Inquisitorial Stormtroopers

As well as my other Daemonhunters Inquisitorial Stormtroopers which are based on the Cadian Kasrkin I have also decided to add a unit based on the Tallarn or I may just use them as inducted Imperial Guard.

The first stage was to base them, and like many Citadel Miniatures the Slottabase™ tabs are way too thin for the Slottabase™ slots. So a large amount of Green Stuff was required to ensure that gaps were not only filled, but also to stop the troopers leaning over.

You can see how they will look by checking out the workbench feature on the Tallarn blister.

How many visitors…

As I did last year I posted photographs live from GamesDay 2009 to this blog. One impact is a huge rise in visitor numbers on the day and the following few days after the event.

Of course the interest doesn’t last for ever and after a while the visits drop to their pre-GamesDay levels as you can see from the graph.

Of course one of the reasons for the huge spike is that everyone out there is interested in what new and exciting stuff is been seen for the first time at GamesDay. This year there was less new stuff than previous years so very little exciting stuff to photo and upload. I did though upload a fair few photographs, in the main of the fantastic Ork Shanty Town from Forge World.

I do hope that those visitors who enjoyed my GamesDay coverage will continue to visit the site and enjoy the many photographs I post and details of what I am working on, on my workbench.

Ork Trukks

A couple of Ork Trukks of mine about to move across the battlefield.

The Trukks are quite old and seem to come out in black when photographed, whereas they are quite rusty really. With the Trukks I am intending to use the old Trukks as Warbuggies.

The scenery are my desert boards in an unfinished state.

Cities of Death

This is from a game we had.

The scenery is a mix of Cityfight, the gothic ruins and Forge World. Mixed in there are some Forge World barricades and Warhammer 40K barbed wire.

Yes there in the middle is an unexploded Grot Bomb with probably one very confused, but very lucky grot.

Grey Knight Terminator

One of my Christmas presents was a Grey Knight Terminator.

The model goes together very nicely.

I used Citadel sand on the base and resin and slate from the Warhammer 40000 Basing Kit.

One of the issues of being one of the slowest painters in the world is that when you eventually do paint the models, you can find that they have been replaced by newer plastic versions, which sometimes are better, sometimes not, but usually different…
