Draigo Conversion

So not the most complicated of conversion, but still alot of fun to make and to paint.


I used a metal Kaldor Draigo model to start with.  The sword is obviously kit bashed from the Dreaknight kit. After all, it is the freaking Titan Sword!  His shield is from the Hector Rex Inquisitor guy from Forge World.  The base is from my friend Dameon at http://eternal-legion.blogspot.com/

Modular Gaming Table

So the Beltway Gamers have been cranking out a ton of new terrain of late after the team tourney pushed us to the limits with 16 tables.  A member came up with an idea to do modular 12x12 or 24x24 inch tiles.  We decided to make 2 such tables and I think they came out very good.  They are completely flexible in layout.


They still need some drybrushed highlighting but I think they look great.  We are going to make more area terrain tiles with craters and such as its mostly buildings and roads right now.

I know some of the WAAC players will say the 12" tiles give an advantage but you know what.? .... whatever, thats some dumb shit to say.  It looks cool and everyone gets to see the tiles making it fair.
