</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Ill understand if theres not many of you left. Ive been gone for a while, life can slow you down but it cant stop the rock!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Anyway without further a do, hobby time!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I know I promised you a magnetised multi back last time, all those months ago, and i did start/almost finish. But then the lovely wife got me this winged baby for crimbo.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Well thats the finished product, Pollus Tempestus.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">But how did we get there.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Firstly, if your not gonna be painting the canopies then you will need to paint the crew members before inserting them into the plane, and certainly before glueing the glass sections on!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I tried doing some OSL for them, the idea being that they were lit up from the control panels.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Also I wanted to keep the plastic servitor and techmarine bits for future projects so a little bit of conversion was done, the servitor being swapped for a cadian and the tech marine being swapped with a normal torso and a scout head. think they turned out good.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghln-UQEt3DkouexjK3h-7Nh5lUFpm-Uo1_DB-WuYJHdi5tRHhPUrNR3SsXSaFRgddrIpYNpK1RJ3hSDYvC1Bm-XZbvMuzdCdkjQ2xAK8TeOMiYN0lPqsMcv0ZCI7Irq5P_CjglgNvUAw/s1600/DSC00479.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghln-UQEt3DkouexjK3h-7Nh5lUFpm-Uo1_DB-WuYJHdi5tRHhPUrNR3SsXSaFRgddrIpYNpK1RJ3hSDYvC1Bm-XZbvMuzdCdkjQ2xAK8TeOMiYN0lPqsMcv0ZCI7Irq5P_CjglgNvUAw/s320/DSC00479.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I also magnetised the hurricane bolters on to the side. A small bit of spacing had to be done to make the bolters meet up with the magnet i placed over the door, thats just a piece of sprue over the door and sprue was used for the spacing too. The forge world doors, (kindly donated by <a href="http://avedominusnox.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Rob</a>) arnt magnetised as the friction holds them in place for now, but if necessary they will be in the future. Same can be said for the weapons on the servitor brick and the nose gun too. They arnt magnetised yet as i dont see myself using different combinations, but ive left it so that it would be easy to make this happen. The kit is well made and holds itself together well without glue.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Getting near the end of the construction i realised how MASSIVE this kit is with the wings on. I was either gonna need to buy a new case just to cart this around ormagnetise the wings. Well, always one for the cheap option....</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The wings hold themselves on the body pretty well, so i inserted a piece of movement tray in the upper intake and then drilled myself holes for the magnets. The hull is pretty thin so i drilled through at the relevent spots and then glued a piece of sprue under the holes for added security. Handy stuff that sprue!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The force of the magnets in the intake is enough to securely hold the wings in place.</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjferWrvqLooW8y16XlZ3zHSa7LTnQYFXA7XkCTrRgjMeh9koTW8KwGVV601D8F_aPUV3Np9v9WloLBEddjI77CbqJ7x6AC9BdV6bS1UO3fTvtjyqcKlFEfOPPDzJ7qTH9WUlm0VbLSjf8/s1600/20120211_170757.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjferWrvqLooW8y16XlZ3zHSa7LTnQYFXA7XkCTrRgjMeh9koTW8KwGVV601D8F_aPUV3Np9v9WloLBEddjI77CbqJ7x6AC9BdV6bS1UO3fTvtjyqcKlFEfOPPDzJ7qTH9WUlm0VbLSjf8/s320/20120211_170757.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Just for a bit of character I added a Night Lord and dead guardsman to the base.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Speaking of the base, i drilled a 2mm hole up the middle of the stand and then screwed the stand to the base. Maybe a bit unnessary but better safe than sorry!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">In hindsight i would have done this after making the base as i couldnt then spray under coat it.</div><br />

</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I present a couple of new units for you guys, I know ive been away from you for abit. Im sorry. Real life has been busy at the mo, but you cant stop the hobby!! Just slow it down a bit.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">First up, Ive finished a Rhino!! Its only taken me about a year to get round to finishing it. Ho hum.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibvIYQ-hym6RspM3dIocZOScYc7DkKE4DEZf9Qcun4AW25eDpglvcQnT8gtuRdNlyqRB2HK2gh0p0E7czrhd92cSJbEuP8p_vdgRHJFQsgeZSBdAdSkbiXNiqqo3p8aWa4GGjvBQFilUk/s1600/DSC00413.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibvIYQ-hym6RspM3dIocZOScYc7DkKE4DEZf9Qcun4AW25eDpglvcQnT8gtuRdNlyqRB2HK2gh0p0E7czrhd92cSJbEuP8p_vdgRHJFQsgeZSBdAdSkbiXNiqqo3p8aWa4GGjvBQFilUk/s320/DSC00413.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I think that despite the fact that Rhinos are not that exciting, if you stick a big symbol on the top they can look fantastic. This simple Tactical arrow was made using masking tape. First marking out a triangle at the top with Astronomican Grey and then a rectangle joining once the triangle was dry. Then thin layers of white were built up til I was happy.</span></div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Next Ive added 5 more Assault Marines to the 10 I have already. These were done to be added to either of the 5 man squads I already have, so there is no Sarg and the Special weapon has been magnetised for flexibility. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br />

</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I come bearing angels, mostly of the angry variety, some more angry than others, but I shall begin with a Lord of Angels.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQJuoi0gvcSSkx5Ckfxy_lVuahTy2Dfvm9hLJbXRO3epuXi1dGox_ijdLigq4al_MCkHv6BPDc4qwQbW2VgJZfYUkqjxjEi24aNBU8Z9X1kA2XZ8oJDVO-_qNPjfd8NdC4GB5AHT3m09A/s1600/DSC00361.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQJuoi0gvcSSkx5Ckfxy_lVuahTy2Dfvm9hLJbXRO3epuXi1dGox_ijdLigq4al_MCkHv6BPDc4qwQbW2VgJZfYUkqjxjEi24aNBU8Z9X1kA2XZ8oJDVO-_qNPjfd8NdC4GB5AHT3m09A/s320/DSC00361.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I say angels, I should be saying Flesh Tearers really. This is my Captain for my fledgling army. Im basing my force on the Flesh Tearers 1st Company, mainly because the company badge for them is a white skull which I like the look of and the way it matches in with the rest of the colour scheme for them. And I read somewhere that they dont have a dedicated Veteran Company as theres not enough of them!! They are organised more like space wolf great companies instead. Each of the 4 remaining companies with its own veterans and scouts.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">His left arm is from the Ultramarines captain, Right from a Terminator, Right pad from the chaos kit to match the left. Head from the deathwatch kit, chest and back from the commander kit and his Jump pack from the Death Company Kit, oh and legs off an Assault Marine!! The jump pack is magnetised so I can run him in a rhino if I want to instead.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">The base is weighted with a penny and he is reasonably stable, although im not entirely convinced he isnt slowly falling off. Still its been a few days so i might be imagining it!!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Now to get a bit more Angry!!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">You may remember my love for second edition. Well when I played many years ago, one of my favourite characters was Mephiston, and the Mini was awesome too. Well unfortunatly that awesome mini is now one of the few that I think havnt aged well. He is too small and too static in his pose for me. But his background and rules still are awsome. But he wouldnt fit in a Flesh Tearers army, oh what to do!?</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Then I saw the angry looking Librarian with the Force Axe in my codex and I knew what had to be done.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">When Librarians feel the rage!! A Death Company Librarian!! Mephistons stats and rules are pretty apt for a Lib in the grip of the Rage. So thats what I will prob run this guy as, a cheap option is to run him as a Lib and join the DC. Or I could even just take him as a DC with power wep and Plasma pistol if I really needed to.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Now speaking of Death Company, something I came to realise is that to run my Chap dread as DC Dread I needed 5 DC marines. Now when I built mine I bashed one about and made him a chaplain so I only had 4. OH NO!! So i dug around my bits box and came up with this chap to also join my DC.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">The DC were lacking a bit of heavy punch so he got given a power fist from the command sprue (I think) and since he wouldnt get a bonus for an extra CC weapon, but could rapid fire on the charge (since DC are relentless) I gave him a bolter too. Eagle eyed readers will notice that he is an old metal DC. Never throw anything away!!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">And since we are on the topic of Death Company, I thought it only fair to show of the rest of the gang.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">You'll remember a couple of weeks ago I painted up a five man squad of Sternguard, well now Ive completed the squad.

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The side sponson weapons have to share the cover that you see here with the wing on. This is easily swapped over as they were not glued on. I blue tacked them instead!! ha ha simple solutions. Bet you thought i was going to say magnets!!</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So the Main guns are magnetised to the front of the turret under the (not glued in place) weapon cover (bit with golden wings on) the rear ammo hoppers are magnetised to the back of the turret.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The top armour plate and rhino top hatch doors are not glued or magnetised as gravity does a good enough job here. (well done gravity!) Side sponsons and side doors are magnetised to the inner door using bits of sprue as spacers so the magnets can get contact. The side guns are not actually magnetised to the sponsons as they just click in and out of place easily anyway. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I love this tank, a bit of forward planning when constructing it and painting it as it was built has made the job so much easy and a good finish if I say so my self. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The paint job is typical of my Fleshteaers, a bright red spray with a couple of not carefully applied washes of purple give them a dark, dirty, been at war with out break. kinda feel to them. Which is how i see them. Brutal.</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I tried to go for a bit of a lighting effect inside, with the cabin lit up from the glow of the control pad. Its quite quick to do and since i could be taking it apart in front of people i didnt want a horrible naked interior ruining my pretty tank!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<br />
Here is a quick guide to painting the fleshtearer symbol, i dont claim to be the best painter but if it helps someone then job done!!<br />
<br />
I painted the wholeof the middle of the doors white, then used a terminator base to mask off an area and painted round it black<br />
<br />
Then i used a normal base to mask off what was going to be the round bit (pic1)<br />
<br />
Then i painted 4 black lines at the compass points, then 2 more between each point.<br />
<br />
Pint diagonal lines between the top of each line to the bottom of the previous one, make sure they all go one direction!!<br />
<br />
Making sure they are all going the right way, paint in the top half of the sections in the background colour. In this case balck.<br />
<br />
And you end up with the buzzsaw.<br />
Now mark out a up side down cross and use this as a reference point for the blood drop.<br />
<br />
Jobs a goodun!!!<br />
<br />
Now, i wonder if you can use these magnetised assault cannons on a razorback................the_qwertmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00908720384978347473noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9029770792978426685.post-53261931800686565912011-07-04T18:45:00.000+00:002011-07-04T18:45:09.020+00:00WIP No More!!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">After a couple of weeks grabbing painting time here and there ive finished mr Chaplain Dread. Otherwise known as Brother Dominius. Ive labored on about his weapons and magnetisations in previous posts so I shall just let you enjoy the photos.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">A pic angled so you can see his Seismic Hammer, to be honest im not completely happy with it. I tried to make it look like the <a href="http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Warhammer-40000/Space_Marines/Space-Marine-Dreadnoughts/MKIV-IRONCLAD-SEISMIC-HAMMER.html">Forgeworld one</a> cos i think the GW on looks weird but its not come off great. Ideally ill redo it and make it look a bit more actually hammery!!</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">And from the front. Whats that I hear you say, you thought it was gonna be non chapter specific and theres a dirty great yellow banner on top? Well, your correct, but we have no problems here at Win, only solutions...</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">And the solutions are normally MAGNETS!! I magnetised the banner base so that he could fit in with whatever army. And also so that my opponent would know if he was facing a Furioso like above.</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Just another quicky, played against Rob and his brand new Orks from <a href="http://daredwunzgofasta.blogspot.com/">Da red ones go fasta</a>.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The pic below shows my thin yellow line crumpling before his green and red tide on turn 3 i think. He eventually tabled me in turn 5 and won 10VP to 6VP. A brutal combat lasting for about 3 turns involving Lysander full tactiacal squad and 8 van guard against a warboss and loads of Nobz was the highlight, after fluffing 3 rounds of combat lysander got his act together and killed the warboss but by then the rest of the marines were dead and more orks and another warboss came up behind him. Squish. Oh lysanders dead, AGAIN!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">As I said last week im now working on a forgeworld Chaplain Dreaddy.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Now, I want to use this guy with both my Imperial Fists and Fleshtearers, so ive had to be a little bit creative with load out, construction and painting.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">The Vanilla Ironclad, which it will be in my fists, has one Powerfist and a Seismic Hammer, or if I want to use it as a Venerable then a heavy weapon. where as the Furioso or Death Company Dread have 2 Power Fists or Talons. How do we do this, Im sure you know the answer, MAGNETS!!! (I love em)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Now all the different dreads have the option to swap out the storm bolter for a heavy flamer, and i intend for this guy to spend a lot of time close to the enemy. Also all the dreads hve one Power Fist, so the weapon load out for the left arm was set. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Right arm is where all the mods have been made. The Ironclad, and Fleshtearers all come with a melta gun, but the venerable wouldnt. Som the right arm needed to be magnetised and the fist also needed to be set to receive either a fist or Seismic hammer.</div><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">My technique for these was</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">1. Astronomican Grey</div><div style="text-align: center;">2.

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I think I could have done it with out the first 2 levels, definitely with out the first one. But it is so important to let the layers dry completely between coats.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

We love em, right? Massive mobile fortresses rumbling across the battle field dishing out death from afar. Machine Spirit splitting lascannon fire and a squad of elites assaulting out from a 12" move. But ask your self this, when was the last time it paid for its own points cost? At 250pts its gotta do alot of damage, or at least aid attacks by other units and take some attention of your more squishy stuff.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I myself find my lascannon shots bouncing off stuff and my landy generally disappointing once its delivered its cargo. And 250 is an expensive delivery boy!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So, I figured it was time to come up with a plan and in good old fashioned style - Modify the Van.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">For just 10 points you can buy yourself a multimelta for your ride. 10points!! With a lascannon you still only have a 1 in 3 chance of glancing an enemy land raider, even if your standing next to the thing and its got its eyes closed!! Now with a multimelta, get within 12" and that's 2D6 pen, the average roll on 2d6 is 7, so your gonna penetrating on just an average roll!! Plus all the goodness of an AP1 weapon. Oh yeah.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Now being cheap, I needed to make do with the stuff I have. Im not going out and buying stuff if I dont need too!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So, here's what I used.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeHTJFPeUrRtmgUwL8ApyduT8kpF1Qjm_nK-ikddRDFq4-W2vk_Tw8u20EGazf8wFKGzYAEXDqFcetqi8IJ8d0Ct-vY57CT6-uPwwIXHqZRQrd_zD02o-UGxJLv0unxt1xcmvBosWUOwI/s1600/DSC00231.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeHTJFPeUrRtmgUwL8ApyduT8kpF1Qjm_nK-ikddRDFq4-W2vk_Tw8u20EGazf8wFKGzYAEXDqFcetqi8IJ8d0Ct-vY57CT6-uPwwIXHqZRQrd_zD02o-UGxJLv0unxt1xcmvBosWUOwI/s320/DSC00231.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> Cupola stuff left over from my Baal Pred, a body front from a tact squad that looked suitably Tech Marine like.

Sometimes I just like to paint something different and try out some new techniques and stuff so this time it was the turn of the Grey Knights as I was inspired by the Special character Mordrak. He has awesome rules and fluff and I think anyone playing Grey Knights should defianately give him and his ghosts a look.<br />
The main colour for the ghosts I used is GW Ice Blue with a few washes and dry brush here and there with Mordrak himself painted like a normal Grey Knight.<br />
<br />
Anyway thank you for reading my first post, hopefully ill be keeping this up to date at least weekly. Please do comments, any CC is appreciated.<br />
