One of the impressive games this year at GamesDay 2009 was the mega game which comprised a large Imperial city surrounded by a defensive wall. Outside the wall was a bridge.
On the bridge the forces of chaos are moving to attack the Imperial City.
The model builders had used lots and lots of Imperial Bastions and Shrine of the Aquila. For the citybuildings they used the Cities of Death building kits. There were a fair few Valkyries flying about the game too.
Before the plastic Shadowsword was released this year, Forge World had their resin version.
This model was entered into the Golden Demon awards at GamesDay 2005.
More photographs of Shadowswords. More photographs from GamesDay 2005.
One of my Christmas presents was a Grey Knight Terminator with a Psycannon.
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one of the slowest painters in the world is that when you eventually do paint the models, you can find that they have been replaced by newer plastic versions, which sometimes are better, sometimes not, but usually different…
Workbench feature on the Grey Knight Terminator with Psycannon.
Ork Boyz from my Ork army moving across the battlefield, a ruined Imperial city.
Most of these Orks have heavy weapons, whilst one of them has found a Boar!
More photographs of Orks.
This a Chaos Stormlord was part of a demonstration game at GamesDay 2009.
More pictures of Chaos BaneBlades.
So you’re an Imperial Commissar and you need a personal transport.
No way are you going to be happy with a Chimera or a Leman Russ, no you need the biggest and the best, you want a Baneblade super heavy tank.
This very nice Baneblade modified for an Imperial Commissar was on display at GamesDay 2007.
More photographs of Imperial Guard Baneblade super heavy tanks.
Based on the chassis of the Malcador the Minotaur provides self propelled artillery.
See more photographs of the Minotaur.

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.
…and here they are out of the box in their raw metal state.
You can see how they will look by checking out the workbench feature on the Tallarn blister.

One of my (2007) Christmas presents was a box of Space Marine Masters of the Chapte.

It is my intention to paint them up as Grey Knights. I am attempting to paint a Grey Knights force which goes beyond the listings in the DaemonHunters Codex. What I am trying to do is to create a Grey Knights force (using the Space Marine Codex) and then using a DaemonHunters force as allies.
