Dwarf High King

 Well, another model finished for my Dwarfs, the Dwarf High King Thorgrim. This model is from 4th edition and I remember hunting it down when I was suitably inspired my Hoodling's Hole post about his Thorgrim. Unlike Hoodling, I am not a great painter of banners and resigned myself to just print them.

I did keep the scheme in line with my Dwarf throng, with a few colour choices as a nod to the classic. Regrettably though, the banner poles had long been lost to the mists of time, so I had to make my own out of brass rod and 6th edition dwarf champion hammer bits. I think it looks okay though.

Anyways, a great model that has aged very well I think. I it was really nice painting dwarfs again.

I do realise the banners look a bit faded, however, that was the best the scan would come out as. Perhaps one day I will return to them, but I am happy to call it there for now and move on.

Thanks for looking!

A long trudge

 It has been an age since I have painted Dwarfs, but an impending game of the greatest of all games, Warhammer Fantasy Battle looms, and I just had to finish off a model that has been 70% done for many years. But Dwarfs are as patient and enduring like their mountain holds (the ones that are still theirs anyways).

So I finally finished this organ gun for my army. This now means I have 2 of each war machine and they are all different models. 

Glad to have it done. I have the Dwarf High King next on the table. Hoping that will be complete in less than 8 or 9 years.

Cheers!

Return to a little yellow

 I have lately been working on many little projects and terrain. I thought I would share some pictures of my latest additions to my Imperial Fists.

I mainly decided to work on these to use in games of Space Hulk with my boys, but they have also seen use in games of Crusade recently. In particular, the terminators were quite a surprise, just by being very resilient. They didn't kill much against Harlequins, however, in the games against my friends Necrons, they were easily unit of the match by killing essentially the whole necron army on their own. Just epic.

So without further ado, here are the terminators. I had to kit bash them from spare parts as I had bought lots of terminators long ago, but I have lost or used many of their parts over the years. As such their wargear is accurate, but bit of a mix up. The sergeant in particular is using some spare parts from the Templar Brethren from my 30k stuff.

Next is my captain in terminator armour. Again primarily for some options in Space Hulk, though is yet to make an appearance in Crusade games yet. Great model, with only a few minor tweaks. I think the head is Sigismund's from 30k and the shield is my usual thing. I have noticed a lot of the new Space Marine stuff tends to have these heraldric shields, which I have had on my force for a long time.

I do have some other updates on my Adeptus Sororitas and terrain to post, so hopefully I can do that sooner rather than later. 

Thanks for looking.
