A Blog documenting the collecting, assembly, painting and inevitable uncontrolled expansion of my Grymn warhost, and probably other meandering vaguely related nonsense.

Bah.

So I failed to get the first pictures up. I'm still working on getting used to my new toy.

Still waiting on my next batch of Grymn (Sally at Hasslefree tells me they're on their way.) That will let me do my second scout unit, but the rest will be part units. Going to order the rest of what I need to stop myself going mad.

I'm also thinking about walker possibilites.

Sorry there's a distinct lack of visible progress. I'm desperate to get on with this...

  2. What sort of Walkers were you thinking of using? Tall skinny ones, squat ones, two legs or more than two legs?

    Will they be more like piloted robots than gun platforms?

    Recently I've bought some Walkers from Critical Mass Games that look perfect for converting to 28mm (they are 15mm)...If you need any pix of various walkers, let me know (I am a bit of a walker fan).

    Oh...and get some pix up!

  3. For Walkers I'm thinking of something along the lines of the bastard child of an Eldar War Walker and a Space Marine Dreadnought...similar sort of build to the latter with the semi-open look of the former.

    Bank holiday here on thursday. Will hopefully by then have both my scout units done, and enough time to get some pictures where you can actually see the damn models through the blurring.

  4. Have you seen the Trad11 walker from Xabungle?...it has all the bulk of a dreadnought with a nice open style cockpit:

    There is a host of Xabungle stuff here that may be what you are looking for...I'd go for 1/100 scale for converting purposes:

    Just suggestions but well worth a look.
