A free Saturday

The plan had been to do all this last Saturday. A stomach bug and 48 lost hours later and the weekend was over. Luckily Mer watched the kids so I could play catch up today.

Zombies for Sylvania Bowl:

The Green Knight for Brettonia Bowl
(Actually this is the second time I've painted this model. Fucking Armory matt sealer...)

Some of my Relictors, using the CSM codex:

Chaos Chosen Squad: 4 Plasma Guns, Standard of Chaos Undivided, and a regular dude.

I decided that since they have Infiltrate, I'd give them "silenced" weapons in the form of middle ages type melee weapons. Sure a giant club and and flail may not exactly be silenced be a) they're relatively quiet compared to a sword made of chainsaw and b) the assumption is that with power armor they can sneak up on people.


Chaos Warriors squad: 10 guys, Plasma Gun, Lascannon, and Icon of Tzeentch. The Icon is a captured Tzeentch demon which creates a magi-tek forcefield around each guy thanks to specially installed gear. (granting the 5+ Inv. save)

The captured demon is the Electrical Creation from the Malifaux line. Link

BBCS Stuff

Been working on the various minis that might show up in the Bloodbowl events should people roll things like "Werewolf" and "The Green Knight."

(No, no progress on the space marines. Part of me is considering not finishing and just sitting that event out.)

Below: weapons that could be thrown in during Thunder Bowl.

Mordheim Bowl warpstone potions and items that can be thrown in for Hashut (i.e. Chaos Dwarf) Bowl:

Sylvania Bowl werewolf and Mad Cap Mushrooms for Da Big Bowl:

A ton of new Relictors

Big long absence, I know. Been actually watching a lot of football and playing games on Sunday. It feels so right to play Bloodbowl while watching Nuffle. But I've actually managed to build some stuff:

My "Huron Blackheart" model:



Base body is Pedro Kantor, with all the Crimson Fists iconography filed off. The head is from the SM sprue (cybernetic body for the 5+ Inv save). The sword is a WFB Chaos Knight sword (power weapon + personal icon). The "Plasma Caster" is the heavy flamer built into the power fist.

The henchman with the tank is from the Scibor line, with the flame from the Malifaux line (I think it's actually called the Purifying Flame). The tank fuels both the plasma caster and the model's cybernetic body.


Chaos Sorcerer:

Body is Cypher with a WFB Chaos Knight weapon (his Force Weapon) & some space marine arms. The book is his personal icon. He's a (very) Radical Inquisitor who's responsible for all the bound demons.


Accompanying the Inquisitor is the possession squad, so called because it has the Possession Monkey Aspiring Champion (seen here). I decided at the last minute to buy the Dark Angel veterans squad to match the Inqusitor. Also, in theme, they all have spell books. The Icon of Nurgle is the big giant book. Spells of stasis and abjuration providing the +1 Toughness. So they're not nurgley, but just enchanted.

(and yes, I made little lengths of chain for each guy. Gluing chains 3-links long was a bitch.)


The Chosen squad will be up next.

. . .Bueller. . .

Is anybody reading this? The lack of comments (and jokes at my misfortune during my Dwarf Pirate escapade) is leading me to think not.

Greater Demon, Possession Monkey, and other stuff

This will be my Greater Demon. I know, in the current codex they can't fly, but I really liked the wings and so I figured they could be bound with the chains & spellbooks. The nice thing is that if in the future they do away with the nonsense structure of the Chaos codeciis, then this guy be a Greater Demon of Khorne or Tzeentch.



And here's the Possession Monkey for the Greater Demon: an Aspiring Champ with nothing else. Arms & head from the fantasy marauder line.

Familiar for my special character. I'm using the rules for Huron Blackheart, so this guy is the Hamadrya. This is the Enslaved Nephilim from Malifaux. Here is a painted picture.


Familiar for the Radical Inquisitor (aka Chaos Sorcerer) model. She's the Candy model from the Malifaux line. Painted pic here.



Odds & ends that I built. Slightly retooled my list allowed me to add another "Summoned Demon."

Bound Demons finished

First "Bound Demon"

For the Relictors. They'll be generic chaos demons, their Slaneeshi powers reduced by the Inquisitorial obedience helms & incantations of binding.

The bases are Secret Weapon Miniatures Ruined Temple bases: http://www.secretweaponminiatures.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3_22&products_id=78

They're a bit tall, you can see the lines on the base where he sculpted the ruined temple from green stuff right on top of a normal base. Plus they're straight bases, instead of with normal beveled, so they'd seem tall anyway.
