So every edition I kind of remix and make sure my IG is legal. With this I also add to it new units and models depending on what I’ve gotten over the years and ideas I’ve had to finally work on with time. The current expansion is introducing felinids into the mix as I found a nice set of heads/tails for the army and access to a 3d printer. So a large portion of new infantry to this point will be felinid in some respect. Lore wise it gets a little heretical. One of the Tech Magos that runs my admech/Knights force decided to try and copy the DKoK Vitae Womb process, but with her own abhuman genes. Rumor has it she is working to create enough for a functioning colony, but those are only rumors. Well kind of, basically the new abhuman population wants (or needs) to be proven useful to the sector lords and nothing is better than a disposable army you can send Ministorium as a tithe instead of your own populace. So basically I’m going to slowly ‘phase out’ the human guard for the felinids as they take up the mantle of tithe troops. Models/parts are from an alternate regiment I found called the Winterguard. After getting a few dozen prints via etsy, the original artist started selling the STLs so here we are. In this blog I’m going to do my best to document games and new recruitments into my guard force. Important Persona (Named characters) Major Vladilena Ezdeath (Lord Solar) Human commander and veteran of several conflicts, she was tasked with watching over and commanding the newly formed Felinid force and help with their integration into the Confederation of Teradox’s armed forces. (WIP version) Captain Turmoil (primary HQ) Felinid commander, one of the most veteran of those serving in Teradox’s forces. She is currently leading the front line company for the 386th. I plan to make another PF weidling felinid commander from the Kreig command kit once I get my hands on it to use when I play at GW, otherwise I use the model shown below. Hardu-11 (Turmoil bodyguard unit, Orgyn BG) (Writer’s note: I’m note too sure what I want to do with this guy just yet. I’m still deciding if the Ambot based Orgyn BG are AI controlled robots or heavy armour clad catboys.) Genetor Ilmurinen Role: Tech Preist - Biomechanical - Primary overseer of the Vitae Womb project, code name Project Behneko For reports that I’m hopefully going to add here I figured a renaming of the units would give a little flavor Amur units - DKoK Náshdóíłbái - catachan (not sure if I’ll ever do these honestly) Caitian - Cadian Current projects: Enclosed Basilisk: So pieced this together, used a heavy bolt rifle as the heavy bolter analog. I don’t have the crew done yet as I want something special and have to piece together and print a few STL files to get my crew models. Heavy Artillery: I forgot to spray the gun/mount/base when I did my last primer run. I’m replacing the Krieg models with cadians. For this one I have the loader, trigger girl and a guard for the base. Next one I’m thinking of doing a loader, spotter, and mechanic trio. I did build the heavy siege gun, quad launcher and missile battery so I can swap them IF i wanted to, but the heavy siege gun is my goto. Hydra Flak Tank: This one is nearly done, just have to fix the gun (popped off during test assembly) paint the gunner and finish the oil coat. Some battlefield and unit pictures

Hello all! I wanted to share my current project I work on. It is an Exorcist class grand cruiser I named Basket of Thorns. Since all ship models in 40k are taken from epic miniatures and small figurines they are never portrayed as proper works of arts, namely Gothic style cathedrals in space. In addition, they all have wonky proportions, never truly describing their giant size. They do not make sense when taken a closer look, like a macrocannon shell in diameter of 100m or a gold cornice 100m wide. Not happening in real world, baby. Not even with Imperium's grand waste of resources. So I made one. It is still WiP as finishing it off will take some time, but for time being, I can at least present some progress as It is almost 90-95% complete and all that remains is to add engines. And revise detail to be more precise. It DOES have 7.8 km length, 3.4 height and every meter has been accounted for. Maybe not EVERY as there are still blank places, but still. Coming in hot. For now, some overview. :) - - Since I perceive all WH40k proportions of ships as ridiculously bloated and out of realism (more about that later) here is some my depiction of what could be an orbital laser chamber. Located in underbelly of the beast. It has diameter of 190 meters, a little bit over 620 feet. And my version of Nova Cannon. this one is as according to current lore, with 50m diameter bore for its shell, not the puny nonsense SM2 tries to portray. And top view of the crown That's it for now. More renders later

Back in the day of Metal IG, there were models that I feel head of heels about. I even based my Elysians using these models, but sold it years ago due to RL. Lately I've been itching to get back into getting them. So far I managed to get roughly 60 Kasrkins back... now to make a list around them. Edit: title, updated on to reflect on growing collection.
