Blessings of the Plaguefather - Nurgle War Mammoth

 Probably the favourite thing I have finished in a while, a Nurgle War Mammoth for AoS.

Blessings of the Plaguefather - Rotigus, the Generous One

 Added a third Great Unclean One to my Nurgle Daemons, this time the named character Rotigus.

Blessings of the Plaguefather - Lord of Affliction and Pusgoyle Blightlords

Recently finished for a Drowned Men Maggotkin force are a Lord of Affliction and four Pusgoyle Blightlords.

Blessings of the Plaguefather - Nurgle Mega-Gargant

Anther enjoyable build.

A Nurgle Kraken Eater Mega-Gargant. He will accompany a Maggotkin Drowned Men force.

So much I am sure at some point I will do another one.

Blessings of the Plaguefather - Giant Spawn

Managed to find a second hand one of these on ebay, wanted one for some time as I have always liked them.

I stripped it, took it apart and rebuilt it.

Blessings of the Plaguefather - Plague Ship

I finished this a while ago now.

Fun build and quite happy how it turned out.

Blessings of the Plaguefather - The Drowned Men Leaders

I recently finished some Maggotkin characters to lead a Drowned Men force.

We have the Admiral of the Plague Fleet himself, Gutrot Spume, a Lord of Plagues and a Lord of Blights and to finish one of the new Rotbringer Sorcerers.

First up, Gutrot Spume.

Blessings of the Plaguefather - Great Unclean One

Recently painted a second Great Unclean One.

I already have the Forge World model but the plastic kit is too good to resits.

Ogroid Myrmidon

 Something a bit different for me. I picked up an Ogroid Myrmidon for Warcry and painted it blue. Not painted anything blue before.

Quite happy with him, not brilliant but it was a nice change.

Warhammer Fest 2018 - Part 1 Specialist Games

Welcome to a massive dump of pictures from today's Warhammer Fest.

First up a load of pictures from Specialist Games.

Warhammer Fest 2016 - Part Four - Lord of the Rings, Adeptus Titanicus and Age of Sigmar

Final post covering today with pictures of new models and things to come.

The first two highlight what else is coming from Specialist Games.

Lord of the Rings / The Hobbit.

We have a 'new' terrain piece, it has actually been sitting on a shelf for two years waiting for it's day to come.

It looks a very nice kit. It is plastic and is very versatile it seems. The board below was built using this kit.

We have the first of some new units. This will be in resin and produced by Forge World.

Adeptus TItanicus.

Ok, not exactly much to show here except the poster below.

However talking to Andy Hoare, Mark Bedford and Chris Drew I can mention the following:

The game is set during the Horus Heresy in the spirit of the original Adeptus Titanicus.
It will begin with just Titans.
The scale will be 8mm - They decided on this scale after 3D printing a Marine, Dread, Leman Russ, Warlord and a Mastodon in three different scales. 8mm was deemed the best as you could see the details to the point of telling different armour marks apart but didn't make the Titans too big.
8mm will make a Warlord around 6" tall (that's what it looked like why Andy Hoare put his hands apart, don't blame me if the final model is smaller or larger...).
The models will be produced in resin by Forge World.
Typical force may be in the region of two Warlords, two Reavers and two-three Warhounds.
More Titan variants are possible.
Down the road infantry and tanks are to be introduced.
Other forces are also possible, this includes Xenos which can be introduced in a themed expansion, e.g. Adeptus Titanicus: Armageddon to bring in the Orks.
Currently the Titans are being 3D modelled by Chris Drew, the Warlord has been done as the 40k version was originally 3D modelled so it was a case of just scaling things down and getting it to work as a model which can be manufactured.

We may, may, get to see something at the Forge World Open Day...(may, depending on Tony Cottrell)

Age of Sigmar:

Forge World have a couple of things in the works. One pretty big, one massively big.

The pretty big Fimir leader, with alternative head option.

Amusingly Alan Bligh had to google translate the phrase 'his cloak is made of human skin' while telling the painter how he needed to be painted...he now had the phrase in several language for future reference.

And the massively big Khornate Dragon.

And that is the final post for today showing pictures of new models and giving information I picked up.

I'll do one of two follow up posts of anything else I grabbed a picture of.
