Iron Warriors 5th Grand Company re-born - Army log


Recommended Posts

Update

 

So only a few more days left & 8th ed will finial be release.  As said before, I'm really looking forward to this.  I've like everything I've seen so far from the commuinty page.  Been able to charge from Rhinos again!!  Been able to move & fire heavy weapon that just -1 to hit.  Way Combi work, deep striking & no more deathstar list!!!

But for time been.  I'm trying to get a few stuff sorted so I'm ready to game asap. 

 

My copy of the White Dwarf arrive today in the post, I've not read to much of it today.  But quick look & Tale of Warlord article really cool.

 

While the list there - As said, I've notice Terminators are now a minimum unit of 5 models.  I want to convert a Standard Bearer, pretty much it'll be a Terminator carry Icon of Vengeance.  Part of this is to included campaign that been in the background (FW & BL) & once my Iron Warriors have battle in.

So I'm hoping to try get them made as transfer pretty soon.  I'm hoping my order from Bitz Box arrive tomorrow as well, mean I can get the Terminators built pretty fast.  With some parts already in one of the bag of bits, the other bag has part to build a 7th Iron Warriors for my unit of Havocs, (see squad below) as match point saw me with 14pts spare.

After having the Rhino & Genestealer Truck waiting here since Christmas.  So spent the weekend getting the plasticard armour plate built & then during part of today building the Rhino.  Going to start painting this in a few days time.

Trophy - As always, trophies are base on armies I've fought over the years.  Just rememeber those great games & help add theme.  So here I've got

  • World Eater, one of my friends
  • Bloodletter, base on the manger/friend from local store & the Daemon they collected in 5th ed
  • Necron & Novamarine, both base on one of my friend armies.
  • Crimson Fist, from the March campaign event that Warhammer World
  • Mechanicus, base on my friend & our game from a local tournament last year.
  • DIY Marine force from one of my friends.
  • Red Scorpion, base on my friend who move to the USA back 2014.  You can see the 7000pt game we had around June to July the last weekend before he moved.

Havoc launcher in case I've got the points for it or if I got power level.  I'm more than happy to use any of the three ways of gaming with the new 8th ed game.  I think there all looking great.  For me, having a fun game & useing cool models is way more important.

So it to get the Rhino undercaoted tomorrow & have it ready for painting in a few days time.  I'd like to try get it ready for Saturday.

 

Very finial bit is - So since last year I've been thinking converting up some fortification for my Iron Warriors.  Part due to as always have cool models, part because of the theme & what Iron Warriors are well know for :D  Also I've not really seen many fortification in games.  Just a few month ago, a friend had said they'd not mind having a siege game with there Orks vs my Iron Warriors, just when Traitor legion was release.

 

So I'm thinking of getting the Age of Sigmar Dreadhold, skull keep & use this as a bastion.  But I need to try make this more 40k looking.  There is the Shadow War terrain got release recently.  I also need think of how add those Heavy Bolter.

I'd like to try get it this weekend.

Also mean more terrain as one my aims is to try get my gaming table sorted that home, so I can try arrange more games.  With terrain from past armies on parade display there, they just need fix.

I like to think that if they had a crippled Imperial Fist in front of them, they would pull a Deadpool and just slowly ease towards him. "WERE GOING TO KILL YOU LOYALIST SCUM... IN A FEW MINUTES, HEY STOP CRAWLING!"

Parts from bitz box arrive yesterday & so quickly got the Terminator Standard bearer built.  Really happy gotten the model built after having the idea for past few week.  I've got a idea how the banner going to look, pretty much see the shoulder pad from my Siege theme Chaos Knight with the half IW icon, half free hand painted Chaos icon. 

 

Also try to get the sheet I need for making my own transfer to list campaign for the back part of the flag.

The Terminator just undercoated just a hour ago, going to get all the shade done as I'd like to use this Terminator in my last game of 7th ed I've got this week.  After that, it all about 8th ed...!!

 

I do need to go back & add a Blood Angel helmet onto the trophy part.

FYI... totally using the rockgrinder shield on my IW rhino as yours inspires me. Actually I've decided on the warriors as my first ever nonloyalist marine army in many ways based on how flipping rad your thread has been the last few years.

I'd given it up and have now come back to it as a perfect way to have mechanicum allies and robots in an army list.

I got Perty for his amazing base to use with my atrapos and decided to paint him after a binge read on your thread and really liked the simplicity of the iron and the ease of beautiful colors popping with the application of oil washes.

Thanks for keeping your mojo up and rocking out a SWEET thread!!

Well, after two months of waiting since the announcement.  8th is finial release & I've had a few small games just get a idea of the changes.  Vindicator really great in close combat ;)

 

So I just got

  • Box game
  • Index Chaos
  • Command Dice
  • Maelstorm cards (not shown in photo)
  • Mission cards for advance order the box game

So I'm looking forward getting the Nurgle marines built soon.  Just need to get the time to think of conversion & get some idea.

I also pick up the Age of Sigmar Chaos Dreadhold Keep.  I'm going to converted this into a Chaos bastion for my Iron Warriors.  This has been something I was planning since last year, but it been put off for one reason or another.

But now time to get this done.  Every Iron Warrior hobbiest need fortifaction terrain in there collection, along side Vindicators.

 

Not quite sure what I'm going to do, again just need the time to focuse & get some idea, get some research done.  Sadly the new Banner bearer for my Terminators drop, with the axe & banner breaking off, so just gotten him glue when photo was taken & adding liquid green stuff after this was taken.

 

http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/2016/19113953_1392905167467043_3808887811354210796_n_zpsvwzdyk8f.jpg

 

Here the Rhino.  It now waiting for weather powder & blood for the blood god.  Just today been a really busy day.  I've only open the box game around 4pm & I've still not got the rule book out of the wrap yet :(

 

So hoping get this Rhino all finish during tomorrow.

  • The Havocs Rhino almost finish.  Just need to go back & add bit more blood for the blood god.  As well as paint the Bloodletter trophy, the weekend been really chaotic.  So hopeful get some time set aside for that.
     
  • Bit of work painted onto the new Terminator standard bearer.  Couldn't get to much done today due to min heat wave though out today :(  Got the transfer sheet on it way.  Just as said on the back of the banner I want the list of campaign from the background & once I've taken part in gaming wise.
     
  • New Battle Brother for the recent unit of Havocs I've been useing.  Just had pts left over in the list I recently made for 8th ed & though be cooler to model another memeber for the unit of Havocs.  Just need to add green stuff to the base& then sand.  Try get him all ready for my 8th ed game in a few days time
     
  • Glass with IW icon.  My friend was back in the UK for a two week, to see family & friends.  Turn out they made me this, but they forgot to drop it off during the first week when we got a game & catch up, they moved to the USA in 2014.  It just arrive in the post today & though it was really cool.

I'm also going to try build the Skull Keep tomorrow & try get some idea how to make it look more & fit the Warhammer 40,000 look.

 

Anyway here the photos.

Just spent late afternoon building the new Nurgle Marines from the box game.  I'm still work out idea how I'd like to convert them, part me want to take parts from the pox-walker models.  Also need to sort out the base, it will be tie in with my Iron Warriors as said my theme a Black Crusade force now, but try also make it there own in a way as well.

 

http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/2016/P1100129_zpskaehqwmd.jpg

 

Then about a hour ago, got some transfer added to the front part of the banner.

 

http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/2016/P1100133_zps3csvpch5.jpg

 

This is what will go onto the back of the banner.  As said before, want to included a few campaign from the background & once I've take part in.  So just got this list, but not sure which once will make it or get dropped.  But going have to wait until the weekend until I can get the transfer for these made.

 

http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/2016/P1100139_zpsx3ceca6p.jpg

 

Getting the new Havoc battle Brother ready for his game soon.

 

http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/2016/P1100130_zpsgc7kljxc.jpg

 

Just got the AoS keep built.  Just wanted to get a rough idea what I'm wanting to try get done for the model.  I'm currently looking out FW IW chaos era doors so I can use the IW icons on a few part of this model.

Also working out if I will get some of the Shadow Wars terrain try add the industrial vibe.

 

http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/2016/P1100137_zpsyz9aqkzk.jpg

Sadly trying to make my own trasnfer didn't go to well.  So I've ended up free hand painting the campaign names from those in the background to those I've taken part in gaming wise, like back in March that Warhammer World with the Boralis Schism campaign weekend.

Also meant I couldn't add a lot of names that I'd like to added.  But I'm happy gotten the new Terminator standard bearer finish.

Then some conversion work done to the box game Nurgle Marines.  I'm really looking forward to the box set to start been release.  Just to see what parts will be on the sprue & just plan out my conversion bit more.  But I think I'm going to try get a few Dark Eldar Wrack parts, like the chain & hooks.  I want to use the sort of spike on the shoulder pad we see on the Nurgle Marine with grenade.

 

I've got a colour scheme planned.  I'm going to try paint up one of the models tomorrow just get a idea & if it will work.

 

http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/2016/P1100341_zpsxte58nwt.jpg

 

Next Warhammer World event.  I'm really looking forward to this, Warhammer World run really great events & to me it how the 40k game should be done.  Just people taken the models & units they like & just spend the weekend in one of the best gaming venue.  I'm really looking forward to this & it just a few days before my birthday as well!!!

 

http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/2016/19430160_1613708081981999_5473769004038231470_n_zpsizrz6mpm.jpg

 

I mange to get my first game of 8th ed during the week there against my friend Space marines.  Was really great fun, 2420pts, with the game starting that 6.30pm, finish 8.15pm.  Just under two hour.
It just further added why the new 8th ed rule are perfect for me, the version of the game I wanted.  I'm really looking forward getting more games & Warsmith Abhorred Riddick will be returning to the gaming table soon (not as a boon Daemon prince) which I'm really looking forward to.

I like some of the changes you did to the DG. Going to borrow some.

 

The rhino and havocs also look great!

 

Thanks Hushrong

 

Yes, pretty much I think I'm going to use some part like the chain/hook from the Dark Eldar Wrack models.  I'm going to have a look that a few of the Dark Eldar range for a few parts.

 

​Then as said there, just really looking forward to these models getting release & just see the spure :D

Thanks Bio for the reply :D

Update

 

Just spent a bit of time today tidy the new Standard Bearer terminator.  Just I needed a new White Scar paint, but I'll need to go back again.  Just while I was trying sort some of the letter, well there road work been done out side my local store & as you can guess, it not easy paint the letter, so didn't want to risk this to much.

 

I should also add, so after varnish the standard bearer on Saturday.  Sadly the frost effect had happen on the banner it self.  But olive oil work, just apply that onto the whole banner as it was badly effected.  Then just wash it off with water with a bit of washing up liquid & it was back to normal.

Then here the start of my second Death Guard army.  Just spend today painting them.  Not sure how the models are looking photo wise, though I try useing paper in the background.  So I've just to varnish the models which will get done tomorrow.  Then just add finial details.

I really like the models & really looking forward collecting them.

 

So I've ended up going with the classic green armour, I will be getting the green spray paint.  But I still wanted the white, to try show the Heresy era look, that they still kept it.  While red is a spot colour & try show there old company from those days.

 

I think for my new Nurgle force, there is going to be a few diffrent colour scheme, the idea to try show diffrent units & warband all united in this holy crusade for Nurgle.  So there going to be a few diffrent colour schemes.  But this will be the sort of "main" colour scheme for the backbone of this force.

Really enjoyed painting them & can not wait for the rest of the release during July?  I just want the multi part kits now.

I just wanted to see what they look like next to my Iron Warriors.  Useing Blue as a colour to try tie the theme together, something that aill also be seen in future armies for this Black Crusade force.

As said there also going to be

- Black legion

- Night Lords

- Red Corsairs

- World Eater/Daemonkin

- Fallen Angels

 

Then pretty much add other force if the models are cool & I've got a idea I like.  As Chaos is my main faction in the Games Workshop hobby :D

Well that really gutting.  So as you can see, I'm one of many who've recently been hit by photobucket new terms.  I'm not sure about anyone else, but I know I never got any advance notice about this, just simple a email this moring that 5.25am informing me that I would not be able to link any more photos...........

 

Well, unless I upgrade to the plus 500..... there is no way I'm going to pay $399.99 for this.  Why should I?

 

So this leave me with a few chose.

 

- If anyone has any other photo account that can be suggested?

- If I get something sorted out.  I think it might be best just making a brand new topic.  Just there no way I can go back & replace each & ever single photo re-link them if I happen to get a new site that host photos.

 

Ether way, for time been I do have my facebook page: Iron-Daemon Forge, this was created as another way to have a hobby page, just show off work & just allow few more photos, like when I go to events.

 

https://www.facebook.com/Iron-Daemon-Forge-180193015748679/

 

I'm going to try & see if I am able to save some of my older photos from my accounts & see if I can get them upload onto my facebook page.
