Iron Warriors + Long Overdue Update

Greetings, hope a merry Christmas was had by all. It has been a shamefully long time since I updated here, but that's not to say I haven't been doing any hobbying! Been working on some Iron Warriors Chaos Space Marines, I've actually finished the army and hope to have pics of everything up soon but in the meantime here's some tasters.

 Helbrute!

Spawns!

Dark Apotheosis!

Critters in the Dark...

So I finished some more Skaven not long ago, this time it is the rest of my giant rats and packmasters. These shouldn't have taken me as long as they did (three weeks) but I've been getting distracted by all the BFG... anyway, here they are.

These will be spilt in into four rat darts in games, should prove a great irritant to my opponents!

Imperial Fleet Sighted...

Just finished what I would call the core of my BFG fleet. I present:

Mars Class Battlecruiser "Sanctor"

 Tyrant Class Cruiser "Dominus"

Gothic Class Cruiser "Judex"

Lunar Class Cruiser "Disceptator"

 Sword Class Frigates "The Arbiters"

Battlegroup Iudicium

This scheme was painted using the Waywatcher Green glaze over silver, and I'm enjoying the effect, but somehow feel my other scheme came out cleaner. Regardless, its a nice contrast, and I'm looking forward to trying my third and final scheme on the last of my fleet.

Voyages in grim dark deep space...

I've been a fan of Battlefleet Gothic for a long time, but only possessed a very small Imperial Fleet. So when I heard the (confirmed) rumours that GW was ending all support for their Specialist Games (except Bloodbowl) I quickly purchased all that I felt was missing from a true Imperial Fleet. Alas, I was too slow to get some important pieces (no Battleships for me :'( ), but I was still able to secure a handsome flotilla.

I've decided to split my fleet into three battle-groups, each with a different colour scheme. I present to you the first of them, my scout force!

My two Dauntless Class Light Cruisers, one with lance the other with torpedoes. I want to give them names that reflect how they are sister ships, but am drawing a blank for the moment.

The first of my Cobra Class Destroyer squadrons.

The complete Scout Force, primed and ready to gather some reconnaissance (and blow up some traitor scum while they are at it!).

The Hidden Blade...

Painted up the last of my very old models a few days ago. I wasn't sure what to do with him for the longest time, but I had the idea of making him an assassin who's hidden himself among my Stormvermin.

Up next, clan moulder delivers a shipment from your nightmares...

Stormvermin!

Its been a long time coming but I've finally made a significant addition to my Skaven horde. Tremble before my fighting Stormvermin!

And with my Warlord, BSB and attached weapon team:

Painting these guys was a tough slog (sooo much metal!) but at least now my Skaven leadership have a nice bunker in which to hide from from any other ambitious rats in my horde. Insurrection will not be tolerated!

Anyway, next I've got to paint either 4 rat ogres or some 40 slaves. I think I'll take a break for the next few days though before making a decision one way or the other.

Engineered Standards

More champions of Middenland, and the last Empire I'll be painting for a while.

Master Engineer ("That way fools! Shoot that way!")

Battle Standard Bearer

Steel Behemoth

This was a great model to paint, loads of fun and not nearly as fiddly as the doomwheel.

Heroes of Middenland

Hobby wise it seems I'm all over the place at the moment! Here are some pics:

 Warrior Priest of Ulric on foot.

 Mounted Warrior Priest of Ulric.

Battle Wizard of the College of Heavens.

So, three more old models done. Maybe this week I'll work on something sculpted in the last 10 years...

The hero Skavenblight deserves...

Been far too long since I posted, mainly due to me working on hobby projects that I don't feel are worthy of posting yet (been working on some speed painting with Chaos Space Marines), but I took a break to do this little fella and I'm pleased with the result. A very old (and cute!) assassin model. Enemy wizards/war machines beware!
