SHOWCASE: Second Iron Warriors Contemptor.

Hi guys, well at long last I've built and painted the second Contemptor, Loving the pose of this fella and fits in nicely with the two other Dreads that I've painted so far.



As with the last Contemptor I've armed him with two Kheres Assault Cannons modeled out of FW aircraft Punisher Cannons.



I'm more happy with the yellow on this mini compared to the fist Contemptor but hey it's a learning process and to be honest it's not that noticeable.


Photo of them both together, Thinking of something different to complete the talon....watch this space.

Burning of Prospero: Horus Heresy boxed game.

Well then guys this looks very interesting from GW (Warhammer) and again great value for money at £95.


Apart from my beloved Iron Warriors (hands down best Legion in the 30k setting) this set comprises of probably my two next favorite Legions, Of course the MkIII marines and Termies are generic and can be painted in whatever legion colours you want but those two character miniatures are ..well wow awesome!.



Apart from the awesomeness that are Ahzek Ahriman and Geigor Fell-Handed.... Bjorn wasn't the only one then, You get five Custodian Guard and five Sisters of Silence with the Sisters looking very fine indeed, Plus the aforementioned marines and termies, Looks loads better than the BatC set to me.

WIP: Iron Warrior Contemptor No2.

Well guys though I would show you a bit of progress of my second Iron Warriors Contemptor.

Most of the hard work is done, soaking of the resin (sometimes for days, does my head in) posing and gluing together, base, guns, basecoats etc all that stuff finished just the colouring in to go now.....the best bit!


Very happy with the pose of this monster, I see the Dread slowly walking down some narrow war torn street putting holes in things left and right as he goes, all grim dark thoughts hear folks.


I did his base a while ago and can't wait to get the fella stuck to it, it's the one on the left the other was for my Leviathan.

Anyway guys should have this mini done soon... famous last words may take six months if you know me, I am a tad lazy ;)

SHOWCASE: Iron Warriors Leviathan Dreadnought.

Hi guys at long last I've finished the big guy.

I'm very happy with how it turned out and he looks the business next to other painted Iron Warriors, I'll have to get a group photo up of them soon but I'll wait till there's a few more first.



I'm particularly cuffed with it's base detail and have carried on with the same heat burn on this guys gun barrels as I have on the Contemptor I painted earlier in the year.




Well that's it, Hope you like it fellas....next up on the bench a second Contemptor and finally the finished Tac Squad (about time!!).

Armies on Parade: 2016.

Hi guys, Are any of you partaking in this years Armies on Parade.


I missed out last year due to family holiday but did attend the event the year before in 2014, It was my first time at AoP and I left things to the last minute so didn't have many miniatures on the tile but it was a great day down at Leeds GW (Warhammer).


This was the effort back in 2014 my much loved 40k Scythes of the Emperor on martian bases and tile, Never did get that martian sand to look right and the board is pretty sparse, If i do take part i hope that my next effort will look lots better plus it gives me inspiration to sort out all those half finished units.

Well fellas there's around ten weeks if your up for it, Good luck.
