Pre Heresy Word Bearers Stuff



I finished this master up last night, and given the results of my past green stuff efforts, I'm happy with this. I've never been very good with green stuff, but I think I've got a reasonable icon that shows a flame springing from the pages of a book. This is the icon that the Word Bearers Legion sported before they turned traitor.

I used a Chaos Space Marine plastic pad for the base, since it's got rivets and more of a "pre heresy look". I trimmed off the bottom "spike" of plastic, and left the other one in place for variety.

So, I'll try casting a few of these up and painting one up as a test model. In the meantime, it's more work on them as well as my loathsome goat men!

A Facelift and Beastmen Coming

After finishing some 15mm projects of late, I spent last weekend working on a new look for my blog that I'm a lot happier with. Along with the facelift, I've got some new hobby content enroute. Stay tuned- first sample of "da new stuff" should be up by this weekend.

In the meantime, I've started working on Beastmen. Yes, another project. What can I say- just like everyone else I like new stuff ha ha ha...

Busy Hobby Weekend




Good times for sure!

Yesterday, I ran Legio Malaysia's THIRD annual "Big November 40K Tournament", aka "Ghemehaal in Flames". While only 12 players competed, the crowd we got and the fun that was had made it one of the best tournaments I've been a part of. It was a hoot, and Joe Soon and his Chaos Daemons won the day in convincing fashion. Well done, dude.

Tonight, I finished up another "secret project" with the Lend Lease M4 76mm Sherman (pictured above). One project to go! Once that's done, it's time to switch gears, blog a whole lot more, and get some 28mm scale stuff done.

Loathsome goat-men, anyone...?

SU-100 Finished



Believe it or not, I actually have been hobbying lately :) Above is another completed project, a Soviet SU-100. Pretty cool I think, and dead simple to paint truth be told. I'm pleased with the natural look of the log in particular.

Yesterday my first batch of Beastmen arrived, so I guess it's time to start dabbling with Warhammer and Minwax...
