Inquisitorial Stormtroopers (Tallarn Imperial Guard)

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.

Having given the models a white undercoat, I gave the models a basecoat of Desert Yellow.

Next stage will be a wash.

Gallipoli 1915

With Warhammer Historical available, GamesDay 2008 wasn’t just Fantasy and 40K, in Hall 1 there were a fair few historical wargames on show using the various Warhammer Historical rules. This is nothing new, last year we saw was Aly Morrison and Dave Andrews’ excellent World War One demonstration game.

Demonstrating The Great War rules were two games one set in Gallipoli and one in 1914.

Very nice terrain and some great models.

You can see many more pictures of the historical wargaming on my website.

To see more pictures from GamesDay 2008 have a look at my GamesDay 2008 Gallery.

Punched back…

In a previous blog post I posted a photograph from a recent game in which my Orks were advancing across the battlefield.

My Orks cross the battlefield from a game of Warhammer 40K.

Packs quite a punch as there is a fair bit of heavy support.

Of course the reality is that not everything goes to plan, especially if the opposing Imperial Guard have a Medusa to hand…

Alas the main weapon on the Gunwagon was destroyed and not a Mek to be seen…

See photographs from a range of Warhammer 40K games.

We have the technology…

After accidentally dropping my Ork Stormboyz Nob I put him back together again.

Now I just need to start painting him to match my Stormboyz mob.

Imperial Guard Baneblade

Here is another photograph of Simon’s BaneBlade, it is very BIG! He’s done a really nice job on it and it looks very impressive on the battlefield.

More photographs of Imperial Guard Baneblade super heavy tanks.

Ork Killa Kan III

This is the third of my trio of Ork Killa Kans.

Originally I had planned to have a colour body, so the main body of the Killa Kan had a white undercoat as seen in the workbench feature.

Well as I started to paint it I knew that it wasn’t going to work and it wouldn’t look right. Maybe okay if it was a single Killa Kan, but in my squadron of three it was going to look odd. So I stopped painting the colour, let it dry and then went over the area with Chaos Black before drybrushing it.

This stage was to add some more detailing including painting the Ork glyphs.

I have blogged about the base previously.

Ork Stompa Photos

My local Games Workshop has the new Ork Stompa on display in their window and I managed to get a couple of photographs of it.

It is one BIG model, much bigger than the BaneBlade.

It certainly looks the part and (as with most models) looks a lot better in the flesh than in the photographs.

They were taking pre-orders so I bought some plastic gretchin!

On the counter, not finished or painted was the new Stormlord which did look very mean and nasty, well it would with twin linked 15 dice Vulcan Mega Bolter!

Deploy the artillery
