Flames of War – Late War Universal Carriers

These nice looking Universal Carriers are from Simon’s collection.

These are all resin models.

Now that’s better…

In a previous post I talked about the problems I had had with the Citadel Spray Gun in undercoating a Land Raider.

You can see in this close-up how the thinned paint ran from the flat surface. Was not at all impressed.

So I tried again and got a much better result as you can see from the following photographs. Nice smooth finish.

Though this is a Grey Knights Land Raider, I decided early on with this force that the majority of the armoured vehicles would be a sandy desert colour. I used Citadel Foundation Paint, Tausept Ochre as the basecoat.

Fantasy Village

A fantasy village from a Warhammer demonstration game at GamesDay 2010 and was also on show in Warhammer World.. Buildings based on the Warhammer plastic chapel and watchtower and fortified Manor House.

It also uses the plastic Realm of Battle gameboards and the plastic walls and fences.

More photographs of scenery for Warhammer Fantasy.

Undercoating the Honoured Imperium

The next stage for the Honoured Imperium was a white undercoat.

A couple of Chimeras

These two Imperial Guard Chimera APCs are from Simon’s collection.

Flames of War German StuG G

These German Stug G miniatures come in the Open Fire Flames of War starter set. and are from Simon’s collection.

See more Flames of War miniatures in our gallery. Check out my workbench on the models I am painting.

Space Marine Statue – Honoured Imperium

This Honoured Imperium box set contains three pieces of plastic Warhammer 40,000 scenery, including a 6-inch high Space Marine statue, a broken Aquila and a section of ruined building. The statue (and variations) has appeared a few times before it was officially released.

The statue was a little more complex to put together. I did think it would have been nice to have some instructions. It was only after I completed the model that I realised that the instructions were on the side of the box.

See the workbench feature on the Honoured Imperium.

Land Raider Variant

A variant Land Raider entered into the GamesDay 2009 Golden Demon awards.

Ruined Building – Honoured Imperium

The ruined building that is included in the Honoured Imperium (as an afterthought to fill the sprue?) comes in two parts.

These fit together very easily.

Though quite nice, there need to be more ruins to make it more “realistic” when setting it on a battlefield. I might use it as the basis for a diorama.
