Forge World Bulletin 20

So newy newness from Forge World, Flame Cannon on a Knight and event only Imperial Navigator.

Planned Weapon Placement

I've spent most of this weekend lurking on Ebay hoovering up Dark Eldar Venoms and old Harlequins to make the numbers up for the planned Unbound Harlequin army, I think you can call this my mid-life crisis army as Harlequins were the first army I had. While I was keeping one eye on that and one eye on the Candian GP (come on Massa!) I was also getting the underslung weapons mounted to the Dread.
I started out magneting the outside of the powerfists, I got the mags reversed so the guns will only go on one side each, I need to use one of my melta guns to give me that option for the Death Company/ Furioso Dread. I green stuffed the magnets onto both flamers and storm  bolters and left those to cure over night. Today I dug out the Wytches to see if I can pass them off as Harlequins as well. I painted the guns and tried them on the fists, I also painted the magnets on the power fists. This is a nice little conversion and I do like how this looks as I prefer guns on the outside of wrists.

Baal Pattern Predator For My Knights Of Blood

Not had much time to devote to hobby stuff this past few weeks so several things have been in the table getting worked on slowly, mostly bits for the Knights of Blood army, Storm Raven, Dreads and this week when mood and work have allowed I've been working on the mk1 Baal Pattern Predator. This is the first version of the tank. It isn't in the Angels of Death Codex so it's not 2nd ed and being more DA than BA I'm not really digging deeper on this front. When I bought it it came with the orginal cover, just in bits. I finished assembly, sprayed it black and then Wazzdakka red base coat with an Evil Sunz Scarlet wet brush coat over that. Just need to add the chapter badge now.

Bear Cavelry Is For Kids.

Came across this on Facebook today. This is not mine, I have nothing to do with this amazing piece of kit apart from posting them up here. So I'll see your Bear Cavelry and raise you this.

Yesterday Was A S.H.I.E.L.D Day

I'd started adding the Chapter Icon to the Storm Raven the other day and it suddenly dawned on me that I hadn't done the icons on the Dreads as well, so with having a short shift yesterday, and after changing my ebay password and texting a co-worker her hours for next week cos I'd had a hissy fit and screwed everyone round so I could have the weekend off I need, I broke out the beige skull, evil sunz scarlet and black for the swords. I also put got one of the older Glorious 1000 so I could see it side by side with one painted with the new orange, and it is a different shade, but with the nuln oil wash on it, as we used to say when I worked in a garage, "a blind man on a flying horse will never notice. I also watched the end of the first series of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D and loved it, was surprised to see Samuel L Jackson in so much of it."

Would You Let Me Use These?

As I've said I intend to run the Knights of Blood as both a Blood Angels Chapter and a Codex Chapter using the Charcadons Chapter Tactic of Reavers Of The Outer Darkness, I even have a counts as Tiberous The Red Wake, and the counts as Seth can still be used just armed with The Teeth of Terra. now with Tiberous you can take a unit of Lightning Clawed armed Terminators as Troops, looking through the Forge World site I saw the Red Butchers and want them, rather badly, I think that they aren't that far away from the feel of what Charcadons are, just maybe deface with a touch of green stuff the obvious World Eater iconograph and I feel I can get away with this. Thoughts please?

Fracking Stupidity Of This Paper

The link below is to news that is big right now in this Britian, while it's sad that someone was murdered I feel the Daily Mail blaming it on Necromunder is massively wrong, we are talking a Doctor Cox level of sarcasm for this.
