More WIP Kadim Incarcerates

With the beards finished it was time for some sculpted noses and some tusks.

Noses are from green stuff and the tusks are courtesy of the plastic dryads arms, hands etc.

Retro dude is looking ready for some more paint.

I will be getting the wings from the reaper demon wings set.

Kadim incarnates work in progress

After having my disciples of Lugar wiped out in two the the three recent games, I decided it was time I finished their bigger brothers the kadim incarnates. Miniatures come from some GW ogres and hats from Admiralty Miniatures .

Next I would take the plunge and attempt to sculpt my own curly beards. Thanks to this excellent guide on chaos dwarfs online this did not seem as complicated as I first thought.

First couple were a bit off so with some perseverance I am happy with how they eventually turned out.

I already had a painted unit filler who had his original facial hair - he is now finally ready to take his spot with the sons of Zharr due to his new beard.

Arabyonnians - Araby themed Kingdom of Equitaine army

In preparation for the upcoming visit to the stripping station please see in all of its black wash glory the Arabyonnians - Araby themed Kingdom of Equitaine army.

Prior to end times these bros used the Bretonnian army book and rules.

I played these dudes constantly during 7th edition and briefly in the early days of 8th.  The release of the Legion of Azgorh in that mighty tome, Tamurkhan, had me return to the plains of Zharr.

Now I plan on bringing these bros into 2019/20 but before I do here they are:

First up is a unit of Al Muktar’s Desert dogs with a reaper wizard on a black tree design camel along with a unit of black tree design from the warriors of Islam range.

Camel knights from black tree design warriors of Islam range with GW’s suliman the Saracen.

Flying carpets count as Pegasus knights with GW paymaster, griping beast riders, carpets and genie from reaper


Reliquary from GW with others from griping beast and Perry miniatures


Spearmen from black tree design warriors of Islam range.


Archers from black tree design warriors of Islam range.


War elephants - formerly used as transport for cavalry for theatrical purposes to represent the devastation of the Arabyonnian charge. Elephants from schleigh.

White Scars

After close to twenty years I have returned to the grim dark with the beginning of a white scars force.

I am using the contrast apothecary white colour for the armour and Vallejo bone white for the touch ups.

More to come.
