Here are some more photos of Simon’s excellent Sisters of Battle Immolator.
A closer view.
Sisters of Battle Immolator
This fantastic Sisters of Battle Immolator is from Simon’s collection.
He recently finished it and brought it over when we had a game, so I took a picture using my photographic terrain.
It is a great model and he has done a fantastic construction and paint job.
Imperial Guard Rough Rider
This is a Rough Rider from Simon’s Imperial Guard army.
Luckily for my Orks, he has only one and it took him a year to finish!
Orks and Guardsman in Space Hulk
Over the last couple of months when I have had a chance for a game I have been playing Space Hulk (second edition).
It’s a fun game and well worth playing.
However today we played a different version which was a lot of fun.
Virtually all the board pieces were used, I had ten Orks (well two were Grots), Simon had ten Guardsman.
Oh yes I also had some Boar Boyz down there…
The objective was to get to four of the six rooms (in the second game we played it was all six rooms0 before the other player, the catch was that each room contained a *surprise* which was decided on a dice roll.
In the second game the table was:
2 Space Marine Dreadnought
3 Death Ray, D6 with 5,6 an automatic kill of the person who entered the room
4 a Terminator
5 2 Genestealers
6 an Ork
7 a Genestealer
8 a Guardsman
9 2 Genestealers
10 an Ork in Mega-Armour
11 9 Genestealers
12 Ork Killa Kan
We used in the main 40K rules, though you had to be in base-to-base to assault. It worked surprisingly well.
Playing was a lot of fun.
Ork Skorcha
I have finished my Ork Skorcha.
I still want to add some more detailing and I will probably add another couple of grot riggers (using fantasy snotlings).
I think the armour skirts are slightly too low, but they still work.
Sleazy Rider
This limited edition from Citadel in the 1980s became very rare as they withdrew it very quickly from sale.
I painted the fuel tank in Soviet colours as the painted model in White Dwarf at the time had its fuel tank painted with the stars and stripes and I didn’t think I could get the lines straight.
It is probably now one of my favourite models of all time and I now wish I had not sold it on eBay a few years back…
It should be noted that this was in fact a fantasy model and pre Warhammer 40K…hence the wooden wheel, though the back wheel was from a Judge Dredd model.
Skorcha
Having washed the model, I went and gave it a drybrush to tone down the wash and accentuate the detail.
I also did some more on the motorbike front and the fuel trailer.
Ork with Rokkit Launcha
I have undercoated my conversion of an ork with a Rokkit Launcha.
It is a plastic Ork Boyz model, then using a Shoota and sticking a metal grenade (from the Stormboyz set) in the end, making it look very much like a panzerfaust. The head is also from the Stormboyz set.
