Withershadow Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 I've been slowly amassing them for years since Siege of Vraks, but didn't have enough models at the time to field an army, then took a prolonged break for second half of 5th through 7th (just played HH), but continued slowly collecting them. I think it got out of hand at some point, because now I am the proud owner of about 250 Kriegsmen/Engineers/Grenadiers+Command. Then about 2 dozen vehicles and flyers. At this point almost all is painted except 6 bullgryns, 24 cavalry, 3 Russes, and an Octoblade. At that point I intend to stop since I will crack >10,000 points fully painted.

spafe Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Get them recruiting sergeants out Baz! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wassa Posted May 11, 2018 Author Share Posted May 11, 2018 I had to do that. Bought 27 cadians for £8.50 on ebay. Realised he had made too many vox casters and no sergeants so had to buy another box and use my spares to make several sergeants! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inso Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Lotsa 'old-school', painted, gloss varnished, metal Catachan Jungle Fighters : I really need to re-base them and tone down that shine There are some Sentinels to go with them too: I know... the Squat guy actually has some proper Guard! Madness, right? ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wassa Posted May 11, 2018 Author Share Posted May 11, 2018 Ah I have some of those old catachans! Are you going to buy the HWT bases and put them on there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inso Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Ah I have some of those old catachans! Are you going to buy the HWT bases and put them on there? I don't game and these have been out of their storage box once in about 15 years... so it is doubtful that I would go that far. A repaint of the existing bases and a dull coat isn't too much of a bind but removing the miniatures from the bases would be a nightmare... they are all held in with textured milliput.

Ice warrior Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Total is around 400 half cadians 1/3 catachans rest are mixture of mordian stormtroopers officers and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Marshal Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Too many... ...but also not enough. I'd say in total, round about 150 Cadians, 50 Vostroyans, 30 Karskin, 15 metal Stormtroopers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice warrior Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Grabbing a pic of my guardsmen gave me a good excuse to clean my painting table. http://i68.tinypic.com/s12haf.jpg Total number of men 435 Prolly got another 20 laying around, missing bases or parts after being salvaged. Completion rate around 50% i think. Non brown bases, are either purchased, or of an older scheme that are in the process of being repainted.

Withershadow Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Gloss varnish is gross, the whole army looks sticky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Krash Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 including heavy/special weapons teams within numbers. Cadian: 300 Steel legion: 100 Praetorians: 250 Catachans: 100 Elysians: 100 Savlar Chem Dogs 50(Love Victoria Miniatures) Storm Troopers/Scions 50 So pretty much to many Krash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inso Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Gloss varnish is gross, the whole army looks sticky. For someone called 'withershadow' I'd have thought sticky would be quite appropriate... what with withering being a bit like rotting... and Nurgle is always covered in slime :D I know that the gloss varnish isn't to everyone's taste but I have mentioned that I plan to dull it down... so don't think of them as finished, just glossed prior to their final varnish ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimsondave Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 A quick shot of dullcote would probably tone it right down if you really wanted too. I should buy it by the case. Mine: 120 regular Infantry (Cadians with Mad Robot & Anvil heads), all but 12 painted and their almost done. 20 Veterans (Cadians with Mad Robot heads), all but 6 painted and their almost done. 30 Conscripts (Cadians with Mad Robot heads), still NOS but my next project 45 Scions, 20 painted, the rest NOS.

allegedlynerdy Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Around 200 straight up infantry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mad Hermit Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Not counting Ogryn, Ratling, Commissars, and Priests... but including Heavy Weapons Teams? Counting everything, painted or not? I have a little more than 150 Infantrymen (with a three-pack of the old I.G. Armor Crewmen thrown in for good measure). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
