**Lord Aldades** :
Roightie, time to start progressing the paintworks in order to prevent a smattering of postings.
Won`t be to much action here at the beginning, as I`m still cleaning up oldies, but at times I do manage to get something painted in between, which I`ll be placing in here till the full extent of my modest force has been overhauled.
To start off: the Hobgoblin Bolt Thrower
and many more pictures:

Yes, I`m a fan of the old red and blue Dawi Zharr colour scheme…

**Admiral** :
I like the colours too. Good thing about going with grey lava bases, since unlike Goblin Green they don’t risk to put a colourful model out of harmony.

**Lord Aldades** :
Being all thumbs in this part of the hobby, I never the less endeavoured to sculpt and build one of these scenery thingies for Warhammer Storms of Magic for my Chaos Dwarf sorcerers to use:

**Abecedar** :
would your fire-spitters do the job for the new K’daii maybe. Good bases, I’ve decided not to try lava yet (don’t think I’m good enough) and I really like your Khazek’s cloak’s lower edge

**Lord Aldades** :
Nah, they are way to small to be a monstrous firebound monstrosity for my tastes, topping barely an elf.
I do have some models `on the eye` though for the k`daii, I have a bunch of MegaMiniatures 40mm genies and djinns lying around here _somewhere_, just thinking how to change them to more fiery thingies, probably greenstuffing flames on them (I did get trained in that with my Fulcrum hehe)

**Lord Aldades** :
These are the models I`m planning on using for my K’daii
Lot of sculpting will be needed, as one even lost an arm somewhere over the years, and the fang lady will become the unit champion.
Will take a while before they are ready though, life and thingies

**Lord Aldades** :
_ **The Tribute to First of Many** _
No, this isn`t a tribute to the Borg or some other mass alien invasion race from movie X or serie Y.
This is a tribute to the single most important figure in any wargames army, wether it be fantasy, sci-fi or historical.
He is included in every force, or enjoy a happy old day in a relegated borderpost called display cabinet.
No, I`m not talking about the General. Nor the Standard Bearer, and it ain`t the Mythical Hero either.
First of Many is the valiant soul that fights shoulder to shoulder with the troops. A Thousand Death’s are his destiny, he will march many miles, and run many more.
He will face off against cavalry, dragon or tank alike. He will dodge bullets, evade laser beams, survive artillery barrages and block sword strokes.
He will gather around his flag, and will be prepared to lay down his life for the ultimate goal in order to secure victory for your forces.
He is First of Many, he is that very first Rank and File model you paint up in order to test the colour scheme of the army to come…

Aaaah, the good old footsloggers! The infantry, queen of battles 🙂
Good painting style, really 5th edition and that’s a good thing :wink:
Great skin, I like it so much. Just yellow needs to be improved.
Longing to see the other 99 🙂

**Admiral** :
Nice Gatekeeper and Firespitters. I like those little themes. Will they be wound counters when playing?
The warrior looks really good. That’s a 5th edition colour scheme if I ever saw one. I like the bright colourfulness even though I’m aiming for a dark and dour style. A little criticism: There is a visible mould line on his hat, the moustache don’t gets under his nose (the upper lip look a tad strange), and the yellow lightning bolt on his shield could do with one more cover with yellow (or white and then yellow on top of it). I hope your sort the issues out on him and his many comrades in arms, because if you do, this will be a fantastic army.

**Lord Aldades** :
Firespitters prolly will be `just` Blunderbusses
Yellow is a bitch, it`s my personal Stairs, but it ain`t a mold line on the top of the hat, it`s the darker red as he has been painted half half with lighter layers (one front, one back)

**Admiral** :
OK. I’ve found that the trick with yellow is to prepaint the surface with some two-three-four layers of white for the yellow to sit smoothly upon. (Gryphonne Sepia works well as shade.)

**Lord Aldades** :
Chaos Dwarf Insanity week 0: the Army List
Well, no matter what I rant or bitch about on this little corner of mine in the webwide world, I`m a clubman by heart.
So when of our clubmembers suggested at first, then concretisised the plan to run a small scale Warhammer tournament the comming 12th of february, I jumped on board and pledged to join in. An army of 2000 points of Chaos Dwarfs would take the field...
... and then I realised that as usual, I didn`t think about the practical side of things. My forces are in shambles, less then a dozen has been restaurated to battleworthy status with the rest in various stages of stripping, cleaning, greenstuffing and more of the likes.
Of course, being sidetracked in the meantime with things like Brushslave where I converted a `Dawi Zharr Present Delivery Service` for didn`t help either, so now I`m faced with the task of painting 46 models in about 25 days… a ratio I barely manage, so it`ll be a tough one.
For such, I drew up an army list `placeholder`, a list to focus on completing before I *moght* have time to add the extra bit and bob to make it actually more playable and definitly more into `my style` of gaming. I`ll take large blunderbuss blocks anytime over wizards for one, but need breaks law for now.
The resutling list, which is seen below, is drawn from the Legion of Azgorh list. There wehere ideas to play with the Indy GT, but I personally refused this, we FINALLY have an official list now, so they better well start get used to it. Okay, technically we have two, the Ravening Hordes list is still official as well, but that`s a detail and I never could repaint as much models as my all conquering relic of days gone by in a month time...
The `List for Now` tallies up to 1965 points at current, as I still have some playspace that way for some items and stuff, and is focussed on one large Blob of Doom, in order to set up a painting factory row for the old and venerable plastic warriors.
Lord - 320 pts
Sorcerer Prophet level 4 Wizard with Channeling Staff, Ironcurse Icon, Seed of Rebirth and the Lore of Hashut
Hero - 180 pts
Deamonsmith level 2 with Dispel Scroll and The Terrifying Mask of Eee! wielding the Lore of Metal
Hero - 165 pts
Castellan with Dark Mace
Hero - 180 pts
Castellan with Black Hammer of Hashit and Stone Mantle
Core - 527 pts
30 Infernal Guard warriors with great weapon, full command and Razor Standard
Core - 198 pts
11 Infernal Guard with Hailshot Blunderbuss
Special - 175 pts
3 K`daai Fireborn including Manburner
Rare - 220 pts
Hellbound Dreadquake Mortar
As you can see, not to much soup or great ideas in that one, but like I said, it`ll have to do the job of being `manageable to get painted` for starting again.
And if I keep nagging by best matey Centurion, to get his Beastmen (yep, the ones from the Retunr of the Relics batrep ages ago) aslo battleworthy so we can duke it out in classic style with the Next Generation…

**Lord Aldades** :
To Mordheim!
Heroes of the Dawi Zharr
Titan Wargames is a company with a small range of Chaos Dwarf models for skirmishing. Read: Mordheim. I ordered there warband set a few weeks ago, and started painting up some of the models to serve in my army as characters for the Insanity Project.
These models are great sculpts, with nice detailing and not to many flash and extensions that required clean up. And it has a noce female blunderbuss lass that will make a great unit champion or castellan to go into that bunch.
**Thorgrim Kindleflame**
Master of the forges and wielder of the flame of Hashut in the temple of the Clan Vongalazthag, Thorgrim seeks ways in the old world to intensify his fiery magic before the Curse of Stone starts to overtake him.
A sorcerer for my forces, this model comes with a flame dancing on his hand and a staff. He`ll serve as the Sorcerer Prophet in the initial army.
The Blue Guy behind him is a rebased Horrorclix renamed `Hexie`. Hexie`s job on the battlefield is to take position next to enemy, you guessed it, remain in play Hexes to remind my swiss cheese I call a brain that there is one active…
**Kurgarth Steelbeard**
Castellan in the Clan, Kurgarth leads the men with valor while wielding his magical mace to smite the foes and enslave the lesser species.
This bloke will lead the large unit of Warriors in the force that is being prepared for the 12th of february
**`Fiery Feisty Fridhilde`**
Nobody knows the true name of this ravenhaired Thane that leads regiments of blunderbusses on the field of battle, but the enemy has come to know her as the Black Widow Of the Badlands.
The sexy Thane will command the small blunderbuss unit that will guard the mortar in the army. Armed with the Black mace of Hashut, she should be able to take care of enemy fliers that try and take out the mighty war machine.

**Borador** :
Looking good, especially your 1980’s models (but I am biased anyway so don’t mind that comment to much ;P)
The models by Baggronor (he runs titan wargames ;)) look very nice as well, original choice of colours!!
