More Dark Angels for now

Continuing to work on my DA a bit, starting with a Master. 

Magnetized for a chainsword and power axe.  The axe is pretty cheap so I'll probably use that more often than not.  The idea is to have a master, lieutenant and 8 vets with plasma in a drop pod...for when something just has to die.

I have 5 vets mostly done, but I lost my decals - a giant bag of them - so I can't quite finish them and it's very annoying. I don't want to have to spend money on replacement decal sheets!!!

I'm still not gung-ho about starting the kommandos but soon. I just want to finish all the DA stuff I have first.  I have the vets done except for one decal and varnish, and a unit of Devastators with 2 Lascannons are well on their way.

Ramping the hobby back up: Gauntlet Tactical Squad, Primaris Lieutenant.

Finally starting to get back into the hobby groove.  Finished a full unit of Dark Angels tactical marines, the unit that has the upgrade sprue shoulder pads from the Gauntlet Tactical squad box.

I also worked on a Primaris Lieutenant.  It's one of the easy to build models that come in the 3 model box with the arm and head from DA Primaris upgrade sprue.

I am also going to build up a unit of vets with plasma for with the "weapons of the dark ages" stratagem and a drop pod, converting them from assault marines I built for the old Lion's Blade I was building.     Lastly, I'm got a 5 man Dev squad with a single grav cannon. I will swap this out for either lascannons or missiles. Not sure yet.

After that I need to save up for a speeder to build a talonmaster and a Darkshroud.

Showcase: Garden of Moor

 

So that's what I've been slowly working on for a while. Put the Garden of Moor on a base and replaced the angel statue with a space marine.  It's a kit provided by my FLGS I put together and painted up.  Nothing but some basic drybrushing, but since it's not mine I didn't want to put a lot of work into it considering it probably won't last long.

Anyway working on some DA for the new codex next.

Showcase: Evil Sunz Killa Kanz

Yep I actually finished them. 

That gives me 12 kanz for 2 full units.  These guys aren't really all that bad.

Sorry, trying to get my mojo back.

Not much has been going on for me in the hobby front lately.  Real life is dragging me down and I spend my time on youtube.

I just stare at my nearly completed Kanz and sigh with a complete lack of interest.

Plus I've been trying to get back into MTG so when I am on youtube it's either mtg or car videos.

I do have an upload schedule set so that's been a help.  So has getting back to a scale model car club meeting. 

Monday: Monday madness (hobby, rants, whatever)
Wednesday: New talking about orks
Friday: New battle reports

so far so good, especially since I can record for future uploads.

anyway I hope to get a kan showcase up soon.

Be well!

100 Power Level Dread mob tournament list

As the leaves turn and my financial situation stabilizes a bit, time to start thinking about tournaments again.

This time it's at a store I've never been too, but yet it's not that far away.

And it's using power level instead of points. Orks usually lose out on that front.  Oh, also no forgeworld so the killtank stays at home.

I also got another box of kans from my cousin so it's time for more!

The biggest downside to this list is having just 4 command points. Every game I find myself wanting more.

But here it is:

Spearhead Detachment 
HQ: Mek on bike, KFF, PK
HQ: Wierdboy w/warpath

Elite: Nob w/Waggh! banna
Elite: 15 kommandos, 2x burna, nob w/BC

Heavy: 6 kans, rokkits
Heavy: 6 kans, grotzookas
Heavy: Gorkanaut
Heavy: 2 dreads, 2x skorcha
Heavy: 2 Mek Gunz, 2x KMK

99PL, 1921pts

Not a lot of models but there sure is a heck of a lot of wounds with a 5++

If I had another kff mek on bike I might run that instead of the wierdboy just to get better coverage but I will be spending my time finishing off the Kans.

Next couple of weeks of league I'm going to swap out the Gorkanaut with a Mork- and dropping one of the KFF meks.  We'll see how that goes.

Showcase: Blood Axe Magnetized, Motorized Gorkanaut complete!

Well it's been a slow month for me on the channel, the blog and actual hobby.

I've been enthralled by my old self, the car guy. The guy that worked on cars throughout high school and beyond right up to the point of getting first into M:TG and then 40k. 

I did finally finish the 'naut today though.
