Been a while, but finally finished something else:


Plague Striders.


Built with Magnets so that all three weapon options can be fielded.


I've also started collating and writing the fluff for my armies, so I've been doing some research.  ;)

Thanks Scurv, I figure the hobby is creative, may as well go balls deep.

Just finished my Hovertank for my Plague army today:



Heavily modified 1/48 T-86[?], it became a hovertank when the track assembly looked like way too much work.

Is that a Kitech kit? I remember it being a pain to build... >:(

Zengdefu, one of those cheap Chinese recasts of better kits.

Ahh, it's the same brand just with a different name. Knowing the "source" material just makes your conversion look even better!

That big game you posted with your cultists looks like it was tons of fun.  What is the big green flyer?  Is that from Guardians of the Galaxy?

It's a "Rocket Racoon Spaceship" from the Guardians of the Galaxy toys with a few gubbins glued on.

For an AAR of my latest game, check out this thread:
http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=99588.0

Here are my pictures of the game, sorry about quality, the camera doesn't handle low light well.



















As I said, check out Ian's link, much better than mine.  :)

Saurian Astro-Rangers!


Surgically and technologically altered to wear the archaic "Exterminator" armour, these Saurians are perhaps the least subtle soldiers in the Galaxy, tearing down barricades in their path as their Powered-Claws rend flesh and armour.

Nice conversion work - what's the source for the skulls? Or do they already come like that?

So THIS is where that cool Plague army comes from! Really good painting and use of different model sources here. The multiple projects are all very nicely done, thanks for sharing!

Only the flier left to finish for the Saurains now:


Codename: Aqueous Ferret is the greatest secret agent in Saurian history (making him about 578th overall).

Couldn't resist the conversion once the idea popped into my head.

Finished a unit of Archoflagellants made from some Heroclix.


Probably not going to do much with them, just finished up the unit to sell.

Big news! I finished my version of the random Sigmarine conversion that everyone did a while back:



Just kidding! I finished my flier, the last unit in the Saurian army!



With the army now finished, I'll be getting a friend to do some professional army shots once I graduate in a few weeks, stay tuned!

Thanks Scurv! Always appreciate a compliment from another true auteur.  ;)


You've seen the Colonel before, but with Spider-Man finished, I have the two "officers" for my Plague army done. The Colonel serves as a 1st Gen Mutant and Spidey as Subject 901.


Also been fiddling with ideas for Asterian and Enforcer armies where my meager cash-flow allows. Blu-taked this guy together to see how he looks, I think he needs a pack of some description; thoughts, feedback?

Or maybe a Sashimono?
