    XIVth Legion build

    By W.A.Rorie

    So am I back from Indiana. I have to head back to move In-Laws into a Retirement Center, in a few weeks. And of course everything goes sideways at work moment I get back. So hobby time has been non existence. Silver Lining is LGS not get Saturnine until Monday, so I can get everything I need to do first i.e. my XIXth Legion and Exorcists  Call to Arms Vows, that I have not started. And won't have time this weekend.   I did start on building one of My XIVth Legion Commanders, not sure w

    Wrapping Wreckas

    By zulu.tango

    Hit the throttle on the Wreckas last week. I've been painting pretty slowly this year all things considered, decided to change that with this project. Finished up free-hand on a few items, got the squigs painted up, did the bases and oil washes last week resulting in a final project I'm pretty happy with!    I dug out some of the leftover terrain bits I had from the sector imperialis/Chalnath terrain. I put a fine terrain paste around those bits and then put in some sand to act as larg

    Jagieŀŀo inspects their prizes

    By GSCUprising

    The Resistance have finally captured the war machines they believe they require to make their stand.   Brutus, the Malcador, reliable, dependable the spine of their battleline. She will not fail them. She will hold the line, her battlecannon roaring, her sponsons blazing as she paves the way for the Resistance's advance. The Iron Duke, his twin Earthshaker cannons blasting holes in the enemy's fortifications. He guards those retreating and the wounded behind his massive blast shield

    Hi Folks,   Today’s blog entry is a little bit specific as it deals with something different from my usual inputs: instead of reporting hobbying progress, I will talk about a trail I did for a new technique (à la TITH – i.e. something that is not new in general but new for me).     The technique is often reported on purpose of adding details and create battle damages or war-torn marks on miniatures. But beyond painting damages, the sponge might be used on purpose of

ELUSIVE SALVATION: THE 164TH

The Valkyrie bucked hard in the crosswinds, warning runes screaming across the cockpit bulkhead. MASON heard the pilots arguing over the vox—too much flak, too much turbulence, too much everything.   “Ghost Lead, negative drop. Repeat, negative drop,” the pilot barked. “You jump now, you die before the chute arms.”   MASON keyed his helm mic. “Open the ramp.”   “Absolutely not—”   He didn’t wait. Manual override hissed beneath his hand. The ramp locks clan

U.F.O. 2 - Look who's coming for dinner

Hi folks, Remember this Unidentified Flying Object?:       Well, after years waiting to receive some care and attention, it has been sentenced to paint. Kudo to Jokaero Painting Challenge… I went for a black and yellow scheme, at least for the Rokkits and the oversized chaincleaver. Because at this size it ain’t choppa nor chainsword anymore, is it? And the banner for this article fits the scheme too, did you notice? Such a sense of detail… Because it is better get

The flying circus

No choice

His thoughts and feelings were in disarray. Who knew all turned this way? No answer in the silence of the empty strategium. He did what he shall. Didn't he? Headed to the place he was at ease. He locked the door and engaged the emergency override. No one can open it from without. He was sitting in a chair when something blew outside. He rose his head in ignorance, his glance was void. Then cracking sounds outside, again and again. “Thermal deformation”, - suggested his mind.  Some

The Gnostari Dominion - The Ironkin March

Veyr Durmla - Einhyr Champion

Veyr Durmla, champion of the Einhyr Hearthbands. Not originally a member of the Gnostari Dominion, Veyr was first a Hearthkin warrior of the Greater Thurian League. During a pioneering expedition, the Thurians rescued a broken Arvus shuttle that had been taken by Orkish pirates. Inside the shuttle was the Gnostari miner Trokk, later to become High Kahl Trokk the Denier. Veyr was impressed by Trokk's determination and future plans, so joined the nascent High Kahl's side as a personal guard.

Trokk the Denier - High Kahl

High Kahl Trokk. Ork-Slayer, Man-Hunter, Reaper of the Damned. None of these appellations compare to the one that has come to define this deadly and enigmatic warrior.   The Denier.   The Ironkin who became more in order to protect his family.      A miner like many others, Trokk was nearly destroyed when the plague ravaged the Shattered Star Kindred. The only Ironkin left alive on an asteroid camp after an Ork raid destroyed what remained of the Kindre

More Sicarians

Hi Folks,   A small update for the AdMech of mine with 5 Sicarians comings as a reinforcment of my existing unit:     And here is the whole mob with former and new lads banding together. Main difference, while subtle, is the baseing colour: I ran out of Vallejo Tanned Earth and had to change for AK. There is a small difference as AK is a tad darker in tone. It has however a far better covering power.     Next steps for my AdmEchs will be one of

Unoffical Fan Made Data Cards- Part 1

So as my group begins to ramp up for our Campaign/ Crusade, I am looking at ways to make it more unique and add Characters.    1st up is my take on a Lieutenant in Terminator Armor       Model would be 80 points.    In the WarComm article Nick adds New Ultramarines to his vast collection we see he has 2 Lieutenants and an Apothecary Biologis.

12 MoH - Nov'25 progress report

Hi Folks,   Long time no news, real life matters keeping me busy. And Winter's coming led to my hobby space being explused from the glass house. I am therefore back in the main room that I have to share with the living room TV in the background, dinner's table, which is also homework's table some times,... I therefore organized, or rather improvized, a hobby tray. Thank you shoe boxes:     This has some impact on my productivity, mainly because light is poor and da

The 164: Team Dossier

THE 164TH: Team Dossier      AQUILON TEMPESTOR MASON   Role: Squad Lead   Weapons: Hotshot Lascarbine and a Tempestus Dagger     MASON never traded up for the traditional officer’s pistol and sabre. He sticks with the same lascarbine he’s carried since his first drop, and the squad trusts him for that. He keeps a sealed relic-vial of Armageddon ash under his chestplate—grainy grey dirt Yarrick himself once trod on.   MASON’s leadership

Army Shots for November 9 Day

I try every few years to post up an army shot on November 9th, this year I planned ahead and actually got everything laid out to get a few shots. Much as I wanted to bring out both of my tables, my living room only fits one these days, so I had to get a little creative and stagger the shots. This is pretty much everything save one drop pod that I completely forgot on my shelf. Without further ado, presenting the November Warriors, The House Garaipena, and a couple of sisters from the Order of th

Oops, I didn't again....

Well I have been painting again and it was time to pick up more paint....     I already was suing this on my Horus Heresy Raven Guard and as I have been working on my 40k Imperial Fists, I figured why not.     I picked this up at a LGS for a good price and out of the colors included in the box I had 2 already, Matt Black and Gemstone Red. Need to pick up the remaining colors for White Triad and some of the other triads but this was a great pick up for th
The building uprising of Prawa V

Is it secure?

Again, mid-story Comes the Sandstorm, we see three of our main characters interacting with the mechanical beasts they have unearthed. This also features one of only two appearances of the Patriarch. Why so few? I prefer to focus on the human interactions between characters rather than the full, cosmic horror. But, it's important to have him there, always watching, always waiting.   Anyhow, constructive criticism welcome, as always.   =====     The Macharius Vul
The building uprising of Prawa V

A moment to exhale

So, following @W.A.Rorie's advice, I am going to start tagging these little vignettes and scenes with the appropriate story they are from. I will be going back and ensuring others are tagged appropriately, so there's some consistency and readers do not mix up one with the other.   So, this is from about midway through Comes the Sandstorm, and occurs after the assault on Complex 73. I think this is the first bit I've posted from that particular portion of the story.   I've had
