Happy New Year and the Obligatory Resolutions


First off Happy New year to everyone !! I hope it will be a better year for all of us.

So on to the resolutions, as you can tell from the picture above I think they are easy to make but hard to keep. How many of us have wanted to start new armies in January only to give up by March? I know I have wanted to keep my motivation going earlier this year and that was the main reason for starting this blog six months ago now.

This year I have a few things I want to pursue more :

Commissions - I sold off my Mephiston conversion earlier and I would like to open my self up to taking on commissions. So if you are interested let me know!!!

Terrain !!! I really love making terrain and this year I made a few nice pieces that I wanted to share in a tutorial but have done nothing about it.


Badab War Minotaurs - I put them on hold as I heard earlier in the year that Forge World were making some bits and so they did. I have some shoulder pads on order so when they arrive I will be starting off an army with a tactical squad.

Conversions / Kitbashes - I have a desire to build some more conversions / kitbashes and the Minotaurs have some cool Characters to start with and I want to do some more Blood Angels (my Aurelius Legion Chapter plays with Blood Angels Rules), a new Mephiston, Astotath and some Sanguinary Priests. If I have the time I want to try out a Primarch or two.


So that's my to do list for the first week in January :) see photo


 Hope you all have a great 2012

Blood Angels - Mephiston - MWC's Miniature Conversion Contest


Mephiston, the baddest , meanest dude out there!







Here is my entry to the contest.






The conversion / kit bash is as follows.

Robed Body Dark Angels. Grey Knights Medical Vials added to belt as well as Space Marine Grenades.

Arms and Shoulder pads are Blood Angels Sanguinary Guard. Sword arm hand cut and re positioned. Sword is Blood Angels Sanguinary Guard with the pommel guard cut off.

Cloak is from Warhammer Fantasy Dark Elves Corsairs, cut to fit and greenstuff  to cover gaps (mostly covered by back pack). The Psychic hood is also Dark Elf Corsair cut to fit and greenstuff filling.

The Back Pack is Blood Angels Death Company with the Iron Halo cut from the helmet of a Sanguinary Guard Marine and added on top.

The head is from a Warhammer Fantasy High Elf Mage with greenstuff for neck.




Enjoy and as usual any comments are welcome.

To the artist who did the Mephiston picture I used, its fantastic and I hope you don't mind me using it because I don't know who you are.
