The Bull and the Lizard.

Τhis is a Bellower.This is the last model for the Bull regiment.

Brother Sergeant Severus Helgarth.

Name: Severus Helgarth

Chapter: Angels Sanguine
Company: 4th (War Angels)
Rank: 8th's Squad Assault Sergeant

Brother Sergeant Severus is a recent addition to the 4th Company's roster. What is setting the Sergeant appart from his brethren is his face.

The Gene Legacy, or curse for some certain Heretics, of Sanguinius follows the steps, deeds and death of every brother of the Angels Sanguine Chapter. No one knows what terrible changes the ''flaw'' had inflicted on the Chapter that forces them to mask their faces in the presence of others. No one is an exception except for Sergeant Severus.

Brother Severus is clean of any flaw, he is the only one permited to show his face and usually he is the one to represent the Chapter to war counsils, not many chapters are able to trust a  fellow Astartes 
who doesn't show his bare face and eyes .Severus shows not only his face but his bright honnest eyes.Eyes free from the madness of the flaw.Offcourse there are objections. How could a Veteran Sergeant replace his Captain in such important meetings? Soon enough they find out Severus' tactical brilliance.Τhe Assault plans of brother Severus are legentary and he is responsible for many victories.Urza Primus , Sung Me Three and Ultramar are only few of the great Battles the Sergeant have bring Victory with his Surgical and Lightninig Assaults.
(So much for the Fluff) 

You can replace an Assault Veteran Sergeant with Brother Sergeant Severus Helgarth for +40 points.

Special Rules:

- A Sergeant not a Captain: Severus is a Sergeant with tallent on strategy. His command is absolute over his brothers and even a Captain will heed his words. Sergeant Severus will never disobey his Superior Officer nor will he act on his own when his superiors are in command. Sergeant Severus has Ld.10 and can confer it to every Angel Sanguine model. If you choose to field Sergeant Severus you can choose ONLY librarians as your HQ choices.

- Cool Temper: Sergeant Severus will never lose his temper no matter what. Sergeant Severus will never benefit from the Litourgies of battle.and Furious Charge Special rule. In addition, his Squad will never suffer from the Red Thirst Special Rule.

 Ι am not good with ''Lettering'' but that was the best i could do.

 Hmmmm that reminds me an 16 bit SNES game.

Ogre Number Five


Have I ever told you that I love those Ogres?
I know it's not a competitive army, I know that my only chance of victory is for me to roll with some only-6s-dice, but I don't care.
I paint those models only because I like them, everything else is just trivial.

I am not such a huge fun of WHFB game, I don't intend to play anyway. The game and rules are fine but the prospect of playing with this highly competitive community of nuggers and haters gives me second (and third) thoughts. I don't mind losing, losing is a fact of the game and it's fine by me, in fact I welcome it. What scares the crap out of me is the prospect of not having a good time playing.

So, no ETC, no competitive games with total strangers. If I ever play it will be with few friends in the Battle Bunker Club.

Τhe Salamander and the Slayer.

I just love terminators! I remember my first game back in the third edition with a list sporting 10 terminators armed with Storm Bolters and Power Fists. It was a disaster of course, and my first games were crushing defeats, but still the Tactical Dreadnought Armoured breathren are still one of my favourite models.




In contrast to the ultimate protection a Terminator enjoys, a Slayer has none. As a matter of fact he needs none. He is a Slayer and his job isn't to survive the battle. His job is to slay the biggest enemy, the scariest creatures, or die trying. This model is another from my roommate's army. It took me only a couple of hours to complete.

A crusher with Extra ''Tallents''


The Ogres BattleForce is an ideal way to start an Ogre's Kingdom Army. It gives you a regiment of 6 Bulls with full comand, a regiment of 4 IronGuts with full command also, a regiment of 4 LeasBelchers and a Gnoblar regiment. A great value for points box.

Of cource with it you get dozens of small bits to customize your own models and give character to your regiments.

So let me introduce you to my Bull's Regiment Crusher, Mr Male. The A Male! Mr A male as his name suggests is the one who mates with the female Ogres. He is the pretty boy (If you can call an Ogre pretty that is) who mates with the widows of the Ogres who died in battle or hunt. This helps the tribe to grow when a raid doesn't go so well. With this role on the tribe society the males don't have to fight over the females of the late slain Ogres and this way the loss doesn't increase.

Mr Male has to protect his pretty face in order to be desireable. So, when he goes to war he is clad with a fine and rust-free Helmet in order to avoid Face-scars that will ruin his image. Also, he protects his genitals with a clean Gutplate.You see, Mr A Male is good as far his ''talents'' are intact. His private Gnoblars are taking great care of this particular wargear keeping it clean (The fear of an infection is great).

The rest of his weapons are not so important to his role as A Male so it can be as rustfull as the rest of its tribe.



So that was Mr A Male! His Helmet is a spare helmet from the IronGuts sprue.



This Tatoo signifies his role in the Tribe.



His Gutplate has some extra chainmail armour to better protects his "talents".

Brettonians an old Project with strange Fluff.

Αnother long forgoten project this time, Brettonians. I own a largre and greatly unpainted army. I had painted few models but I was not pleased with the result. I put the project ''on hold'' for a couple of years and I came up with this painted pegasus knight today.

I am pleased with the results but I found out in despair that I don't remember where the shields are.

For all of you who are familiar with the Warhammer 40.000 lore I am sure that you know the Dark Angels Heresy. You know that when the Primarch Lion el Johnson returned from the great crusade he was met not in glory but with missiles. The gods of chaos in order to save the traitor Dark Angel companies teleported them and scattered them in space and time.



So here is my fluff, a Dark Angel Traitor Company born and bred in Caliban, old brothers of the ''Order''. After the destruction of the planet Caliban the Dark gods teleported them in the planet of the WarHammer Fantasy World. The company kept the old colours of the order's ''Dark Green'' and the old livery. Now this Company of Astartes serves as an elite strike force under the orders of the Brettonian King.


So, the Knights of the realm and the Pegasus Knights will be clad in the Dark Angels Green and the Heroes and Grail Knight will be clad in Black.

I know full well that an army looking like that will be an eyesore for every Fluff-Nazzi Geek out there but I think I' ll manage.



More details about the Fluff as i paint and present more models.

26....27....28 Jump Packs

Τhe Angels Sanguine Project is still alive and kicking. Another model is added to the Army, this time a melta gun will bring the so much needed Anti Tank firepower the army needs.
Apart from my 1500 and 1750 competitive list I paint, I still have in mind a ''Descent of Angels'' roster with no less than 40 Jump Packers. This model is the 28th Jump pack equiped model, characters not included, so I still have 12 to go. After the completion of this ''B'' Project I am planning to do a Full Death Company 1750l list.
So I still have work to do.
