Codex Orks

Released yesterday, however I got my copy of Codex Orks this afternoon.

Ork Codex

I am quite pleased with it, but though much bigger than the old Codex, I would like to have seen more colour pages in there.

The codex does change the Orks quite a bit and it will take some getting use to the new rules, it only feels like I was getting use to the old ones.

Nice to see the return of the Shokk Attack Gun and it looks nasty so I might get one!

I had intended to get a Trukk today alongside the Codex, but my local GW had sold out!

More thoughts another time.

Finished my Grey Knights (eventually)

After quite a long time I have finally finished the first of my Grey Knights.

These were started a few years ago and I never really got around to spending huge amounts of time on them, as other projects always seemed to take over.

I am quite pleased with them and I am using them as the basis for my other Grey Knights.

I am using desert basing to fit in with my desert terrain.

You can see how I painted these Grey Knights in the full workbench feature on them.

There is a datasheet for the Ork Submersible

Back on the 1st Jan I mentioned that there were a lot of rumours flying about the web about a possible Apocalypse Datasheet for an Ork Submersible.

Well it’s looking like the rumours are true. I have now seen the datasheet for the submersible so soon you will be able to use models like this one which was used at GamesDay 2007.

Ork Submersible

The other Ork datasheets include a huge flying mine layer, a horde (100+) Orks, a trukk force and a Pulsa Rokkit.

I just wish that GW published their datasheets in colour (as Forge World did).

Basecoating the Wartrakk

Having undercoated my Ork Wartrakk. I gave the non-metal parts (and the front tyre) a base coat of Desert Yellow.

Next stage will be a wash to accentuate the detail.

Grey Knights Land Speeder Crew

Having finished a lot of my Grey Knights Land Speeder, I started working on the crew.

I started with a black basecoat and then gave the armour a basecoat of Boltgun Metal.

Next stage will be highlights and details.

Vostroyan Basilisk

I think that Games Workshop missed the target with the Vostroyans, they had an opportunity to make something as good as Forge World’s Death Korps and I believe that they missed the boat. The Vostroyans are not quite right in my opinion, though I know others like them.

Land Raider Crusader

Space Wolves Land Raider Crusader.

This Space Wolves army includes virtually (if not all) the Space Marine models and conversions from Forge World as well as all the plastic and metal models from Citadel.

It was on display at both GamesDay 2006 and GamesDay 2007.

More photographs of this army. Also have a look at our Land Raider and Land Raider Crusader galleries.
