Welcome to the workshop
Now that we've moved and I have a dedicated hobby room (henceforth referred to as "the workshop") I thought it was time I got myself organised, and setup a proper blog.
It also occurred to me while unpacking that my armies all need updating, whether it was the list, the bases, the paint scheme or details (I think my IG regiment were started waaay back in 2004).
So where am I going with this you may ask? Well this is where I'm going to show the updates, as well as any side projects I happen to get distracted by.
Let's start with where we are now.
This is each of the armies starting points.
The Patrian 121st Royal Light Infantry.

Big parts for this is building the basilisk and taurox and matching them to the steampunk style of the army. I'm also going to rebase the army as the static grass and gravel looks a little tired. I'm also repainting all the skin tones (why 2004 me thought dwarf flesh followed by flesh wash was a good look 2017 me will never know)
World Eaters 128th company
Chaos Lord, terminator armour, 2xchainfist, terminator retinue with landraider

So with these guys I need to build 3 more marines (and having plastic mkIV makes this so much easier), weather everything to match the landraider, finalise the rhino, and rebuild the hellbrute. I was never truly happy with the design I started with and after Commissar Molotov's post I knew what route to take....cue converting a leviathan.
White Scars 6th company

Librarian, bike
Command squad, standard, apothecary, champion, 2plasma pistol, bikes

Now these guys were originally built as a Ravenwing force using the 2008 DA codex, so have undergone the biggest changes. Out goes Sammael, and in comes a Captain, an apothecary, a company champion, 3 more bikers, another attack bike and conversion work on the "stormhog" to make it a wysiwyg Stormhawk and Landspeeder vengeance to make it my Sicaran.
So let's start with where I am.
Patrian 121st
WIP Basilisk.

Built the main body she'll for the gun carriage, based it on the AM onager dunecrawler, the basilisk (duh!) and a sentinel for the cab to match my Leman Russ. Now to start detailing the armour panels and adding a bucket load of rivets
Thanks for looking.
