Hi I’m Casual Heresy, and I’m a hobby butterfly. And that’s okay. Afternoon all. A combination of the forum upgrades and downtime from catching Nurgle’s blessing (covid) for the first time means I’m finally going to start the WiP log I’ve always meant to start. I love space marines of all types so always have multiple projects on the go. Currently, I’m focussing on Black Templar reinforcements for the August Throne of Skulls at Warhammer Workd with heresy era ultramarines in the background. But various other armies and one off projects will pop up over time. Currently I’m about to finish the first of two Redemptors for my Templars, and a Contemptor I finished yesterday is waiting on tufts. After that there is only Grimaldus and his boy band, a Primaris Techmarine and Castellan to go.

As the Title says, I finally got my Hands On my Combat Patrol Box!, Will be using this as a Tool to encourage me to Continue with it at hopefully a bit faster than my Usual Glacial pace . Pics soon of Grey plastic stuck together.... I've been looking at everyone else's models being painted and it has enthused me to kick it into gear. Cheers, M

Greetings Bolter & Chainsword! It's been quite a while since I've started collecting my Chaos Space Marines and I'm finally going to be starting the long journey of painting up these midnight clad warriors of the VIIIth legion. I'm still not entirely happy with the paint scheme, but this is about as close as I'm likely to get for the foreseeable future. Without further ado, I present to you the little test model that could: Spooky McDerpSkull. I didn't bother to finish up the entire model seeing as this is just a test figure, however there are some parts which I think could use improvement. Specifically the lenses aren't quite as vibrant and glowing as I'd like so I'll have to try to fix that for the upcoming models. I might end up finishing this model in it's entirety, but it's likely I'll be starting the chaos side of the Shadowspear boxset instead. They're currently based in a ruined urban environment, but I'm open to other suggestions that might be more interesting visually. Feel free to comment & critique.

What would you do? How would you fix/improve 40k in terms of LORE (not talking tabeltop rules here)? Here's my (incomplete) list: - fix the Tau by removing/toning down their insane luck/plot shields and insane technological progression. They are like that omnidiscippliniary scientists with 50 PhD's from comics. Let them be "tenderly" tended to by the galaxy. But no total annihilation. - remove perpetuals - retcon the Gathering Storm (the entire "Elite GK's, Smurfs and Guilleman captured" thing is terrible and needs to go, incosistent Crawl backstory needs fixing. Having him be directly guided by the Big E would be far superior to what we have now) - nerf Tyranids (no Bio-titans, they don't need them. No rending claws. Tone down their individual bull:cusstery and focus more on NUMBERS) - Bring back OldCrons. The new ones are far too human and far too egyptian. - KEEP the babycarrier (Before you should "HERESY", think about it stated purpose - fighting greater demons. Armor is useless, mobility and reach are important. In that sense, the design fits the role.) - That 40K kids book never happened - Make comedic 40K race game and imperial guard simulator (each soldier in a regiment is a life) - fire whoever designed that eldar chick. Terrible. TERRIBLE.

I have a Lord of Skulls sitting among my piles of built models and sprues, half built for about two years at least now. The upcoming Apocalypse, together with ETL, made me think about finally finishing the build and then actually paint it. How are your experiences with it on the battlefield?

Who might be attending the big London GT? I'm actually going, with a new list planned in the Ultramarines section here, link when I get confirmation from the TO about whether a Kratos is allowed. I don't expect to win of course but I expect to have fun and if I can get 40% wins I'd be happy. Oh if anyone sees me wearing my B&C T-shirt with Captain Idaho on it, come say hi! I'm a big fella but don't worry, I'm also pleasant enough in real life!

Cerceus Pattern Bolter
Veteran Sergeant posted a gallery image in Adeptus Astartes/Legiones Astartes
From the album: True Scale / Tall Scale prototypes
Concept art (shamelessly borrowed from whomever did the original mockup) for the Cerceus-Pattern Bolter I'll be using with my conversion project. The Cerceus Pattern bolter places the barrel more in line with the charging handle.ejection port, flipping the auto-sense targeter link underneath the barrel. This allows for greater ammunition capacity, and a simplified internal mechanism. Front sight post has been shaved down since it had no corresponding rear sight anyway, and was thus non-functional. Instead the top cowls conceal flip-up auxiliary sights in case the Marine's helmet is disabled. -
Multimelta Conversion Space Marine 40K Cerceus Pattern
Veteran Sergeant posted a gallery image in Adeptus Astartes/Legiones Astartes
From the album: True Scale / Tall Scale prototypes
Multimelta conversion designed to evoke a more transportable, less bulky weapon. Meltabomb based fuel cannister. Pose came from an old Marine torso I had apparently clued together with forever-glue. So I challenged myself to figure out a pose for a figure with it's head to the left. So this Marine is looking back while his weapon and torso remain pointed "foward". I envision him at a corner behind cover looking back to see if his squadmates are ready to charge in after he blasts whatever is around the corner.-

Tall Scale Space Marine with Grenade Launcher
Veteran Sergeant posted a gallery image in Adeptus Astartes/Legiones Astartes
From the album: True Scale / Tall Scale prototypes
Tall Scale Space Marine with an assault grenade launcher. This Marine isn't supposed to be strictly canonical, nor to represent anything in particular on the tabletop. I just thought it would look cool to have a Marine carrying some kind of auxiliary specialty weapon and loaded for bear. Turned out that it didn't work quite the way I'd envisioned since I pack so much gear on these guys. But I think the overall aesthetic is there of a transhuman killer armed to the teeth. Armed with Cerceus Pattern Bolter modifcation. Unique bits used: Black Templars head (now available in the standard tactical kit since GW seems to steal every other idea I have, heh). IGuard grenade launcher with two bolter handles added. Chaos Marine right shoulderpad with chaos iconography filed off and skull bent to hang at a natural angle.-
