This army is amazing as always and I am looking forward to seeing what you have up your sleeve dude.

As always I await with baited breath.

I'm going for 400 points in each army - that way our camapign can begin with the right combatants etc. It also means I now have a definate target for painting the little men and only have four or five vehicles to do.

So the remaining million or so points worth of grey plastic can wait - It's a load off my mind.

Gaps are just horrid eh! And they always seem to crop up about an hour before you need to take them to a game!!! That's a good idea setting a points target, it sure did help me get a wiggle on.

He's now been sorted. The old cockpit just didn't seem to work very well.

No he isn't!!

and tanks.... and titans

Cheers,

I'm focusing on troops now. My mate, ChaosBubbles, is supposed to be the armour support for my infantry/airbourne yet I seem to have amassed more tanks than him. And he has a lot of tanks.

TJBM. You won't have to wait long as I have some things to show in a mo.

I had my first game with these guys the other night. I still class myself as a rookie as I've not properly played since 3rd Ed. so took them down to my local GW on Tuesday for Adult Beginners. Played against a chap with Orks and was a hoot. Great thing about Guard is that the sheer numbers act as a great deterrent! plus when you have three mechanised squads waiting in reserve it puts a big downer on their spirits. All was well to begin with, took out all of his vehicles in turn one thanks to my Vanquisher and AT-Heavy Support squad. Then WAAAAAGH! were declared and then it got a bit hairy. But my old luck stuck with me as I managed about five or six direct hits. It seems that my 784 years of bad luck I accumulated from doing a mirror range review at B&Q decided to take the night off! Ended up with me losing as I failed to capture one objective while the other was contested (you try charging into Ork lines!!!).

Anyway, enough about the game. Onto the minis!


WiP Renegade Champion attached to my Heavy Support Platoon.


This is that Lascannon Sentinel. Managed to liberated some bits.


This one is done. I think.


The old Chimera sporting new track guards. ChaosBubbles made a huge FW order and everything pretty much turned up bent. I spent three hours helping him fix it but the track guards he ordered were beyond use for his style of army. I called FW support (answered straight away, four tea-break must've just finished) and they said they'd send a replacement out free of charge. So he gave me the mangled guards and with a lot of blood, faecal matter and greenstuff I have made it usable!

I start Uni next week and it's a 3hr round trip to get there and back. I think updates will be a bit thin on the ground for a while. I am getting things together to sell on eBay today 40k-wise to add to my Uni fund. Any requests just post here or PM me and I will see what pops up. Also, as usual, please click on the pictures in my blog and make a comment/vote within the Dakka gallery.

Many thanks for looking!

Amazing I do like salvage bits from pretty mangled models and create something beautiful as I have done with the box of 40 odd Cadians I was given by a kid from across the street.

5 are now Special forces operatives the rest are going to be handlers (Squad Leaders) for the Penal Legion I am making

(All in all I have abandoned the Catachan Airbourne idea...lack of funds) lol

But yea dude keep it up keep it up think BIGGER now more guns and more chaotic nastiness!!

Love the MG base and the hellhound. Really nice touches. The HH looks rickety and the armor level is appropriate.

I have a burnt out Lamborghini Countach on my city table.

sweeeeeeeet!

So that is going to be your standard "pattern" of Chimera going forward?

Also, naughty on the Lascannon Sentinel flag...

hehe i lvoe the champion with the banner and the sentinels lookfgreat btw

what was the helmet for the champion?

it looks familiar and yet......unfamiliar.

oh thats not smart at all

I really like the champion with flag. He is just... impressive.

In terms of parts interest, how many Cadian Vox Operator backpacks do you have? And have fun at Uni, I'm in the same situation.

Love it all esp. the champion head, how did you make it?

Yeah, airbourne is expensive. And I'm finding it hard to b motivated to make my Valk. Anyway, I'm gonna keep an eye on your stuff.

Many thanks. It was the first bit of armour I made especially for my renegades so it was a bit of an experiment but worked out well. A Contach!? What is it, a planet of millionaires?

I have no standard! Mwah ha ha! But I do plan on making another in the future as I like it. And it's not naughty - it's a statement about the Imperium

Champion head is a Cadian Voxcaster head with the eye slit filed down and shoving SM scout goggles in place.

I will have a look later but backpacks are usually earmarked for my forces as I can't stand Guard without backpacks.

Thanks. Already mentioned above how I made it (Vox-head + Scout Goggles = That Head)

---------------------------------------

I'm painting up a few things today. Taking my car into a garage so I have a little time. Painting up the walking Russ as well so I can take that in next Tuesday.

Can't wait.

Good stuff i like the new additions

Great character on these conversions, infilTRAITOR, great work as always.

Okay, so it's been two weeks since I updated anything and I can't say I've got a lot to show for my absence. Not really been in the mood to really do anything as it takes me two hours to get to Uni then another two hours to get back. Damn you rush hour and school runs!!

Anyway, yesterday was my first day off in a while so I decided to at least make something. As you all know I need another squad of men so I decided to make each militiaman based on someone I know. This is for both fun and to test my barely adequate converting skills.

First up is me! This is based on my videogaming personality. I usually prefer to snipe as I'm rather good at it (the shoot and scoot kind, not the camping lamer) but it has come to my attention that I also have an alter-ego which seems to enjoy charging into hordes of enemies (usually zombies or banzai-charging Japanese) with only a shotgun and knife. So I give you...

...infilTRAITOR!



The muscles are wishful thinking.

Next up is my regular videogaming and 40k modelling buddy, ChaosBubbles!



He always seems to get a heavy machine gun and then puts the stupidest sniper scope on top of it. Also, you can't really see it, but he has grenades going all around his waste. This is due to the fact that whenever we get a new game he always, without fail, finds the grenade button first by accident and kills us both.

Next up I'm doing my girlfriend...

Also, finishing up my Valkyrie and Sentinels might be a good idea.

Not if I do her first

Good to see this being updated, I've been wondering whats going on with it. Good job .

Nice to see you've resurfaced. The new squad idea sounds and looks awesome.

Nice stuff.

lol awsome stuff love the machine gun

ork shoota right?

What's with all the Slipknot hate?

As always Infil., your work is an inspiration. Well, obviously not for my brightly-coloured, loyalist guard army; but it is lovely.

Any plans for the valks?

I thought Slipknot and hate went hand in hand. No major plans for the Valks I'm afraid. My idea of V-22ing them up went KAPLOW! when I found out they stopped making 1/48 scale Ospreys :(

I love them vids. Especially the noobs who try a desert eagle. They learn the hard way how sh*t it is.

Yeah, will strip it. It is still very WiP. Just bashed 'em together last night. and what's this I hear about a contest? A nitty, gritty armour contest?!?! WHY WASN'T I INFORMED!?!?!

Damned straight

The Arab with the shotgun in the room is the best, he tries it twice and fails even worse the second time.

Your other model is sweet too, looks like the old 30 cal.

Nice to see this is being updated, even if its small chunks. More inspiration! Really like this 'people in warhammer form' concept and execution, especially 'the muscles are wishful thinking'. Made me laugh.

This is cool as always I long to have enough courage to put some of my stuff up yea dude keep it up I await some new developments.

hmmm have you seen the fishing with an RPG? its really funny

anywho, what are you basing your valks on now? i was really looking forward to your interpretation of them
