[Archive] 07-29-2017 Uthers Legions of Hashut

Uther the unhinged:

OK Time for some more cd silliness. Having made one 'organic ’ Iron Daemon I could not just stop (need two for a Hashuts Wrath artillery train) and Grig needed a friend. So here is a second Iron Daemon counts as (Jabba Grig war beast or as the kids have called it Mrs Grig)







and together



Now if I have an Iron Daemons I need a counts as Magma cannon. By now you may have noticed that I had got hold of some tyrannid bitz (BIG bag cheap on ebay)(I love tyrannid bitz)., So here is an 'organic counts as magma cannon…







and of course then I need a counts as deathshrieker





Yes I know there is no crew yet but guns an/ monsters is more fun. They will come. Anyway all together now

Abecedar:

Love them. Great thinking outside the steel box.

Uther the unhinged:

Well here is my Artisans contest entry

at the risk of offending the ruinous powers

ALL BOW BEFORE HASHUT and Doctul Fronkensteins monster













Ghrask Dragh:

Brilliant

This one properly freaked freaked me out :o those heads man, they are like something from IT

Great stuff, scary as hell :hat off

Admiral:

Ahaha! Great job, very imaginative and neat attention to detail. This model finally confirms that Chaos Dwarfs Online is a long-running freakshow. :hat off

Uther the unhinged:

Feakshow, freakshow!!!

I would be offended if it was not such a complement.

Worryingly this is the last and possibly the most normal piece in my latest 2500 pt AoS force. I am waiting till it is painted before putting it up. That way I only have to explain/apologize once.

Also I reaaaaly want to make Doctul Froncenstein

Mwahahahaha

Oh dear. Note to self �?~No posting after wine�?T

Abecedar:

Ahaha! Great job, very imaginative and neat attention to detail. This model finally confirms that Chaos Dwarfs Online is a long-running freakshow. :hat off

Admiral
It is disturbing

Uther the unhinged:

Disturbing Abecedar? How can you say that? Look at his cute little face, sorry faces. Anyway we use daemons �?~souls�?T don�?Tt we? �?~Waste not. Want not�?T as my nan use to say. It would be a shame not to use the rest.

Jackswift:

I really liked this one and voted for it. Great scratch build. The amalgamation of mechanical and flesh just screamed golem and the use of the head bits were suitably frightening. What bits went into this monstrousity and do you have any WIP shots of it? :cheers

Uther the unhinged:

Dang. Was hoping to put up some wips but must have deleted th somehow.

Anyway the golem was fun and cheap. The back end was from a £1 dragon toy, the body cage and big claw from broken transformers (What am I going to do when the kids grow up?), the front legs from ninja turtles (Leonardo was already headless and missing a foot), the mechaical foot from another long dead toy. The arms were from a tyramnid bitz box with green stuff tentacles and an orc 40k claw. The necks just wire wrapped in tissue wrapped in paper thin gs. The faces, ah the faces, were gs made from bluestuff moulds of my LotR chess set. The red one killed Boromir, bad uruk.

Had a lot of fun making him. Sadly running out of broken toys fot the next gh. However there are several nearly finished bits and pieces that can be tweaked. Not going to be too nprmal by the look of things. Hey ho.

Jackswift:

Wow. Those sources are just awesome! And I thought I went outside the box for bits sometimes. Several sources you listed I wouldn’t even have thought of such as transformers. Going to have to try doing molds like you did with the faces. Ended up with a great and disturbing effect.

Uther the unhinged:

I don�?Tt know if you have kids but mine are well trained. There is a box where they put any briken bits of toy or model�?Tdaddys�?T warhammer box�?T. For animals there are sime fantastic toys out there, cheap for minis and lacking some datails but that is what bitz on ebay are for imo. Have fun

Admiral:

Having your kids store broken toys as hobby bitz. Now that is the ultimate manifestation of having kids mean you also get to play again. Sounds fantastic! :hat off

Uther the unhinged:

Okay, GH XXX is over so I can post!

I suppose my entry does need some explanation.

Well as I have said before their are several ways of explaining anything

1. The Truth

2 The TRUE Truth

3. Foul lies which will bring the wrath of Hashuts’ Lawyers upon your pathetic souls.

The truth is of courase true but Is That Enough?

The TRUE Truth relies upon the fact that truth is beauty and beauty is truth therefore the more beautiful explanation is of course the TRUE explanation.

The True Truth is explained on my other Thread an AOS Creation Myth



The pitiful truth is that I enjoyed making monsters for my Organic LoA army (see above). I wanted more monsters so needewd an allied army with monsters. This was harder than you might think. One son collects Khorne, Tzeetch, some Nurgle and Beastmen. My 8 yo aughter big bad mice (Skaven). What to do?

The answer was … Tamoukans’ Horde. There was no way the kids (or me could afford th FW minis) so I would not offend anyone. Also it fits fluff-wise with LoA. Of course it would have to be a chaos-dwarfified army. soooo…

It is NOT true that I just had a lot of Tyrannid bits lying around after doing some converting for my daughter. Any repeating of this foul calumny will be actionable by the aforementioned Lawyers of Hashut.

Now Piccys…

first Lord Kilain the Flesh Harrower on his jabber dragon (Tamourkhan)







then T’Sogoth Riders (bile trolls/trogoths with flame guns for counts as vomit)















T’Sogors (Plague ogres/ogors)









Greater Jabberling riders (Daemon pox riders)























All together now (without the hobgoblin tentacly thing riders counts as marauder horse men with javelins)

boyfights:

Those are unbelievably cool :smiley: I’m having fun painting but I miss modelling so much. I’m pretty sure GW has you to thank for finally selling me on Kill Team, hahaha

Admiral:

The more beautiful the explanation, the more true it must be. Haha! You have a way with words. The next Terry Pratchett? :cheers

Weird and wonderful creations! From the front shot, I couldn’t recognize the Tyranid parts on the converted Carnifex. This is not only well done and really imaginative, and not only is it fitting in great with the rest of your army paint-wise in particular, but it is truly Chaotic! Monstrously marvellous, Uther. Good job!

And I dare not speak to the Lawyers of Hashut… again. :hat off

Ditto.. Great Words

tjub:

Madness… In a good way. :slight_smile:

Fuggit Khan:

Such a bizarre and disturbing model, perfect for the dark lands.

Your imagination is really something!

:hashut

boyfights:

I finally got a chance to go through the rest of your blog and I just wanted to echo how awesome everything is! I can’t really even pick a favourite, but I’ve always had a major soft spot for those metal Gorkamorka grots so it’s probably the wolf riders :smiley: Orcbody Dwarfs are amazing, GW’s plastic orc/ks were always my favourite kit when I was younger and I’m trying to figure out how to squeeze a couple into my project as well :slight_smile: Thanks so much for sharing!!
