Callidus Assassin and future projects

It’s another Bank Holiday weekend which has meant that I have had some time to get a few more projects finished (and started).  The first thing to talk about is my recently completed Callidus Assassin.  This miniature only took a few days to finish and I’m happy with the result.  I used to have a metal version of this miniature way back in the 90’s when she first came out (As well as the Vindicare Assassin), so when GW released the new plastic Assassins last year I decide that I would get one of them to use in my Blood Angels army.  Here’s the finished result…

Following on from my recent visit to Warhammer World I have now assembled my Grak and Crumbleberry miniatures.  As soon as it stops raining (and it’s less windy) I’ll undercoat them read to get painted.  I really like the look of these two miniatures and look forward to trying them out in some future Blood Bowl games.  Although they can be used in any team I think I’ll mostly use them with my Dwarfs, speaking of which…

Grak & Crumbleberry assmebled and ready.

As you may have seen I’ve been working on a Deathroller for my Dwarf team.  Although I like the look of the Forge World one I was put off by its cost (£38!!!) and so I decided to try and find a cheaper way to add one to my team.  When GW released the Kharadron Overlords there was the perfect opportunity to use an element from the GrundstokGunhauler set as a spherical Deathroller, so that is what I did.  Using my discount, I bought the kit and made myself my very unique looking Deathroller (and also save myself some money).   I like to imagine that my Deathroller works much like this with a Dwarf running around inside, trying to squish anyone who gets in his way!

A closer look at the Deathroller

I’ll more than likely paint my Deathroller up when I do Grak & Crumbleberry, so with a bit of luck they will be finished by the end of the week.  For those of you wondering what I’m going to do with the rest of the Grundstock Gunhauler, well I’m currently thinking of using it as a piece of scenery.  A downed Gunhauler crashed against some rocks and left to the elements could look cool.
