White Scars Deathwatch Veteran Captain on Bike

My daughter drew this for me.

Putting the pedal to the metal on the IF. Just want them done at this point.

Finished all my start collecting slaves to darkness. They came out super well. Fully painted 1070 points

Armies on Parade 2020 entry finally together (as much as it is going to be) and in. It tells the story of the simultaneous Cult uprising across the surface of Hive World Novgorod. I was largely inspired by the amazing dioramas at Warhammer World which we got to visit pre-COVID in the summer of 2019. This one would have been a lot more fun to have in the store where people could pour over the details and see all of the little stories, but this is the hand we've been dealt this year.

Finally finished the Chaplain, Out Riding.

Land Speeder. Only the hottest new kits here!

I can finally call my to-this-point pure Custodes force, Talons of the Emperor! Sisters of Silence Prosecutor Squad

Finished the Captain, Lieutenant, and chaplain from the Indomitus box:

Here are some Space Marines, guarding their blades.

Finally got off my ass and did some hobbying. Gotta wait for daylight to prime his base (custom 3D printed!) But after that, he'll be good to go.

Battle Sanctum completed.

First model out of my Indomitus box finished. Great detail and lots of fun to paint -- I can't wait to see the upcoming multi-pose models!

I predict that the new edition will fix a lot of the imbalances of the current, the first half dozen new codices will be nicely balanced, and although the Internet hive-mind will figure out a couple quirks and niche exploits, things will be great... for two years. Then GW will start releasing codices that break many of the core assumptions written into the core rules and become far to powerful; GW will release several supplements that are poorly tested and rushed; the Internet hive-mind will figure out unintended combinations that totally skew the game... and three years after that we’ll

My Lightbox arrived today...

So this thread is to serve as a hobby log and chronicle for building an 8th legion force. A little background on why I'm doing this army. This army is a tribute to my friend, Thomas "Stitch" Moritz. He loved the fluff and look of the night lords and was an adamant fan. Sadly his life circumstances prevented him from completing his own army before his untimely death. So In his honor this army will be dedicated to him. Here's the first WIP picture of a demi squad. More to come.

Indomitus Captain done. Only three more models to go until my lockdown army is done.

Finished the Primaris Techmarine. Fun model.

Da Yellow Bitz - Snotlings! To celebrate the release of Blood Bowl Season 2, I wanted to build one of the new teams created as part of the new edition. And what could be better than the looney hijinks of Snotlings? Not only would this be a fun project for using Contrast paints, it also (conveniently) checks the box as a good excuse for exhuming more of those ancient models from my bitz box and finally slapping some paint on them. As it turns out, I've been a greenskin fan - and specifically a Snotling fan - long enough to have a substantial pile of old models from the various generations

Tortoise adventurers

Apologies if posting in the Discord and here is redundant, but I’ve already got so many posts in this thread, I can’t see abandoning it now.

I finally have some progress and photos of it - been working on a necromunda terrain project (as well as assembling but not painting plenty of models...) got slightly side tracked adding lights into the body of the platform section, but the whole unit is scaled up roughly 250% from the sector mechanicus stuff, and stands roughly 13” tall. I’ll probably be aiming to collaborate with someone for some 3d printed panels to fill in some details, but for now I’ve just been using random wire, rod and assorted plastic bits to fill in some detail on the interiors. hop

It is a Dwarf Thane with a shield oddly attached to it. The shield hand has been cut and reattached and the wings on the helm are cut off.

I’m running the marines from my Betrayal at Calth box as a counts as Red Corsairs force. I wanted to add a Sorcerer, and happened to have a spare Ahriman, too, so:

and on a different note here's some screamers 🙂

Finished a unit of Space Wolf Intercessors:

A change of pace. I'm going to paint my friend's Space Wolves army for him, and am very excited about the new project. Getting started with the Imperium's Best Doggos:

The Judiciar, coming to mete justice.

Some Space Marines, riding out.

Just finished my first squad of assault intercessors. Made lots of mistakes, but moving on to a Judiciar.

Finished the new Indomitus Captain last night!

Im running Thousand Sons & Tzeentch deamons these days. with Necrons on the horizon

Shotgun Scouts

Finished my Primaris Apothecary.

I never posted anything because I felt like the stuff was never finished. It actually still isn't quite done, but just going to weather a little more and add some barricades for better LOS block. Close enough to at least show some pictures.

As I've been saying for years, every time GW introduces a new product -- be it as major as a new edition or as minor as a redesigned paint brush cup -- the reactions are eerily predictable: 33% of the fan base will absolutely hate the new thing and declare the game RUINED FOREVER!!! 33% of the fan base will absolutely love the new thing and declare the game PERFECTED AT LAST!!! 34% of the fan base will say MEH. Realizing its an equal mix of good and bad like always, and carry on playing like always... and desperately wish the above two groups would shut up.
