Turning of the (Stone) Tide

"What are young men to rocks and mountains?"

Janissa Stonetide has been a bit of a project. This model was originally released during the game's first edition, and like some other early trollbloods it is small in stature - perhaps more so than any other model in the original line except Grissel. Getting it to match with the rest of the army required a full rebuild of the model's body.

Volley’ed and Thundered

No one accuses the gunner of maudlin affection for anything except his beasts and his weapons. He serves as least three jealous gods–his horse and all its sadlery and harness; his gun, whose least detail of efficiency is more important than men’s lives; and, when these have been attended to, the never-ending mystery of his art commands him.

Today's subject is the two Trollkin artillery crew units, consisting of three models for each of the "Thumper" and "Pummeler" guns.

War Beasts? More Beasts!

"It's like the four elements, right. You've heard of the four elements? Except here there's only three elements. And those three elements are - Metal, Lightning, and Smashing Things!"

Today we have three more builds for the troll warbeast stable - the Slag Troll, Storm Troll, and the newest heavy option, the Dire Troll Mauler Brawler. Let's dig right in.

Call The Warlocksmith

"What is there about fire that’s so lovely? No matter what age we are, what draws us to it?’ Beatty blew out the flame and lit it again. ‘It’s perpetual motion; the thing man wanted to invent but never did."

As with doomshaper, I recently finished built the 2nd versions of Grissel and Horgle, but I'll also be covering the builds we did for Grissel1 and Horgle1 here since they weren't posted previously.

Shaping Up Some Doom

 "I'm a wizard, mind you. This place is kept by powerful gods and spirits of kings. Harm my flesh and you will have to deal with the dead!"

The three Doomshaper models weren't all done at the same time, but I'm going to cover them in a single post since these were straightforward conversions, just head-swaps and some minor repairs.

Painting a Beast 09 Conversion

Recently I had the pleasure of painting a converted Khador Beast 09. I decided upon a color scheme of white, red and gray. Let's see how we did...

Number Of The Beast (it's nine)

Some years back, my old comrade-in-arms The Hungry Kithkar (THK) built me a Beast 09 conversion out of spare parts. Being a frequent Sorscha player, it was a perfect addition to my Khador army, particularly since at the time I was dead broke and didn't feel like spending $40 on the blister box.
