    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

    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

    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

How to pretend not to start a GSC army - Part 5

Hi folks,   As a fith act in this series, here is today's addition: a Goliath truck to be used qs q Tqurox proxy. Becquse remember thqt I am not starting a GSC army... But is there someone that really believing this?   In CtA23, year ago so, I painted some kit bashed Scions from old plastic scouts. These lads deserves a vehicle to go at heart of the fight. and if it comes with some fire power, better. A Taurox fits the role but... I had this Goliath Truck from the Patrol box,

How to pretend not to start a GSC army - Part 4

Hi folks,   As a fourth act in this series that I left aside for a while, here are some progresses to be shared: the kit bashed HW teams have been painted.   As previously ibntroduced in the second part of this serie ( or was it the first one?), using a single kit of ooP Cadian HW plus GSC cultists and extra crew members from the GOliath kit allows reaching 18 footsloggers and puting in service 3 types of HW. In my case; ML; Autocannon and mortars. I like the vibe of the last

"We have a Valkyrie down, I repeat we have a Valkyrie down"

As I continue down the Militarum Tempestus rabbit hole, I have plans for crashed Valkyries as terrain pieces. So looking up the photos I found some good ideas                   and all these images stoked the flames of the project. Along with My fascination of the events of Operation Gothic Serpent aka "Black Hawk Down" I definitely want to do this project. While talking to some friends, they agreed an

54th Psian Jakals, Metal Head Armory Slow Grow League pt 1

So my gaming group is going to do a Slow Grow League to help teach my kids 40k. Starting at 500 pts and having to add 250 pts at every increase. So stepping out of the power armor and terminator armor, I have decided to play my Psian Jakals.    So with that in mind, starting games being 500 points:   -Militarum Tempestus Command Squad Tempestor Prime Command Rod (Warlord) Medic Master Vox Plasma and hotshot volley gun Scions   -Tempestus S

54th Psian Jackals Projects

So looking toward the future I will be focusing on my 54th Psian Jackals with Metal Head Armory doing a Slow Grow League. I have plenty of projects planned for the army so I figure it is time to plan out the projects:     Paint Scions- I have 30 scions waiting to be painted and still need to get a few more scion boxes (5 or 6) but  I need 2 for Valkyrie Heavy Bolter gunners* and 4 Torsos for Tauros Venator**, so that is 6, plus I want to options if I decide to drop the 3 Vox

54th Psian Jackals Part 3

It has been a few weeks since I have touched my 54th Psian Jackals and have been focused on my Exorcists Chapter of Adeptus Astartes. Well that is gonna have to change this weekend.      Tempestus Aquilions will be acquired this weekend.  Unfortunately I won't get much time to work on them due to working extra shifts at work.    Yesterday the rules for the Aquilions were released for 40k       and of course Datasheets

I have an idea.....

So as the build of my 54th Psian Jackals Militarum Tempestus Army continues I keep looking at what will be added in the future. Scions and Aquilons for sure. Maybe another Commissar, Primaris Psyker, Regimental Priests (doubtful since this will be updated with new codex). I have 2 of the 3 Taurox Primes and 2 Valkyries. I want to keep the army leaning towards rapid insertion, fast units and non standard Astra Militarum units. While looking I found this:     While it is legen

54th Psian Jackals Part 2

Well that was a good hobby weekend.....well 4 day weekend. My Fiancé had PRK (Photorefractive keratectomy is a laser eye surgery similar to LASIK), since she already had LASIK, done a few years ago so she was down most the weekend so I got to do hobby time while watching the kids, with exception of Monday due to wedding planning meetings and Friday was her surgery so once we were home it was hobby time.    Friday while waiting for her procedure to finish I purchased some items to make

54th Psian Jackals, Tempestus Scions

So as build more Scions, the more I realize that I originally planned them as Inquisitorial Stormtroopers, I have been moving more and more away from that idea.  With only 5 models painted, it would be the perfect time to repaint them.   I love the helmets I am using and the skull war paint on the face plates      So the 54th Psian Jackals make the most sense          Good old Duncan had a super easy paint technique for the Psian Jacka

"Fighting soldiers from the sky! Fearless men and women, who jump and die!"

Was planning on painting Purifiers or my Paladins, but found myself working on my Militarum Tempestus, 909th Battalion Charlie Company "Hell Rain".      I have been putting this off as my Tempestor was illegal and I would have to change out his Powerfist for a knife . I built another squad of 5 guys, and have 10 more to build and ordered another 10 more guys.        So as it stands I have planned a 5 man squad (plasma/ volley) attaching to Command (pl

How to pretend not to start a GSC army - Part 3

Hi folks,   After last post presentation of the HW squads, we left the story to a point where I was left with the Truck and 11 bodies to be kitbashed.   The Truck, as a proxy Taurox, does not require much work: weapon system is dual autocannon, as the genuine model, and removing the cult emblems and adding some Imperium symbols was not a big deal. The same with swapping the machine gun for a sanctionned stormbolter (after all these kit bashed are supposed to be SW auxillaries

How to pretend not to start a GSC army - Part 2

Hi folks,   Last post of the series introduced the reasons behind buying a GSC Patrol box (the old one) in order to get the base for kit bashing IG infantery squads. The fact that I have a sweet remember of these guies is probably not completely disconected to the selection of Neophyte Hybrids models instead of Orlocks gangers as a starting base. Even if after a carful look,        As for using Sktarii heads on other bodies, I had already tried it, more or less succ

How to pretend not to start a GSC army - Part 1

Hi folks,   Before entering into the details, it may be worth setting up a kind of background. Let´s go back in time in a not so far past (relativity matters) when previous 40k Edtion allowed Allied Detachments in its Force Organization Charts   The scene is set.   I enjoyed this era that has been a perfect time to increase my SW force versatility adding small detachments of other stuff in order to get some tactical diversification. It is when I added Blood Ang

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. I have 30 breachers to build so 2 boxes should be good*     Regimental advisors...NOPE! A mystic/ Astropath and "Rogue Trader" Ship Captain and the other guy is going to a friends army.      More Grey Knight Terminators......cause

Bitz Box Management

While waiting for the Delivery...

I feel like a little bit purposeless as my next bunch of fresh material for 40k will be delivered in afew days. I still have some stuff left in a box, some more ooP Rhino chassis tanks, but It would be repainting them. I could off course shift to WFB which is clearly my next big challenge as my Pile of shame is huge here. Or anticipate on Epic reboot and paint my old (very old) 6 mm scale armies.   But I do not want to embark on something too different like 6 mm and I am a little bit f
