Hm. I suppose I should stick up one last post before I abandon this entirely. Just as an update. A lastdate, if you will. Anyway.

As you may have guessed, nothing in this blog ever came to anything. Not even the blog. The Lion forgot about it (and, if I'm honest so did I), and the Hobbit went off to join the Army, giving up Warhammer on the way. So that went well.

The Steel Wardens never materialised. The Hobbit had no firm plans for anything, and so that project sank into the abyss. Neither did the Imperial Fists 5th or Eldar. Or Tau. Or Space Wolves. Ho hum.

The Chimera turned out to be an un-rebuildable waste of a tenner. That ended up being cut up for scrap and bitz. So a vaguely happy ending, if not for the Chimera. Bits of it now adorn most of the armoured units in my army.

I think the Lion has given up this uber-expensive hobby of ours. I don't care enough to ask.

On a lighter note, the 241st Catachan go from strength to strength. A new Chimera and  most of a Wyvern (its been a bugger to finish) take the place of the useless Valkyrie (which may reappear) and the Medusa, which fell to bits. I hate Forge World. I do, however, have a Chimera chassis now going spare, so we'll see what that comes to. A Manticore also sits in reserve, as well as a converted Leman Russ with a Chimera turret from the scrapped one, which I have no idea what the hell to do with. A 5 man squad of Militarum Tempestus Stormtroopers has also joined my ranks. They look awesome.


iPod camera, sue me.

That's it. Nothing more to say but thanks for the views. Bye.

Chimera Rebuild Part 1.5: Joint Project.

'sup Blogger!

Yeah, as the Hobbit said in his blog, this rebuild is actually going to be a joint project between me and the Hobbit.

The reason for this is that the Steel Wardens'll need a cool-ass transport and what better than a Chimera that we have both been played a part in!?

We're still getting the details sorted out, but I was thinking that Hobbit could handle the painting and I do the rebuild.

Kanledor Steel Wardens joint project

Hola bloggers

Me and Exiled Man are now doing a conjoined army. I did mention this a couple of days ago. There are already models involved on this project. They are a chimera,  a command squad and some cadians.

Chimera Rebuild: Part 1 - Prologue

'sup Blogger, it's your favourite procrastinator, Exiled Man

As you may have noticed from the title, I'm starting a bit of a series, albeit a rather irregular one.

A couple of days ago, someone came to our Warhammer club with a list of cheap models one of their friends relatives was selling off after their son had failed to really get into the hobby.
Nothing on the list really interested me, except a last gen Guard Chimera for £10. Being a tank nutter, I thought it through for all of 4 seconds and put my name down.

Yes, it was crap.

Don't laugh.

Whoever built it must have been incapable of reading instructions. Side panels were glued upside down, the tracks barely fit and the hull was a mess. I had half a mind to throw it in the bin, but decided not to, figuring it would at least make good blog material.

So, from today, I will be starting a new series, charting my path as I rebuild the damn thing. Without instructions. Doubtless, my new project will be filled with frustrations and stoppers but what the hell, I need another Chimera.

Stay tuned,

Exiled Man
