Heresy Era Death Guard Lascannon Squads Completed

I pulled my finger out and started painting some of the Death Guard infantry I showed earlier on the blog. I started with the more difficult to paint and assemble Heavy Support squads, with Lascannons (the local meta is staunch as shit, lots of Av14, super heavies and drop podding Leviathans). 

I have been running 7 and 7 man squads in test games but if I have more points available in larger games I will do 10 and 5 to make sure I can bully high value targets with the big squad and plug away at dreadnoughts and the like with the smaller one.

25 Tacticals to do next, then I'll paint the Castigator for myself as a treat.


Cheers
Jack

That are some really nice models! I which I would have the penitence to do a 30 k army... but the shear amount of models, and money, and the level of painting needed is staggering. But I will follow your progress with anticipation! Good luck and happy painting.

Now that is alot of models to paint all at once! They look great though
Thanks Agis, thanks NafNaf!

Tis a lot of dudes, the Betrayal at Calth and Burning of Prospero sets has made it cheaper and easier than ever but it is still very expensive and requires a lot of time to get in to. Bigger battles still flow well but stuff dies so quickly you end up painting a lot that you just take off the table.

They look great man. Awesome stuff that really captures the essence of the DG.

Acastus Knight Porphyrion COMPLETED!!!!!

Acacstus Knight Porhpyrion, easily the biggest and most complex kit build and paint job I have ever done for a gaming miniature. I'm really happy with the result but the 60 hrs I spent on getting it finished kinda baked my noodle. I have no idea how the titan painters get through it! Anyway here are some studio shots, let me know what you think!

Mors Miles - The Death Knight - Legio Vulpa Maniple 13.

Next up, the Princeps Senoris of my favourite maniple style in the game, the Ferrox! Princeps Senoris Agdex is a lead from the front type homie. He has a flair for destruction and more often than not, his Assault Reaver Titan - Mors Miles isn't spared from copping it either. I play Mors Miles and it's matching counterpart Atro Messorum quite aggressively, often pushing the two up together then rotating the lead titan so they can share the damage taken before dishing it back out within the Melta half range. In the most recent event, Mors Miles was detonated in 2/5 games due to this play style but it created opportunities to take the objectives or for other Titans in the battlegroup to get the kill shots while also claiming quite a few engine kills of his own. Mors Miles - The Death Knight - Legio Vulpa Maniple 13. Princeps Senoris Agdex headed up a Ferrox Maniple deployed to Enterigar III from the helm of his assault Reaver - Mors Miles. An aggressiv...

Deus Bellum - God of War - Legio Vulpa Command Group Alpha.

Hey y'all, I've still been chipping away at Adeptus Titanicus stuff. I really freaking love this game and was lucky enough to get a spot to go and play at Act of Heresy V in January so wanted to get everything finished and ready for the event. I wrote a short piece for each of the Titans and created a Princeps for them, I'll open batting with the big kahuna, Princeps Maxima Dhrykax in his Warlord Titan, the Deus Bellum. I normally go small time with my character creations (Sergeants, Lieutenants, Centurions and the like) but because it seems that I'm one of the only guys on the planet who's really committed to Legio Vulpa from the game release, I've gone big and named the boss himself. I doubt Black Library or the Forgeworld Specialist Games team will ever swing back around to them again and they've had their moment in the sun with Titandeath so I'm going to develop more of the back story and own the Legio one bit of narrative at a time.
