Nearing Completion

Been busy painting and finishing conversions as well as adding two new models to the mix.  Liking how the new list plays as well, much more competitive than when I began.  Let me know what you think!

First up, the Warriors of Moustache - 3,000 pts of sexy.

The Swan Boat (Sorceress of Tzeentch on Disc of Tzeentch)

Gorebeast Chariot (forgot Warrior conversions in picture)

Shrine Master / Sorcerer Lord on War Shrine

Hellcannon Crew, from Lead Adventure's Bruegelburg line.

Ogres!  Grrrrr!

Tournament Season Starting

The Northwest Masters 2015 season just beginning to start and my New Year's resolution is to try and attend all the local events when I can.  First up is Sparkle Party Death Match 6 at Mox Boarding House, Bellevue on April 11th / 12th.  I've attended two of the previous Death Match's and they put on a top-notch event.  This is a great motivator to toughen up my list, make some new conversions I have in mind and finish painting what I have.  Stay tuned.

Conversion - Warriors w/ Halberds

Rather than buying the GW Chaos Warrior Halberd arms, I opted for some simple (and cheaper) conversions using Lead Adventure's halberds.  They come sixteen to a blister and, while the metal is a little soft, the smooth shafts work well for this weapon swap.  After clipping off the hand weapon, I drilled a hole through the middle of each warrior's fist, snipped off the little bit at the bottom of he halberd and slid it right through.  Str 5 here we come.

They're not as imposing as the GW ones, but also not as chaosy.  I like the different selection of heads and think they work nicely.  Need some inking and highlighting to finish the job.

January Update

Bit divided - with the rumors of 9th Ed flying about, I'm hesitant about making any more purchases as I don't want anything to suddenly become obsolete.  Also kinda interested in what's happening as it might allow my list more toys...   Been preparing for the 2015 tournament season here in the NW by painting again.  Mostly just starting on the bases and finishing other pieces.  My "standard" list is pretty weak on the power side, especially with me at the helm so I'm trying to get more games in and toughen them up a bit.  Already bought some halberds for the warriors that I hope can be swapped out.  Will need to chop off their handweapons and drill a hole for the shaft - easier said than done.

Here's some updated pics - painted some gold on the Hellcannon, based the Skull Crushers and Warhounds and added the railing to the Warshrine.  Changed some red things to blue too.
