Any fellow members attending this tournament? I'm travelling down on my own so it would be great to meet some fellow gamers down there.

Any fellow Fraters attending Throne of Skulls this weekend? I'll be be there repping the Black Templars sub forum and hoping to have a fun weekend.

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2022/07/12/we-were-there-the-day-horus-visited-warhammer-world/ Pretty cool stuff. The slideshow of images at the end is dumb however. Maybe I'm old but I like to see pictures, not have them flashed in front of me then taken away.

Iron Warriors 5th Grand Company This is where we hold them! This is where we fight! This is where they DIE!!!!!!!!!! Hi everone I've alrady got a topic on the go over in the painting area of the fourms. But though it would be good to start a project log here as well for memeber who may only check out the Chaos area of the fourm. This is going to be a army log on my brand new (well 6th) Iron Warriors force. Hope to take photos though out the progress. I am aim for Throne of Skulls April tournament down in Warhammer World for the deadline. Just last week, the 17th Nov - Thur, had mark ten year of collecting Iron Warriors for me, a army that has been my favrout of all time armies, along with Space Wolves & Black Templars. I've alway been a big fan of Chaos Marines thanks to John Blanch art work from WD 202/2nd Ed Codex Chaos & have been battle with Chaos for 15 year now. From my second army in 40k being Black Legion, to my Iron Warriors & my Chaos Daemon in 2008. For the Iron Warriors it all started when 3rd ed came out. One of my friends converted up some really nice Obliterators for his Thasound Son army, before we had the current models we have today. Also gaming wise Obliterators where complete diffrent from the way they are today & your able to take up to 6 in a single unit. Also back then, Index Astarties where being release in the White Dwarf, given us a wealth of background into some of the famous Chaos Legions & Space Marine Chapter, even with some rules to field these armies. Like White Scar make great use of bikes, but not allow them some other chose with in codex Space Marines. The Index Astartirs also had a lot of cool art work inside as well, for me I really like the art work base on the Iron Warriors. Since then my Iron Warriors have been battle it out against many oppents, fought in many tournaments & winning some honour from a few player chose award for best army I though the best way to mark ten year of collecting Iron Warriors would be, to start a brand new army, well my 6th Iron Warrior force. Few of the reason is down to, I'll need to move from the old GW Inks to the current wash which are brillaint (Badab Black wash is the future!!) & also Games Workshop release a lot of cool kits over the years to further convert models which I really enjoy doing, it rare if any that I have out of the box armies, everthing got a conversion in some shape or fourm. Chaos Marines offer a lot in term of being one of the most convertible (sp) armies out there in the 40k world along with Orks. I'll be aim my new Iron Warriors force for Throne of Skulls April, which will mark ten years of attend tournament & then for the rest of 2012 from Throne of Skulls down in Warhammer World, to local tournaments though out Scotland. My army list is pretty much going to be the same one I use back in 2008 to 2009 until we get a new codex (hopeful next year ) This was the Iron Warrior Marine that I posted a few weeks back First Iron Squad - Iupatus Proeliator http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04315.jpg http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04316.jpg http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04317.jpg Was trying the new GW Medium to make stubble/shaven hair for my models, hope to use this though out my army from shaven hair to beards. Just the way I sort of see the Iron Warriors & just added another leval to the models. One thing I like to do when collect a army is to try somthing new out from model to painting. http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04353.jpg Also hopeful a better photos of the Autocannon IW backpack http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04354.jpg Like wise with the Melta Gun arm IW http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04357.jpg The Iron Warrior Marine arm with Melta gun is roughly base on Cadaras art work from the Black Library web site, from Graham McNeill novel - Iron Warrior (Limited Ed or will be in the soon to be release Iron Warriors Onimbus along with two new short stories) http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/Iron-warrior-Cadras.jpg 1st Iron Squad, just wanted to see how the models all look together in there unit http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04361.jpg Finial the Champion & Glory of Chaos icon bearer - Since this photo was taken, both models have recent being painted. When the photo was taken the Head for the Champion was taken from another model I'd work on but was no longer going to finish, did not want the undercaot to block the details which where already painted on http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04359.jpg Trophie http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04312.jpg One of the reason I like Chaos Space Marines is adding trophies. Like my Mk5 Iron Warriors force. Mk6 Iron Warrior force will make great use of trophies. These are all going to be base upon past & present oppents that I had great games against from my local GW, gaming club & tournaments. It why I also like to keep count of my games for my Iron Warriors & Space Wolves. So everon trophie you'll see on my Iron Warriors will have a story behind it, of a battle I fought many years ago to recently battles. This Black Legion trophie is base on White Dwarf own Christian Byrne when I fought his Black Legion during Grand Tournament 2006 down in Nottingham/Warhammer World. It because of brillaint games though out the years that has help theme my army. This is what I like about my Iron Warriors. This also apply to my Space Wolves, where each model guine dose have there own Saga because of the brillaint games they have been though in friendly games to tournament games. In fact found some old background recently from a friend campign (sp) he done base on my IW & the games had back in a old gaming club I use to go to before it stop running. When I work on any army, I alway like to get my 2x Troops & HQ out of the way. I tend to get the first squad done follow by any transport, then move onto the next troop chose + transport. Then I'll paint up my HQ after word. Once the legal part of the army done, I'll tend to work on anything from there. It just save time & energy. I loss count of the time I change a army list & that Elites unit, say of Terminators are no longer needed... while none of the troops or HQ done. So getting your troops & HQ out of the way, this allow you that time to make any changeies to the army list while collecting. Then after word I'll let the gaming make any changies. I also tend to try get a army fully painted before I hit the gaming table as well. Just me personial I hate useing unpainted armies for a lot amount of time. 2nd Iron Squad preview http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04360.jpg I am still waiting on some bits to arrive. The models have been base, so as soon as the bits arrive in the post. I can get them glue on & undercaot my models asap, instead of doing that & then base them, waiting a hour until I can undercaot them. The IW with the T face Bezerker helmet, I would like the do the yellow & black hazer strip on his face plate. One idea I would like to try on a future T Face Bezerker helmet would be to have a Jaw from some Xeno beast as a trophie, just that the bottem part of the T face bezerker face plate. I'm going to try start work on my 1st Iron Squad Rhino, try start building that tomorrow night so I can start getting that painted soon. Also John Black Art work, I though it would be cool to let new hobbiest see this. Photo was taken during the Grand Tournament 2007 when I was down in Nottingham/Warhammer World. This was in White Dwarf (UK) 202 & 2nd Ed codex Chaos Marines http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v473/ironwarriors/insane%20psycopath/New%20IW/DSC02168.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v473/ironwarriors/insane%20psycopath/New%20IW/DSC02169.jpg A lot of stuff will be play a big role in term of give me idea from - John Blanch art work shown there. Graham McNeill Iron Warriors novels. A D-B Night Lord Novels will play a role in this as well. Bloodquest comic Black Library use to do base on a Exile Blood Angels Captain in his quest in the Eye of Terror to claim a relic. Wade or know as Teethgrinder on these fourm (Games Workshop staff memeber) Khorne Bezerker army. Christian Byrne Black Legion. Andy Chamber Iron Warriors from 2nd ed era. Codex Chaos Space Marine 2nd ed & 3.5. As well as a lot of conversion work George Dellapina done back when he had his models in the WD. I said I'd post up the background on one of my Iron Warriors. This was during a campaign (sp) that my old gaming club done back in 2006? Where it was pretty much Chaos Marines vs Imperial, Sister & Guards. The background was done by my friend to help myself for background to use in tournaments & just in general if it a army I really like, I want it to be well know. Can not have a faceless army in my view. I rather say "By Morkai black fang, Rothgar the Skald (Dreadnought) has failed to his with his Twin Linked Lascannon for all six turns!!" All the background was base on the games fought during this event. So that it for now. Hope to have a update during the weekend as I work on my Second squad. As well as finish off the Champion & Icon Bearer for my First squad. Still working out some idea for my Banner, to try make them stand out & general look really cool. IP

I'll be aim my new Iron Warriors force for Throne of Skulls April, which will mark ten years of attend tournament & then for the rest of 2012 from Throne of Skulls down in Warhammer World, to local tournaments though out Scotland. To start thing off, here some of the new Iron Warriors I been working on since last week First Iron Squad - Iupatus Proeliator This was the Iron Warrior Marine that I posted a few weeks back http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04315.jpg http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04316.jpg http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04317.jpg The first half of the squad I been work on last week & hope to finish tomorrow http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04318.jpg http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04319.jpg Melta arm Iron Warrior - I base the Iron Warrior pose roughly on the art work of Cadaras Grendel from Graham McNeill novel "Iron Warriors" http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04320.jpg http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04321.jpg Cadaras art work from the Black Library web site http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/Iron-warrior-Cadras.jpg Some recently made Iron Warriors for my first squad - The model with the Heavy Bolter/Assault cannon going to be my Autocannon arm Iron Warrior, it just look cooler & anger. http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04323.jpg http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04324.jpg Trophie http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04312.jpg One of the reason I like Chaos Space Marines is adding trophies. Like my Mk5 Iron Warriors force. Mk6 Iron Warrior force will make great use of trophies. These are all going to be base upon past & present oppents that I had great games against from my local GW, gaming club & tournaments. It why I also like to keep count of my games for my Iron Warriors & Space Wolves. So everon trophie you'll see on my Iron Warriors will have a story behind it, of a battle I fought many years ago to recently battles. This Black Legion trophie is base on White Dwarf own Christian Byrne when I fought his Black Legion during Grand Tournament 2006 down in Nottingham/Warhammer World. I've still to build the Champion for Squad - Iupatus Proeliator, just waiting on a few friends to get me some bits for the conversion. I've also to make a Iron Warrior carry the Icon of Glory. So hopeful try get both these models made during the weekend. When I work on any army, I alway like to get my 2x Troops & HQ out of the way. I tend to get the first squad done follow by any transport, then move onto the next troop chose + transport. Then I'll paint up my HQ after word. Once the legal part of the army done, I'll tend to work on anything from there. It just save time & energy. I loss count of the time I change a army list & that Elites unit, say of Terminators are no longer needed... while none of the troops or HQ done. So getting your troops & HQ out of the way, this allow you that time to make any changeies to the army list while collecting. Then after word I'll let the gaming make any changies. I also tend to try get a army fully painted before I hit the gaming table as well. Just me personial I hate useing unpainted armies for a lot amount of time. So once I got my Champion & Icon of Glory Bearer made up. I'll get to work on my Rhino for squad - Iupatus Proeliator Also I wanted to try out a idea for my Obliterators, useing the Plastic Chaos Terminators along with the Devastators weapon. I really like the current Obliterators models don't get me wrong. But being metal & because I travel to my local GW, gaming club & to tournaments, metal models tend to add bit of wight along with all the other stuff or when travel to a tournament. He still WIP painting wise http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04325.jpg http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04326.jpg http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04328.jpg http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/Iron%20Warriors/DSC04329.jpg I hope he alright. I am not wanting to go to over the top with the heavy weapons. Also though I would show some of my older IW models or Chaos in general This was my first Iron Warriors back 10 year ago, where it all started being my Warsmith Abhorred Riddick in Human fourm before the Daemon Prince (metal) model was ever release. Back when you where able to Mail order single bits. Photo was taken back in 2009, I'll try get some new photos soon http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v473/ironwarriors/insane%20psycopath/New%20IW/DSC03838.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v473/ironwarriors/insane%20psycopath/New%20IW/DSC03839.jpg Abhorred Riddick was the model that started the Iron Warriors for me, he was the first model I got back on the 17th Nov 2001. Then by Christmas I had the rest of my Iron Warriors for Conflict Scotland 2002. You can see the rest of my Iron Warriors from though out the years by these fourms, just check my old topics. Also I commented on Black Legion.
