Nurgle Plague Zombie Test

Next on my painting list are 20 Plague Zombies. The models are from the Exodus Wars range. Any comments on the colour scheme?

Nurgle Group Shot

Another tray close to completion. Larger picture available if you click on the image. There is a bit of room left to add the Plague Tower and Contagion Engines. Unlike the Iron Warrior and Khorne tray this one might even have some spare room left over at the end.

Left column, front to back: Retinue with Rhinos, Plague Marines with Rhinos, Deathwheel and Decimator

Middle column, front to back: Terminator and Great Unclean One, Mortarion, Dreadnoughts and Chaos Hounds (rats), Havocs with Rhinos and Plaguebearer, Spawns and Rough Rider, Armoured Company with Land Raiders and Blight Drones.

Right Column, front to back: Mutant Coven with Altar and Big Mutants, Mutant Coven with Big Mutants, Plague Zombies, Plague Titan

All total this comes to 3952 points for the Deathguard (Black Legion list) and 1570 points for the lesser minions (Lost and the Damned). This counts the Daemons and Titan with the Deathguard, so this is basically a 3000 points list either way. Makes a decent dedicated Deathguard list too.

Khorne Followers Group Shot

People seem to like the group shot so here is another one.

Mighty Khorne’s Minions on a tray. Click on the pic to embiggen (is that a word?). Those empty spots are for a few more inbound Berzerkers (on the left) and a bunch of Land Transporters on the right (still needing to be converted). On the left are the World Eater and on the right their lesser followers from the Lost and the Damned.

The World Eaters come in at 4380 points including the (shared) Daemon pool (Black Legion list) while the minions come in at 3075 points (Lost and the Damned list). Some combination of the two forces can also make a fairly large World Eater force based on their dedicated fan list.

Left column, front to back: Terminators, Berzerker, Retinue with Rhinos and Daemon Prince, Defiler and Armoured Company with Land Raiders.

Middle left column, front to back: Bloodthirster, Dreadnoughts, Chaos Hounds, Juggernaughts, Flesh Hounds, Bloodletter, Greater Brass Scorpions and Lord of Battle, various Daemon Engines and Cannons of Khorne.

Middle right column 2, front to back: Bikers, Objective, Blood Slaughterer and more Daemon Engines

Right Column, front to back: Mutan Coven with Altar and Big Mutants, Mutant Coven with Big Mutants and Hell Hounds, Mutant Coven with Big Mutants, and even more Daemon Engines

Khorne has also provided a larger scale force, so here is a quick shot of my Warhammer 40k World Eater army of many years ago (early 2000’s). I am still planning to paint that Land Raider and the last two Biker (who am I kidding…).

Iron Warrior Group Shot

Click on the image to get a bigger version. This is a quick snap (with flash) into the miniature cabinet where the Iron Warrior and Iron Cult tray is full the to the rim. The only missing models are two Hell Talon bombers and two objectives. And there is barely enough room for those…

On the left we have the Iron Warriors with

Left column, front to back: Bike Squadron, Obliterators, Havocs with Rhinos, Retinue and Armoured Company of Predators.

Middle column, front to back: Two Forelorn Hope squads with Rhinos, Decimator, Havocs with Rhinos, Retinue with Rhinos, Defilers, Deathwheel, Hell Talons and Hell Blades.

In between the columns are  three Dreadnoughts and another Decimators. The empty hole is for the Iron Warrior Objective (finished but still in the varnishing booth)

On the right is the rusty Iron Cult with

Left column, front to back: Coven with Altar, Armoured Company with Leman Russ, Objective, two Hydras and two Artillery Squadrons of Basilisks

Right column, front to back: Two more Covens, each with Fire Support element and some Demolishers.

The Iron Warriors come in a 4415 points (Black Legion list), the Iron Cult at 2160 points (Lost and the Damned list).

Imperial Guard Leviathan & Stormhammer

More stuff from January: A mighty Leviathan and a slightly less mighty Stormhammer. These were the last Imperial Guard models on my desk. Another army completed (unless I find a Capitol Imperialis somewhere for a reasonable price…).

As always, larger images of both models can be found on the Imperial Guard page.

Iron Warrior Hell Blades

My camera is back in service so here are the pics of the last items from the January sprint: Two squadrons of Hell Blades. I followed my basic Iron Warrior paint scheme but gave the squadrons some light red and purple washes to distinguish them (similar to the Drop Pods). That aligns them with the red and purple Iron Warrior retinues.

Flames of War Log Bridge

This thing has been sitting on my painting desk for years and I finally found the energy to finish it. Just a basic log bridge for 15mm (maybe 10mm in a pinch).
