New Bases for my Inquisition!


Hello!

This past weekend I attended Maul in the Mall here in Cleveland with my Grey Knights, and I preformed very well; Best General went to me and my Inquisition. However, my paint score suffered greatly due to my lack of proper bases and a display board and that cost me best overall by three points. Here is a picture of before.

As you can see I didn't have much on them. So, I sought to rectify this ASAP. I have a nice alien invasion theme on my purifiers and dreadnoughts, so I decided to switch all my purifier bases to my henchmen and order a terminator and flyer-base sized base from www.secretweaponminiatures.com. Here they are completed:


My entire army hast his motif now and everything is based in this theme. They look awesome. The only thing left is a proper display board being assembled by Tony here on the blog!

I'll be posting about my new Space Wolf face-lift shortly, but this was the most pressing issue I've recently completed.

Adepticon!

Adepticon is coming up next month, and since I'm going....I guess I should paint! Originally I had planned on taking my DE, but real life has hit my painter realllllllly hard in the past few weeks and they will not be completed.

So enter the Inquisition! This will be an ambitious project, as I have roughly 26 days to paint, base, and build a display board for this:
List:
Coteaz
Ordo Xenos Inquisitor with rad+pychotroke grenades, psyker: hammerhand, 3 skulls
3 x 1 Techmarines with orbital bombardment (2 skulls split between 2)
5 death cult assassins + 5 crusaders
5x3 acolytes w/ las/plas razorbacks
3 stormravens, tl multimelta, tl plasma cannon, searchlight


This is a rather unconventional GK list, but it is very fluffy and I feel like it covers my bases as far as tournaments go. It has a lot of high str shooting (multi meltas, lascannons, plasma guns, orbital lance), a lot of anti infantry (mindstrikes, orbital barrage, plasma cannons), and 6 troops. Plus it can have mobile scoring running in ravens or static gunline tactics.

Also, psychobroke grenades + 5 death cult assassins + rad grenades + hammerhand = Damn!

So follow this blog to check my progress, I will be updating as often as I can between now and Adepticon.
