Lazy Git Wargaming

Hey folks, again it's been a while since my last post. That being said they should be increasing in frequency as I've finally pulled my finger out and started painting this stuff. Anyway, here's the first lot of painted models, my 3 Foetid Bloat Drones armed with Plaguespitters. Foetid Bloat Drones

Hey folks, long time since my last update but I haven't been entirely idle. Right now I'm about 95% done building my new Forge World Leviathan Dreadnought, and I'm also just about finished with a pair of Predators, with some minor detailing to do before I paint. Here's the Leviathan: Hellforged Leviathan Dreadnought As you can see I've gone for a butcher cannon array and grav-flux bombard, though everything is magnetized so I can swap arms around. At time of posting I need to blend the spikes in a bit better (probably using liquid green stuff) and I also need to add a converted head. For the head I'll probably try and make something a little like Typhus - with the slit visor and horn coming out of the centre. As for the two Predators, I wanted to do something a little different. I had the kernel of an idea when I saw complete sets of metal parts on Ebay for the old metal & plastic  Predator Destructor , sometimes known as the Mkiiic pattern. Aft...

Hey folks, time for another update. I recently finished kit-bashing two Chaos Decimators for the Death Guard. I've been wanting to include a couple of these since the release of Forge World's Imperial Armour - Index: Forces of Chaos. That being said I am not a HUGE fan of the Forge World model, but more importantly I also wanted something more in keeping with the aesthetic of the new Death Guard releases. So, with that in mind I have converted these using the Foetid Bloat Drone for the torso and have mounted that on top of the leg assembly of the Adeptus Mechanicus Onager Dunecrawler. Front View I also took the step of trimming away the existing tentacles that were hanging from the front and added some of my own using green stuff and / or poseable wrapped wire from Zinge Industries . Further parts from the Dunecrawler (power pack etc) were added for decoration. The weapon arms are made from the seismic hammer arms from Ironclad Dreadnoughts with the shoulde...

So it's been a few months since I last posted. In that time we've seen the release of Warhammer 40k 8th edtion, and more importantly the release of the fantastic Dark Imperium starter set. After doing swaps with a couple of friends I have manage to amass three sets of the Death Guard miniatures and recently got around to building, basing and base-coating all of the marines, drones and characters, along with my converted terminators. All of the models have been base-coated with GW's Death Guard green spray. The bases I'll be painting separately, hence everything's stuck on with blu-tack for the time being.

Some of you may have noticed that in addition to some of my mari...

Not too much to say about these apart from that I plan on doing these in various sizes for the entirety of the army. Made up from  aluminium mesh,styrene tubes, strips, H-columns and rods, styrene sheet and 1/100 scale tread-plate.

Hey folks, as promised here are my converted squad of Death Guard Terminators.  They're made largely from parts from both the plastic Cataphractii and Tartaros terminator sets, and also the wonderful Putrid Blightkings . Add to this a liberal dose of green stuff (tentacles were made using the roll maker from GreenStuffWorld ). Apologies in advance for the photo quality, still need to build myself a proper lightbox Here's the full squad: And the individual squad members: And there you have it.  Next post I'll be showcasing some of my scratch-built industrial bases for these guys.
