<br />
So this is the first post since last October. It has been the longest absence from the blog since myself and Zebulon started it. Now this isn't because we have stopped hobbying or anything. I just think we've found we have less time than we maybe used to have. Speaking for myself I know I probably have less time in which to hobby and so the time required to take photo's and write blog posts I've probably felt is better spent actually hobbying.<br />
<br />
So this leads me to a conversation I had with Zebulon about a week ago. What to do with this blog. Well firstly we aren't going to shut it down. We've been doing this for almost 10 years! (First post was in August 2009 for anyone interested). Now Zebulon has his own Instagram (link on the side of the page) and suggested that we make that the new regular home of SotA and retire the blog. I didn't want to take that approach in regards to retiring the blog. So we have set up an Instagram for the blog and I've set up my own account separate to the one for the blog. These and Zebulon's own account will effectively function as our means of posting regular updates on projects we're working on. If you want to follow us on there then these are the names to search for:<br />
<br />
Zebulon: @zeb_sota or ZebulonXIII<br />
Blackmane: @blackmane91<br />
The Blog: @signoftheaquila<br />
<br />
If you have Instagarm then why not follow us. I hope we'll see you over there. As for the blog it won't be going anywhere. Instead myself and Zebulon have agreed that I will primarily look after it going forward. I'm hoping I'll be able to achieve a couple of posts a month (probably posted sometime over a weekend). While it's not a great deal of output these posts will be 'finished' project posts by which I mean finished a unit/scenery piece/etc as opposed to work in progress posts. Those will be the kind of thing I'll be posting to Instagram going forwards.<br />
<br />
So I hope we'll see some of you join us on Instagram and I hope we'll still see you here from time to time.<br />
<br />
As always thanks for taking the time to have a look.<br />

<br />
I've been noodling around with some terrain ideas for AoS (if you not seen my previous post) and through a bit of trial and error I came up with an idea for a magic alter.<br />

It's was cast in epoxy resin in a 40mm square jewlery mould. The bottom half had Carroburg Crimson added to it for the colour and the top was painted in screamer pink. The whole thing was dry brushed in Emperors Children. The bottom half was agitated whilst drying to give a bubbling feel. The top half had the middle pulled up whilst it was curing to give a support in the middle to leave a gap.</div>

Hi all,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Im back with another terrain project I'm working on. My gaming group is having a bit of an AoS renaissance as they are doing a Tale of 4 Warlords log. As our club was largely 40k orientated we have lots of terrain for 40k, but not as much variety for AoS. So I've set to work tinkering on some bits and bobs for us. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
My main thought is AoS isn't a classic fantasy setting, I.e medival, but more 'High Fantasy' like Warcraft or Conan. It just seems more fantastical now and I'm working on terrain to try and reflect that. </div>
<br />
After searching for inspiration I saw some part for floating islands and I soon figured out how to do it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqjnawIjRVwWcRJKDXtPlpEImGHAMlW6tC5VGoIKtoF3gl_J9i5PNtGowPJYPVcxb3Uoh9k3lPhJT8mZUqzCCenOZB6LmN0KCem4xyXRXiaNwtPWM92YheGFWvJOUVocEojK86tmidGYo/s1600/20180620_210808.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqjnawIjRVwWcRJKDXtPlpEImGHAMlW6tC5VGoIKtoF3gl_J9i5PNtGowPJYPVcxb3Uoh9k3lPhJT8mZUqzCCenOZB6LmN0KCem4xyXRXiaNwtPWM92YheGFWvJOUVocEojK86tmidGYo/s320/20180620_210808.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The islands themselves are made from expanding foam and hole filla. Very cheap to pick up and easy to use. I followed the basic Terrain Tutor method for making these (if you dont know about The Terrain Tutor, seriously go give him a look, loads of tips, tricks and ideas!) </div>
<br />

I've made 3 island in total and I'm currently working on the smaller two to get to grips with how it all works before tackling the larger island above.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The chains are of equal length and space to give 3 good legs. They came from some Halloween chain I picked up years ago as it was being sold off and thought I'd find a use for it eventually. Each link is plastic glued to the next to form a decent bond, it's still fairly fragile but is ok for table top use of taken care of. The hardest bit was trying to get the hang of the chains to make them seem they are hanging rather than holding up the island. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The pick below is the second attempt at the chains. While still not totally perfect they do look a lot better than the first attempt.</div>
<br />

So there you have it, the first piece constructed! I'm actually waiting on the second to dry right now and then I can base that one too.</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hi all,</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today I've got a post on the leader of my Stormcast Eternals and as is befitting it's actually fallen that this is the 400th post here on Sign of the Aquila (It's only taken 8 years 10 months haha).</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So Vandus is the nominal leader of my Stormcast force as I've chosen to do the Hammers of Sigmar with the core of my force being from the Hammerhands specifically. Finishing Vandus has been a long time coming. I started him Feb/March time. However myself and my partner were starting the process of buying a house so I started to scale my hobby activity back and pack stuff up. I finished a couple of other small hobby projects but as he wasn't close to finished I decided to leave him until I could dedicate the appropriate time required rather than rush to finish him.</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Since we moved he has been sat in a box, I started work on a couple of LotR projects (see the posts from Friday 8th and Saturday 9th if you're interested and haven't seen them already), and I just generally found myself occupied with house related things (the list of small things to fix, do, etc, seems to keep growing). However with the announcement of new Stormcast reinforcements and a new edition, I thought I should probably work to get him finished. Not only that it also marks the last Stomcast to be finished from the original starter set I bought around winter time 2016 haha. He has however played in one game and I'm sure Zebulon could attest to how effective he was given he delt most of the wounds taken by his Oldblood on Carnosaur, swung the tide in favour of my stormcast in the fight against his cold one cavalry, before finishing the game landing the the killing blow on his Slann Mage Priest.</span><br>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today I'm back with another post about some Lord of the Rings models I have recently finished. This time round it's a set of Dwarves. GW put these out to primarily represent Dwarves of the Third Age but really they would be fine to represent any Dwarves I think. I had one of the old boxes of 24 sat around and after finishing my Morannon Orcs (see yesterday's post), I fancided doing some more LotR stuff and these fit the bill nicely. I've only done half of them so far as I find 12 at once is really about my comfortable limit for batch painting (I did a long time ago paint 24 Warriors of Minas Tirith in one go and found it such a drag).</span><br>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today I bring some pictures of my recently completed Morannon Orcs for the Lord of the Rings/Hobbit game. I don't know why I decided to paint these up, I just got the urge to do so. However I am glad I did as I actually really enjoyed doing so and, at the end of the day, that's part of what this hobby is all about.</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So on with some pictures.</span><br>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hi all.</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Happy 1st of the month. So it has been a long time since a post went up on here. For myself that's as a result of going through the whole process of buying a house with my partner and all the stuff that goes along with that. So I didn't have much chance to get much painting done for a while. </span><br>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">(This could be a long post so if you require refreshments or anything now would be the time)</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">However on and off I have managed to work on another project. As you may have guessed from the title I have been working on my own Laketown House for my Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit models. So this project that I have started on is a culmination of a few things. Firstly, myself and my girlfriend spent <i>a lot</i> of time watching through all the extra features on the extended editions of the LotR and Hobbit films. I had seen the LotR ones before but had never found time to watch the Hobbit ones. As I watched I kept getting little bits of inspiration and seeing so many people working with such dedication to something they really cared about must also have rubbed off. And secondly, thanks to Zebulon, I came across the Youtube channel of The Terrain Tutor (some of you will no doubt be aware of his work. If not I highly reccomend checking him out, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/TheTerrainTutor">link here</a>) where I started to pick up all kinds of useful terrain techniques. Thirdly I was inspired by the scenery work Zebulon himself has done recently for his 40k collection. </span><br>

Hi all.<br />
<br />
So this is a quick, and very late, results post for the painting challenge between myself and Zebulon. Unfortuantely a busy few weeks prevented me from doing this post sooner.<br />
<br />
So the challenge this time was to pick a mini that we knew the other had and get them to paint that. So it could be somehting we'd had for ages and not got round to painting or something fairly new that we wanted to see done. I picked for Zebulon to do his take on Shadowsun which he got many moons ago and he challenged me to paint the Branchwych I had recently bought as part of the Sylvaneth start collecting box.<br />
<br />
After a week of voting the results stood at 4 votes to my Branchwych and 1 vote to Zebulon's Shadowsun. So that makes my Branchwych the winner.<br />
<br />
Thanks to everyone who looked at the post and to those who voted as well. We really appreciate it.<br />
<br />
Blackmane<br />

Hi all,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So today marks the end of the first challenge of the year between here on Sign of the Aquila. This time round it was a pick something you know the other has and would like to see them paint. So for me, Blackmane picked Shadowsun, a model he picked up for me years ago and I picked for Blackmane to paint up his recently acquired Branchwych.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So below you can find the completed models for you to have a look at and decide which you think deserves to win this painting challenge. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Hi all,<br>
<br>
Back with the second update of my Tau extravaganza, this time I'm working on my first Hammerhead, equiped with 2 high yield missile pods and a smart missile system, the TX7 Heavy Bombardment Hammerhead Gunship. I really hope they come up with a catchier name for it eventually like..... Blackreef or Sturgeon or something.... Any way on with the pictures......<br>

<br>
Today I bring some pictures of a couple of squads I finished just before christmas as part of a push to finish the Stormcast I had from the starter set. The first to be finished were prosecutors and they were swiftly followed by the liberators. I will point out that the liberators aren't technically the ones from the starter. They are a third squad I assmebled from a liberator quick build box and a couple of liberators from the getting started with AoS magazine thing. I didn't really realise this as I dived into them so in my mind I had to change my challenge to 'finish an equivalent amount of stormcast from the starter set'.<br>
<br>
Anyway lets get to the pictures.<br>

Hi all.<br>
<br>
So with the new year now here and 6 days in, myself and Zebulon have settled on our first challenge. We've been having quite the discussion about challenges since our last one, for various reasons, and so in the not too distant future we'll be doing something we've not done before. For now though we kick off this year's challenges with a good, simple, painting challenge.<br>

Happy New Year all!<br>
<br>
It was a pretty quiet month from myself and Blackmane hobby wise because of work and Christmas and the like. Though I did manage to squeeze in a 2000pt game just before. I dusted off my Tau and filled the field with them, but this time the Greater Good was turned back by some tenacious Grey Knights.<br>
<br>
I love my Tau, I love the aesthetic and the way they are totally opposite the grim dark of the Imperium. Over the last few years Blackmane has done me some excellent models to go with my force but they don't see the field as much as I'd like.<br>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Im here again with another post, this time it's not something really new however it is one of my favourite models I've ever painted. I was never really happy with the pics I took to show it off, so now I've invested in better equipment I thought I'd give it another go..... so on with the pics!</div>

<br />
Just a quick post to announce the winner of mine and Zebulon's Painting Challenge. This time around it was my Gaunt Summoner vs Zebulon's Endrinmaster. After a week of votes the results were 4 votes to my Gaunt Summoner and 1 vote to Zebulons's Endrinmaster.<br />
<br />
So that makes my Gaunt Summoner the winner for this challenge.<br />
<br />

Hi all,<br />
<br />
Today I bring a post on the first squad of Liberators and my squad of Retributors. Both of these are from the AoS starter set so the Retributor squad is only 3 strong. I have bought 2 extra Retributors off ebay to take them up to a 5 man unit however I hadn't done them at the time of writing this post. Both of the units were again painted up for my first ever game of AoS. Both units did fairly well if I remember correctly, with the Retributors coming on late but taking our Zebulon's Saurus riding Cold Ones who had butchered my Prosecutors and most of another Liberator squad.<br />
<br />
Lets see some more pictures.<br />

I'm happy with how they all turned out. It's a shame I hadn't managed to get my other 2 Retributors done along with these 3 but I'm sure if I follow the same video tutorial from warhammer tv they should match just fine. I really am finding the videos on warhammer tv very useful for painting the contents of the starter set and I'd highly recommend them. From the starter set I now just have 1 unit each of Liberators and Prosecutors and then Vandus Hammerhand himself. After that I have a 3rd Liberators squad to do along with a few of the character models. Hoping to have them all starter set stuff done by christmas if not all my Stormcast Eternal stuff I have so far. It would make them my most completed army if I do haha.<br />
<br />
Also if you don't come here often you may be unaware that myself and Zebulon are currently near the end of running a poll to decided the winner of our latest painting contest which can be found <a href="http://signoftheaquila.blogspot.co.uk/2017/11/blackmane-vs-zebulon-painting-challenge_11.html">here</a>. If you want to help decided the winner cast your vote. The poll can be found at the top of the page just beneath the banner.<br />

As always thanks for taking the time to have a look and please feel free to leave a comment be it good, bad or somewhere in between.<br />

Hi all.<br />
<br />
So today I bring a post about my recently finished Lord Relictor for my Stormcast Eternals army. Seen as I'm collecting the Hammers of Sigmar the Lord Relictor is actually named as one Ionus Cryptborn. I got him painted up and finished before my first ever game of AoS a few weeks back which was against Zebulon and his Seraphon. I think Zebulon would agree this guy was a real pain for him. In my first turn he oblitorated 3 skinks with lightning before over the next two turns taking out the rest of the unit more or less single handed. More importantly I kept him near Vandus Hammerhand and healed him multiple times keeping him in the fight the whole game.<br />
<br />
With that said on to some more pictures.<br />

Overall I'm happy with how he turned out. I think the weakest area on him is probably his standard. I think the paint job there got a little rough in places there but nevermind. I just followed the excellent painting video on the warhammer tv youtube channel when it came to painting him up. The only thing I did differently was I kept the standard seperate and I tweeked the odd detail here and there.<br />
<br />
In other business myself and Zebulon are now a few days into a poll on our recent painting challenge.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Just a quick update on the painting challenge. It was due to end tomorrow but in actual fact we've paused the challenge. Zebulon asked me earlier on this week if we could pause the challenge as due to longer than usual days at work for the last week or so he hasn't had time to even get started. So because of this I agreed to pausing the challenge until Zebulon has his free time back again as it seemsonly fair. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hopefully that won't be to long and we'll get a new end date set as soon as possible.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thanks for bearing with us haha.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hi all.</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today marks the start of a new painitng challenge between myself (Blackmane) and Zebulon. As some of you may know from time to time we run a challenge where we pick a model (it might be one we both like, both want to try painting, both own, etc), set a time limit and get painting. The challenge this time is in a format we've only done once before in that we won't be painting the same model and we each picked the model the other will paint (link to the <a href="http://signoftheaquila.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/zebulon-vs-blackmane-painting-duel.html">last one</a> where we did an Empire General vs Wight King). </span><br>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The criteria were as follows:</span><br>
<br>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">An Age of Sigmar model</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Had to have the </span>HERO <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">keyword</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Under £20 in value</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">No rule on model material</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">No rule on specific factions/armies </span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">More after the jump. </span></div>

Hey all,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I'm here again with another scenery splurge, this time not a scratch built building, but a repurpose of some older kits I bought, with a few additions.</div>
