Dreadknights, coteaz, and my 2 Vendreads are now ready for the brush.

Still got to assemble my new chimera, some death korps models i have on the way, and some servitors. I have some Multi-meltas on the way from hoard o bits for the servitors. So unfortunately its a bit of a waiting game for those parts. Still, progress is progress.

2 weeks to go till guardcon. Many times have i said that i "will have my army done". Many times i have not got even close. But this time is different. I am well on my way. Dreads with arms! Still obviously got to do the pilots, and base. But they are very close to joining the painting pile.

I had a look at my list, and remembered ive still got 3x servitors, coteaz, some henchmen, and a chimera to sort out. So might make a trip to GW, pick up some guardsman squad (would rather Death Korps, but dont want to waste time on shipping) and a chimera kit. Bang them out over the weekend and get ready to paint.

Not to be out done on the Magnetising autocannons onto dreadnoughts, Here i have my own.

Turned out not too bad if i say so my self. Personally, i think my magnetising ability is far better than that of Mr Grimz. Look how much better my arms stay on compared to his, bet his fall off all the time.

Anyway... More pics of Rifleman dreads, yay...

Next up, apart from sticking the leg armour on the left fella, is finishing assembly on my three dreadknights.
Following that, is finishing off assembly on a terminator unit. Then I think im ready for paint.

Finally got around to magnetizing my Dread Arms, mainly in anticipation of the 4v4 Battle Royale at our games club this afternoon.

Arms are made from the Aegis defence line kit, and make for better autocannon arms, than the forgeworld ones in my opinion.

Still need to magnetize the torso, but for now blu-tac will suffice.

A forge world order of mine took 3 weeks longer than expected to get to me, because a single component out of a reasonably large order was out of stock. I was told more than once that my order could not be split and shipped seperately. Dissapointed at that, but excited my stuff arrived atleast a couple of days before golden demon is due. So... Here goes.

I cracked into the MKIII "Iron Marines", to enter 5 of them as a squad. Assembly went well. I imagined these marines not as pre-heresy, rather very very old marines, maybe lost in time and thus behind on the latest gear updates blah blah... What ever, doesnt matter, i wanted old. I, by accident, or luck, ended up kit bashing servo skulls for heads. (one of my MKIII heads was very badly miss cast, causing me to search for an ulternative)

Anyway, this is what resulted:
