Redesigning Deathjack – Part 1

I think Privateer Press have some of the best sculpts of any wargames company. Deathjack, however, is not one of them – I really don’t like the shoulder skulls or the horns on the head. Of course that’s just my opinion, but I dislike the model so much I’ve not bought it and subsequently never ...

Deathjack WIP

Man, I have had a difficult time with Cryx. They are subtle but vicious. I just haven’t found my groove yet. So, I have decided that I should probably take a new approach at it. Coming from Khador and the Pirate subgroup of Mercs, I am used to a very melee approach in the game. ...

While the Others are Away…

Neomorte will play.

Not really. I am working on bases instead. I have finally gotten my head around the sort of base I want to have on my Fight Club Cryx army. I have to give credit where it is due. DangerMouse on the Privateer Press boards wrote a tutorial on the type of base that ...

More and more assembly – where does the time go?

Well, Walker came through on my pre-order and I picked up the following:

  • Invictors UA
  • Arcanist x 2
  • House Shyeel Magister x 2
  • Ghost Sniper x 2
  • Soulless Escort x 3
  • Garryth

While in the store, I also decided to take advantage of the 30% sale and I picked up Gorten Grundback and an underpriced Driller…

So Friday night, instead of my normal ...

Prime Weekend

I spent the better part of my weekend priming miniatures for Fight club at a casual pace. I still primed a ton of stuff. I primed up a base unit of Horny Raiders, half an 8 man unit of Revenant Crew, the Revenant Cannon (forgot I had it) an 8 man Mechanithrall unit with the ...

Assembling more Retribution…

Ordinarily, I paint every single evening, but last night Idecided to spend my night assembling.

I put together my 10 Invicotrs that arrived on Wednesday – although I have decided NOT to attach the arms until I paint them. The arms are pretty close to the chest and would otherwise be VERY difficult to paint. ...

Sometimes it is hardest just to start

So the big announcement has dropped. The Riverdog Challenge: Fight Club has started its full powered steam into next year’s eagerly anticipated release of Warmachine MKII and the Open Beta of the Hordes MKII rules set. Awesome. Now I don’t have to talk in hushed tones or use secret handshakes. I have looked forward to ...

Snapjaw = PITA Part II

How could I have misjudged the difficulty of this model’s assembly, I will never really know. It has lived up the to Pain in the Ass title I gave it in the last entry. In the days that have past, I have attached the head and one arm. Day three, whenever that happens, will focus ...

Snapjaw = PITA

I picked up Snapjaw and Wrong Eye as my prize for winning a Warmachine/Hordes (a different, upcoming blog entry). As a Khador player, I was very familiar with the “Khador Gap”, but I was a bit unprepared for the amount of greenstuff work that Snapjaw needs.

It will take me two days to get him assembled ...
