Terrain for Mordheim - Building and Priming

This is the first post for the hobby-a-day project. I'll refrain from making reference to that in the future but as this being the 1st I thought it appropriate.

I built the GW Temple of Skulls and repaired the Dreadstone Tower.

Construction of the temple was quite easy. It just involved putting together the pylons and adding three large skulls. For the tower, I had to reglue the top floor. That one doesn't seem to have a good joint to glue too and I may need to add something again to strength it.

I primed both the temple and the tower. I also primed some fence pieces from both the GW graveyard and fence packs. Lastly, I've included a sneak peek of the Tuesday blog entry.

100th Post - A Giant Milestone

Ok, maybe not. But I do have giants - GW Giants. Here is a collection of some of the giants GW has made through the years. I have included a Pit Fighter and Ogre in the front to give some perspective on size. The big one in the middle is a Forgeworld giant and the one to his right is the earliest GW (Citadel) giant I own. 

More info on Citadel giants can be found here.

Zombie and Black Dragons

Ok, enough of my blabbering. Here are some pictures of the new GW Zombie and Black Dragons. Both very are nice.

You may have noticed I changed the positions of the wings. Though I liked the look of the wings on the giant bat thing, I thought the wing configuration on the dragon was not very menacing. To me, it look like it was holding up some pants. So, I just switched the wings around and angled them up.

I left the rider off the Black Dragon as I want him to be multipurpose. 

New Skaven Army Book

The thing that always has drawn me to Warhammer Fantasy has been the oddball contraptions various armies get. Chaos Dwarves, Orcs and Gobbs, and especially Skaven all had great war machines. With the release of the new Skaven book it seems like there are more great Skaven weapons of mutual destruction then ever before. I put a very quick review on the TMP: http://theminiaturespage.com/boards/msg.mv?id=182489

Nurgle Plague Tower

I started this last year but it got put aside. Since I was taking some pictures, I thought I would toss these online.
Yes, you do see some Tyranids and Romans in the background.

Next up for Nurgle will be some pictures old school demon vehicles and this finished off.
