Convergence: Iron Mother Directrix

Probably one of my favorite models in the faction. Planning on running a pairing with her and Lucant for upcoming tournaments and for use in the Champions format at an upcoming convention.

Warhammer Underworlds: Nightvault Part 2

Finishing up the second warband included in the Warhammer Underworlds: Nightvault box, Stormsire's Cursebreakers. In Part 1 I painted up the other warband included, Thorns of the Briar Queen.
Much like the Thorns warband these miniatures are very nice looking. I also appreciate the unique bases that are included and specific for each individual model. They look great and add a nice touch.

Warhammer Underworlds: Nightvault Part 1

Recently picked up the new starter set for Warhammer Underworlds, Nightvault. It's a fun little game and the miniatures from Games Workshop are top notch and really fun to paint.

First up is Thorns of the Briar Queen, one of the two warbands included in the the Nightvault set. These painted pretty quickly and look great with minimal painting effort.

Part two will be up soon with the other warband in the box, Stormsire's Cursebreakers.

Convergence of Cyriss: Prime Axiom/Conflux

It's been quite a while since my last post . A lot of big life changes over the past few months and I'm just getting back to spending some time painting .
Kicking things off with my magnetized Prime Axiom/ Conflux.

Gaslands: Two more vehicles finished

Got two more vehicles done for Gaslands. I actually liked the graphic on the top so I masked it off with liquid mask before spraying down the rest of the car body. Added some spiky bits, couple gun barrels, and swapped out the wheels.

And a before shot straight out of the package.

Wanted to do a car that was just weathered and a little beat up rather than completely altered. I decided to keep the windshield and just add a couple cracks and dust to it.

Convergence of Cyriss: Razor Wall for Axis

I made a wall template for use with Axis to represent his Razor Wall spell. I magnetized the top to come off so that models can be placed on top when needed.

Convergence of Cyriss: Inverters

More Convergence pics. This time two Inverters I've been running in my Axis list with great success.

Gaslands: First cars done

Haven't even played a game yet but it's been fun and a nice change of pace from painting Warmachine or Malifuax miniatures. Getting some vehicles done and ready for the table.

And a before shot

I tore the truck apart, stripped the paint, jacked up the height to use larger wheels, and added in grates where the windows were using drywall tape. Going forward I won't be using that again. It works okay but not great. After that I added some weaponry in the back using a piece of sprue, zip ties, some brass rod, and spear quiver from Hordes miniatures.

For paint I weathered it trying the salt and hairspray technique for the first time. It came out okay but I'll do it much better next time. Then I just did a black wash and added additional rust and dirt effects.


Chose this one for my next vehicle since it was almost ready straight out of the package.

I didn't get a shot of this one beforehand but I did very little to it; the paint was already pretty good so I left it as well. I did do a brown wash over it and added rust, bare metal, and dirt effects after. I also added the three spikes to the front and the front and rear windshield grating.

Gaslands

Been following the Mad Max inspired game Gaslands for the last several weeks; watching battle reports, joined the FB group, and recently picked up the rulebook as well as some hot wheels and matchbox cars to convert.

I also dug around in my bits box for things that I could use to get that Mad Max look happening. Found some things that should work but I'll have to get creative with what I've got and do a bit of scratch building probably.

Game looks like a ton of fun and I'm looking forward to playing my first games soon after I get my first cars done.

Convergence of Cyriss: Transfinite Emergence Projector

Having fun taking a break from playing Legion to dip into Convergence for awhile. Finally getting around to posting the remainder of what I've finished up to this point. The TEP is Convergence's power piece and a pretty cool model to boot. My opponents are glad that I'm only running one of these in my lists at the moment.

Convergence of Cyriss: Diffuser

The faction's awesome shooty, threat extender vector.

Convergence of Cyriss: Corollary

It's hardly a Convergence list without one of these.

Convergence of Cyriss: Optifex Directive

Fixers gonna fix. Can't run a jack heavy faction like Convergence without these boys and their wrenches.

Convergence of Cyriss: Galvanizers

This blog is going to be very blue very awhile as I'm finishing up model after model on my speed painting Convergence project. What's an Axis list without at least a couple Galvanizers?

Convergence of Cyriss: Axis

Finally getting some models finished for my Convergence project. As outlined in my last post, this is an effort to get the entire faction speed painted up in bulk. Work continues but I'm getting my 75 point Axis list finished up first so I can get it on the table while I work on the rest of the faction. First up is the man himself, Axis.

Malifaux: Guild Dr. Grimwell

Continuing on with some miniatures from the Malifaux 2 player box. Planning on using him in my Lady Justice crew to help get me some options at 50 soulstones. Who doesn't like a crazed doctor with a bone saw?

Malifaux Guild Witchling Stalkers

Got my first game of Malifaux in a long time last week and got me inspired to paint up a few miniatures. Did these up in a few hours on a Saturday morning. Fun models and easy to paint.

Star Wars Imperial Assault: Return to Hoth Part 3

Wrapping up this expansion with the heroes MHD-19, Verena Talos, and Loku Konolua as well as Echo Base Troopers. Check out Part 1 and Part 2 if you missed it. 

All done and ready to play!

Star Wars Imperial Assault: Return to Hoth Part 2

Continuing on from Part 1, we've got the SC2-M Repulsor Tank, General Sorin, Dengar, and two wampas. Part 3 coming soon; wrapping up with the heroes.

Star Wars Imperial Assault: Return to Hoth Part 1

We've taken to not playing Imperial Assault without painted miniatures as it just adds so much and looks so much cooler. I've made my wife wait almost 3 months now to play the Return to Hoth expansion while I wrapped up some other projects and get around to getting all the miniatures painted.

We'll get things started with some Snowtroopers and HK assassin droids.
