Dark Eldar Hellions

Dark Eldar Hellions

I dusted off my Dark Eldar  last night and painted up some of my Hellions that have been sitting in their case since I got them when they were released. I was reminded of how much I love the Dark Eldar models and they are going to be one of my hobby projects over the next several weeks. I have bought a ton of Secret Weapon Miniatures Alien Temple bases to rebase my entire army. They seem like they were built just for the Dark Eldar and are perfect for representing the bloodstained streets of Commorragh. They should be getting here next week. Until then, I have seven more Hellions and the Baron to paint.

A Brief Break from Painting White

Well, I knew it would happen at some point when I started building my Death Guard. I am tired of painting white. While building my Legion Destroyer Squad I found myself fiddling with any and every other mini project on my desk. I am taking a brief break from the Death Guard to work on some black undercoat projects, my Dark Eldar and Warriors of Chaos!

It has been a very busy holiday complete with a flood at my old house, a last second trip to Chicago and a move! Oh, and I also somehow found the time to finish up these two bad boys.

Horus Heresy Tactica: Legion Assault Squad

As part of exploring the armies of the 31^st Millennium I would to provide the community with articles of how to best use (at least in my humble opinion) the squads of the Space Marine Legion Army List. Over the next several months I hope to cover all of the units in the Horus Heresy: Betrayal army lists. Check back for regular updates! We continue today with a look at the next entry in the troops section of the FOC, the Legion Assault Squad.

Horus Heresy Tactica: Legion Tactical Squad

As part of exploring the armies of the 31^st Millennium I would to provide the community with articles of how to best use (at least in my humble opinion) the squads of the Space Marine Legion Army List. Over the next several months I hope to cover all of the units in the Horus Heresy: Betrayal army lists. Check back for regular updates! Lets start with one of the basic units in list, the Legion Tactical Squad.

The Death Guard

"For Terra and Mortarion!" Pre-heresy Death Guard Warcry

The first Space Marine Legion army that I will be building is the Death Guard. I had initially planned on doing the Emperor's Children but to make a long story short I got a little to excited on the release of Horus Heresy: Betrayal and bought way to many models and I don't want to get board painting one color. So Now I will be building two armies. I have split the lot of my models into a Death Guard force and an Emperor's Children force. I'll be starting with the Death Guard as they have decals and etched brass out right now from Forgeworld. I'll return to the Emperor's Children after they get decals and etched brass released.

Big things have small beginnings...

I have always loved the history of the Horus Heresy and Great Crusade. Ever since reading my first White Dwarf, US 267 and the short section it had dedicated to the history of the Horus Heresy and the Siege of Terra I have been hooked. For the last ten years have always wanted to build 31st Millennium Imperium forces. With the Forgeworld release of Horus Heresy Book One: Betrayal it will be getting the hobby attention it deserves. It will be an epic undertaking and I will be sharing my hobby and gaming experiences building and gaming in the 31st Millennium. Over time I hope to create a resource for 30k and 40k gamers to look to for both inspiration and entertainment.
