A Modern(ish) take on Ash Wastes Nomads...

This is yet another small project that got out of hand, this time I had an idea to make a model to represent an Ash Waste Nomad, but in the end I created a full warband for use in Port Imperiale or Necromunda:

Altheim Part 9: The Old Garden of Morr

Next up in the Altheim project is the old Garden of Morr:

The Mystical Land of Araby, a guide to suitable models.

This post is a bit of a departure for me, as I really only use the blog to post up models I've painted and the associated scenery and fluff to go with it. 

However, after receiving an Araby wizard as a gift, (and finding some saracens in the leadpile I forgot I owned!) I recently decided to paint up a small Araby army.

Anyway, this is what I've got so far (as the Saracens are in the paint stripper at the moment):

It's not much, is it! Anyway, I've been searching out old models and new ranges that would suit such a force. Because it actually took quite a bit of work to find ranges of models that matched up with the old Citadel ranges, I thought I'd put up a guide to help anyone else who wanted to do the same, as well as a bit of background of Araby itself. 

All of that and more (lots, lots more. Believe me it's huge!), after the cut...

The Angry Brigade and their Spaceship, Bakunin

Time for another stupidly large spacehip! This time it's the 'Bakunin', and Port Imperiale's very own Anarchopunk Space Pirates, the Angry Brigade: 

More photos and details after the cut, as usual...

WFB3 Chaos Dwarf Ally Contingent - Finished!

Well, this is a bit of a diversion! I'd not planned to actually do this, but while working through my Chaos Warband project I realised I had (almost) enough Chaos Dwarves in the leadpile to make an official ally contingent for 3rd Edition WFB, and here it is: 

As usual, more photos after the cut...

Citadel C29 Plague Elemental

Another little (or not so little!) chaos-based palette cleanser in amongst all the Altheim work, this is a model I've had in the leadpile for about 20 years now! 

As usual, more photos after the cut...

Altheim Part 8: We are the Road Crew! (and the roads are finished!)

As I've spent the last few weeks on my own, working on the roads, I thought it'd be nice to have a bit of help, so with that in mind I've painted up a road crew to give me a hand:

The crew, preparing to dig up the market square. Unimpressed Watchman at left.
