Imperial Regiment the 19th Dicers - More Reinforcements WIP - Returning to the Cypra Incident

Morning All,

I have been busy preparing for my game with boss bludtoof and beyond that Skirmish 3 tournament with the 19th Dicers.  I cannot emphasise how much I love this army!  I have tried to recycle many models as part of this process also bringing old stuff back to life is quite satisfying after all.

For this game with Boss I needed to finish the Basilisk, Valkyrie and some additional infantry....  As it happened I didnt quite get there but here is some work in progress stuff and this post will be followed by some showcase posts of completed models.

WIP

Fire from the Skies!! Showcase.. Ork Burna Bommer......and another project sneaks into the queue. Picture heavy!

Hi All

Bluddtoof ere wiv gud nooz for youz boyz. Not so gud for dem Beakies tho!

I've finally finished my Burna Bommer so I'm  a bit closer to being ready for the next mission in The Cypra Incident; our narrative campaign, which has been on a bit of a hiatus recently due to life getting in the way for both Doc and myself.
I also wanted to get it done ready for my first delve into 8th which is happening in a couple of weeks with the code boys.

So here's a bunch of pics throughout the process, finished one first...

then from when I started back into it a month ago....

I'm pleased, looks good in the cabinets next to the rest of waagghhh!!!!!!!! Bluddtoof.

So then the plan was to jump back to the Imperial Knight, however with Doc mentioning getting ready for Cypra; I decided to revisit the plans we'd made for the next mission and start on the extra bits I'll need for that, namely; some Mek Gunz and a 3rd flyer for starters, then I need to make a bit of scenery for the airfield which will be the setting. So that'll be me busy for a while, I still plan to finish the knight before xmas though.

Here's some wip of the Mek gunz build, Doc donated the track sections from his Taurox and there's an extremely old metal gun carriage with what was either a Traktor kannon or Smasha gun from the 90's I think, either way it will find itself re purposed into a modern mek gun. My first model is my take on a bubble chukka, then I'll do 1 of each of the other types.

As ever C&C welcome.

Bluddtoof.

SVA round up

First here is a picture of my biker list:

i just completed it in time for SVA, despite being let down by online retailers i managed to paint up the 2 storm talon in a week

these performed really well over the weekend and i will look forward to using them in the future

here are some close ups of the bike captain (converted from a DV biker sarg), 3 typhoons (who i one turn of shooting took out 20 ork boyz!, a small unit of scouts and the 3rd bike squad.

i still have a few of the details to pick out on the models but over all they have a good cohesive feel about them.

over the course of the weekend HYPASPIST ghost was with us. a few years ago he had built 2 warhounds for his dark angels army. When moving to the wastes he was unable to take them with him so he donated them to me and REDMIST. mine got repainted in my chapters colours while the other has fallen to the empty whispers of Chaos.

here they are facing each other in battle.

it didn't end in a glorious way for either titan, both being wiped out by the end of the game.

i am on a bit of a break for the moment, but when i am back i will complete my bikes and plan for something new.......
