Casualties of War

 

Being wounded in war is always terrible...in Winter

wounded and freezing in Winter is especially bad.

These casualties are resin pieces that I finished today.

Heavy Weapons Make a Big Difference in a Fire Fight

Be they dual Auto-Cannons or

Multi-Barrel Heavy Bolters, the Heavy Weapons Team is always appreciated, especially when the fighting is tough.

These are plastic pieces I painted earlier this month

Twilight Before Ragnarok Start to Finish

 

The starting concept.

                                                  

                                                                     Seeing how they fit.

Glueing sand, very tedious.

We're Elite Veterans -We don't need Shiny Armor!

This carack squad of Dark Angels Terminators was fought on thousands of worlds for the glory of the Emperor.

Though bitter cold to burning heat, like here on In'frnss Trmnss, they have conquered the foes of the Terran Empire. Their battles have left their marks on both body and armor.

So, their armor is worn, dented and patched almost beyond recognition from that shiny new equipment they were issued as new replacements' countless decades past. Yet they would never think of replacing any of their armor, for each hole, dents and repair is a mark of their devotion, experience and victory in never ceasing battles. For one does not discard an old reliable friend, for something shiny and new.

These are plastic pieces I painted this month.

Does Size Really Matter?

                                     In the Future of 40K, there is only WAR! 

Terminators, the greatest warriors in the Empire of Terra, must change with the times. Especially with the concept of size. Here we have three Dark Angels terminators. From right to left, the smallest is from the late 20th century. In the middle is one from the early 21st century and to the far left is a current model.

Size creep is very, very obvious, as well as price cost.

All are Games Workshop are plastic and clearly show how my painting styles have changed.

Follow the Captain for Battle Glory

 

Captain Lst-Drknss, the officer who has never known defeat.

                                               

His armor is old, battered and repaired countless times, yet Captain Lst-Drknss will never replace his old friend. 

For while he has never known defeat, even the greatest of warriors has their "lucky" piece and for Captain Lst-Drknss that is his beloved Dark Angels Terminator armor.

Captain Lst-Drknss is a plastic piece.

Da Bears Beat Super Bowl Champs 24-15

                                                     VICTORY BEARS 24- EAGLES 15

9 victories in the last 10 games and Da Bears are in first place in the NFC North. 

Victory number 9 saw the Eagles fly off in an embarrassing homefield defeat.

Yet, lots of tough games are still to follow, so time to load up!

GO BEARS.
