Crimson Guard: Khorne Lord Tomax

Crimson Guard Commander Tomax is the fist character for this army, besides special characters. He is my Khorne Lord and leader of the Crimson Guard. He leads from the front with his massive daemon weapon, leading the charge in the search for blood and skulls for Khorne!

Crimson Guard: Kharn the Betrayer!

This is the first model in a new Khorne army I am currently work on. The Crimson Guard is a new Warband I am building up for my chaos legions. A World Eaters warband made up of the followers of Khorne, so expect a lot of RED! I have changed the color of the army slightly from the traditional Red of the World Eaters with a bit of a metallic twist and some black to go with the power armor.

1st Alpha Legion Troop Squad

How about starting off the rebuilding with a new completed Alpha Legion squad! The 1st of my troop squads is finally finished and ready for deployment. These new troops will boost the warband with fresh blood! The squad is armed with melta special weapons, and is a basic chaos marine squad. The models are a mix of current models and bits. 1 down and 2 more squads to go!

Rebuilding The Anarchy's Heart!

Well it's been over a year since I last posted anything on this site. Having recently worked myself back into getting into the blog scene, I have returned to rebuild the Heart. I took a small step back into blogs with my imperial blog a few months ago, and now I am back to the original one that started it all. This one is my most involved of the two blogs I run, with more armies WIP on here then my other blog. With a new core edition of 40K recently released, along with new Chaos Marines and Daemons codecies already released for this new edition, and a new Nid Dex to be released in the next month or so, it was time to raise the Heart. In addition to my Alpha Legion, I am working on 2 new warbands for chaos, a Khorne\World Eaters and Iron Warriors warbands. I have finished a few units for the bands already and will be posting them here soon. No one ever expects the Alpha Legion.....so here we go! FOR THE EMPEROR!!! ;)

Enjoy! :)

30k Alpha Legion Great Crusade Infiltration Sniper Squad

Returning once again with a new Alpha Legion unit that I did for a club group project. This time we reach back to the Days of Ole when the Alpha Legion was taking part in the Great Crusade, I have put together a 5 man combat squad team of legionaries in the old Alpha Legion colors and logo. Since it's great crusade I thought anything went so instead of the usual codex marine heavy or assault weapons, I gave the squad a sniper rifle as its special weapon. Also the entire squad is armed to the teeth for rear enemy line long range infiltration. The theme of the squad is very much infiltrating, head hunting and causing chaos in the enemy's rear echelon. It was a challenge to free hand the alpha logo since I had never done it before, but once it was finished the whole squad came together real well. With the rumors of a new Chaos codex coming soon I might be returning to my Alpha roots sooner then later.....so be ready for the return of the Faithless!

Dark Eldar: Razorwing Fighter

One of the first things that appealed to me about this new codex was the new addition of Jet Fighters. A long time realm of Forge World, it was a surprise to see a true aerospace fighter in an army codex finally. I was sold and when the model came out and saw how cool it looked I was fired up to start this army finally. I started in this hobby build plastic jet model kits and I always like a good fighter in a game, hence my appeal to Aeronautica Imperialis. Now my Dark Eldar have some aerospace support to lead the speeder army into battle. This is only the wing man of the 2 fighter flight I plan on building for the army, the next one will be more detailed as they will be the flight leader.

Dark Eldar: Incubi

Along with Drazhar I put together a squad of Incubi for the army. I needed some more close combat nastiness that I could mount on a venom, and this unit was an effective choice. In addition I have only 4 Incubi, so if Drazhar needs a ride on a venom he can join them and make the unit even more choppy

Dark Eldar: Drazhar

Let me start off with a recently finished HQ choice, Drazhar! Simply put he is a super ninja crazy character for any DE Army. His rules appealed to me, and I wanted to have at least one good close combat unit in the game besides all the shooting and venom's. I have already used him a few games of the new Zone Mortalis expansion and he is just a lot of fun to see him ninja anyone in his way. While I already have an Archon for an HQ choice this character allows me to use an HQ who can hold his own alone in a battle.

The Dark Eldar Experiment (Part 4)

It's been a while since I posted anything about my Dark Eldar experiment but I haven't abandoned it just yet. In fact I have finished a few units in the last few months I plan to post pics of here. I now have a fully painted legal army and I'm working on a few more items in the future as well. So here is a little preview of what I have been up too with my new Dark Eldar army, The Starjammers!

Tyranids: Mawloc

I picked up the Mawloc kit on the day the new nid codex hit the shelves. I wanted to see what this new kit offered with the option to make a trygon, I was curious to see if it could hold up my already in hand Forge World Trygon kit, which I think is the best bug kit out there still. This kit sat for a while along with the army waiting for the day the fleet would form. Now I have taken the chance to build and paint it up as a test run for my FW kit to be painted in the future. I chose to go with the Mawloc of the 2 kit options since I already had a resin Trygon waiting. This kit was fairly simple to assemble and it was a lot of fun to paint. I'm looking forward to putting this monster on the table to burrow and assault all over the battlefield, and soon to be joined by a Trygon too!

Tyranids: Reinforcements from the Hive Fleet!

Reinforcements have arrived! This is my next wave of hormagaunts to join the swarm. A total of 23 more gaunts will join the swarm to assault enemy forces. These guys were extra gaunts I had laying around along with a few extras I had gotten in some trades that were in bad condition. After a little extra work on some of these bugs I got them up to speed and ready to join the others I had finished earlier this year. You can never have enough of these bugs to help in assaults.

Tyranids: Malanthrope

The Malanthrope is my third HQ addition to the swarm. A ForgeWorld model with some unique rules and background. The model is smaller then a Hive Tyrant, but it is taller then one. It's not really meant for front line duty, but it gives me an extra option when it comes to HQ choices. The new imperial armor apocalypse 2 book has new rules for this beast, but I haven't had a chance to check them out yet. It was fun, quick, and easy addition to the swarm.

The Return of Lord Axalon and his Necron Phalanx

It's funny that 2 years ago I made a post on this blog about my Necron forces and here we are 2 years later almost to that date, and guess what we have! WOO HOO! The Toasters are BACK!!!

Tyranids: Deathleaper

This is my first Nid Special Character model. The Deathleaper never caught my eye as much as the Red Terror did in the past, but when this bug became part of the regular codex I got one to try it out. So far he has seen action in one battle and died a brave bug to Tau Commander Farsight. I will have to keep trying him in other games when I have the space and points to deploy it. This bug will be the top bug of my new Lictor force now. It was a fun side paint project at least, maybe next time around they will bring back the Red Terror.....

Tyranids: Lictor Brood

Lictors are a great deep strike unit if you have some points to spare. I was lucky to score 2 of the special edition Lictors from the last army box set, when I got one in my army box I bought and then later on in a random buy online. I also have the standard lictor that is sold in the current line. I think this will be the limit of my lictor force for a good while. Sneaky Gitz!

Tyranids: Ravener Broods

Time to expand that new Fast Attack selection with another unit or 2. When I first got the last Tyranid army box set I got 3 Raveners in the set, which I didn't do much with at first. As I gathered more units I got 3 more raveners, but these were not complete. So I split the ones that were complete with all arms and made the others into a rending claw unit. So I was able to field 2 units of 3 raveners each. of course I've been told this is too small a unit, but I will have to give it a try when I can and see how they perform. I'm thinking of teaming these guys with the Trygon or Mawloc, sounds like fun!




The Slashers....




The Rending Crew....

Enjoy! :)

Tyranids:Venomthrope Brood

The Venomthrope was on my must have list of new bugs to get once I had finished enough units to make him worth taking. Well lucky for me I waited long enough that when I did go and pick one up it had hit the shelves in Finecast. While this is not my first finecast model, it my first finished one from the few I do own. I have to say that this one was worth waiting for in finecast. It only tooke me a few days to get it done. Now to try it out and see what kind of chaos I can create with all the fun special rules for this critter.





Enjoy! :)

Tyranids: Spore Mines

Let's start this new wave of my Nid army small but mighty! The mighty Spore Mine has been around for a long time, and I have been looking for these guys since I finished the Biovores. I was lucky to fine them all in a box over the summer and I got to work on these guys so I can use the Biovores. In addition these guys make for some fun terrain interdictor with the deep strike rule for spore mine clusters. Now that the new codex makes them all the same type the different types of mines are for looks only. I got 16 of these guys now and ready to be fired off to the enemies of the swarm!







Enjoy! :)

Back Online.....

Well it seems the forces of the imperium have been working against the Faithless overtime.....I'm back online after a bit of an absence.......

With the recent assault by mother nature on my location on the East Coast, and a few other events in my life my time posting on the blog has been limited this past summer. I am still working on my Tyranid army project and I plan to post some new content on the army soon!

In addition to my work on painting new units for my Nid army, I have also found and built some new additions to the army that were in storage. As you can see by my listing of projects for the blog I have added a number of new units. Spore Mines....Raveners....Trygon....and even a Mawloc.....I am moving on to another round of the armies growth. This doesn't mean I haven't stopped building up the smaller bugs, I still have a good number of Termagants and Hormagaunts I am still rolling out to rise the size of those broods. In addition I am already thinking about another 3rd wave of ideas I want to work on when I am nearly completed with this new phase of the army. Last month I wanted to release an army gallery post of what I have finished, but due to my old PC taking a lightning strike those plans have been on hold. Now that I am back online I will be posting that soon!

The Dark Eldar project is still moving forward as well. I have been working on lots of Venom's and Razorwings! I will  be posting a few pics of my current projects soon. I hope to have the majority of this army done soon, and possibly getting a chance to finally play with the army in a few games before the year is out......

Finally I am hearing rumors of a possible Necron release soon! Hmmmmmmmm.....my oldest fully painted army might actually get some table time finally! I'm curious to see what this possible new codex might have in store. Of course it's still all rumor talk, and I have other things to keep me busy before this happens, but I am excited to see a new Necron codex being whispered about. I haven't truly used this army since the days of Medusa V when the Phalanx of the Bronze Face was a part of that last world campaign. WOO HOO!!!

Alright then.....let me see what I can post soon...

Enjoy! :)
