149th Krieg Siege Armoured Regiment.

Recently got hit hard by the tank craze, so here is my Krieg armoured regiment that is currently WIP.

Just got a few more tanks recently. My tanks are currently in various stages of WIP.

Final target tank count is somewhere around 10+ tanks.

Man, you sure assemble fast, 4 hours 3 tanks is damn fast =p

And oh, Thanks for the game =) (Khorne demand a rematch!)

@limp no problem lets game again next time.

Oh yeah... I likey dat Devil Dawg. Hahaha.

Well now we can play apoc...hihihi.. combine that with spunkybass tanks & rizal we should have about a 100 IG tanks.

Lol. I will need more tanks and superheavies before my IG becomes viable for apoc games.

trust me having those are pretty sufficient already.

After yesterdays game i am also thinking about fielding vendetta gunships. 3 TL lascannons are real deadly.

I remembered a month ago you said that you're starting slow..
looks like the tank frenzy has too hard to resist..

@vuel: TANKS FOR THE TANK GODS THREADS FOR THE THREAD THRONE!!

Current 1750 points list using the standard IG codex as a base, all models other than the tanks are being proxied at the moment.

skip the vendetta, give chimera to the vets, and add more tanks..
pretty sure you can add more LR into the list..

Got a game in with jinn's black templars at the forge yesterday.

Deployment was quarters. Due to both of us completely forgetting to Place objectives we settled for KP instead.

Final score was 7 to 5 with my tanks coming out on top.

I realised that assaulting terminators are a huge danger to tanks. Have to take care to keep them outta range.

I realised that assaulting terminators are a huge danger to tanks. Have to take care to keep them outta range. <-- mind elaborate? (I'm still secretly hoping to know how to get near ur tanks =___,=)

Jinn placed his assault terminators in a land raider and rushed the land raider towards my LR Demolishers.

Due to bad rolls my melta vets and the vendetta failed to kill the LR.
The demolisher squadron killed the Land Raider but the termies popped out and charged the tanks. Destroying 2 tanks.

I then retreated the last demolisher to a safe distance and shelled the terminators. But i only killed 2 terminators.

@Limp: see, that's one of the ways to use a Land Raider

@Vern : Jinn's termi equip with?

Assault terminator. Mix of THSS and LC.

Tested out rusting effects and added decals.



With some mods it is possible to mount a LR turret on a rhino chassis. Fascinating.

Vern, you are doing the rust effect using powder or paint?

@limp
Its somewhere between paint and powder. I used this http://ak-interactive.blogspot.com/2010/08/streaking-rust.html
Don't think i got it completely right though. Will need more trials.

Interesting stuff u have there.... btw, that stuff able to be wipe off? or its permanent already?

just a suggestion, try remove some? the rust effect seems a bit too evenly populated, maybe make it a bit random? take a finer brush and only make them leak down from the a few of the rivet and the lower part of the tank... I guess if rust slide down in real ife, they somehow gather at the bottom

ps: just finish a McD family breakfast set all by meself.. blurp, gotta start painting =) I LOVE holiday!

@limp
The one i am using is an enamel paint. so its more or less permanent. But yeah i think i need to use a really fine brush to get the desired streaks.

As for why the bottom isn't rusted so heavily it is because i plan to cover it up with mud effects. No point rusting it and then painting over it with mud again IMO.

p.s. i envy your ability to each so much yet stay slim.

nicely done wolken.

Tested the new Base paint Mechanicus Standard Grey. Looks pretty good IMO


Painted my tank commander and did some mud effects.
Tank Commander painted with white primer, followed by layer of astronomican grey, then fortress grey, and then new Eshin Grey.
Leather parts are Griffon Brown washed with Devlan Mud (Aggrax Earthshade) wash. Metal is Boltgun metal washed with Badab Black (Nuln Oil)

P.S. Thanks for letting me muck around with the paint station Alvin. On a completely unrelated note I got my airbrush today.
