Death Guard: Terrax Assault Drill

Legends or fully part of the Death Guard army? Time will show. Finally managed to finish this lovely model. As usual in the end I felt I just had to finish this one before being 100 percent happy. Looking forward to trying it out on the battlefield, but as we all know, it will probably be transfered to a part of a CSM detachment.

Really liked the old rules. The updated datacard is not worse, maybe even better. A shame that the drill is only Legends for Death Guard now, but maybe I can find a way to sqeeze it in.

Ultramarines Terminator Squad

It has taken me ages to complete these models... I equipped them with complimentary weapons to my existing models, two with Cyclone Missile Launcher, one with Assault Cannon, one standard Sergeant with Power Sword and Storm bolter, and two with Power Fists and Storm bolters.

I can now field 2 X 10 Terminators with a variety of weapons (2 with Heavy Flamers, 2 with Assault Cannons and 2 with Cyclone Missile Launchers). All "standard" Terminators are now finished. Only 5 models left to complete, and my 1st Company will be completed. But before I continue, I will treat myself with a couple of terrain projects.

Ultramarines Terminator Assault Squad

My quest for finishing the 1. company continues. This time a unit of 5 Assault Terminators with Lightning Claws. I can now field 2 X 10 Assault Terminators, 10 with Storm Shield and Thunder Hammers and 10 with Lightning Claws.

Puh – finished with all the Assault Terminators for this project, 11 more Terminators to go...

Ultramarines Company Veterans (and Sgt upgrades)

In my quest for finishing the 1. company, for variety, I decided to make two of my veterans into «company veterans», giving them Storm bolters and Storm shields.

While I was at it, I also decided to re-arm some of my 2. company Sgt (I have built Sgt so I can field them with several weapon options), with Storm bolters and Chain swords. I am starting to run short of bits (happy to say so now that I am getting closer to finishing my project).

Only 16 veterans to in my quest for the 1. company…

Ultramarines Devastators

After a couple of months painting white, gold and cloth, it was time to focus on models that I find a bit easier to paint.   Since day one I have always loved the Devastator Squads. To me, they portray the essence of the fire power Marines can field. I am a bit of a nutt-case. I already have 3 Devastator Squads, but often find myself “borrowing” heavy weapons from my Tactical Squads to arm them in the way I want to field them. That means that the squad markings are not correct, and that is a real problem… Hence, it was time to rectify that problem!
To me there is nothing more iconic than Heavy Bolters, so I built and painted 4 of them.

While I was at it, I also built and painted two models with Plasma Cannons, so I can field 4 of them with correct unit markings.

Finally, I built and painted two models with Las cannons, so I can field 4 of them with correct unit markings.

What next? I have to return to the remaining 18 models I need to complete my 1. Company. Wish me luck, the remaining models will take a lot of effort given my limited skills.

Ultramarines Sternguard Veterans

A new unit finally finished in my quest for finishing the 1. Company. This time, a new unit of Sternguard Veterans, and this time armed with Storm bolters.

The Sgt was also given a Chainsword

So, what is next? I need to paint something that does not have a lot of white!

Ultramarines HQ units with jump packs

I found it proper to field some HQ units with jump packs alongside my Vanguard veterans. I already have an old metal Chaplain model with jump pack, so I decided to go for a “Smash captain” (my take on it anyway – using relics), a Librarian and a Lieutenant. They are all in some way “kit bashed”. Great fun.

Ultramarines Vanguard veterans

Expanding and adapting the 1. Company, I decided to rearm some of my old metal Vanguard veterans, giving them some Storm shields and a Thunderhammer.

Next was to add a Veteran Sgt. and a Vanguard veteran with a Thunder hammer.

Going for the whole of the first company, I felt compelled to add a whole unit of Vanguard veterans with jump packs. Beautiful models, but they took a long time to build and paint. But in the end, I am happy having chosen them. This is how they turned out

Ultramarines Scouts

My last post on my Ultramarines army was back in February 2018. During the summer of 2018 I bought and built the remaining models that would forfill my goal of also be able to field the whole of the 1. Company alongside my “finished” 2. Company. An extensive project… I also decided to add a couple of other units / models that would compliment my UM army as a whole.

First out, a unit of Scouts.

Drukhari - Dark Eldar -Wracks

It has been a while since my last post, but that does not mean I have not been productive...

It was time to add Wrack units to my DE Coven army. These models was great fun to build and paint! Lovely models. My Coven models have a slightly more pale skinn then the rest of my DE force, I guess it is all the stuff that the Heamonculus inject them with... And since they are constantly altered, it is only propper to add som blood showing they are under constantly "improvement".


Well, this is how they turned out

The whole batch
