Is the base done with the new GW stuff?

As for the Electro priests that you mentioned in my thread I'll need to check them out. Probably just kitbash something though as I've got tons of bits and pieces left.


yeah i much prefer the new icon too looks less unwieldy,

good spot on the bases it is indeed the new GW stuff all i do is apply it and drybrush it with GWs kindleflame.

i'm sure what ever you do he will turn out looking cool.

Altarim Mas'ud company commander of the Tallaran 11th known as the sand raiders. The 11th regiment were called to the Sabbat system to gather intel on Kar'thor and his pirates. Their knowledge of covert desert war-fair is unparalleled. Altarim and his men have had several successful raids and have used delay tactics against Kar'thors troops effectively enough to stop Kar'thor becoming to much of a threat in the grand scheme of the war so far. Although the high command are unsure how long this will hold true.

Horon the fell-handed. When it came time to intern the fallen battle-brother Horon into a dreadnought body, the pirates sought the aid of a human follower of chaos blessed with wyrd powers. when the ritual was complete Horon rose again as a warp infused war engine. Rage filled his heart and his screams of agony can be heard echoing through the decks of Kar'thors ship.




i have also started on another of Kar'thors crew.

its been awhile as real life has got in the way but i have still been hobbing

Ransis Barinor was a vox specialist for the legionaries before the heresy, he still has an advance array interred in his armor able to reach a ship in high orbit. Although now his brothers voices aren't the only ones he hears he constantly whispers to himself and says he hears voices on the vox when no one else does.




here he is with the rest of Baltor Tal's kill squad



and my truescale chaos force in its entirety



i have also been doing some fantasy, and yes i have played Age of Sigmar. i like it as a small skirmish game but anything bigger than 30 models i will play 8th

so first up you have seen one already but here are my spirit hosts




here is a look from the back you can see their bases better

been a bit quiet as i have started a new job and find all my creative juices going to that rather than my models. that being said i have managed to crack on with some stuff mainly this.



with the additional graves i made earlier and some extra i have managed to produce a substantial graveyard for Mordheim and Age of Sigmar



i found a rather innovative way of basing my rows of gravestones using rulers



i had a lot of fun painting the crypts and even converted one to have a descending staircase inside

so after all that fantasy terrain i decided to do some quick 40k stuff as i see a lot of fantasy in my future here are some easy craters i made




i also got around to painting Altarim Mas'ud, he is about 95% done im really happy with how his base tured out just the sand effect i was going for and he is based using baking powder + superglue

here is my finished Stormcast Eternal i am very happy with the way he turned out i wanted to give him lots of free hand work as the shields are perfect once the molded on details are taken off and i wanted to link him to my vampires. so i imagined him as some sort of vampire hunter the metal work has all been glased with purple n blue hazes to look like tempered iron i think in the fluff of the stormcast they are reborn in lightening everytime they die so i imagine there armor is reforged each time.





speaking of vampires some new additions to my vampire counts, bat swarms




its been awhile since i made a metal model, these are the LOTR giant bats but i will be using them as batswarms

Stormcast looks fantastic. Really like the checkers and iconography. Nice work.

he makes a great companion to my Stormcast Eternal

so i got a lot to show you guys tonight firstly a new truescale marine



next up is my wizard for frostgrave, i wanted him to be some insane travelling preacher spreading the word, his search for the right words has driven him to insanity. he carrys a multitude of books to keep track of word combinations that are intresting to him





next up is a simple armsman, i wanted him to be affiliated with my stormcast/knight so went with a similar colour scheme and shield pattern




and here is my frostgrave expedition force so far, im in the middle of building an apprentice and a secound armsmen

Bentiear Tulm, not much is known about him he seem to be utterly loyal to the pirates cause and finds pleasure in dismembering the corpses of foes killed by his holy bolter with his ritual knife.

another truescale, he does have a bionic arm that i spent ages making then was promptly coverd by the shoulderpad
i also built another servoskull




small addition to my frostgrave warband



first up my wizards apprentice i wanted to keep up with the theme of spreading the word, so i created a massive horn type staff to project her words further, she also has bells to announce the warbands arrival bring more people to gather and hear her words




here is my second armsmen



i have plans for one more armsmen, then i want to add some ranged support a couple of crossbow men and a duelist there are no rules in frostgrave for pistols so he will probably just count as a third crossbowmen

huge update and i hope to be more active again firstly the lat bits of my frostgrave warband
armsmen



next up is the duelist and a crossbow men



and lastly my summoned creatures, an imp, a minor demon and a major demon




Unslor "The Hunter" leader of the strike team in Kar'thor Ulasis's warband, Unslor is the master of the hunt, chasing down enemies of the warband for sport. He is often first through the breach and excels at close quarter fighting.




The Legion Plagueius followers of Kar'thor,dont be fooled by their rag tag appearance, they are more organised then they seem and have exhibited a keen tactical cohesion much akin to the blood pack, though not as disciplined. Their ranks are made up of human traitors,mutants and abhuman scum. It is said that they are commanded by a cohourt of chaos worshiping xenos.




Designation "Servo Swarm" named so by the few surviving guardsmen to encounter them for their likeness to imperial servo skulls. Although some display similarities to the imperial design in appearance the similarities stop there. often making use of mutant skulls or decomposing corpses as bases the "Servo Swarms" were thought to be advanced recon units. However recent developments suggest they have a will of their own. Hunting down small groups the Swarms will rend flesh and drag off useful components, both mechanical and biological. Even evading or escaping a swarms attack does not always guarantee survival as meany have fallen victim to strong pathogens shortly after encounters with the"Servo Swarms".

finished off my "Servo Swarm" and five more cultists. I'm planing on running the swarm as a pack of furies in game.




Kantorius, deamon prince of nurgle. Not much is known about the deamon prince as Kar'thor is loathed to unleash him and only summons him in dire circumstances. How he keeps a deamon as powerful as the prince at his beck and call is strange, it is rumored that Kar'thor knows its true name
