    By Bouargh

    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

    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

    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

    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

Why so?

Ok, I wanna marine army, though I don't like them for years. I think I hate them for years. I like new range( I leave hobby at the end of 7th, and all primaris stuff are new range for me), most of the models are really great. But my damn brain required justification. Like cool mini or not isn't main problem. Why this guys are fighting? How they become what they are? Why this His Holly Unicorns chapter took this name? Why they are use this and that combat doctrines? Etc, etc. Aaaand in most

Suffer Not the Alien - The Deathwatch Kill Team

Hello Frater, its been a while! After finishing the Syther Squad I worked on a few non-GW related projects for a game set in a galaxy far far away. Between those going a bit longer than anticipated and the Holiday season arriving I haven't had a ton of time or energy for a post. That isn't to say I haven't been productive though, in a rarity for me this will be a one-and-done post as I completed the deathwatch kill team from the Tombworld box a little while ago.   The kit is pretty awe

Rogue Trader Entourage – Part 2

Hi folks,   As I introduced it previously [Not GSC - Rogue Trader Entourage Part 1 - How to pretend not starting an army - The Bolter and Chainsword], I have recently bought some new models to be painted and included in my Imperium forces under the form of an Inquisitorial retinue and some RT Entourage.   My objective was, initially, to get back in service some iddled miniatures I have here or there as an Inquisitorial Retinue. But this trend led me to expanding the option wi

"The Grey Knights have come on behalf of the Holy Inquisition"

So Mother-In-Law is still in town for a little longer but will be moving out here Mid January, as her and her husband's place will be finished 1st of the year and only 90 second drive away from My wife, kids, and me.    With her here, helping with our newborn (1 month old today) adopted Daughter and the boys, I took full advantage of building some models....or more of working on models.      They are not attached to bases but will be pinned to them for durability.

Veterans of the 4th Household

The Hearthguard:   The most trusted veterans of each Household form the personal retinue of their Warleader.   Sometimes these experienced warriors will act as squad leaders for line units, at others they serve as bodyguards for their commander. As the Marines Adamant never use dedicated Assault Squads, when a position must be taken the Hearthguard are also often used as linebreakers and breachers, a role at which they excel.     Whether clad in power arm

Day 1: Buying & Clipping

Due to problems with Tariffs, International Shipping and other nonsense my Cyclops Demolition Vehicle is now permanently living with US Customs.   So I have 3 days to buy, build and paint a vehicle... bought it, clipped it... and have to somehow paint it on Thanksgiving. I'm sure my family won't mind.     Day 1: Bought a Firestrike Servo-Turret for the Tanksgiving Event. I'm now clipping the model off the sprue.

Rites of Armoring

"I am the Hammer!"   The armoring serfs are putting on body glove. The Fiber muscles will enhance my strength. The body glove will allow me to interface with my armor. It will protect me and help me remain stable, and interface with my weapons.    "I am the sword in His hand."   Next is my Aegis Terminator armor. The Powered Exoskeleton, has been worn by my Brothers before me. Their names are etched inside the chest armor to remind me that I am not Immortal.

Not GSC - Rogue Trader Entourage Part 1

Hi folks,   For a while now I have pledged to myself a kind of oath of honor: I will not buy any model that is (too) obviously deemed to be shelved out a short/medium range. It looks like I have failed with the pledge and betrayed that oath. Indeed, I have just acquired a box of Navy Breachers. And a set a characters from various GW settings in order to gather my very own custom made Rogue Trader Entourage. But I am not playing GSC, even if, as you will see, some or even most of t

Canticle of Absolution

"Praise the Emperor for His sacrifice, as He endures so shall we. We who are hunters of Daemons shall strive in His name eternally. We, the Order of the Hammer, shall delve into dark shadows, We shall seek out the tainted, we shall pursue the vilest evil. It is we who stand guard, our eternal watch shall not fail, For we are the Ordo Malleus!" I am surrounded by Grey Knight Chapter Serfs and Servo Skulls. We are in my arming chambers aboard the Sword of Titan, Strike Cruiser.

"I long for death, not because I seek peace, but because I seek the war eternal."

Well I kept going back and forth on building Imperial Fists or Exorcists for my Crux Terminatus box.  And my Tortuga, basing, and cloaks all arrived for my Grey Knight Project.  Still waiting on my Army Painter order to arrive, but Spray Gunner order arrived so I'll be setting up quick disconnects on my airbrushes. I really need to change my Spray booth filter, this week too.    It was a cold and wet few days here and glad I had water traps on my airbrushes and compressor. Even paintin

Siege of Mezoa campaign launch

My local group tends to run 1-2 loosely themed campaigns a year. The first one of 3.0 is themed around the Siege of Mezoa. The campaign centers around control of 3 rings of loyalist fortifications (Mezoa Primus, Outlying Defenses, Orbital Defense Grid). Each fortification gives a different bonus to the loyalists. The traitor's objective is to gain control of all three. The loyalists can end the siege if they are able to maintain control of all three defensive rings and complete a special apex mi
