IA:13 infernal Relic(s), Infernal Dreads, and GD Infernal tyrannocytes

My hobby time is now becoming "not sleeping time".  I have been painting, building, and organizing 3 armies for the last couple weeks.  Mostly in the wee hours of the night due to crazy insomnia, most was done in 2-6am time frames. Just in time for work hooray!!

First up is the Land Raider Achillies Infernal Relic.  This is from the Imperial Armor 13 book and it is a doosie.  Over 300 points of hard to kill awesome.  The quad mortar of hate is so #fullofmurderfacehate.  If the vehicle loses a HP you up the strength and lower the AP by 1.  Not to be outdone is the 2x twin-linked multi meltas and ceramite armor.  Can you say hard to kill.  I went with a nurgle theme as I have 2 other regular landraiders that run the Plague fathers colors as well.  I also had plenty of icon bits of nurgle to really sell the idea. BTW you can take dirge casters and the other CSM vehicle add-on's as well. Still a WIP but you get the jist.

My HTC has the purple lens flaw so I apologize. 

Next up is the CSM Fellblade.  I was going to use this in my mechanicum army, but IA:13 made this possible for my CSM.  It only has be started and I'm still deciding on weathering etc, but I'm pumped about this one.

Sorry for the bad pic as I was in a hurry to run out the door.

So dreadnought and helbrutes.  The pretty much suck, but I really like the formations and I love dreads still.  The IA13 again saves the day and makes them better ( not great ) but now they have some kind redeeming qualities.

This is the 4th paint job on the nurgle dread and I actually like it.  I used the same scheme as the soul grinder I did in a past post. 

Here is a ton of work I just signed up for.  ~2 hours a piece for building these guys.  The little spore bits are driving me crazy!!! I have built 1 already as Tyrannocyte, but I may do 2 as Sporocyts. I think the  latter unit will play a huge roll for the nids. The 4th is a craps shoot for now.  Let me know if you have played either unit and your thoughts.

Glottkin 40k. The New GUO and 3 models for 1 purchase! relic CSM achilles

Been working on this for a week or 2 now and must say they have been turning out different than I expected but better as well. So Glottkin showed up for fantasy a few weeks ago and I love the model, but I don't play fantasy.  So start up the conversion engine and lets get to work.

First the Glottkin is 3 models.  1 big dude, 1 warrior guy, and 1 sorcerer. You can see where I'm going. CSM and Daemons .  3 HQ's for $77. Not bad ( price was via ebay auction i snagged)

So I'm mid way through this and it has been an awesome project to work on so far.

The warrior (AKA CSM nurgle lord ) is a beast!!  Chain fist and combi bolter.  I modeled on a terminator base as he is a termi lord with almost total corrupt armor.

The sorcery (AKA CSM nurgle sorcerer ) dude will be on a palanquin base and has the plasma pistol and force staff for the win.

The big dude (AKA GUO ) has been a thought process.  The other 2 guys are supposed to be standing on him. making blank space. not good.  So i filled the space with what any respectable nurgle fan would do.  Nurglings!!  also some bits from plague drones to fill the holes that had swords and stuff.  Massive model.  I just wish besides Lord Scabbathrax he was a beefier GUO rules wise.

Great Unclean One.

Last but not least the CSM nurgle Achilles i've been working on. I wanted to do god specific on this as my other LR's are nurlge as well.  I also had bits with nurgle heraldry.

So thats my update.  Check back for paint updates.

Greater Brass Scorpion and Friends!

My Ebay binge continues a blistering pace and all due to the Imperial Armor 13 book.  Again if you don't have it yet and are a Chaos player it is a great book.

Well the Brass Scorpion I won 2 weeks ago has been stripped,  put together, and a few coats of paint have made their way onto the model.  I can't wait to play this thing.  So cool looking and perfect for a Lord of War.

I had trouble picking a color to go with, but settled on my current chaos color scheme of red and bright silver.  It contrast well and so many of my other models are sporting that paint scheme.

I started on some lighting effects as well on the main cannon and the scorpion tail thingy.

Above you can see the blue lighting effect and see the start of the armor trim being painted.  I did try 3 other colors but none of them popped as much as the silver. BTW there is a ton of trim to paint on this thing so I'm breaking it up over a few days as not to get sloppy and rush this.

So here is what I mean about going with the same scheme.  I ended up changing the Decimator from brass to silver trim.  It just seemed to pop that much more.

Well after this gets completed I still have the Fell Blade to finish, but I have no idea what paint is going to end up on that.  Maybe a White ( death guard ) or Khornate type paint.

 Check back soon!  More PMAC to come.


 

Imperial Armor 13 arrives !! And Decimator Engine progress

I can't say how much I love this book enough!  So bad ass!  So much real game info as well.  Greater deamons, renegade IG, daemon engines, super heavies, relic machines!!! it has them all and just in time!

So over the last few weeks I have been grabbing a few things here and there from ebay.  I managed to snag some in need of TLC Decimator Engines.  Well after some paint and TLC they have been waiting for IE13 to arrive to see what rules they have. So as rules go they are ok, nothing OP , but not a pryovore.

Now for some pics

"What you talking about fool!" 

Ok so these are only 1 of them , they other has silver trim just to tell them apart.  I need to add some OSL effects as well as some gore, but the base is pretty much done.

Can't wait to start on my Greater Brass Scorpion. Can you say Daemon Engine Army??  :)
