Chirons p-log of miscellany

[bravey]

Haha, I know what it is like to never get any comments! Is the varnish archival? Because if it isnt, your figures will yellow over time.

[Chiron]

Its Vallejo Matte spray, specifically says doesnt use yellow on the can so should be ok

[Chiron]

Look what arrived today



Also waiting for a couple of Sentinels to arrive, the plan is to get my gaming group familiar with my infantry guard before springing a trap on them and rolling over them with heavy tanks and Platoon spam.

It'll be great

Leman Russ ready for painting





2 of them have Sponsons, stick on with magnets and reinforced by small pins that slot in to the side of the Russ.

Shortened Demolisher barrel on one and the others have Battlecannons

[bravey]

Nice! I really like the way they weapons are modular, I am trying to figure out how to do that on my Crisis suits.

[Rabid Bunny 666]

I've been busy with painting up some models for a friend the last few days, nothing fancy

In between I've painted up a Steam Tank and Gamezone general

This has to be the coolest scratch built steam tank i've seen, the sharp angles add well the the feel of it, it just looks brutal.

The Hydra is pretty sweet, if only for the sheer amount of dakka the Valhallans look good, they look like they've been through some fights, which is good, not too keen on parade ground levels on front line troops.

Sorry to disapoint but its actually a tank from Ironclad Miniatures all I've done was to stick some Empire parts to it

[Rabid Bunny 666]

Aah, thats not disappointing, thats more tempting, i'll definitely pick some up then.

[Chiron]

Completed the Russ tanks




Demolisher details

[Chiron]

My efforts towards making modular tanks continue, this is a wip of my newest Hydra





It actually look a lot better than my old one, I may have to rebuild that as a result.

Working on some unit fillers and Halberdiers thanks to 8th edition

[Dimitrios]

Empire and guard My armies of choice too..

Looking good mate! I wish i had your appetite for painting. I am infinatly slower and struggle for motivation! Hopefully your progress will push me to get my own done.

I am really liking your efforts in tring to make halberdiers out of militia. One suggestion.. might you want to try thicker rod for the weapon shafts? I know the GW ones are thick, but yours are also too thin i think.

I look forward to seeing them all ranked up and "horde-like"

[Chiron]

I've pretty much using the dregs of my bitz box for the militia/halberdiers, anything to try and dredge up enough to get up to 20 halberds together for Thurdsay games night. 8th has really shaken up my usual army list

In that vein, I'm currently waiting for a box of the Perry brothers Halberds/Archers and some Warlord Curiassers (Pistoliers are going to be amazing again, yay!)

[Daniel36]

You are quick! Cool stuff all around. I like the statue. Nice objective.

[Chiron]

Ok, those guys are painted up. I cant say I'm very proud of them but they do mean I have enough Halberdiers to run a unit now



I'm hoping that my new Pistoliers will turn out ok (Warlord Games Curiassiers)





And after those guys are done, it'll be time to go to work on the Perry models

[Gekiganger]

Wow, that stream tank looks awesomely industrial, fits right in with the imperial theme. Of course, the real reason I'm commenting is the Rincewind, a fantastic model!

[Chiron]

Warlord Curiassiers are finished, I've also managed to finish off a few more Valhallan weapon teams but cannae be arsed taking pictures of those, you've all seen my Valhallans before and they're much the same






Think I'll work on the Perry WotR figures next

[Chiron]

Modelzone opened up in the centre of Birmingham recently, I couldnt resist this Tank Destroyer (Su 100) as it was going cheap



I think it compares quite well with the Russ, good enough for a Vanquisher or similar

[bravey]

Hey, the curriasers look ace! The bases are especially good.

[Chiron]

Been a while since the last update but here are the WOTR figures
