Monolith

I have received my first Monolith today. I have bought it from ebay second hand. It is painted in Gold as my army color is mithril silver-burnished gold it does not look odd. But the paint has flaw on some corners and look bad. I guess I will repaint it when I find time from buying and building models.....

Necron Destroyers

I have received my new destroyers. I have a Destroyer fleet of;

- 2 Destoyer body Necron Lords (with magnets interchangable to destroyer)
- 7 Necron Detsroyers
- 2 Necron Heavy Destroyers (one of them converted from Necron Destroyer)

Nightbringer

I have finally received my Necron Nightbringer.I have spent 3 hours to built the model. TO make it solid I have used some staple bits and a 3 mm diameter metal rod.

Necron Progress

I have converted about 10 flayed ones from plastic warrior models and bought an additional 8 metal flayed ones.

I have 7 metal pariahs which seems to be excess, as they can not fit any of my army lists.

I have 4 destroyers and looking for more.

I have 3 Necron Lords one with Resurrection Orb and one with Destroyer body. I have built the destroyer body with magnets and I can interchange it in to a Necron Destroyer if I need.

I have about 80 warriors only 50 built. I will convert about 10 into Necron Immortals.

I have 12 scarab bases any of which I have not fielded yet.

Necrons

I have been building and painting a Necron army for my brother. As a result of his lack of interest I have taken over it and will be buying some more models to get it running at about 2500pts. I will use the funds from Ogre Army sale for my Necrons.

End of Ogre Army

My Ogre experiences started with 2 great wins but after 8 loses in row I have decided I am not a good Ogre player and sold my army to one of my friends from our local club.

I restarted Imperial Guards

After a long time I have restarted Imperial Guards. It was my first army and I did not finish it as there were more Warhammer Fantasy players than Warhammer 40K players. As there seems to be more active players and a new codex coming around May I have started collecting.

Target Change : 3000pts Ogre Kingdoms Army

Well after rescanning the models I have bought I have decided it would be wiser to change the target to 3000pts which will give me more variants in 2000pts games in modelwise.

My Gorgers

I have build my gorgers from Ogre Bulls as I do not like the original metal model. Thanks Ali for giving his spare Gorger heads.

Bruiser/Tyrant

And here is my Bruiser/Tyrant conversion from Ogre Bulls. Meanwhile you can see the progress is a little slow but I am also building other units (Bulls, Iron Guts and gnoblars(!)...) in the background.

Second Butcher

And this is my second butcher, which I will field as Slaughtermaster in higher points.

My First Butcher

I have decided to convert Ogre Bulls into Butchers as it will be a more cheaper solution. Here is my first butcher;





I have given this guy a bangstick which I made from bottom of banner pole and an Empire militia handgun.

Models and camouflage ?

When building models everybody can drop the parts down. The tiny parts as if they have camouflage easily get invisible on the carpet. If you are a model builder you have lost so many important and tiny parts to the carpet cleaning machine.

What to do to avoid this is;
- Build models in a room where we have no carpet or a light color carpet
- Lay a cloth under the table
- Search for your lost parts with your hands on floor before starting any kind of carpet cleaning machine.


Well just lost 2 of my bolter hands for assault squad and adding this entry to my blog....

I am starting a Black Templar Space Marine Army

At last I have chosen a chapter; Black Templars. Especially to have both scouts and space marines in the same troop choice have attracted me I can have bolters + shotguns or a 20 men close combat troop.

Meanwhile I have collected some transport and heavy support;
- 1 Land Raider (to be converted to Land Raider Crusader)
- 1 Predator Anhilator
- 4 Land Speeder Tornados
- 1 Rhino

Please leave your advices for Black Templars as comments. I especially need advices on use of Assault Squads and Land Speeders.

How to built both Empire Warmachines from the same box?

Whn you open the Empire Warmachine box you find two sprues which make either a cannon or a mortar and 3 crewmen. Finding extra crewmen is easy using free company box but what about building both warmachines ?

I have strated very simple I built the great cannon as instructed after than I examined the parts unused. What we have ? The mortar piece, the short support leg and some accessories.

From there on using sprues and evergreen sheets I have built the mortar. Will give instrution and photos at my site.

An HO Scale Town

I have been budy with my Warhammer armies and only dream about my HO Scale layout. I want to have a small town with a good station and a passenger station, there will be a container terminal and a small military base.

In town I want to have a supermarket (Migros), a auto dealer & auto rental, a gas station, a modern multi floor building as a technology company (web design, web hosting, hardware & software services), a small factory and a big farm near town as industry.

I want to have a 5-6 multi floor houses behind town to represent residential area and some villa style houses in front of them.

After so many buildings there will be no place for the railroad tracks :-))). Anyway back to my armies....

Empire vs Wood Elves

Well in our local Warhammer club there are a couple of Wood Elf players. As Wood Elves are a hit-run-make opponent crazy army I can not find a good way to beat them.

Last weekend I had a new try but again failed this time more of dices. I brought an Hellblaster Volley gun and a mortar, had a crossbowmen unit to outshot the glade warriors. For hand to hand combat I had a Knights unit with Captain(g), a swordsmen unit with a fire wizard, a spearmen unit with heavens wizard and handgunner&halberdier detachments.

Well anyway I lost the game, hope this week I can do better, anyone has suggestions for Empire army against Wood Elves ? ("Do not play" suggestions do not count.)
