How hard do you reckon it would be to take the big wolfs head off the front?

By the front you mean each side?. You looking to remove the Icon in order to use it elsewhere or remove the icon from the model?

I imagine a good file will take it off the panel. Not too difficult. Are you looking for SW icons? I still have a bunch of things I didn't put on these two. Sheilds, pelts ect. Was thinking about using some for the eventual SW TW cav, I'll be building for YB someday!

The opposite actually. I like the general shape of the ship, and have seen it used in place of Caestus Assault Ram, but would like to de-wolfify it. I have no concern for saving the wolf's head.

I think it would be fairly easy and way within Ramo's skill for you to have done!

Beautiful work SL. Man that turned out nice with the darker trim on the front. Great contrast to the light grey/blue of the body.

I was thinking more Shark and less Scorpion, actually.

I'd like to see what you come up with if you do; and How they compare to the original Assault Ram.

Will do. Just have to decide if its worth the $50 gamble or not.

I am filing the wolf heads off it with a file and dremel atm, I can PM you how I do it if it works?

Are you going to post on your plog? I (we) can check it out there if so!

Very snazzy.

No progress this weekend due to illness. All I managed to do was pull out some Necron tomb Blades to see If I have enough to make a viable list. Back to bed.

ouch. Hope you feel better.

Thanks Stormwall and all.

Working on my Orks. but in the between I'm trying to get some GMS final touches up and done.

Managed to get another game in with Yellowbeard. This time Lamenters using WS tactics vs his SW. Was totally slaughtered. SW for the WIN. 7 to 24. What was amazing is the fact that he did this with out using the 6 man TW cav. Yes it was that bad. I'm guessing my 'bike' list is not that great. This is the 3rd 'spanking' I've recieved. I'll give it one more shot this week against the same army. If this continues I'll look for another build... maybe BA's.

Very cold this weekend so didn't do any painting. But still I was excited to get 'something' done. I had a bunch of foam board left from my recent terrain and road works that I donated to my local FLGS. ( they had very crappy terrain ). So I got out the xacto knife and just went at it. In all I built several large (30') buildings fronts that could be use to define a interior of a single building. 4 other 'Insides' of building and general terrain. Not sure when I'll get to applying the paste on the edges as I got to get the few things I need done for Adepticon. Namely tomb blades and some Lamenters ( not playing in the tourney this year, but will be playing as many Pick up games as possible )

Yeah, but you forgot to mention that the dice were all one sided: yours were incredibly BAD, while mine were disproportinately good. There's no way a stock Grey Hunter Squad should have taken down a Command Bike squad with Khan, a Librarian, and an Apoc!

I managed to get some modelling done this weekend. Maybe someday I'll take some pics and resurrect my plog.

True but thats what did happen...dice can be what hey may in anygame! Statagey was still sound. Tie up my tough units while picking off the rest. Still a great win.

Excellent.. will be good to see you at it again!

I saw those buildings on another blog. As the owner of your old set... I'd actually pay you to make some to go with my current city board. They are fantastic!


I can empathize... my boys have been kicking the collective *sses of my marines and grots all over the table lately. The marines are especially hapless.

Odd.. they are just very basic. You have a lot of nice terrain. I can put some together for you but I'd have to up the quality to match your current stuff. And as always free of charge!

I actually like the list. It may be too selective, but if i go with a more general list I may find the outcome to be no different.

The crashed Talon is among my all time favorite pieces you've done. You seem to have a particular talent for terrain and getting it to feel right. Even the basic stuff still comes out very nice.

Thanks, thou you'll almost never see it in games as I do most of my gaming at my local game store. Same for all the set peices ( drums, crates and piping et ) for all those AC displays.

I've alot of stuff I've not shown; larger domes, those storage tanks ( I got from work - pages back ), stuff for my own table. This new stuff is for everyday gaming and based off of ease of use and not necessarly all that detailed. Still it's better than what my FLGS has. I'll try to get some pic of the new larger buildings ( 30' length ) sometime this week.

Someday I'd like to do a Imperial wall defence line or maybe a canal with bridges. My Flgs needs all the variety and help it can get!.

I still check out threads about the Pasadena Game Empire, because I donated my terrain from my home board(in exchange for store credit). Some of the stuff is still going strong even 7 years later. I built my stuff for durability, because I don't treat things nicely.

Those buildings you made make me want to put ladders and walkways on them and bust out my Cawdor gangers!

I think you have hit a good sweet spot between functionality and aesthetics. Good looking terrain is cool until you can't use it and then what?

Thanks.. I miss playing NM.. perfect game for a campaign.

So as promised here is quick camera shot of the recent terrain I'm building for my FLGS. I built some bigger ruin sectons. The two big buildings are 30" long & 3 story's tall and each floor can fit a normal dread or crisis suit. Figures for scale. Some new road sections as well to go along with my recent overpass's.

These are just in the assembly stage so no details. I'll dress them out a little and get some texture on them ( namely to cover the foam edges ) and get to spray painting.They will be painted in the same style as the previous batch... below...

Awesome! I could totally see my Cawdor charging across that only to get gunned down by Ice's Van Saar, maybe getting one dude in close combat and then bottling out...

Just think about the stuff you could do with a gang now that plastic is the way it is.

Golaith player here... maybe some Adepticon we could do some gaming old style.

Why are you suddenly in the EU?

Nice terrain work. Simple but effective.

Sweet! That's going to be great to play on.

Seriously, I've developed a teleporter and most likely hunting an arch villian named Moonpie whom is set on world domination.. that sounds believable...doesn't it?
I mean the arch villian thing not the teleporter.
actually... Don't know!

Translation: Sweet.. this will be a great piece of terrain to destroy your pitiful excuse of a marine army against my unbeatable Space Wolfs list of increadable furryness!

Too be honest .. I see the pic showing that terrain set up as 2 IG armies trenched in and shooting at each other.. WW2 Stalingrad anyone?

Ah Necromunda, how I miss thee.

Solar I would have never pegged you as a Goliath player. I would have guessed Orlock or possibly Delaque.
