Classic Dark Elf Morathi

In my continued bid to relive my youth and make a Warhammer Fantasy Battles army my 12 year old self would be happy with, I have painted up another Dark Elf. This time the classic 5th edition (?!?) model of Morathi. I am yet to obtain her model in which she is riding a dark Pegasus, but hopefully I will be able to get my mits on one.

Dark Elf Repeater Bolt Thrower

I was a bit gutted when Dark Elves were left out of the line up for the upcoming Old World release, but by all accounts, they will still get a “get you by” army list to use, so fingers crossed they may get some love at some point down the line.

With that in mind, I have decided to build up an army of the Druchii, starting with this Repeater Bolt Thrower.

I decided to put the crew on 25mm bases, as it looks better, and it seems to be the way they are taking the game. Which is great, as it means more pose ability for models going forward, and not trying to rank up models all in the exact same pose.

I do miss Warhammer Fantasy Battle, Age of Sigmar feels hollow in comparison, but that may just be nostalgia.

Word Bearers Possessed Chaos Space Marines

I have finished some Possessed Chaos Space marines for my Word Bearers. As with most of my projects of late, these have been done with an eye to gaming, so not so much a display piece, really intended for gaming. Especially now 10th edition is here!

Classic Archaon

I have painted up Archaon to act as a Chaos Lord to lead my Varanguard. The new Archaon model is cool and all that, but this model is peak Archaon. If I am honest, I think it was peak metal miniatures (for all their faults) and Warhammer Fantasy Battle.

Chaos Obliterators

I am back to painting half finished projects from the pile of  glory (shame). I have three Obliterators waiting to get done, but I thought I would get this fella done first, as he was built  and converted as one model, with no sub assemblies. It was a bit of a pain to get to all the nooks and crannies, but pretty happy with him!

The Emperor’s Champion

I painted the Emperor’s Champion a while ago, and just got round to taking some pictures of him!

Dark Commune

I have completed the Dark Commune to go alongside my Word Bearers. I wonder if the Thousand Sons will be able to use this unit in the future.

Tzaangors

I have completed the first 10 Tzaangors for my Thousand Sons/Disciples of Tzeentch armies!

Yet another bunch of models that have been sat base coated now complete!

Witch-King of Angmar

Just before Christmas (Christmas Eve to be exact) I managed to paint up the Witch-King of Angmar as a test scheme for another project. I have limited myself to greys and silvers, and wanted to see what the outcome would be.

Sadly, just as I was finishing this mini, the household came down with Papa Nurgle’s blessing, and the only person spared from his gifts was myself. So I didn’t have time to snap a pic or anything as I have been trying to look after everyone (badly) since he was complete!

Goff Rocka!

I always like painting the Christmas model GW brings out, even if this one doesn’t seem to be festive at all? So I added some snow to it, and there we go!
