Toy's n' That....

[Lord Borak]

Whoa, wait, are those official models?!

I never realised Inq had anything more than a handful of figs.

Yes mate. All official. Gw only did 'two' guardsmen models but they did a booster pack with different arms, heads etc. You can find pictures of the whole range here....... http://www.collecting-citadel-miniatures.com/wiki/index.php/Inquisitor_54mm   I'm missing five models from the range and a couple of the booster packs. (missing Vindicare, Calidus, Sister Repentia, Unbound Daemonhost and 1 Civiian).



OSJ:
Sounds like the trusty old 2nd ED scheme I did my own Cadians. Alas, that was a small boy paint job and now they sport a black armour and grey Fatigues colour scheme. As seen below



Although that may not paint very well at 54mm. So I may go for the Urban Camo style of Grey, black and white.

Right. Mini update because this thread has gone too long without an update. This is my distraction from my distraction from my distraction from the project I SHOULD be doing.......... not that I can remember what that was now. Regardless. Here is the Captain of the ship 'Sector Express'. Fry West and his party consisting of MORBO, an angry and violent alien bounty hunter and lastly some form of Xenos Fry picked up on his travels - Jokingly named the Hypno toad for it's ability to hypnotise potential victims.



Not sure what colour to do his trousers. Ideas?


I have also had my cultist models cast up by a professional (ie: not me in my my garage)

[marell le fou]

German green for trousers i would say.

[Stormwind]

Blimey I had no idea!

28mm is a massive scale for me so I never investigated the larger models.

[Lord Borak]

Damn my ability to not stick to one project at a time! Well, back to Gothic for the time being. Some random Ebay purchases of cheap Ork ships........... This is 750pts. No idea if it's legal but the fleet will grow

We have 1 Kill Kroozer, 8 Ravagers and 6 onslaughts.




They are just base coated at the moment. Gunmetal, a wash and a dry-brush but I'm not sure what colours to do for the details. Ideas?

In other news I have decided to re-do the bases on my large imperial fleet. Unfortunately my enthusiasm ended when I realised that that would be 83 ships. Eads!! Oh well......... I've bought the bases now! 

[Lord Borak]

Well, That escalated quickly!!

Some WIP pics of my escorts being redone. 15 Swords, 15 Firestorms and 15 Cobras. The green is done, the metal needs a couple of highlights and the prows need doing.




Also, some Battleships! 2 Retributions, 1 Terra, 1 Victory and 2 Emperor class battleships

Wow, great progress!

[osjclatchford]

Nice. Crazy volume of ships duder! All metals or some resin in there? It's one expensive fleet otherwise...

[Lord Borak]

All original metal It's also a very heavy case! There's 10 Cruisers, 6 Battlecruisers and 4 light cruisers to come yet. Plus 3 Battle Barges, 6 strike cruisers and 5 Novas for my Marine fleet. All, in all, 10,000pts I need to get done.

That's just the Imperial fleet. I have 2500pts of Chaos that are bare plastic sitting in that case as well. I'm going to be a busy chappy!!

[osjclatchford]

You crazy man...

[radu lykan]

You need more ships.....
One day your fleet v mine maybe that should be one week your fleet v mine
Nice work

[Lord Borak]

I think my fleet may out number yours and Jamies combined now. It would be an epic game though. Get your chaos fleet up to 5000pts, borrow my 2500pts and then we can have a 7500pt game. Chaos Vs Imperial

[Lord Borak]

Ok, after 8hrs of Inquisitor 54mm games yesterday I'm taking a well earned break from big toy soldiers and concentrating on tiny toy soldiers instead.

I never liked the GW Grand cruisers and I couldn't find anything that really suited my Bakka fleet theme of old Cargo ships turned Warships. So I've started possibly my most complicated Plasticard project yet........ The RUBRUM NANUM. A Huge Ore Transporter who's massive holds have been converted into flight bays to turn it into an Annihilator class Grand Cruiser

Still WIP. The Dorsal detail is done, as is the majority of the Bridge section. I still need to do the engines and work out what I want to do with the Port/Starboard engine rooms. Think I should leave it boxy or add the Fins/Wings that normal Navy Cruisers have?

Pics are a bit rubbish but you get the General idea.

[Vermis]

Blimey. That's a lot of tiny bits of plasticard.  Amazing!

[Blindhorizon]

I dig this, will you be casting this? Also this could make a really good dreadnaught proxy. The lore on the dreadnaught I believe is that they are pre void shield technology. They where huge cruisers with massive slabs of armor many times thicker then Standard cruisers. The reason they fell out of service is it's easier to let a shield take damage rather then repair and refit bent and shredded armor. I'm very interested to see where this goes. Also if you need any casting tips or advice, perhaps help with casting I am interested.
