About this blog

Yes, the name is boring (I'm bad at naming things:sweat:). 

 

This is my attempt to keep myself on task with the hobby and showcase projects without having to create a new WIP thread for each one. 

 

For those of you familiar with my projects in the barracks and forge I intend to keep both of those updated as I post here as well. 

 

My intention is that by having everything all in one place I can help combat the absolutely glacial pace of my updates to the B&C. 

 

Armies to expect: 

  • Imperial Guard
  • Imperial Militia
  • Inquisition
  • Space Marines (40K)
  • Iron Hands (30K)
  • Alpha Legion (30K)
  • Necrons (maybe)
  • Whatever other madness or project I dream up between writing this and when you see it on the blog 

 

So without further ado.....

Iron Hands Rhino

I have finished up a 5th rhino for my Iron Hands:    I've gone with a different dozer blade and a havoc launcher on this one as it is for the Graviton Shredder Support Squad so it stands out and I don't lose track of them. The Havoc Launcher provides a bit of anti-infantry firepower to a squad which is very anti-tank focussed. As I can only run the Graviton Shredder squad in a Head of the Gorgon list, this will only get a run out then (unless I buy some plasma guns or something t

Jetbike Command Squad

I finally finished my jetbike command squad for my Iron Hands using the now OOP Iron Hands Mark III Torsos, Shoulder Pads, and Heads:    Their weapons and shields come from a variety of sources:  1. The power maul on the left model as you look at the photo is from the new 30k melee weapons upgrade set.  2. The power fists are from the Mark IV kit.  3. The banner is from the old Cadian Command Squad with the detailing filed off and a brass rod as the banner pole.

Land Raider Proteus

I have also assembled and started painting a Land Raider Proteus fto carry around my Gorgon Terminators (this is the only shot I have of it right now). The Cataphractii Terminators will be in the Phobos so I won't forget which unit is in which transport on the tabletop.    I have to say this is a much nicer kit to put together than the Phobos Land Raider, the parts just fit together much better. I have started painting and will post a photo of the progress soon.

Jetbike Standard Bearer

I have gotten a bit more progress done on the jetbike command squad:      The torso is the MK 3 IH one from FW, the combat shield is from the (now OOP) assault squad for 40K and the banner is from the old Cadian Command Squad (with the decals shaved off and a brass road as a banner pole) the hand for the banner is from the 40K marine tank gunner arms with a hole drilled through, and it is attached to the arm from the jetbike squad.

Iron Hands Predator

I gave started work on a predator for my Iron Hands:      When I bought this it was the only plastic Predator available but I also like the more square aesthetic (particularly with the IG dozer blade).

Iron Hands Jetbikes

A bit more progress on the jetbike command squad for my Iron Hands:      Two bikes are already fully assembled with their riders (one with power maul, the other with power fist).  These three (and the one I have finished since taking the photo) will be the praetor, the standard bearer and 2 chosen.

Iron Hands Tanks

I have finished off painting the Land raider phobos for my Cataphractii Terminators:    I have also made a start on the Sicaran Battle Tank:    Once these are done, I will move onto the Predator and the remaining Rhino before tackling the infantry (some of whom are fully painted).

Land Raider Progress

I have managed to get some painting done and the Land Raider for my Cataphractii terminators is done (at least for the moment while I move on to more pressing pieces of the pile of shame):

Iron Hands Land Raider

I have managed to get a bit of painting done on a Land Raider Phobos to cart around my cataphractii terminators:      I like the aesthetic of this tank and it goes really well with the Mars pattern rhino chassis vehicles I have for my Iron Hands, but it is an old kit and it shows during assembly. With the Proteus now in plastic I might get one of those for the Gorgons.

Legion Command Squad

I finally got around to making a decent start on the jetbike command squad for my Iron Hands A WIP shot:      And the final product     The old resin mark three torsos are a bit smaller than the mark six ones that come with the kit, particularly around the waist. Some greenstuff will be needed to fill in a few gaps, but overall it works pretty well.  Edit: Spelling.

Forge Lord

Here's a custom forge lord for my heresy era Iron Hands:     The body is a cyborg prime body from Kromlech (I actually got this as a freebie in an order for other bits). The servo harness is from Anvil Industry (it's the exo lord scale mechanical arm conversion kit). The axe is from the space marine assault squad and the arm holding it is from the current MK3 kit. The right shoulder pad is from a plastic heresy kit (I think the MK3 but could be MK4). The head, nemesis bolter and
