Genestealer Cult Land Train

genestealer cults, land train, oldhammer

Oh my how busy I have been recently! Caring duties, union activities, an ongoing rat invasion that we just cannot seem to shift, buying and selling transformers on the internet to try and bring in some money, and of course firework season (in our house we call it canine nervous breakdown season). Eveything is fithy, many things are broken. The outside is moving inside via giant lurcher paws. What an Autumn! Instead of my usual three painting projects I am down to a single project, plus I am slowly working on the coaching inn from WD 143, and working through my giant tub of sprues to turn them into miniatures ready for painting or selling.

This is a land train that I picked up on Kickstarter a while back. It looked great on the internet but up close I wasn’t that impressed. The 3d printing grain was far too large, leading to smudged designs and a generally cheap look. The plastic didn’t stick properly with superglue, pva glue, plastic cement, or carpenter’s glue. Bits are always threatening to break off. In general I would not recommend it. But when I saw it I remembered a piece of art and some flash fiction from way back, about some raiders who attack a caravan and get a nasty chaos genestealer flavoured surprise. So I had to have it! Since this was made there is now an official Warhammer equivalent, the Cargo-8 Ridge Crawler. Though a Ridge Crawler and two carriages would be over 120 quid!

A revolution brewing…

Somehow I’ve been dragged into Genestealer Cults. Not sure how that happened, but here’s a biophagus…

Painted this one up for the annual challenge! I’ve been very tempted recently to start a Genestealer Cult properly, using some of the nice modern figures, but one look at the leadpile (and the plastic pile) reminds me that I’ve got a lot of projects on already. It was fun to paint though, I will do some more one day…

Finally finished painting up the Genestealer Cult from the Deathwatch Overkill boxset.  These are lovely modern miniatures with lots of fidddly detail but not so much that its overwhelming.  I found these tricky to paint, but I think that mostly I did alright.  I painted this army in three blocks, months apart, and I think that sometimes it shows – the finishing isnt as good on some of the earlier stuff.  I might add a rockcrusher (or whatever they’re called) to this army.  I also saw some bikes and quad bikes that are due for adding to the Genestealer Cults army, and those are pretty good too.  As if I don’t already have enough to paint!
