Salamanders Pyroclasts

At long last, one of my most anticipated Horus Heresy units has been unveiled by Forge World. The Salamanders Pyroclasts are finally unleashed! Covered in details like drake scales and symbols of fire, the Pyroclasts embody their wrathful heritage and really fit the description you would expect. Really liking how this unit turned out overall. This is the first major Legion specific unit for the Salamanders in the Horus Heresy game so far, and i think they did a great job with them. More details below.

Even More Forge World Releases

Hey guys, just a bit of quick news this morning. Hot on the heels on the release of The Warmaster Horus, we now have an Iron hands Legion Iron Father, and some bits for making a Night Lords Terror Squad. Both releases are nice; the details on the Night Lords adding that really fear inducing visage that they go for, while the Iron Father looks as tough and implacable as one would expect. For more pictures on these new models, head on over to the links below to get a better look. :)

The Warmaster Cometh!

The time has finally come for the Warmaster, Horus Lupercal, to make his appearance on the tabletop. Currently available for preorder, this model is another stunningly detailed and imposing example of the Primarchs' capabilities. More beautiful pictures follow below.

More Armies on Parade Stuff!

Hey all!

Progress on my Armies on Parade Tau army.

Here is another commander, one with the support-signature systems, Iridium Armor, a Shield Generator, and Vectored Thrusters.




Still a bit more that needs to be done (specifically cleanup and gap-closings) but I'm pretty pleased with him. Might tilt the head down a bit more, but I'm gonna wait and see.

The next is a broadside!




This will probably be the only one of these I do for the time being, though I do have some missile-broadside ideas in mind (and worse comes worse, two more metal railguns).

More soon when I start painting!

New Legion Superheavy sighted!

Hey guys, I apologize for the long layoff, I have yet again been super swamped with work lately, but today i managed to find some interesting news regarding a new Forge World Superheavy in the works. The latest blog shows a teaser image of the model being worked on, likely before going to molding, and it looks like this could be an interesting one. Better pics and a few ideas below.....

Things I've Been Working On!

Sorry for the long absence, work has been killer! That said, I have been able to get some killer hobbying done!

I've mostly been working on my Armies on Parade board which got off to an interesting start! For starters, my local  GW had a contest for a single miniature that I got in on last minute, though it was convenient that I had been working on a Tau Commander that suited the requirements just fine, so....guess I am doing Tau for AoP!

Anywhoo, here is the commander, along with the coming Shas'vre that will be accompanying him (or maybe another Shas'o, haven't decided).




This was my first time at the OSL, and though I am pleased with much of it, I am not done just yet with some more finishing touches that need to be completed.

The following two images are very much based on the work of Resv from Advanced Tau Tactica Online, with some personalizations.







More soon!
