Logan wing gains some firepower

So the construction continues. Not getting out to the garage too much... but I can't complain as it's a result of my daughter at the weekend as she's now started walking and some great TV series mid week on Netflix and other places.

Loganwing progress

Ok ok... So I was starting to paint and I spent around 4hrs on the one guy to date and all was going well, however the toe being dipped in got slightly more drenched and I've jumped straight in (as much as family time allows).

So rather than paint I've been working on the rest of the models and getting those right ready for painting.

I've been detailing with some brass etch and some fur details I've sculpted myself and some of it using a fur mold I got from Germany. So onto some pics for this update.
More after the jump.

Dipping my toes back in

Wow... 9 months on and I'm just starting to dip my toes back in with the hobby. Still not sure if it'll hold  or if it's going to be a flash in the pan.

I won't bore you with everything I've been up to rather just show you a wip pic of one of the wolf wing I started painting.

Space Wolf Terminator

Total 4hrs painting so far. I'm quite pleased with him so far, but I think the sculpt is helping the painting along.

C&C welcome as usual

WIP Rune Priest

Just to show I'm not completely inactive over here - though I have been due to my wonderful daughter.

Not much to say so I'll just post the pic and leave it there. Until the next time... Which could be in a few months.

Time to Talk Turkey - Army list!



So I've posted pics of Logan's new wolf wing, no it's time we sat round the table, grab a goblet of ale and talk turkey... What is this berk on about I here you all ask. The army list of course. First things first the image is from The emperor watches and used without permission. I'm such a bad lad!

Anyway enough of this rubbish here's the army list and those that know me and have played against my old wolf wing will know this is a different route for me:

HQ Units

Logan Grimnar - 275pts
All his usual jazz

Rune Priest - 150pts
TDA, Storm Bolter, Runic Weapon, Chooser of the Slain, wolf Tooth Necklace and saga of the beast slayer
Powers: Jaws of the World Wolf, Living Lightning



Elites

Dreadnought - 165pts
Multi melta, close combat weapon, heavy flamer, extra armour, drop pod

Dreadnought - 165pts
Multi melta, close combat weapon, heavy flamer, extra armour, drop pod

Troops

Wolf Guard Squad 1
1 Wolf Guard Terminator, Thunder Hammer, Storm Shield - 63pts
1 Wolf Guard Terminator, Storm Bolter, Power Weapon - 33 pts
1 Wolf Guard Terminator, Combi-Melta, Power Fist 48pts
1 Wolf Guard Terminator, Storm Bolter, Power Fist - 43pts
Drop pod 35pts
Total 222pts

Wolf guard squad 2
1 Wolf Guard Terminator, Cyclone Missile Launcher, Storm Bolter, Power Fist - 73pts
1 Wolf Guard Terminator, Storm Bolter, Power Weapon - 33pts
1 Wolf Guard Terminator, Storm Bolter, Chain Fist - 48pts
1 Wolf Guard Terminator, Storm Shield, Power Weapon - 48pts
1 Wolf Guard Terminator, Combi-Melta, Power Weapon - 38pts
Drop pod - 33pts
Total 275pts

Wolf guard squad 3
1 Wolf Guard Terminator, Assault Cannon, Power Fist - 73pts
1 Wolf Guard Terminator, Storm Bolter, Power Weapon - 33pts
1 Wolf Guard Terminator, Combi-Melta, Chain Fist - 53pts
1 Wolf Guard Terminator, Storm Shield, Power Weapon - 48pts
Drop pod - 35pts
Total 242pts

The aim is for Logan to join wolf guard squad 1 and the rune priest wolf guard squad 3 (hence only 4 in each squad).

I think the force is fairly strong for a Logan list which is inherently weak due to small numbers. I have a mix of anti tank and some anti infantry with the massed storm bolters.

Using the drop pod assault rules, I'd deploy Logan and the two dreads first on the first turn and try to land near enough to something that I might just be able to pop something nasty with the multi melts.

It's not a particularly competitive list, but I hope it fairs a little better than my last double land raider wolf wing list.

Logans Wing - progresses

So Logans Wolf Wing is progressing... very slowly albeit, but progress is progress.

I've been spending the last few weeks building these guys - they have progressed some what from these pictures but nothing majorly drastic. Once you scan through you will see that there are probably a few bits missing to make this a 1500pts list. I'll get some photos of all the models in there respective squads during this week.

Rather excitingly I also have two dreads to build as well :D

High Exemplar Kreos

High there

Just thought I'd post a picky to say I'm not dead.

I've spent the weekend building myself a soft box for photographing models. Made with an office filing box and tracing paper. I was really pleased with the result.

As for the model it's one I started painting quite awhile ago, but never finished. I made a few progressions with my painting whilst doing this.



C&C welcome

A New Year and a new me

So I'm back, however, not with a vengeance, I'm still not that driven...yet.

So after an eventful January with the birth of my first child, Florence Lily - she's a little cutie! However, she is managing to sap my sleep and energy from me. Not only has she brought me only the joy fatherhood can bring, she has made me put Battlefield 3 down long enough to remember I have another hobby.

My plan for 2012 was to see the 205th take to the skies once more as a fully completed army, however when I sat down to actual do that, I wasn't inspired. I've not fallen out of love with them, but I think I can do a better job of painting them now... especially if I take my time and not rush them.
