Slightly random question to any CSM/ Daemon players out there with a Decimator from Forgeworld- how big is the thing?

I'm really liking how those marines came out. Keep up the good work

Thanks War Kitten!

Pretty much a continuation of the earlier WIP post, with updated pics
More Wulfen, an old Mythicast Thunderwolf from long-pre-GW Thunderwolves (and looks it), another Lazarus robot for the Taghmata Hvergelmir and some updated pics of the Centurions and Harkon Frostmourne
Particularly happy with Frostmourne, since this is his second incarnation and I started that over a year ago, it's nice to have him nearly finished
Also, basing the Krakenspawn before I paint him (her?It?) and the gutsy space wolf goad

Last one for the night (morning...)
Briring, one of my Thunderwolf Cavalry, has had so many Thunderwolves die on him that the Iron Priests have built him a mechanical version
So far, apart from the juggernaut, there's bitz from the Dwarf gyrocopter, Skaven hell pit abomination and stormfiends, a space marine backpack vent and a Sicarian computer monitor in there... and I haven't started to convert the front legs (because they're in the black hole I call an office... somewhere...)
Anywho, enjoy and good night

Started the painting on the Krakenspawn, just flat colours for now. More updates as they become available

Went back over my army list and realsied I don't have the transports for my footsloggers, so I've been working on a couple of Rhino's, one for Greywolf's Pack and the other, probably, going to the Ulfwere.
Greywolf's boys took theirs from a chaos warband, probably Iron Warriors, whilst the Ulfwere were given theirs after defending a shrine world.

Kitbashed a gun of some sort last night, thinking I'll use it as a conversion beamer on a relic predator.

Questions/ comments/ criticisms welcome!

Hello again!
Sprayed Greywolf's rhino and started work on the additional plasticard armour for the Ulfwere's relic rhino, but no pics yet
Have revisited my old Land Raider Ares and finally worked out how to fit the frontal dozer blade using spare Defiler bits
More space wolves on the build, and the thunderwolf cavalry riders almost done, some pics of that by monday
For now, enjoy the Ares!

Your work is fantastic. Some of those marines are so gritty and dark.

Thanks Corpuschain!

Some love for the 13th Company- transports! Still WIP but...

Some progress on packs and such; Norring Ork-smiter's Grey Hunters assembled to a paintable level! Strangely difficult to find that Chaos/ Imperial blaance whilst sleep deprived
Also wrote an army list for some Wolfbrother Marines, using the Chaos codex. Needed to fill points so I chose appropriate wargear, named him, then made a model!

Should really post some new stuff, but it's late and it's not easily available... So some more work in progress!
Some of the Grey Hunters from Norring Ork-Smiter's Pack; one with a plasma pistol, another with a powerfist, a bolter and chainsword bloke and the ubiquitous standard bearer
I've been told the plasma pistol Grey Hunter looks too Khornate. Might swap a weapon or something.
Also some work on Gemin Sandwalker, of the Wolfbrothers, and one of several Wolfbrother Initiate packs I'm working on. Chaos Cultists, using a mix of Ungor, Skaven, Cadian and Goblin plastics (pretty much whatever I wasn't using for something else) All packs will be 35 strong. Need to greenstuff the skaven heads to look more lupine, and fix the hooves on the ungors to be clawed feet. Fair bit of work.

As always, comments/ criticisms/ request for biscuit recipes welcome!

Goodnight

Found a set of 1/35 scale tank tracks in the local hobby store. Here they are on a land raider. Thoughts?

Just went through your blog and just have one thing to say :


Regarding the tracks I'd personally say go for it, but I am a big fan of the mark 4 tadpole, so clearly biased
Keep it up !

Thanks KernelTerror!

Should have his pack finished soon!

Evening all! Been working on my converted Land Raider, Hekate

I'm building Hekate as a Redeemer, but it's not technically a land raider
It was recovered from a technologically advanced, noncompliant world by the Lost Companies, tested, and found to fulfill a similar role to the Redeemer
That's my fluff anyway
So I thought, since it's running non-standard tracks and hull bitz anyway, and has stormfiend miniguns in place of assault cannons, why not modify the flamestorm cannons too
I'm thinking of taking the warpfire throwers off the Boneripper model cluttering up my office (the new one) and mounting them in the sponsons
Probably mount the smaller ones on top of the bigger ones to fill space

I've included some (bad) pictures to give you the basic idea

Thoughts?

Kurnost's "Can't sleep so I built a miniature" hour is here again!
First, some fluff:

Whilst the Bear clan of Urd bore the brunt of fighting the Genitors Chaos Marines, the forge-fathers of the Iron Blood clan struggled to overcome their foe's technological advantage. They were partially successful with the Iron Fist power suits, but these armours were cumbersome, heavy and tiring to wear. It was 35 years before they were able to craft an armour nearly as resilient as the tainted power armour of their foes, by which time it was too late to drastically alter the course of the war. Whilst these advanced armour suits were given priority in the evacuation of Urd, they number barely a score of the hundreds of suits of armour rrecovered from the doomed world.

And on to the pics!
There's Necron, Stormcast, Dwarf and AdMech bitz on this guy, quite happy with him!

Cool ideas with this skaven parts, they definitely have mechanicus aspect to them, so I think the forgefather story works well with those (A bit rusty on my SW fluff though). I just am unsure about the blue round armor platings on them, not sure they fit with the square Land Raider, you'd need to try them on I guess !

And hell yeah more sigmarine, looking good !

Evening all!

It seems that I have a bad habit of spontaneously kitbashing characters
I'll be happily rummging through my bitz box and something wil catch myeye... then another something, then a full-fledged idea..... Then I'm up past 3 am building whatever I've just devised

So, I present Ainethach th Oathsworn, commander of the Warbears and last king of Urd

Hello dakka!
Some more (slow) progress on the Warbears; Star Breakers!
Specially trained Warbears in advanced armour, wielding star breaker mauls, these were the final word in Star Warrior (Chaos) slaying
Unfortunately, by the time they were ready the war for Urd was already lost. They only fought once, in Ainethach's strike against the Genitors' leadership, before being evacuated from Urd

So I've worked out the flame/plasma weapons for Hekate (I think)... Many skaven bitz shoehorned into the sponsons
Let me know what you think

Wow. What a great thread. Some really fantastic conversions.

I love how everything is really brutal looking. My fave is Kraken hydra thing. A really great piece.

Morning Dakkka!

Firstly, evildrcheese, thanks for the kind words! Good to know you like. I'm finding the krakenspawn to be a centrepiece which is odd since I basically saw the model on the shelf and thought "I must have this"
Thinking of a separate force possibly using the Nid codex full of similar beasties- krakenspawn, frost giant hive tyrants, dragon-riding space wolves as nid flyers, stonehorn carnifexes etc. But later. Later....

For this morning, been working on the company. Dug the whole thing out, went over the list and found the missing bits, currently 45 wolves, 23 bikers and several transports. The Companies are deployed on my kitchen table so I don't forget about them

Also worked on filling up units, have a Wolf Guard or two and some Long Fangs for you

As always, questions/ comments/ cocktail recipes welcome! Enjoy

Ooops, nearly forgot these boys!

Fith's Pack, of the Great Company of Ulfun Alf-Ven
The pack who claim Hekate as their transport travel in ancient, battle-scarred Cataphractii warplate

A pack of 6 terminators with combi-weapons and chainfists, backed by a redeemer and a heavy flamer to discourage charges

Some more work in progress!

Radd Ingolsson, Wolf Priest of the Lost Companies, gets a new, relic-y bolter to represent the Bite of Fenris

Tymvaul Black-Cull, Blood Claw pack leader in desperate need of new paint but finally assembled

And a THunderwolf rider for Gunnar's Hunt, all with double Wolf Claws

Cool. Looking forward to see how the BaC stuff progresses.

Hey Dakkaites, been a while! How is everyone?
I've been busy with work and life, but found some time to work on my Wolves recently!
So here we have some more members of Fith's Pack (BfC Cataphractii), Blood Claw Pack Leader Blackclaw, based on Arjac Rockfist, and Lone Wolf Bronrod.
Thoughts/ questions/ comments/ random songs welcome! Have a great one!

Some WIP on Fith, Pack Leader of... Fith's Pack

Wolf Guard Pack Leader, Chainfist, Combi-Plasma

F'lor Martol was raised to the Wolfbrothers early in the 200's M42, a few years after N'Ton El'Oban. When the Althing decided to send Great Company N'Ton back to the Imperium, F'lor was seconded to them to fill the role of Chaplain
