A large fleet of military and supply ships originating from the ports of Uzkulak have docked at the Isle of Albion, albeit in many more pieces than expected because of the heavy mists guarding the island. But despite the setbacks the sorcerer-prophet Hastack is determined in accomplishing his mission of “reuniting the long lost chaos dwarfs and overthrowing the island” given to him by Astrogoth himself. This task was really just an attempt at humor and a funny way to get Hastack killed but through extreme luck the sorcerer-prophet has already achieved many goals.
I started this army about April last after getting pretty excited from reading the blogs here, playing the games and procrastinating on lots of possible kitbashs. I’ve stolen many ideas and colourschemes here, not gonna lie.
Picture of the main army so far.
Macrocosm hobgoblins
centaurs
oldschoolminiature’s asscannon
Blunderbus unit and bolt thrower
Main force. I haven’t fully painted my command sets for the warriors and blunderbus yet but should be pretty soon.
This is my Iron Daemon that I kitbashed from gunpla parts and my childhood Thomas the train engine toy, I greenstuffed the beard and eyebrow on.
The Chaos Dwarfs incharge of the Helm forces, their army is currently on vacation at the beach and can’t be seen at the moment but they’re definitely around.
I’ll eventually tidy this blog up and take pictures that aren’t on my bedside table but I felt I aught to get off my butt and repay the forum after months of perusing the blogs and discord.

Wow, what a reveal. The variety of ranges alone make this such a treat, to say nothing if their brushwork. Can’t wait to see more.

Got around to the finishing touches of
@Nergling 's chaos battering ram from Ramshackle Games. Lots of fixing up I had to do but was definitely worth it, real beautiful kit.
This is gonna be crewed by the classic bloodbowl chorfs but GW still hasn’t shipped them. I think I’ll work on some infantry in the meantime.

That’s great mate! It was my first time sculpting anything and I learned a lot about trying to make things 3D in a single plane for casting. Curtis did a nice job of moulding it, however I think the roof pieces needed to be larger as there seem to be some gaps between them. If you wanted to fill them in, basic matchsticks would be perfect as that’s what I made the roof tiles from. I also put some small hinges on the apex of the roof of mine to make it more interesting.

Oh btw, this is the first one that has been spotted in the wild as far as I am aware, so big up to you!

Completion of the Macrocosm dark tower for Zodd’s painting thread. Gonna paint up a few more shields and stick some OSM crossbowmen onto it. I think I might’ve thinned the enamel wash a bit too much.
Anyway this was a really great build. I was a bit over a year late or so to buy one but the guy from Macrocosm casted it up for me despite the mould being damaged, really great guy.
