Thank you,
I thought of hexagonal bolt heads, and figured it would fit perfectly with squats.
I have access to a 3D printer so they are done in PLA, with inserts for the infantry base.
I've even made elongated hexes for use with the bikes, they too have slots for the bike base.


There are ready made plywood ones for those of you who are interested. I used those for my LatD cult. Can't remember the name of the firm right now, but it's in my blog somewhere...

But, you say, that can't be 1000 points. Correct! What's a chaos army without some daemonic support.

This army looks really intimidating on the table. Respawning Infantry, the ability to Teleport/Portal in the entire army. A 3BP (MW) gun.
All vehicles have been sculpted and printed by me. It was a rush job and I could have gone for more detail and a higher resolution print, but in the interest of getting the army done in a timely fashion, I settled for this. Although I wonder if the vehicles aren't a little bit to big.

Next up, either Orks or Space Wolves.

Also my hundredth post, that's almost an average of 10 post per year. Sorry for the spam guys :P

Very nice!

I am also I must admit, very interested in how you plan to paint your SPace Wolves.

Finally, after an almost 6 months involuntary hiatus (back surgery), I'm back with the next installment.

ORKS

Trying to take advantage of the fact that you get a discount for big mobs and that size does matter (when it comes to Orks), I chose to go with 3 Big mobs. Loosing an activation but gaining resilience. Six 4+ RA Stompas will take some time to chew through for most opponents.

Next up Either Space Wolves or Eldar
Most likely Space Wolves as I have all the miniatures available.

At a blazing tempo I have now managed to finish another mini Army.

Space Wolves

This will most likely be the worst of all my minigeddon armies. The lack of shooting and slow movement will make for a hard army to win with.
But for larger games I have some extra units on the way.

Attachment:
File comment: 1. Stormfang, counts as Thunderbolt in my army. 3d printed of my own model, turned out pretty well in my opinion.
2. Land Raiders (cause we all now they are the BEST ;-).
3. Drop pod, planing to make a list of more or less full drop army.

Next will be either Eldar (if i can rustle up a Farseer base), IG (tallarn) or Tyranids.

Excellent stuff!

Both the SW & the orks are superb. The basing on the SW is spot on!

Feels like I'm necroing my own posts here, but I have an actual update :o

Imperial Guard (not Astra Militarium because they are stupid).

Just a one and a half year of inaction (I'm sad to say I've not managed to paint anything other of consequence either). But I'm on a roll now. I've already finished the infantry in the Eldar force (and that's usually the time consuming part for me), only 9 tanks left for that to be finished (but I'm lacking som turrets). And I've started painting my Tyranids (but perhaps I'll invest in some walking Exocrine proxies from winterforge instead of the old "slug"-style Exocrines). After that who knows. Maybe Chaos Cultists or Mechanicus?
