Hail Hydra

I spent the early part of this week putting together my Hydra model. This turned out to be a major glue and green stuff project as the model did not want to fit together well. It makes me appreciate how good the GW plastic kits are.

Construction in Progress

Heads of Many Parts

For some reason the model came with two of the heads in three parts and it being a metal kit it weighs a far old amount. After a few days of construction the beast was finally tamed and the paint job started. In keeping with the other dragons it will be a blue base but this time rather than leaving most of the work to be done by the washes I am starting with a more solid blue base.

Start of the Rough Blocking

Whilst I was working away on the Hydra I also managed to finish another unit of Blade Dancers ( only one more to go ! ) and also add two more heroes. That will complete the heroes on foot with only the mounted alternatives to go once I break open the Cold One Riders kits.

Third Troop Complete

Mage

Assassin

Hidden Fireball

Needs a Nail Clipper

Along with all that I have also put together and started to paint the Gargoyle figures. These are made from a combination of Daemonettes of Slaanesh and Tyranid Gargoyle Brood from GW. They went together with surprisingly little effort with only some minor filing and plastic glue.

Winged Horrors

As this is another Bank Holiday weekend ( hooray ) I have increased my normal batch of 5-6 models on the go at once up to 11 so I will need to keep my head down to get as much done as possible.
