Witchhunter Crusader – Inquisitorial Henchmen

I am adding some Henchmen to my Inquistorial force. I believe that the Crusader adds another attack (and a wound) for the Witch Hunter Inquisitor, but I am not 100% sure on this.

The Crusader (and the Crusader variant available in the Witch Hunters’ retinue) are probably my favourite Inquisitor models.

Having flocked the base with Games Workshop modelling sand, the model was given a white undercoat.

See full workbench feature on the Crusader.

Witchhunter Familiar – Inquisitorial Henchmen

I am adding some Henchmen to my Inquistorial force. I am not quite sure what a Familiar is and what they do for the Witch Hunter Inquisitor, but it is an interesting model nonetheless.

Having flocked the base with Games Workshop modelling sand, the model was given a white undercoat.

Witchhunter Dialogus – Inquisitorial Henchmen

I am adding some Henchmen to my Inquistorial force. I am not quite sure what a Dialogus is and what they do for the Witch Hunter Inquisitor, but it is an interesting model nonetheless.

Having flocked the base with Games Workshop modelling sand, the model was given a white undercoat.

Inquisitor Lorr

At the beginning of March 2005 on my (old) blog I mentioned that GW were releasing a limited edition Witch Hunter model that would only be sold in the stores on the 2nd and 3rd April.

Well I didn’t think I was going to get one, but I was on my way over to Simon’s for a game of Space Hulk and stopped off at the GW store and picked one up.

It is a very nice model and is based on the Witch Hunter model that is available in the boxed set, but has a different weapon (plasma pistol) and is pointing rather than holding a sword. Personally I think it is a better model.
Now at the time I thought do I paint it, or do I keep it and sell it on eBay in a few years time (or does everyone do that).

After much thought (well two and a half years) I decided that I would put together the model and paint it. The casting comprises a single casting, but the model is in two parts. The model goes together very easily.

Having flocked the base with Games Workshop modelling sand, I gave the model a white undercoat.

Rules can be found in White Dwarf #304 for this model.

Tallarn 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.

Having fitted them to their bases and flocked the bases I gave them a white undercoat.

I do like these models.

Grot Bomb Launcha

The Forge World Grot Bomb Launcha is probably my favourite model of all time.

Having given my Grot Bomb (from my Grot Bomb Launcha) a base coat of Desert Yellow, the next stage was a wash.

I gave the bomb a wash consisting of Chestnut Ink, Scorched Brown paint (which helps remove the gloss of the ink) and some water to thin the wash down.

I gave the launch structure a basecoat of Chaos Black. For some reason the resin has warped a bit, not sure how that happened, but I think as it is quite Orky, I am going to leave it as it is.

Here’s how the Grot Bomb looks when using one of my Wartrakks as the vehicle for the launcha.

Ork Aircraft Traktor Fuel Bowser

One of the Forgeworld models I have always liked is the Ork Aircraft Traktor and Launch Trolley. Ideal to go with my Ork Bommer.

Sadly this is now no longer available, so when stocks were running low (back in 2006) I bought one.

The model consists of the plastic Wartrakk and some resin pieces.

Having put the model together and started on the paint job, I wanted to tidy up and neaten the weathering, which seems to have worked.

Ork Killa Kan

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.

I then drybrushed the (new) black parts, first with Tin Bitz and then lightly with Boltgun Metal. I also painted the rockets with the red Foundation Paint.
