    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

Venerable IV/V: Steel

Right arm is glued on it's place. Finished ammo box and added some metals on leg. After the horror of barrels other parts are going smooth.  Im add metals in different styles gloss, matt, damaged, dark, light. Tbh it would be faster just make him with one approach, but this "project " is more like training model. Next would be painted parts like barely above ammo box and I'll switch to power fist which I don't know how to paint  i. Worn and torn metal on fingers and armor

Red Hunters- 3rd Company Armory

Non permittant vivere impuritus."   “Suffer Not the Unclean to live.”     The Red Hunters Chapter is constantly at war, on missions, and serving as bodyguards for Inquisitors. As such, resupply is sometimes infrequent, with their Chapter homeworld, Montsegnur, being on the edge of the Segmentum Tempestus near the Ultima Segmentum. As the Red Hunter's forces needs to be become combat ineffective, they will return to Monesegnur  When resupply is required for armor the Red Hunte

Venerable III/V: Heat

That was easy. I've expected it would turns some horrible brush fencing on tips of barrels but it's turns pretty easy. I coat it black. Once it  dries put few glazes of deep magenta. And wait again. Put some white highlights here and there  and add few glazes of night blue.  And another glaze of magenta on top and sides.  For reference I uses my stove pipe (:

...over and over again expecting... paintjob to change... Ok, Insanity is working just fine. Got result. Barrels looks nice. Now it's need a lot of fixes, secondary reflections like Dread's hull or base elements. It's great experience and challenge.   Would be glad for criticism and feedback.

Did I ever tell you what the definition of insanity is? Insanity is doing the exact... same thing... over and over again expecting... Something to change... That. Is. Crazy   Looks like I bite more than can chow.  Heh, for some reason I had feeling I'm kind of artist and can do anything I can want. There is 4th attempt to paint cursed Gatling cannon. First 3 are just a mess. Im add base coat, it's all right. Add first layer and it's almost fine, add second and get all ribbed tub

"Non permittant vivere impuritus."   Well I built some more models for my Red Hunters, just some Armageddon Intercessors and the Land Speeder.  And I did more painting on 3rd Company Captain Razak.   Five Intercessors      No conversions just a straight forward build. Not a bad build and like the poses. 5 down 5 to go.    Land Speeder     Pretty straight forward build. I did have to glue the tip of the Onslaught Cannon. I did

CtA26 - Ironstriders

Hi Folks,   Bastille day left me with enough time to complete 2 additionnal models from my pledge: the Ironstriders.   These models were in stockpile for a while, more than 2 years, but I was not very enthusiastic for painting them: I used to play at sizes where I have enough models to fulfill most tactical role and I am one of those convinced that Striders behave well mostly at small size when tooled up as Ballistarii. With the release of the Hastarrii, I am even more c

"Non permittant vivere impuritus."   I finally got around to painting a Test model for my Red Hunters Space Marines. Of course I can not paint a basic model for as my test bed, I have to use my Armageddon Captain. Right now he is what I am calling "I swear he is not a Blood Angel Space Marine" stage. Honestly this stage will last until his decals are added. This will go for most of the army.    III Company Captain Razak of the Red Hunters Chapter     Paints use

Inquisitor "Ares" Updated part 2

Just a small update on Inquisitor "Ares"     Added some accessories, a back Icon, and found a hand to add to his stormbolter.  I have the head on a piece of metal to ease the painting and well it was long enough to go through the torso into the legs.  I want to redo the hose on his bionic arm to is force axe, and add more wires to spots. I might give him a Servo Skulls or something else.    =][= Ordo Malleus Inquisitor-Lord Martyn Odum =][= Aka "Ares"

Lists for the List God: Hive Fleet Asmodeus 2026

Hello fine folks of B&CS. We are back again with Lists for the List God. Today we are looking for my plans for the largest of my armies, the Tyranids. Now my Tyranid collection is heavy on the monsters and mid sized bugs, and light on the smaller gribbies. According to the tournament data that has been out for a few weeks Tyranids are looking decent. Out of my 4 project, they look the most competitive. So lets look at my 2 lists.   Xenos - Tyranids - Crusher Stampede, Warrior Biofo

Armageddon Box Update 1 - Heatwaves, Holidays, and Heavy Bolters

Well, between the current UK heatwave and going away on holiday, progress on the Armageddon box has been a little slower than I'd hoped. Now that things have settled down, though, I'm finally starting to crack on with it.   I've started with the first unit, the Heavy Bolter Eradicators. These are part of my plans for the Space Marines and will be painted as Unnumbered Sons Ultramarines. I still need to add some weathering powders to blend the lower legs into the bases, but I'll do

Venerable IV: Core

A bit of update. Done with sarcophagus, exhaust and reactor. For sarcophagus I go with a bit bluish steel it's gloss and a bit reflective. At least it's reflect three pegs on the top and white lamp on the right.  For exhaust and reactor i choose a satine finish. I like result but yellow reflections on reactor. Should I make them bigger and run across top edge?  Or leave them as is?  Exhaust is just fine. You see it's metal it's scratched.  Also should I add some tints to

"You must face the truth squarely and without flinching from duty. Our enemies are mortal no longer. Any glimpse of humanity they may show is merely a deception. Dedicate this weapon, given into your hand at the behest of the Emperor, to their destruction. Regard its function as your only duty: you live only to purge the Daemon. Take up your rod and staff, your armour and psycannon, and go forth." — Lectures to the Ordo, Inquisitor Galbus Heer

Venerable III: a bit of progress

A little update. I'm finished general work on the dread. Yellow is good enough and now damaged. I won't it be metallic so damage made a la ceramite is visible under the paint.  Now I started metal parts and first is a launcher on the top. I wanna it polished and reflective. It's work fine almost from all directions. As far as it's a game piece, nemesis for my angel of death team so it's should be enough( but I would be glad for honest feedback and criticism, you don't make me afraid)

Job's is a Big'Un - Castellan Knight - Part IV

Hi Folks!   Final entry of this series with a completed tiny titan. Or alike.   The paintjob has finally been quite straight forward and easy to complete. I followed the scheme I have used in previous years for my Styrix freeblade and latter with its 3 Moiraxes minions. Seizing the opportunity of a big bargain, I have added this year 1 Castellan (the star of the day) and 2 Armigers that will need some love soon.   Enough words, here come the beast:
