Teleport Strike Countdown: T Minus - 8 Days

Well 2 of my (adopted step) sons had Kindergarten Graduation last night so, instead of an hour+ paint time, I got about 30 minutes. I painted purity seals, scrolls, book pages (I forgot the book on the Brother-Captain's belt), and the browns.            With today being wife's birthday, not sure how much I'll get done tonight but I'll have more time Saturday.

Teleport Strike Countdown: T Minus - 9 Days

Well with my 1500 point game vs @The_Oni_of_Hindsight's World Eaters and another friend's Khorne Daemon army coming up in now 9 days, it is time to get cracking on the 3 models I need to paint: Nemesis Dreadknight, Venerable Dreadnought Weapons, and Custom Brother Captain. All models are base coated with Citadel Leadbelcher spray.   Last night I began painting all the gold parts using Army Painter Fanatic Greedy Gold.   Venerable Dreadnought Plasma Cannon, Incinerator, and Dr

I will make them more Grey Knight looking, hopefully.

“I am His sword as He is my armour” Vol 2 Part 2

So there I was working on my Adepta Sororitas  painting my Retributors and building my Sanctifiers (which are finally done). Next thing I know, my Adepta Sororitas are back in display cabinet and Grey Knights are on the table! They just teleported on to my desk…I swear.    See I swore. Truth is I love my Adepta Sororitas army, and Monday my wife and I leave for the UK, Scotland, and Ireland for almost 3 weeks and I don’t want them lying around in our office in case of little hands or p

Grey Knight Projects

When Prognosticars detected that the Great Unclean One, Co'vid, would descended on Khymara Prime and only the Forces of the Grey Knights could stop it. The Prognosticar decided that a Rapid Strike force be deployed and waiting Co'vid's appearance could save humanity. Led by 2nd Brotherhood Landry De Lauzon and 2nd in command by Techmarine Talus and his 2 servitor squads Montessa and Calatrava, Venerable Dreadnought Draper, Strike squads De Caux, De Monglane, and De Hautville, Purgation squad Des

"I am His sword as He is my armour." Vol 2 Part 1

" TO THE RIGHTEOUS WE BRING HOPE. TO THE TAINTED WE BRING FIRE."     Well my group is diving in to Chaos. One member has a full Daemon Army Led by Be'lakor and may have Thousand Sons, one is building Emperor's Children, @The_Oni_of_Hindsight has started World Eaters, and finally one is thinking about building Death Guard.

Reinforcing the Hammer, the preface

Wow, It is December already.....    As I look toward 2025, I am thinking what the future holds in the Terms of the Hobby.  I know part of the Hobby will be going to Warhammer World (and maybe a stop at Element Games has been suggested) in April/ May 2025 as part of my honeymoon excursion across England, Scotland and Ireland. The wife and I are discussing turning Office/ Hobby area into a spiritual room/ Library/ Office and moving hobby area to garage, which means garage remodel which m

"The machine spirit is prepared."

Back in June 13, 2023 I posted about building 5 Land Raiders (here). Well outside of the weapons, I only built a Hybrid Mk IIb Land Raider (Forgeworld, GW, and Blood and Skulls back vents and tracks)  for my Purifiers.        Well playing with different builds and needing Lascannons to deal with armor threats,  another Land Raider was in order.     Finally using the FW brass etch from years gone by plus FW Grey Knights Doors

"I am His sword as He is my armour." Part 3

Welcome to Part 3 of my Nemesis Dreadknight paint log.  I have 3 more to paint (1 Grand Master Nemesis Dreadknight and 2 Nemesis Dreadknights) and I will apply lessons learned to those ones. Most importantly finish build the bases before starting painting. I need to pick up more 3d printed basing bits as it did speed up my basing process vs me making them. I really like the Army Painter Fanatic Effects  Plasma Coil and Data Slate Glows. I may have to repaint all my Nemesis force weapons glow eff

"I am His sword as He is my armour."

Trying to get back in the swing of painting has been tough. I have been dealing with the stress of being a new  (step) dad, wedding planning, normal life, and work. While it is not depression or it may be a slight depression, it kept me from getting motivated in the hobby.  It also could be the pile of Grey plastic sprues, base coated models and boxes of unbuilt models.  So with Imperial Agents coming out I knew I would be going to the LGS to pick up my preorder, I figure why not get a game or t

"Armoured in faith, shielded by devotion and armed with purity of purpose."

My previous blog post I talked about getting third of my  6 kids the start to their Armies (Blood Angels, Genestealer Cult, and Death Guard).  The remaining 3 are a little too young still.    Well Saturday was preorder day as we all know. I had a huge list of what I wanted and only missed out on 2 things.... both the Daemonbreaker and Oath of Damnation novels.       I will get the soft cover or audible versions eventually.   While that was what

"One Unbreakable Shield Against The Coming Darkness"

So last night I sat down to organize my Grey Knight Terminators to see how many more I needed to make my Brotherhood Terminators 10 man......cause why not. There are 2 squads that have 8 men, 2 squads have 7 and the last 2 have 6 men. I have 2 unopened boxes of terminators so another 2 more would allow me to max out the 6 squads with Apothecaries and Ancients I could then add ancients to my Paladin squads.    Below is my Terminator Armor 2nd Brotherhood.

"We fight for the Imperium, not our souls!"

As the threat of Combat Patrol against my kids looms ever so closer, the more I feel the pull towards my Grey Knights. I have lots of little side projects for them including more banner bearers and increasing squad size. Plus all the vehicles I have for them          Plus getting some of the servants from Skaventide to add to my Inquisition.  I think I may have to revisit my Kill Team and I am hoping for a codex soon....

"Too the righteous, we bring hope. To the tainted, we bring fire!"

Well we had a surprise leak today in the form of Imperial Agents Codex pages. And well I am happy to see that, as it justifies me continuing down the path I am headed.   My tenure as an Adeptus Astartes' player has ended.  It's been coming down the line for a while. It started when Scouts were removed as Troops so I was forced to replace them with Phobos. And then the rule of 3 came into effect so I lost scout squads. Now that Phobos are not troops, I see no reason to play Adeptus Asta

Reinforcements inbound!

So last week I talked about ordering some heads, a chimera and a few other things.....well I did order some stuff, before I did inventory on what  I had and what I would need.     First off I ordered my head.

The Daemon has many forms. You must know them all.

You must tell the Daemon from his disguise and root him out from the hidden places. Trust no-one. trust not even yourself. It is better to die in vain than to live an abomination. The zealous martyr is praised for his valour: the craven and the unready are justly abhorred.     Well back from the first family vacation with the kids and had a blast at Disneyland with them.  While there I kept thinking about my projects and more more I leaned into focusing on my Grey Knights a
