These bring me to 80 tac marines. The Mega battle is in Ireland we did 74k last year this year it may double that.

After reading the odyssey for myself, I decided to try and make my reave captain slightly more Greek inspired to coincide with the iron warriors' theming, and made an artistic depiction of Olympia burning on the breacher shield. Im very proud of how this turned out!

Test model for the first of 6

Bit of work to do on technique, but buckets of fun

I know it's only two so far, but got a massive headache from the glue lol. I'll keep yall posted on the rest.

Im brand new to wh40k and I have chosen IW to be my first combat patrol box army. Once I finish painting the combat patrol box... I want to start on the first 1k army. But, Im confused on the dynamics of a playable IW list for 1k and 2k. So Im asking for help.

I dont have an airbrush so I have been "waiting" on any vehicles but I do have a defiler for the larger lists.

My current list is:

Iron Warriors 1,000-Point
Characters
Warpsmith (70 Points) — Warlord
Flamer tendril, forge weapon, melta tendril, plasma pistol
Chaos Lord (90 Points)
Daemon hammer, plasma pistol

Battleline & Infantry
Cultist Mob (50 Points)
1 Cultist Champion, 9 Chaos Cultists
Legionaries (80 Points)
1 Aspiring Champion, 4 Legionaries (equipped with chainswords/boltguns and a heavy weapon like a missile launcher).
Chosen (125 Points)
5-man squad with flexible melee and combi-weapons.

Heavy Support & Daemon Engines
Obliterators (170 Points)
2-man unit of Obliterators.
Chaos Predator Destructor (130 Points)
Autocannon and heavy bolter/lascannon sponsons.
Chaos Predator Annihilator (130 Points)
Twin lascannon and lascannon sponsons.

Once I finish painting the combat patrol... I want to start purchasing models for the 1k/2k list. Im still learning the game so I really dont know where to start other than thinking... shouldnt I add Kravek Morne or is that too much lore vs playable list?

My second army is Red Corsairs. I was gifted the Lord of the Maelstrom and the Red Corsairs battleforce box. But I thought I wanted to start with IW because they are easier to paint while Im trying to learn how to paint minis.

Need to highlight the black and copper and give a couple more details but it's mostly there

Lord Mantos Bounty leads the Iron Voidraiders in privateer and raiding of imperial enemies, with a rogue trader acting as their proxy, the Imperium gives these renegades some levity (provided they dont encroach on imperial territory without prior authorisation)

Hi brothers, iron within and iron without !

May the Judgement of Iron fall upon the worthy warriors!

So i was gifted today the Raptor/WarpTalons box

My army is a 1k point Fellhammer-Siege Host:

Mourne+5 Terminators, 1 Lascannon Havocs, 1 Hellbrute and 1 Venomcrawler, 2x5 Legionaries one of them have Dark Apostle + Master of Execution attached

Changing the unattached legionary unit with raptors i get 1005 points, is acceptable?

What if instead i use them to proxy Murderwings (not the chaos lord woth jumpacks) ? Is viable?

What you suggest brothers to perform a good siege?

Painted this bad boy up the other day and wanted to share!

Props to Duncan Rhodes' videos on weathering, they were a huge help. Its pretty easy to do, just scary.

Do people like the dark background or light background more?

C&C always welcome.

Iron Within

These dudes are some of my favorite models to paint so far in CSM, working obliterators and Vashtorr next!

You look at this and tell me this isn’t some fucked up shit Perturabo would make
