Journal 23 -Dystopian Wars Troop Transport

Hello all,

Just a quick hobby update today. I recently finished an Olympic class transport for my fleets. It is an interesting ship with some equally interesting rules. I especially like the idea that though it has no big guns don't let it get close as it  is packed full of troops! Good fun all around.

Well anyway here she is- Enjoy

Notice the lights are out in all the windows? Blackout in effect!

I love the classic lines of this ship

Well I hope you like it. Please let me know.

Thanks,

Commission Work

Hello All,

I'm here today with pictures of some Commissions I have done in 2012.I don't really do that many as my own stuff would never get done if I did. When I do I try to give it my all. First off I will start with an Infinity model.

First up-Infinity Rebot

Assembled with an apoxie culpt base

All painted up and ready for play

Up Next- Infinity Cargo Containers

Good Cover

From here we move to Dystopian Wars: Covenant of Antarctica

Here is my test pattern- Daedalus Class Large Flyer

Finally we move to the Warhammer Fantasy Skaven Army I painted in 2010. This time around I it was a Vermin Lord conversion  made from the Plastic Daemon kit and the Current (Still) Vermin Lord model. I think this is one of my better conversions.

The head is from the old Vermin kit the body of a Daemon Prince and hair of Apoxie Sculpt

The Base is made entirely from Apoxie Sculpt

Weapon is a kit bash from the Daemon prince

Vive La Republique (Dystopian War update)

Hello all ,

RGH here with a Dystopian war update. For those of you waiting for an update on the Great Brass Scorpion fear not as one is forth coming (just as soon as I have time to break out the airbrush again.) I have been spoken to by several folks, who are kind enough to read my stuff, and told that there have not been enough updates in recent months. It was easy to ignore when the NOVA was on the horizon but now I have no real excuse... So here is are some pictures of my recent works.

A while back I had a post where I showed off my then recent French fleet for Dystopian wars. I decided to add a fleet carrier to round out the force and then went to work painting it. I finished the escorts early on and posted them here. As of this past weekend the rest of the fleet is done and ready for viewing. So without adding too much more to this here they are!





First up Group Shots

Whats been going on... Hobby update

Hello All,

It's been a while since I last gave a hobby Update so here it goes-When 6th ed 40K came out I decided to really push to complete a 40K army.Though I have lots of stuff painted and I can field armies with all painted troops,  I do not have an army for 40K that I consider truly  complete. After a lengthy discussion with my wife we came to the consensus that the Space wolves would be the army to finish. Here are our reasons

1.  It is my oldest army- I started collecting it back in 2000 so it is a 12+ year old army
2.  It is mostly done already- I had less than 40 models to paint when I started the final push
3. I think they are good choice for 6th ed.- They have tons of choices and allow me to play several types of armies not just one or two
4. it is a cross section of  my painting ability over the last 12 years. You can really see how my style has changed over the years (Mostly for the better)

Well here is a shot of the most recent stuff I have worked on.
