Sloth/Nurgle icon bearer




 Another 40k conquest dude enters the fantasy world.

Tried a bit of the oxide effect - gonna try this a bit more in the future.

Overall an easy conversion with a weapon swap and a little cutting off of a few more sci fi looking parts.

Heroes and Lords of Chaos Warriors of the Dark Gods

A couple of new heros/ lords of the dark gods.

First up is an old GW sorcerer with an oversized icon. Paint scheme is slaanesh/lust for the old world/ 9th Age.

He was going to be a dragon rider but the sculpt was a little too inflexible since he is old school metal.




Next is a kit bash Khorne/Wrath badass with paired weapons on a chaos knight plastic body with a head from an Avatars of War lord on foot. 

Great news is he fits great on old Galrauch.

Dr Doomsludge - Chaos Sorcerer

This is Dr Doomsludge - a mighty chaos sorcerer of Nugle/Sloth.

The miniature is from the 40k conquest periodical with the necessary conversions to make him more fantasy.

Wasteland Dragon Galrauch



In the last two years I have been trying to finish my lead (and in this case I mean lead) mountain of warriors of chaos and my beloved chaos/ infernal dwarfs.

With the curly beards done I have been concentrating on their northern cousins who similarly sold their soul (for rock and roll I am sure).

After a few false starts it was time for the mighty all metal version of Galrauch.  I am extremely happy with how it has turned out and am in the process of converting a rider for this mighty beast to terrorise the 9th Age and sometime in the future, a return to the Old World.

Marauders/ Barbarians Part 5

With the below six more spear bros my unit is now complete






Although the original plan was to get the unit up to 40 strong I have tapped out at 32.  Next up will be about the same number of great weapon barbarians that will require some minor conversions using the GW plastic flails.

Marauders/ Barbarians part 4


Another brief update of a couple more spear armed followers of the blood god.

The standard comes from the old plastic GW bloodletter kit.


Again I mixed up the skin colours and am happy with how these dudes fit in with the other bros.

9th Age game - Infernal Dwarves vs Vermin Swarm














 Cracker of a game with some awesome minis.

ID came away with a big win as the vermin line fell apart due to my bro having the worst dice luck I have seen for a while.

Marauders/Barbarians of the World Unite Part 3

More marauder/barbarians with spears.  This update has the champion and the musician and a couple more bros.



I followed the mix of skin colour I tried in the previous post that I think breaks up a large horde unit.

I also added some bigger rocks as painting brown bases constantly came across a little too plain for these dudes from the North.

Here they are with the rest of the painted dudes.




Although my original plan was to get to 40 man units I think I will settle on a 32 man unit as I am getting pretty bored and want to move on to great weapon marauders/ Barbarians next.

In the meantime here is a sneak peak of the next batch including the suitably oversized banner.

Marauders/ Barbarians of the World Unite

I decided to mix up the skin tones of the next batch of marauders/barbarians.

I used a couple of different shades of GW paints and am pretty happy with the result.

The thought behind the mix is my chaos warriors of the dark gods attract the biggest and baddest hombres from the old world/ the 9th Age who travel north in search of infamy.

I need to hit them with some dull coat due to the gloss and ash and then they will be ready for the battlefield.
