    AdMech Patrol #2 - Progress report

    By Bouargh

    Blog entries pass and sometimes look like very similar to some previous ones. It is one of the issues when dealing with army building on base of multiples buy outs of the same Patrol Box...   Yet we might eventually expect some variation if the models are fitted in different fashion, ain´t we?   The Onagre DuneCrawler as already been spoiled in the FOrums, but it has been the major progress of the past week so I will "proudly" republish it there. It is also an unhonorable  wa

    Dakota Minor Defence Corps (PDF)

    By Mike Zulu

    Introduction Like many established Imperium worlds, Dakota Minor has a planetary defence force simply known the Dakota Minor Defence Corps (or DMDC). Most of its number are conscripted from the local population; a small number of citizens willingly join to escape the tedium of farm life that is prevalent on Dakota Minor. The DMDC is organised in a manner similar to Astra Militarum regiments, albeit more limited in their makeup. For the most part, it consists of dozens of infantry battalions

A look in the Rear Mirror - A comparison between releases from last 2 KT seasons

Hi folks,   As we are at dawn of a new season for KT, it is eventually interesting taken a rear-view mirror into the past 2 seasons. Indeed, they have been quite commented due to their differences, at least in some circles where I evolve. General comments, hot and lives, tended to underline a degradation of the delivered content once comparing the Bheta-Decima Season with the Gallow Dark one. Let´s see if it fits.   KT as it looked in Gallow Dark   First r

Joint Progress Report - CTA24 and 12 Months of Hobby

Hi Folks,   I had a dream, a dream where I could enlist different stuff for CTA24 and the 12 Months challenge. It will remain a dream. Time being what it is, a rare and limited ressource, I had no choice than enlist a comon entry for the 2 challenges in July. This common entry is the Negavolt Cultist unit (x 10), to be used as a proxy for Electropriests. I will call them Corpuscarii Zealots. They are designed as something inbetween the electrofists and the power staff, so, up

A bargain at 80€. It defined the main colours for the rest of the stuff as the plan was to develop a compete and

Call to arms- I month gone

I month down  and 2 more to go. Still managed to get a fair bit done in the last 2 weeks:     I finished both tidewall components, a Cadre Fireblade and a squad of breachers, as well as their drone turret and a recon drone for the upcoming Pathfinders, which is when I realised that I hadn't allowed for drones in my original pledge! Not sure if the drone port drones should count for seperate points, but at least iwth these other two that takes my target total up to 120pts. Th

In the embrace of Nurgle….

Another son has decided on his army. After taking him to lgs and running into friends I have not seen in 4 years or so, one of them converted him from Necrons to Death guard. So he picked up the following Models:     Lord of Virulence      Nauseous Rotbone, Plague Surgeon.   He loves Transformers, Robots, and He-man so I figured it would be Tau or Necrons. He really liked the Necrons but when he saw Mortarion and the Great Unclean one he was hook

Intermission 2 (WIPs)

Nothing very fancy from me today, just a potato cam images of some WIPS.   Two Khymaran Veterans. I might even finish them at some point. These are deliberately rough as a badger's chuff, and I'm a little fed up with myself, since despite practice, I just couldn't get the battenberg shoulder scheme down. In the end I settled for a mixed veg melange of red and yellow as their pauldrons would be if they were in normal livery.   The pic robs the guy on the right of his MK VII-es

Infernus Druht

Elements of a Infernus Druht, unknown Fyrd, Greymanes chapter.   The totemic maul on the leftmost line-brother's shoulderpad represents service at the Defense of Rymr. Though contrary to the expectations of the Hearthspake, the Greymanes arrived unlooked-for to assist the Votann of that world in battle against Chaos marauders. A fierce battle, but ultimately a victorious one for the Fyrds gathered there.

Da Clothy Bits

Been a couple of weeks since my last post. Progress has felt slow, but in gathering up the pictures for this post I've realized how much I've actually accomplished Whenever I'm painting orks, I always like to keep in mind that unlike most other factions, Orks don't have a "uniform". To that point, whenever I'm painting up a group of them I always want to make sure that their pants/belts/bags/bands/etc don't match across the group. There can be overlap obviously, but there isn't a manufac

New miniature case!

So I finally upgraded to another miniature case.   My battlefoam 352 case is still in good condition but I did not want to drop the extra money on sliders magna racks when it was too small already. The Battlefoam case is super nice and the slider is the way to go but the price point is super high.        My Large old GW case is great for pewter models but plastic not so much.        The new case: jucoci

Ky'Vash Recon Cadre - Piranha Skimmer

KY'VASH RECON CADRE PIRANHA SKIMMER TX4 'Piranha' Skimmer.   Despite being an older design, the TX4 Piranha has remained in constant service within the T'au military since the time of the Second Sphere Expansion. A light, but combat-capable grav-speeder, it serves as an all-terrain scout and harasser, often in support of Stealthsuit and Pathfinder teams. Ky'Vash forces most often field the Piranha with a hull-mounted fusion blaster for tank-hunting, though it is unsuitab

KY'VASH RECON CADRE CADRE FIREBLADE Cadre Fireblade Shas'el Yr'anto.   Not all warriors of the Fire Caste seek to don the 'Mantle of the Hero' - a T'au Battlesuit - once their time amongst the infantry has come to an end. Those with the aptitude and inclination may instead remain on foot, leading the bulk of T'au military forces in up-armoured, quasi-powered armour based on the standard Firewarrior raiment. Such warriors are - usually, though not always - limited to the

So it begins….

Well a trip to my FLGS with my soon to be 11 year old (step)son did not end as I had expected.    Originally it was supposed to be a quick trip in for some paint but that did not happen. I let him walk around and check out the store and soon he found some models he liked…much to my surprise. He liked the bike models in eldar and marines, liked the Guard for being the military but ultimately he saw the ridge runner, jackals and the characters of the Genestealer cult.  He decided he wanted

JUNE - Where did that month just go?

How is it already July? What happened in June?    Let's get the elephant in the room out the way. This is going to be a short blog entry. Next to nothing hobby related has happened in June. The best photo I had for this month's cover is an unpainted Land Fortress. I haven't completed a single model this month, representing a bit of a stall in my mission to remove the pile of shame/opportunity.   But that's not to say it's all for bad reasons. It's largely down to the fact tha

Greymanes Infernus Druht Leader (WIP)

The Greymanes wear their Chapter's colours with pride. Their battle-plate is predominantly a dark grey, with pauldron insets typically being red. However, a wide variance in heraldry is permitted and often seen amongst their ranks. Some Greymanes druhts might use pauldron heraldry akin to the pack markings of the Space Wolves, while others still use Codex-standard markings. As well, whether or not the Chapter's or Fyrd's markings are prominently displayed is left up to the individual Battle-Brot

"A Heretic may see the truth and seek redemption."

So after going through my Models the other day I have 3 built Penitent Engines, 1 built Mortifier, an unopened Penitent Engine/ Mortifier box, 6 Arco Flagellants, 17 Repentia, 2 Repentia Superiors, and both Blackstone Fortress Priests, plus a custom one.  So enough for a Penitent Host Detachment.  I need to get a few more models to round it out (I would like more Arco Flagellants) and want to convert multi piece Canoness into a "Repentia Canoness/ Palatine"

Working on some canned fodder

Today I am doing some base coats on my thorakitai, some IVth command units, doing a test scheme for IVth allied mechanicum, and getting a commison done for the Zardu and his boys   Was doing a conversion for a myrmidax archmagos (the domitar in the pictures, but then this guy shows up for sale..... well... I can't revert my model back into a domitar, but I can probably convert him into an artalax? hmm...

The absence of faith is the mark of the weak.

As much as I love Horus Heresy and Necromunda, 40k is what got me into the hobby, along with my friend @The_Oni_of_Hindsight convincing me to play, was the cool armor of the Space Marines. As I began the journey of 40k, I found Sisters of Battle and I was hooked.....1997 seems so long ago...it was too.    Fast forward to now. Like many of us, I not happy with 10th Ed of 40k, for various reasons. With the drop of the Space Marines and losing all my battleline, since I played all Phobos

Call to arms- 2 weeks in

I mentioned in my last blog post that I was intending to participate in this years call to arms, well I've gone and done it! The extent of my pledge can be seen here: Call to arms 2024 - Drakheart   Whether I have bitten off more than I can chew remains to be seen, but after just over 2 weeks work, I think I'm making reasonable progress, just not sure if I'll be able to keep it up.     Anyway here's what I've managed to achieve so far:     I started

Call To Arms Update #3

Well I hoped to get more done this weekend then I actually did but between the health issues, kids, errands, work issues, and in the end result I made a mental mistake that resulted in my not being able to prime the models. I washed the models put them in the tub to dry and because of the cats I put the lid on it.....which did not allow them to dry fully.      With the 4th of July this week here in the United States, I have a 4 day weekend so I plan on getting them all primed,

Ky'Vash Recon Cadre - Ghostkeel Stealth Battlesuit

KY'VASH RECON CADRE GHOSTKEEL STEALTH BATTLESUIT XV95- 'Ghostkeel' Battlesuit, piloted by Shas'vre Ay'aata.   The still-developing industrial base of Ky'Vash precludes the deployment of some of the largest, and most expensive T'au battlesuits, as does the operational preference of the Sept Fire Caste. Having developed an identity that favours a mix of stealth, ingenuity, and a certain rugged self-sufficiency the most dramatic of T'au hyper-weapons have proven to be a poo

Intermission 1 (Desert Bases)

Just a quick update from me today. Since I had a few moments in this busy week, I thought I'd tackle some low-hanging fruit for the Sigmar VI project and do some bases, this is generally because the Howling Griffons are Imperial and therefore lazy, where the Secessionists have to work for a living - er, I digress.   I haven't really done many of the desert-themed ones before, so it was something nicely different from the lunar Khymara set ups I've been working on, and the warm tones ar
