Iron Warriors Raptors

Thought I would post some pictures of my Iron Warriors I just finished. 10 Havocs. I figure having jump packs during a siege could really be useful. But I did find out that it is really annoying to paint caution stripes on a curved surface. Well 60 more to go.

I thought I would give the squad a couple storm shields. It doesn't fit in the army list but I like the way they look.

Early Imperial Romans

I put together 30 Early Imperial Roman Legionnaires by Warlord Games. I was a little surprised how small they are (as you can see in the picture below) but the quality and detail was

very good. I was pretty impressed by how easy they are to get off the sprue. I didn't have to use any tools at all and they popped off the sprue without causing any damage to the pieces. I had enough parts to build 3 command models (centurion, signifier, and musician), 17 models with pilums, and 10 with gladius.

Rogue Trader Iron Warriors Terminators

Just finished some Rogue Trader terminators. Painted them as Iron Warriors. I went with a dark metallic color instead of the bright silver that is a common color for Iron Warriors. I actually prefer the old Rogue Trader terminators compared to the newer metal or plastic ones.

I decided to paint the warning stripes on the side of all of the shoulder pads to add some color to what really turns out to be a pretty monochrome color scheme. Makes them look a lot better without having to spend a lot of time doing it.

Below is the classic terminator sergeant with the correct arms. Probably my favorite terminator model.

The old school heavy flamer. Really cool looking. I decided to go with two of these in my squad. Not really the most effective weapon but I guess it would make sense for an army that is supposed to be all about laying siege to people.

Limited Edition Sergeant Centurius

I have had this minis for a while so I finally opened the blister and painted him. So here he is the man, the myth, the legend..... Legion of the Damned Sergeant Centurius.

March Update

Ok, so looking back on February it was a pretty good month. I finished an entire army of Chaos Space Marine Black Legion for Warhammer 40k. Not bad for 28 days. Over 2500 points of models and they look pretty good. No vehicles but pretty good.

I didn't finish the dreadnought because I still haven't ordered it from Forge World so I guess that is a pretty good reason why I didn't finish it.

I am looking forward to March but I will probably get almost no painting done this month. I have two term papers due. One on the 14th and one on the 21st so that will just about ruin the rest of the month for me. Gotta love grad school. Anyway probably will get some stuff done. Right now I have 14 terminators almost finished for my Black Legion so these will probably get done next week.

Black Legion Tactical Squad

My last tactical squad for the Black Legion. Comes with a Heavy Bolter and a Plasmagun.

Black Legion Raptors

10 Black Legion Raptors. All have the old Rogue Trader jump packs on. I had a bunch of these and did not really like how they looked on loyalist Space Marines so I decided to stick them on my Chaos Space Marines and I really like the look. I have never been a big fan of the Raptor models themselves so I decided to go with just normal Chaos Space Marine models for these. Just like the rest of my army they are all sporting the Black Legion shoulder pads from GW.

I like this guy just because he has a Raptor head so he looks a little different than the rest.
