Calas Typhon - First Captain of the Death Guard

Next in the series of my HO Ho Heresy entries is Calas Typhon.

A particularly nasty character in the series, and this model perfectly reflects the menacing feel of him.

Angron - Primarch of the World Eaters

This was the first Primarch released by Forgeworld back in 2012. He shows the direction Forgeworld are going with these larger more characterful marines.

Gary. Gary - Hand of the Sigilitte

So yeah, FW went and released Garro.

Love the model and loved it so much I thought I'd subtly hint to the wife that he might make a nice crimbo present........

"Gary? Who's Gary from Forgeworld? What are you on about?"

So no.....that didn't work! Then I realised he wasn't tied to any particular legion so figured I'd start my own small HO HO HO Heresy project and kick my 30k army off with him! Hurray!


This is the first of the heresy character series that I've actually had my hands on and I'm really blown away by the cast, absolutely beautiful mini to put together, can't wait to attack him with a brush.........

But unfortunate he must wait a while as I've a small AOS based commission required by Jan!

Here's some pics of the first mini completed.


Will try and sneak time on Gary and see if I can't finish him also :)

Ho Ho Ho Heresy - Alpha Legion

I'm an odd one.....no really. I love Space marines and the Heresy Stories, but oddly I don't like the older marks of armour. Due to this I have not bought any of the Heresy legions. I am a big fan of the Character series of models but I don't think my painting is up to scratch to paint these great, and expensive models (it is the same reason I have not delved in to the new Age of Sigma stuff either).

My brother however has got great painting skills (I got the looks...) and likes to paint these great models. So I have been buying them and sending them to him for painting.This first post is a little taster of what he can do.

His (and mine) favourite legion is the Alpha Legion. We both think they are not "chaos marines" in the normal sense but more like normal marines.

First up is a Contemptor Dread.












Next up is the Forgeworld open day Model








This is the first of a few posts of his heresy models. Come back for more later.
