Noserendas pursuits, "Horse" Artillery battery complete

[Noserenda]

Hehe thats the very one i stole the servo arm off :D I did consider a bionic eye, but didnt feel up to sculpting in the heat if im honest :D 

[Kordhal]

That Tech-marine conversion is so cool!

[Noserenda]

Thanks brother :D

Got the Hellblasters roughly finished, as always the camera multiplies sins! :D Will hopefully base them and the characters tomorrow, working on a way to make the eyes pop a bit more on these. Opinions? 

[deathspectersgt7]

Outstanding job on the Techmarine. 

[Noserenda]

Outstanding job on the Techmarine. 

Thanks brother :D 

 

Ive been procrastinating on basing and still not picked up my scout heads! But in the meantime i got tempted to pull one of these bad boys from my Iron Warriors to do pile...

The Relic Deredero synergises beautifully with a Captain and Hellblasters, the rerolls help my plasma not fry myself and i dish out an invulnerable save in return :)  Obviously an old  Space Crusade variant it really is a relic, and needs a bit of greenstuff to repair damage by eager but inept kids ;) 

[deathspectersgt7]

An Oldie but a Goodie.

[Noserenda]

An Oldie but a Goodie.

Definitely :D I do love a lot of the old designs of things, means more digging through the old boxes of childhood models and the big pot of dettol :D

Got the Techmarine paintjob pretty much finished :) Im hoping the colour mix makes his job obvious but also links him to his peers a lot more certainly than just a pad. Will get some more shots when i finish the basing which is mounting up! I really need to find my darn pin vice...

 

Ive also finished greenstuffing the Deredero, just need to let that bad boy dry. I also found an old Flying stand upgrady bobble from the old land speeders, so the storm should sit a bit higher and be able to wobble with a purpose lol

[Noserenda]

Mass basing done! Annoyingly the heavens have opened which was delayed undercoating the Dreadnought :/ I also apparently cocked up lighting these shots so sorry about that :(

The Completed Command Group prancing around :D

And the rear/banner shot, im pretty happy with everything bar the lettering, the Pharos symbol and heraldry seems to have come out nicely :D I still find horses strangely hard to draw!

19956306_10155404340965797_8706986145558438078_o 

And the Hellblasters! :D I did consider scorching some of their foliage before sanity asserted itself :D 

 

[Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch]

Techmarine looks amazing, almost like an official model!

 

I also like the skitarii heads on the storm.

 

I am curious what you plan to do with the scouts from the LSS, seeing as you left the scouts off of it. Separate unit?

[The Scythes]

Primaris Scythes - very cool. The techmarine is some great work and the group photos - top stuff :)

[Reyner]

The Techmarine looks awesome painted :D the whole force looks great together too.

Many thanks :D The Storm has been sat in my bits box a while, half the riders were used to make Alpha Legion Operatives probably and ive got one made up for the Scythes, just waiting off some Elysian heads for them! Im tempted to play with the one or two i have left though.

Thanks Brother! Especially coming from the Legendary Scythes :)

Thanks again mate :D Ill have to do a bigger group shot at some point, hopefully ill get a game in soonish :)

And because noone likes updates without pictures ( :P ) I got her undercoated and ive managed to get base colours down on the Deredero, just watching ink dry right now ;) 

[Noserenda]

19959159_10155408626665797_6311250170714545096_n 

Paintjob part done, well bar some touchups, ive chucked down the dirt on the base, just gonna let that dry before foliage :) 

[Jackalwolf]

My level of hatred is immense for people able to paint armies that fast and effectively. Great job!

Hehe :D To be fair i have a lot of spare time right now :D Thanks though!

Has the basing done! :D I actually finished late last night but been horrendously busy today (Ironic given my comment above...) planning IRL stuff :/ If im lucky my buddy who has the heads i need for scouts will be at a birthday shindig tomorrow night so im hoping to get some progress on them :) If not ill be painting my armour so thingsll be quiet for a bit!

[Bjorn Firewalker]

Impressive work on the Dreadnought. What weapons does he bear? Two seismic hammers and twin heavy bolters?

Hellfire Plasma Carronades :D Plasma got a face lift waaaaay back. Though i would like some Seismic hammers...

I went to do a group shot of the army so far, ran into an issue of no tablespace i can be bothered to clear so did a quick and dirty one in the cabinet :)

[Noserenda]

After a short break to return to paying work after some considerable time off ive been working on some vaguely related stuff whilst i wait for the rest of the Primaris stuff to release and me to get some cash together for it!

First Up i got a deal on some Custodes, missing some bits and no bases but a deal! :D 

Now i am indeed done with Heresy gaming until they sort the rules out but custodes work in 40k too and ill be basing them like my Scythes, hopefully they expand out the Raptors in 40k at some point! (Wanna buy some of their dreadnoughts!) 

20622154_10155499863325797_4967039630333574420_n 

Custodes Boss man :D 

20621282_10155499863425797_9087525837668413754_n 

One squad of Sword/Fist and Board dudes i got in the trade

20626251_10155499863575797_5484619533740100807_o 

And two squads of appropriately armed troops :) Gonna be painting these bad boys in the alt Black and gold scheme because all gold is... Bad, mostly i suspect due to association with bloody Sigmarines *spit* 

But im still mostly in a building mood ill admit and a friend is running a ZM campaign weekend soonish so im taking the chance to work on something ive been simmering away for a while... Ogryns!

Ogryns wip 

Specifically Charonite Ogryns, these subjects have previous been built as "Feral Ogryns" an oooold Wd option for IG that i built back when i was a total hobby butterfly (Staff discount is powerful for that...) so they have been stripped back a bit and are off to the Magi for some pipes and cutty things ;) 

[Noserenda]

Some More Ogryn progress  

Ive gotten the basic Chemical shunts implanted and cracked on with weaponry, though im really not sure on some of them... Hmm will see how i feel during the next stage of enhancement! This would mostly be Armour and sorting out the weapon implant fittings.

The Designated "Bonehead" has a more refined Chemical shunt and an "overseer" telepresence set mounted on his shoulder to allow remote command. Suggestions that the Rig is more sophisticated to stop the subject jiggling the camera skulls too much are ofc false

20746069_10155505610630797_8366827055474984186_o 

Also, bending Guitar wire at this length is the devil, no matter what i played around with technique wise! Next time longer pipes!

Edited August 10, 2017 by Noserenda

[Noserenda]

Got the basic Implants bedded in and started adding armour, including a crack at sculpting mail and armour plates. see how awfully that turns out i guess! :D

[deathspectersgt7]

Those are cool !!!!

[Noserenda]

Minimal progress on the Ogryns, as i seem to have lost my spare track link sprues somewhere and i was hoping to up armour them a bit with them!

In the lapse ive got a couple of batches of Custodes painted and part based :D

Warders of the Vaults of Rython represent! 

[deathspectersgt7]

Dang that was fast . I still have 10 of those bad boys to do they have been sitting on the paint table for 4 months.

Hehe, my Painting speed is solid when i can keep the focus! :) Its the focus thats the problem, just my immediate PIP box has: 

 

Half a squad of harlequins

A couple of Heresy Era Blood Angel officers

A Couple of squads of Eldar corsairs (Boooo Forgeworld Booooo!) 

A Squad of Fallen

Another Dozen Custodes

A Mechanicum Magos (Not the one previous featured!)

Jain Zar

A Couple of Squads of Storm Troopers/D99 

And a Battery of Imperial Auxilla Lascannons 

 

:D

 

So to add to that...

House Gevauden Sacristan and Protector Detail :D Being an Enginseer and Servitors and in theory the final part of my Solar Auxilla boarding force. Haywire is always handy and he enables some robot support which is always nice! Ive been considering stripping some old Servitors or picking some up off fleabay but found a sprue of Bretonian men at arms in the box with the Ogryn bits and inspiration struck!  I have Random techpriests for days, though this one needed some spot repairs!

 

Im considering adding some Skitarii backpacks too but they would mostly be sacrificed by current skitarii so im reluctant...

 

[Noserenda]

My cashflow plans for more Scythes have horrifically fallen apart but i have been working on stuff! Mostly some Oldhammer fantasy stuff as ive had a hankering for it but also some Guard bits and bobs and some Solar Auxilla types for a ZM campaign ive got coming up (ZM should cut out most of the dumb :cusse from 7th!). But for today? Horse Artillery!

21192250_10155573613960797_72059995987839657_n 
Battery set up to fire

Ive got 3 squads of Cold one rough riders on the bench waiting for paint but the Rapiers were an easy win for me, and the crew a good time filler between other stuff. Then i agonised over the skin colour of the Cold ones for aaaaages too :D I should credit Digit's Drogans and Apologists Lambs world armies from which i gave liberally cribbed over the years because they are gorgeous (Seriously, go google them!).

In particular the "Horse" Artillery was my main Heavy support for what i hope to be a significant Rough Rider army some day, i love rough riders and watching an army of them (Built from Kislev winged lancers) play at an old Tempus fugitives event was a great inspiration for me!


21248414_10155573613875797_373544901497146788_o 
Guns hitched up and rolling.

Anyhow, i had to do a lot of sculpting on the cold ones here, and it aint great, though the worst is hidden by stowage ;)
