Trying to finish this tank before christmas. I think I will be abel to do it :) .
Done and done. I will be taking some better pictures. Was planing on having my second game with my blackshields today but after some family stuff we had to cancel it. But i have had one game with them 2016. And now we are looking forward to 2017 :) .
Almost done with the blackshield models. Really like how they are turning out.
So i went online....and got inspired....and build a thing. I took an old Leman russ tank and converted it to a vindicator for my blackshields. Now i see this model more as a place holder for a real forge world model. But i must be honest and say i do like the result of the conversion. Any way, i will now go back to my remaining dudes and try finish them and then start to paint this tank thingy.
Yesterday I for the first time put my blackshields on the gaming tabel and lost sadly. But it was a fun game. It all came down to one charge that i faild leaving my terminators in open for one turn with every gun the nightlords had pointing at the big deathstar. When my terminators feel it all was lost. Looking back at the game i dont think i could have done more then what i did. Everything was going super all the way up to the charge from the terminators. 7" charge with fleet somehow faild and i lost the momentum. Now the list will be getting some changes but overall it will be keept as it is. I will be runing it again before any big changes will take place.
Now first on my list of things to do, is to finish the five blackshields i already started. And after that think of any changes the list will get.
My blackshields are moveing on. Trying to get ready for my game tomorrow. Might not be abel to finish all of them. But i hope i can get most done before "kick-off" .
So time to finish my 2000p of blackshields. It is so fun to convert these guys. And hopfully I will get my army on the gaming tabel this week :) . Super excited !
So here he is. My test model and diabolist for my Word bearers are done. I wont take any better pictures of him right now, before 2017. But as soon as this project kicks off he will be official ;) . He is right now standing in a sea of my next project. I am looking to finish my 2000p of black shields before 2016 is over. I also have some other stuff i want to get done but we will see how much hobby 2016 have left :) .
Almost done with him :) . Think he is turning out fine. Going to be an awesome 2017 project.
The first layer of wash is on the model. I have also started to clean up some of the washed red armour.
All colors have been painted, now it is time for the first wash. I think my diabolist is coming along fine. Nice to paint something different :) .
I managed to apply some red paint on my diabolist :) .
Not super much have been done to the model. But i have changed his pose a little and of corse base coated him. Think i will get time tonight or tomorrow to start on the paint scheme for real :) .
The dawn of 2017 are slowly coming. In 2017 i and my gaming group will do something like a escalation campaign in horus heresy. From 1jan to 31 will be the first 500p pledge. Idea is that this will be runing all year ending late dec 2017 with a great battle and 2000p Horus heresy armys each. Hopefully this will be a nice and easy way for members to get started with horus heresy without feeling it will cost to much at once. A nice and slow campaign. I have been thinking long and hard about my choice and finaly made up my mind about my next horus heresy army. And my choice are Word Bearers. It will be something different from my iron warriors. More organic and exotic feel to it. This dose not mean however, that i will stop adding to my iron warriors or my blackshields. But before jan 1 i wanted to make a test model. Just to try my paint scheme and to get the over all feeling of the army. I now have converted up my first character, an diabolist :) .
Last of the Necron pictures :) . And time to start think about a new project.
More pictures of my silver machines :) .
So finally I can showcase my necrons. I have still not been playing with them since early 2015 but some weeks ago I took and finished up the army. I have made a 2000p army list with an additional 750p side board. The original list works heavily on formations and other sneaky ways to get the most out of my silver friends. The side board is for mixing things up as well for giving me the flexibility of not going with my formation heavy army list. The idea is that I can swap some units in and out to make something more old school based on the normal force org chart. So here are the first units of my necron army.
So here we are. The apothecary is done. And here are all of the apothecarys for my IV legion. I dont really know what I will start working on now. We will see :) .
Slowly getting there :) .
