More Khorne!

Tonight I finished a unit of Flesh Hounds and Karanak the Flesh Hound champion.

I also finished the hero, Skulltaker.

Next up is a rather large unit of old-school metal Horrors.

TK . . . Done!

Finally finished the last of my Tomb Kings tonight. The last pieces were 4 Carrion.

Woo hoo! Done! Now if only they'll release a new army book. From rumours on Warseer, it looks like it won't happen till May at the earliest. Yippee. So next up is the first of my Deamon army and a group of Bloodletters.

This past week I received a pack of wee magnets from KJ Magnetics that I had ordered. Shipping was pretty quick, a mere 8 days from the US. The ones I got are 1/8" x 3/32" discs. I'm pretty impressed so far. I'm looking over at my metal file cabinet and Skulltaker, the Khorne hero, is walking up the side. Skulltaker is a rather hefty all metal foot mini. I'd definitely buy from these guys again. Check them out. KJ Magnetics: http://www.kjmagnetics.com/

An Update

Been a few weeks since I posted. I haven't got any painting done in the past week and a half. I'll hopefully get back on that today. Four Carrion to go and my TK are done. Looking forward to getting onto my Daemons.

Had my friend Chris over for some gaming last night. We played a game of Twilight Struggle and I (as the USA) got soundly trounced. I swear Chris went through the deck ahead of time and took out all the US cards. We also played a few games of CCA, and I was able to recoup some self esteem with a few victories. Hopefully this week should see the arrival of my copy of GMT's Labyrinth: The War on Terror.

A Whole Lot of Chariots

Tonight I finished the last of my Tomb King Chariots. I have to say I really, really hate painting chariots. They're a lot of effort for a unit that really isn't that good. The paint job on these is alright, I was just tired of looking at them.

You'll note the chariot on the far left has no crew. I did up an empty chariot in case I need a mount for a Tomb King/Prince.

I also finished up a group of 6 oil drum bases. I am in the near future planning on doing up some 15mm sci-fi. I'm just waiting to get in on some early Christmas sales maybe from the likes of GZG or Rebel Miniatures. So far I'm just accumulating terrain.

These are from JR Miniatures 15mm World War 2 Stalingrad line.

Up next I have the last of my Tomb King miniatures: a group of 4 Carrion. And after that: Daemons!

Last of the TK Foot Units

Tonight I finished the last of my Tomb King foot units. First up is a block of 20 skellie warriors:

A couple Tomb Guard (not sure why I had 2 that didn't get painted with the rest):

The foot and mounted version of the Army Standard Bearer, although I'll probably never use him as the Tomb King army banners aren't worth it and why waste character points on a 'meh' character.


And lastly is this character that could be a Liche Priest or a Tomb Prince/King. This fig isn't GW but is from Crocodile Games, Wargods of Aegyptus line. It is a Harbinger of Khanum. I figured it would make a suitable Tomb King figure.


Next up is a group (squadron?) of 6 chariots. And after that will be a unit of 4 Carrion and that will be the last of my Tomb Kings. Well, until the new book comes out and they have something cool worth getting like a Sphinx or something.

This past weekend I had some friends over and we played a couple games of Rio Grande's Antike:

Pretty simple game but pretty fun. We played with 4 players but I'd like to try it with 6 players.

Galatians

Finished 5 bases of Galatians/Celts last night. These are Warlord Games minis. These are the first 28mm I've used the 'magic dip' on. They turned out pretty decent. I've missed the odd highlight or two, but they decent for wargaming.


Next up is the last of my Tomb King foot units: a pile of skellie warriors, some characters and a couple tomb guard.
