More LoC

It has been TOO DAMN LONG!!

With all the festivities of the last few weeks, that awful build up at work and the everyday pressure of "real life" interrupting my hobby time. UGH!!

But without the distractions like that, what's the point of the glory that is the hobby eh?

I have had a few AWESOME events this season, with a pack of my fellow hobby brethren taking part in a bit of a secret nerd Santa event and trading a few select bits and another group of us putting a bit of a kink in each others hobby and buying a random box for the other person, I have been BLESSED by the True Gods in my bounty.

Not only did I get the B-E-A-UTIFUL Pestigor you see below, I also received an awesome supply of Nurglings (the OOP metal buggers), a pair of Ungors (also OOP metal) a Beastmen Battalion (Just what an up and coming Wargor needs) as well as a heap of miscellaneous bits and pieces. Including a NEW IN BLISTER Mordheim Freelance Knight!!!!!!! (That is well deserving of all those exclamation points!)

In the meantime, I have managed a tiny bit of hobby time and have managed to get together a group of warriors, a sorcerer lord, a unit of Ungor Raiders AND even start a Nurgle Centigor. I call him Pesticent.

This first pair is the only blokes from these units that I have started putting some paint on, the first being probably the most converted model in GW history, the ever popular Nurgle Champion. The second will be one of the leaders of the Beastmen faction of my final army, a lovely lvl 2 Bray Shaman.

The Champion is clearly far too clean to be repping the love of Pappa N, but I can assure all of my filthy brothers and sisters, HE WILL BE DISGUSTING! 

The Warriors unit below is the start of the Nurgle half of my list. They are of course made in my ongoing theme of all the weapons and gear possible, with WoC, Beastmen and even a pair of Daemons in there for good luck. The rather tall chap in front is the wip Sorcerer Lord, of course made using a few left over parts from the Maggoth Lord kit.

This group has to be one of my favorite units so far. I honestly love the Legions of Chaos rules mainly cause I get to take a ranged unit that isn't a hellcannon. And COME ON!!! Ungors are hilarious, they're basically angry goat puppies with the pack mentality of girls in a club bathroom, they hate EVERYONE!

I decided to have a little fun with this unit, making up a little story for them, basically they managed to get the drop on a witch hunter and his cronies a while back and have taken up his cause for themselves. the banner up back (even though raiders cannot take a banner) will be painted up with some very Empire themes, messed on up and then beastified. My favorite part of this unit is the champion, I did my best to sculpt a little witch hunter hat for him and I think the twin pistols make him think he is rather intimidating.

Last, but not least, the start to my Pesticent. There is a lot of work to go on him still, he needs armor, to lose the saddle, a hell of a lot more disease and not to mention a Nurgling or two! This guy will be one of a 10 strong group of Chaos Knights with the Mark of Nurgle. I just freaking love Centigors, even if their rules do suck a lot.

I have a hobby day planned with some mates this weekend, so i hoping to get at least my Khorne warriors unit finished, but I also have a Wargor BSB, a Khorne Lord (something VERY special planned for him) and 9 more knights at least built before I can have a game or two with these bad boys.

Well that's it from me. Thanks for checking out my stuff and I look forward to churning through some more when I get the chance.

And now for a little blood on the streets.

So due to my somewhat rampant love of all things converting and a rather timely campaign at my local Gee Dub store, I've gone and made myself a few warbands and have had a hell of a lot of fun doing it.

My Norse band.

 There's a certain happiness that comes along with a FREAKING WEREWOLF!!!!! I love the idea of Wulfen, they're seen as crazy bastards, but revered at the same time. Kind of like a warning as to what can happen, but something they all REALLY want to achieve.

I'm actually a little confused about the ogre in the background, he looks a little too Tomb Kings to be hanging out with the Norse!

 There's my Jarl, Karl Karlson (though now it's Karl Karlson the third, he died A LOT!)

Also is my Tilean Marksman (just a quick FYI for anyone who isn't too familiar with Mordheim, GET A MARKSMAN! He just snipes people left right and centre.) and one of my berserkers, one of the Norse Dwarves. (An excuse to use that awesome new clam pack!)

I had a few great games with the North men, but they were followed by a few terrible ones, games that left my warband without leadership, furry friends and in the second case, one blind Berserker and one with only one arm left.

RESTART!

Played a few games this last weekend and even after a few really crappy losses, (due to my game play and terrible tactics, not my opponents, who are all great guys!!) Managed to get a few great shots during one game where we needed to capture a lost prince. The silly bugger runs in a random direction, often into the waiting arms of something that wants to eat/murder/torture him.

My Wulfen just wanted a hug and that Cold One is just trying to lick his face!

Who wouldn't want to cuddle this?

Though I haven't stopped there, I've thrown my hand at a few hired swords and put together some other guys for me to (hopefully) bring into a few games soon.

 There is a Witch Hunter completely single mini, Johann Van Hal, an Araby Pirate, though he is almost 100% High Elf Archer and a kit bashed Bounty Hunter.

 
                  


Well that's me for the night everyone.

Methinks that a few more minis are on the cards, maybe a Priest of Morr, maybe Sigmar too.
