Prophet of Luger on Kadim Chariot

With a new army book with some new options for my beloved big hats, I decided I wanted to have access to everything that was available for my never ending Infernal Dwarves army.

The option for a sorcerer on a daemon chariot gave me a chance to use a spare hellcannon crew member who in a former life was a slaver that was part of my warband based on the excellent Black Dwarf Mordheim list, to become a Prophet of Lugar on a Kadim Chariot.

Although I did not have a single spare beast to pull the chariot I did have some horses (previous GW chaos knight horses) that could be painted in a flame and armour manner to represent the Kadim.  The chariot comes from my tomb king collection and has a few GW marauder shields that I use for the rest of my army.

Banner poles have some horned skulls and the banners are reprints of the white dwarf presents chaos dwarfs book.

I have only used the model once and intend to try it a few more times as I like the idea of a mobile wizard with flaming attacks and an aegis save.

Great weapon Chaos Warriors of Sloth/Nurgle

A recent second hand purchase resulted in me obtaining a few extras of the old GW chaos warriors.

After a trip to the dettol bath and with the addition of the great weapons you can astonishingly still get in a blister from the evil empire, I painted the bros up.

These dudes use the same paint method as my previous Sloth/Nurgle Warriors.  They will bulk up the heavily converted great weapon wielding bros seen here and here.

Infernal Bastion construction

With the release of the awesome new Infernal Dwarves book for the 9th Age I decided to move the warriors of the dark gods to one side and start work on the new options for the big hats.

First up is the infernal bastion- a twisted construct to deliver the IDs to anyone foolish enough to think that hiding behind walls or defended obstacles will save you from the sins of zharr.  It’s 360 degrees shooting and magic arc will also make those pesky ambushers think again about coming out from hiding behind my line.

My bastion comes again from the 40k conquest periodical and uses two armoured containers and a heap of the spiky bits that came with the rhino.  The battering ram uses the alternative head from the old metal GW gorger.

Painting will be in my traditional colours of liche purple and hashut copper.
