Fellblade, Heavy Metal for your Khorne army

Like I said I have been very busy:) PMAC here with another Deamonic Engine of Doom.  This time in the Legion Fellblade.  Great model and pretty good rules.  BTW there is a Dark legacy rule in IA13 you can take giving all Daemons of Khorne +1 to there invul with 12".  ( very nice for a KDK army)

Do you even lift Brah?? Chaos Knight part 2

Back with some more pics of my progress.  I still have emblems and chains to attach and a bit more to paint. Enjoy!

Do you even lift Brah?? Chaos Knight Part 1

It's been awhile since I have posted, but have been steadily working on various 30k and 40k projects. The latest Chaos Knight had taken a long time to figure out just the concept of what I wanted to build. More pics to follow, but I wanted to get this crappy cell phone pic in to kick things off.

I went with lots of magnets and made him as Chaos undivided as possible.  Though I did magnetize the chaos god symbols when he takes a specific mark.  The power claw is just AWESOME and makes the model AFAIK. Definete center piece in my KDK army.  Also the Styrix head with in-build dirge caster plays ever so well with the scheme of things. BTW the Styrix Knight was said to lust after battle and even go on murderous rampages so it's not hard to see how this one was rebuilt for chaos. ( I'm writing a full fluffy background for this guy as well if you couldn't tell ) 

More to come in part 2!!!  ( lots more pics)

Waxing and Waning of 40k, or just go play 5th edition

http://23lines.blogspot.com/2015/05/to-all-tournaments-screwing-with-40k.html


Pretty much sums up all the banning GT's are implementing in recent 7th edition 40k.  And before jumping to a fan boy conclusion realize that TO's have a vested monetary interest in tournaments which ultimately will drive the decisions they make.  ( example is if no one wants to play a certain codex and therefore will not attend the TO will ban the codex Vs. not having the GT and suffer the financial consequence)

7th edition is not 5th edition, stop trying to make it that.

Already tired of Space Clowns!

I know its in the fluff, but it's dumb. 

So I'm probably going to get hate for this , but please can we stop with the stupid space ninja clowns! The fan boy stuff is getting old and the grim dark is already filled with poor examples of how combat works ( HTH and trench warfare VS using your gun like Cypher ) in the future much less the present day. Now we have an entire army of acrobats flying on hover boards with V for vendetta masks, using weapons that sound like valentines presents ( look for the up coming armory additions filled with stuff like "the kissy face", smooch bomb, and the orbital bombardment of spooning ).  I can't wait to see the tyranids new dex of evolved furries that kill with cuteness.  And while we are on tyranids the entire fact that they got screwed in psyhic powers( limited to their table ) , but still suffer the warp etc is now beyond stupid when the eldar codex is talking about eldar gods.  Were the hell are these gods???  Another Warp, they are dead ( gods die??) ? And before you say it , I know the tyranids perils is to show synaptic feedback.  Really?  Its the same as a daemonic presents raping your skulls and soul?  hmm that's a bit of a stretch.  Shadows works for squat now as well.  Sorry for the rant :)

Mechanicum transport : Triaros Armoured Conveyer Budget Pattern

I'm slowly building more and more mechanicum models and painting.  The 40k universe is starting to wear on me and I feel like 30k is actually better.  So with that I'm keeping up my hobby progress limited for now to the Horus Heresy. I'm set on selling a 40k army soon, but have to determine what one.

Now for the Triaros Armored Conveyor I came up with since I'm not too down with paying >$100 per model.  The Forgeworld ones are awesome , but Damn!!!  I modeled these as close I could to the actual transport.  Heavy bolter reps the mauler bolt cannon. the 2 little sponsons are the volkite servitor chargers. The front of these really represent the AV14 IMHO. The blue glowing thing is the force shield which i think plays better to the rules as it states the blast are -1 to the front of the vehicle.  These are also big!  bigger than a land raider so I'm pretty comfortable fielding these as  comparable to the original vehicle. A little more detail work and they will be ready to take to the battlefield.
