Weekly Finds #93

I've got the house to myself today and have managed not to spend half of it sleeping... just a quarter of it. Which means I've had time to build miniatures and explore the interwebz.

In the Name of the Inquisition... by Dan Harden from What's New Today - Grey Knights and allied cannon fodder Imperial Guard by Koen Cambre. The heavy weathering on the Guard contrasts nicely with the Grey Knights. However, it is refreshing to see some Grey Knights that aren't crisp and clean with Koen adding in some minor weathering. The weathering along with the bases helps tie the two forces in together far more effectively than the colour palette.

Wreck Age Table Remake (3) by Brian from A Gentleman's One - I'm sure the interwebz is familiar with Brian's terrain making skills. He is the mastermind behind The Heroes of Armageddon display table and the Killzone tables. If you are looking for inspiration for scenery his blog is probably one of the first places I'd direct you to... plus it is free unlike the Forge World team.

How to Make Plasticard Orc Shields by Gareth from Tale of Painters - A simple tutorial that produces some unique results. As can be seen on Gareth's Big Un Mob. Can also use this tutorial to produce some Black Orc styled shields.

It's Flicker Thursday by Dan Harden from What's New Today - An amazing Contemptor Dreadnought by Patrick Schimak. Can see more of Patrick's amazing collection on the Games Workshop Flickr page.

40k Metrics: Building Better Devastator by Nikephoros from Bringer of Victory - I'm a big fan of Nikephoro's metric posts. This one particularly caught my attention as I'm a big Iron Warriors fan. And for me Havocs fit into the imagery of Iron Warriors just as much as tanks with big guns. So it was a pleasant surprise to find out that Havocs carrying Autocannons are kings at killing light mech.
