was super glue on, painting them seprate that the time make it easyer get to my local store to paint the model. 
Just a lot of damage could have been done & it not a good thing.  I hate it when people I don't know pick up my models with out permission.

 

Anyway.  When I did have a hour I was looking to be ok at 7pm, got the Maulerfiend quickly built so he would he ready to undercaot today & be painted tomorrow.
I've use bits from the Dark Eldar Talos.  Just in the background the way it talk about the Maulerfiend looking for any weakness & also though be a cool way to show - it will not die.  Just I can see it pulling metal H beam, bit from building & fort, eating the metal to recover.  Also talking to B&C memeber Vlâdvar The Destroyer over on facebook.

If I can get a few more those parts, I'd like to add them to the hull.  Just I forgot to ask one my friends during Rapid Fire if they mange to bring the parts as it was a busy weekend

None Call of Chaos

 

As said I've enjoyed reading Talons of Horus & currently re-reading the novel.  Lheor Ukris the one who stood out for me & of course IV Legion shown in the novel :D

So this is my version.  I've not went for the Imperial skull with wings.  I went for the FW Khorne body because it look cool & I might possible start a Khorne element to my Iron Warriors, got into a bit more depth & have them as a IW Warband that maybe near wipe out, old ally of my Grand Company?  Or maybe have them as World Eater as I did like painting that test model, again as a warband near wipe out & join allies of the Great Crusade & during the Heresy?  The FW Khorne bodies are most like the main part that going to be use in the army.

 

Lheor Ukris

Lheorvine looks awesome! What parts have you used for him?

[Iron-Daemon Forge]

Lheorvine looks awesome! What parts have you used for him?

 

- Head from the Warrior of Chaos Bloodcrusher

- Body & shoulder pad from FW World Eater

- heavy Bolter from FW heresy set?

- Raptor shoulder pad

- Space Marine legs

- Chosen Champion from Dark Vengance for the knee pad area

- Chains from the Warrior of Chaos hero on monster - Don't really play WFB, prefer Warhammer 40,000 as my main game along with Battlefleet Gothic & Space Hulk.

- Space Marine arm's & Chaos hands, Grey Knight hand for the left arm.

 

Just need green stuff which will get done later today.

[Marqol]

One thing that I have always loved about your Iron Warriors are the chevrons. Especially how you have weathered them, how the yellow chips. How did you achieve this if you don't mind sharing?

Just use the GW medium dry brush & stipple Abaddon Black onto the yellow.  Use foam for the brown & then metal (Runefang steel).

 

[Kizzdougs]

Great photos!! Lheor Ukris looks awesome, can't wait to see him painted :)

Thanks for the reply!

[Iron-Daemon Forge]

Thanks for the comment.

Quick udpate

 

I spent a bit of today painting the Maulerfiend & Lheor Ukris.  Bit gutted I never got eather models finish - so much gold to paint on the maulerfiend model, it like painting the Heldrakes all over again....!!!! 

 

Maulerfiend

http://i1226.photobucket.com/albums/ee412/JFmodel/Iron%20Warriors/DSC08724_zps79d54c7c.jpg

 

Just wanted to get a quick update as it going to be a busy few days.  I'll hopeful get some painting on Saturday.

 

If I can get some more of the Dark Eldar part, I think I will go back & add to the model & add them to the mouth area with the rest of them.  Just few changies I want to do to the model.  It just that way wanted to see what the model like, but it hard to tell until there some paint on it.

Just I think I will remove the nose area if I can get more bits from the Dark Eldar pain talon as one of the memeber from my gaming club said that Rapid Fire about bring some spare parts for me.

Also go over a bit on the Dark Eldar bits I've already added with a bit more green stuff.

 

I did have photos of Lheor Ukris.  But after having a look that it & the model, I'm not to keen on the red as it look a bit off vs my test model I painted a while back & Khârn. 

This bring in the part on why it important to write down how you've painted models.  I've started useing a note book toward the hobby now, just to write down how I paint my main armies.  What units I've got to get done for any hobby challenge & what models I want to add next to my armies.

 

Just trying to rememeber how I painted the red on my test World Eater & Khârn -

 

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v473/ironwarriors/insane%20psycopath/Iron%20Warriors/New%20stuff/DSC07882.jpg

 

So I'll try re-paint the red for Lheor Ukris hopeful during the weekend.  Once I got it all sorted, I'll be make sure to write it down in my hobby note book.

 

Sorcerer:

 

During Rapid Fire, one of my oppent talk about taken a Sorcerer in Lord Narach & his unit of Terminator bodyguards.  Just to help them out a little bit to protect them, since I pretty much always deep strike them, allow me to counter any threats & taken on elite units like Centruions.

 

Conversion idea are going forward, lot of it inspired by the World Eater lord from current Warhammer Vision, where the model shown in John Blache article.  I've just place a order for the finecast Abaddon for the Sword & a few trophies from the model.  I've got Heresy Death Guard - Death Shrouds legs on the way as well.

I've just found Arjack? from the Space Marines, where I'll be useing the loin cloth from that model.

 

It been funny.  I've been asking people about useing Erebus because of all the tattoos.  But all have voted I use the head from the Raven Guard Captain which is cool & I use in my army

 

Raven Guard Captain

http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Warhammer-40000/Space_Marines/Space_Marine-Infantry-and-Accessories/RAVEN_GUARD_SHADOW_CAPTAIN_KORVYDAE.html

 

Erebus

http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/The_Horus_Heresy/HORUS_HERESY_CHARACTER_SERIES/EREBUS_AND_KOR_PHAERON.html

 

Just they commented about the wire fitting in more with that sort of Librarian/Sorcerer look & with the bionic fitting the IW theme.  For me I'm unsure which to go for.  Erebus, the head, the book on the shoulder pad could possible be use & a few scrolls, but it is £57.  Raven Guard Captain, Bionic eye tie in with the IW & just reason people told me when asking them.

I think I might go with the Raven Guard Captain & mean I got money (since it £16 + P&P) for some other parts toward the conversion.

 

So this Sorcerer will have - Familier (Servo Skull?), Terminator armour, Leval 2? & a Combi Plasma.  From what I've seen Bio, one that can possible give my unit feel no pain & eternal warrior sould pretty cool & would help me out a lot.  Also two I5 models in the unit, with the Sorcerer having a Force weapon if it needed & possible Iron Arm from Bio psychic power?

But I am looking forward to converting the new Sorcerer & see how it goes with my Terminators.  Just Terminators are one of my main units, like all my other models have a lot of history from the blood on the battle field.  As said I ended up taken my unit to Rapid Fire after a lot of people said I should because of the Ap2, deep strike & the history I have with the unit.

The Khorne Dog looks COOL!!!

[Daemon2027]

I think I might have a spare Korvydae head lying around, if so I would be happy to post it up to you.

[Iron-Daemon Forge]

Quick update

 

I spent a little bit of tonight re-painting Lheor Ukris & the red turn out a littler better.  More like the test model shown in this army log before & Khârn

Lheor will hopeful be fully painted tomorrow.  I wanted to convert Lheor Ukris after reading the novel - Talons of Horus by ADB.  Maybe in the future I'll convert the rest of the character from Talons of Horus.

 

I also made a start on MkII of Warsmith Abhorred Riddick in mortal forum.

http://i1226.photobucket.com/albums/ee412/JFmodel/Iron%20Warriors/DSC08729_zpscbcafeff.jpg

 

I'll also spend some time tomorrow painting Warsmith Abhorred Riddick.  This will just be for display & just though be nice to have a updated version to see what he would look like now.  With the orignaly Warsmith Abhorred being painted back in 2001.  Also try out some of the effect paints

 

Also the classic Warsmith model

 

http://i1226.photobucket.com/albums/ee412/JFmodel/Iron%20Warriors/DSC08730_zps6868d21b.jpg

 

Again just wanted to add the model to my army & get him painted.  Painted the Warsmith while painting Warsmith Abhorred & Lheor Ukris.

 

Few other things

 

Chaos Knight - Beside Rapid Fire, where my Knight did not make it past turn 2 in 5 out of 6 games   He has been getting more glory to his history.  Just Thursday last week & yesterday I fought against my friend Eldar with three writhknight.  In both games he been so close to taken out all three Knight.  It just been that one lucky roll my friend had. 

Need to look that adding a sort of honour mark possible on the right shine pad?  Paint a set icon to rep what he taken out in combat - note worthing battles.

 

Sorcerer - I've got the parts order & should hopeful build the Sorcerer by the end of next week.  I'm looking forward to the conversion.  Overall best way to think of the Black Captains from Shadow of Mordor game.  I think theme wise he might be the herald for my army, a Equerry for my Warsmith.  Then the usely lack of trust, but still brotherhood with my Iron Warriors grand company.  While the Sorcerer is part of Lord Narach unit of Terminator bodyguards, he will have his own goals as well.

So far bits - Korvydae - Raven Guard captain.  Death Guard shroud legs.  Arjack for the loin cloth.  Standard Space Marine terminator armour front plate with Chaos Terminator back bit.

Finecast Abaddon for the sword & few trophies.  Then tomorrow I'm going to place a order for the finecast Librarian in terminator armour for the left arm.  Also Grey Knight Terminator arm's, great sword.  Also the FW Khorne Terminator lord for the wrist mounted Combi Bolter.  Just need to wait for a lot of these order & bits to arrive in the warp

 

Familiar will be a Servo Skull I was orignaly going to do for Warlord traits.  Then it just sort out trophies.  But right now I got the idea in my head how the model going to look.

 

Just I've really like the idea that my oppent give me during Rapid Fire & adding the Sorcerer to Lord Narach & his unit of Terminator bodyguards.

 

Also I've got DWARF - Winter war next Saturday as well, all money from the event going to charity.  1500pts.  I might take the new Breacher squad with me, part to add new glory to there history.  Other part to free up some points for a few things in the army list.  Beyond that it my standard Throne of Skulls list.  I'm looking forward to the event.

Maulerfiend:  My friend mange to find more Dark Eldar bits.  So I'll possible look that adding them to the model when I get a game vs my friend next Thursday.  Should hopeful have the Maulerfiend finish the day after DWARF: Winter war tournament.

I've enjoy converting & painting Lheor Ukris.  I might get the rest - Telemachon from the III Legion & Khayon of the Thasound Sons Legion converted & painted in the future.

Call of Chaos - Look like one my friends has more Dark Eldar bits & I should be getting them on Thursday.  So I'll get them added to the maulerfiend & start to finish painting the model next week, along with starting my new Sorcerer.
Right now just trying to gather the bits for my Chosen & convert them into my Kill team.  Just need the armour loin cloths that you get from the orks range.
Terminators I'll get for Christmas.  I

 

I'm looking forward to Christmas time, best time for me to get a lot of the Games Workshop hobby done with two weeks & a few days.  There already a lot line up for my Iron Warriors both Chaos & heresy era, Space Wolves & Ravenwing.

Update

 

MkII of Warsmith Abhorred Riddick almost complete, just the wire to paint on the servo army backpack, photo just taken there (8.45pm) along with the orignaly Warsmith Abhorred Riddick I painted back on 17th Nov 2001 that started it all for my Iron Warriors (to the left).  I've got a display base which the MkII model will be place on.  As said I just wanted to paint the model for display & the Chaos Lord model w/Power Axe is one my favrout Chaos models.  I might buy another one in the near future, just built & paint the model as it is, to me it a classic & still rememeber the day it was release along with the Eavy Metal team hold a painting comp in the studio

http://i1226.photobucket.com/albums/ee412/JFmodel/Iron%20Warriors/DSC08746_zps2b0d313c.jpg

 

I've added Blood for the Blood god to the tanks.  Just it help break up the model a bit & in my view - it a battle field, the tanks are going to run over those in there way or shot those with the side weapon who may get to close?

Also a while back when I was orignaly going to try push forward with the Chaos Guard force.  I had a Demolisher tank that got a bit broken & part missing after moving house last year.  I've mange to find the track guards & sort them out & replace the hull weapon with a spare from one of the two tanks just shown there.

So this will get undercaoted & painted during the Christmas holidays, only got five more weeks & then I've two & a half week off.

 

I've also said in the past how games help add history to the units I've got & to my army overall.  Just recently a friend had ask for some photos taken from diffrent tournament of there armies.
Though I add some from my games

2008 - 2009:  Ian who ended up as my Iron Warriors nemesis.  Pretty much since first 5th ed event by ELG for 40k Radio World wide.  Ever single tournament we'd went to, we'd always be drawing against each other, it ended up becoming a running joke that we'd ask what round we would want our game.  So my Iron Warriors & Ian Black Legion have a long history over that year.  Then 2010 with our Space Wolves armies.
Ever single game was hard fought & rank wise it was always close & we both always got a lot of victor points.  My friend Paul would always say I was a aggressive player (way I game/use my armies & never hold back, all or nothing).

 

I'll need to try add a Black Legion trophie on my new IW Sorcerer on his army & add a crusifed Black Legion on any future tanks I add to my army.

 

In fact game vs my friend Paul when he said - from battle report I done in 2008

 

Insane Psychopath is quite an aggressive player btw (the way he plays not his attatude). He did not mention this but when I had 2 transports full of c-marines and a unit of c-terminators arrive 4-12" from my D-cannons almost ontop of both the centre and left objectives.... I was not a happy chappy. I have played his Marine bike army a couple of times too, and he shows the same tendancy. Which is good because there is nothing more boaring than a player that hides at the back and never comits to a do or die stratagy!.

Champion Sevatar Rauth of Lord Narach Terminators Bodyguard unit.  Back before Narach return to my force - during Mk5 era.  Just he always had habit of being last one alive in the unit, always make those chargies & winning those combats, in turn it was always against units hold a object in 5th ed making a game a draw, thanks to him pull the games back

Sadily can not rememeber the oppent name.  From Warhammer World event in 2005, just remember this being a really great & tactical game, really enjoyible & Warsmith Abhorred Riddick doing really well.  It a shame I've not seen them from future Warhammer World events since 2006, as said they where a great oppent & a great person to talk to during the event.  There Chaos army was really cool as well.

There many more & as said they've fought a lot of great oppents over the year.  Lot of great games that have help shape my army into what it is to this day.

 

Finial note

 

- Hopeful my friend bring the spare Dark Eldar bits with them tomorrow & I will be re-building the Maulerfiend head now I got a better idea for the look of the conversion.

 

- I've just pick up a box of Ravenwing Biker.  A while back a friend give me some Chaos biker they got a while back (old light grey plastic).  So I'll be adding two new Battle Brother for the unit I've got, bring them to ten models.

I'm aim to get them ready for a game I might have arrange during the Christmas holidays.  I just need to wait & hear back from my friend.

They should be built during the weekend & ready to paint along with my new Sorcerer

 

- Just gather bits for the Sorcerer.  I think I've almost got the idea finial down.  Just waiting on my Librarian to arrive from GW Mail order & a few other bits like Death Shroud? legs from the Death Guard heresy set.

 

- I'm possible looking into a unit of Iron Warriors Khorne Bezerker.  While I got unit squad 3: Apocalypse, led by Champion Kroege Santarr.  A squad going down the path of Khorne.
I though be cool to have a pure Khorne unit.  Idea sort of have them like - Blood Angels who have Death Company type thing.  Also the FW Khorne part are cool after useing a few of these for other models.  I think I'd like to use the Night Lord Terror squad helmets that I've already use on a few Biker.  I'd try convert them all in running pose.

This would be a nod toward the old Index Astarties article which allowed Iron Warriors 0-1 unit of Khorne Bezerker.  As said after useing FW part on other models - they just look cool.

So I think - there not mindless.  There more shock unit as it where, cause terror, they go beyound.  Also just a friend was saying today to me about useing Cult units.  As they've already converted up some great models for there Chaos army just because they want to try them out in game & they had cool conversion idea, which is the main thing for me that the end of the day.

I'd possible try to get a Destroyer - Heresy era unit, count as Plague Marines, since the type of weapons they'd use during the Heresy.  But that future plan stuff, always somthing on the go for the Iron Warriors as long as there conversion to get done

 

But right now the focuse is on Call of Chaos :D  In five weeks time, I will have two & a half weeks off.  I've got a lot planned for GW hobby wise.  In general just looking forward to another holiday, already miss the one I had in Septemeber :D

Excellent stuff IP.

[KrautScientist]

This thread is always full of excellent stuff, but Lheor Ukris really takes the cake! A flawless conversion (with a perfect choice of head, making him look even better than the artwork, if anything), and the paintjob is very nice as well! More World Eaters, please! :)

Hi IP

        Long time since we spoke, but like what you have done with your army, (though not too sure about the blood splatter), The conversions especially look good.

It been to long, 2007?.  How it been & are you planning on going to any events down in Warhammer World once they've finish the refurbishment/adding more?  Think last time was same year as Vyrus & his Death Guard army in 2006? 

Are you still collecting your Night Lords, I think last time we spoke your still collecting them.

Update

 

Just return from DWARF wargaming club event - Winter War.  This is a single day tournament for both Warhammer Fantasy & Warhammer 40,000.  The tournament started a few year ago & is for charity - Help for Hero's.
Since last year, brought in the Warhammer 40,000 side of thing after Fire Storm another event which DWARF run along with Forgotten Hero's for Warhammer Fantasy.

 

My Iron Warriors took part that 1500pts I went with my Throne of Skulls list...............

 

http://i1226.photobucket.com/albums/ee412/JFmodel/Iron%20Warriors/DSC08808_zps313137b1.jpg

 

It was a really great day.  As always I'm really happy with the best army award.  This year would also see Warhammer player vote for 40k side of the event & for us on the Warhammer Fantasy side.  With a best army & runner up for both side - Warhammer 40,000 & Warhammer Fantasy.  Just a I'd been told a lot of people commented about my army, how they've seen them that other events or from the White Dwarf & talk about some part of the armies like the trophies which sound really cool from what I was told. 

 

Chaos side - I won two out of three games.  I loss to my friend Eldar army with three writhknight.  I really enjoy the game, if anything I just want to see how much damage I can do to there Eldar army in the game before my army wipe out.  It a good challenge.
Lord Narach really show why he where he is today in my Chaos army.

Just two turns, he was the last man standing.  For two turn he made inv save vs all three Wirthknight shooting with (1 turn) Eldar flyer shooting.  It only on the second round I failed a Inv save from the Eldar flyer, but still 9 Inv save, fail one armour save get It will not die (Warlord trait) :D

Then I fought Grey Knights & Guard with a Knight ally.  I was very lucky vs the Guard, as a lone Iron Warriors with Icon held on that all cost for the relic, very lucky for the game to have ended on turn 5.

 

The Demolisher Leman Russ - One of my friends won this in the raffle during the tournament.  But there a Warhammer Fantasy player & just give it to me to help toward my Chaos Guard army I've recently started showing.  Needless to say that help out, mean I just got 3 Leman Russ to get now for my army.

Great one day tournament & a good way to end the year with no other event line up for the Iron Warriors.  Three brillaint games.  Each unit show why there sort main once in my army just with the history that get added to them thanks to the great games.
Lord Narach doing well from the Inv save vs Eldar.  Or in the other games, any time he got into combat kept rolling 6's for the Axe of Blind Fury, slaughter all before him.

 

- I just got the part for re-do part of the maulerfiend.  That should get done tomorrow some point, re-building the face area a little.

- I also got my Biker I'll start building.

- Finial going to make a start on my new Sorcerer.

Update

 

As said a few update ago.  I was not to keen on how the Maulerfiend conversion turn out, but it was that way your unsure until painting had started.  I put the model to one side & talk to few friends get idea & for one of my friends to give me a few more Dark Eldar bits from the Talos model.

After building the Sorcerer yesterday & spare green stuff, instead of having it go to weaste, I though I'd get the Maulerfiend converted up.  Thanks to B&C memeber Vlâdvar The Destroyer for help when talk on facebook about maulerfiend conversion.

Just as said before though out this army log.  I want each unit to be a bit diffrent, to show there history.  For me conversion a better way for me to get the story & theme from my head out onto the models.  Just writing background is a difficult thing for me, to try get what in my head, out onto the paper.  I have semantic pragmatic disorder, a fourm of autism, asperger & difficult with reading & writing.  But it has help me a lot when it came to building from high school, Games Workshop hobby & for my NQ to HND model making course.

I like add a theme & history to each model.  So they can tell the story of my army.  I'm going to aim have somthing diffrent with each Daemonic tank.

Way I see it is, the Maulerfiend will eat defence work during seige & trench warfare to help recover from any wounds or Forgfiend would eat ammo.

 

I should hopeful get the Maulerfiend model finish by the end of this week.

 

Sorcerer - I've still to get a name sorted for him.

 

 

http://i1226.photobucket.com/albums/ee412/JFmodel/Iron%20Warriors/DSC08814_zps6491caa3.jpg

 

Familiar to the right.  This will just be a marker to remind me I've got one in the army list.  Part this is because I've already got Servo Skulls models onto the base on a few of my Iron Warriors models.  So I'd most like forget I had a familier for my Sorcerer, since I've not really use them in game yet.
This was orignaly meant to be a marker for my Warlord trait, somthing I wanted to do last year.  But ended up useing bits for other conversion with some of the marker.  The one use here, I though be good to tie in with the army & it a easy way to remind me about the model so it does not get left behind.  Still suprise I never loss my Chooser of Slain for my Rune Priest in my Space Wolves army.

Thanks to Daemon2027 for the Raven Guard Captain head.  It really help & just help show that sort of strength he got.  I'm really looking forward to converting the Sorcerer this week & most all just happy to get the model converted.  Since my oppent told me that Rapid Fire about useing a Sorcerer with Lord Narach & his unit of Terminator bodyguards.  The idea been there for a few weeks now.  I spent yesterday late afternoon converting up the model.  Also just how the left arm turn out with the Bolter attach & still allow him to cast psychic power.

 

Now it just the painting side.  I want to get a glow effect to show he casting power from the warp.

 

Trophies - Black Legion will be base on my friend Ian army I commented about a few post back.  Eldar might be Alatoic base on my friend & old riviel army or maybe his new current Eldar force?

Nid will be base on my friend who got best army that Rapid Fire two week ago.

Space Marines not sure.  One of them I'd possible paint as Imperial Fist.  The other might be Novamarine or Black Templar or Blood Angels?  There also White Scars?  Guess depend near the time once the other trophies are painted just for contrast.

 

Going to get the new Sorcerer painted & ready for a game I've got very soon.  Really looking forward on useing the Sorcerer in this game.

[Daemon2027]

Get him painted.

 

The additions to the maulerfiend give him a really creepy Cthulhu vibe which is cool.
