Birds Of Prey

The real meat and potatoes of the Gold Arrow Squadron are ole Whitey's pals here marked in Red and Gold!

 The Vendetta Squadron comprises just one layer of the sophisticated Air Superiority and Air Defense capabilities of the 444th and the Army of General Oadius.

The Squadron of course boasts handfuls of highly accurate Lascannons and each bird can carry any manner of trooper directly into battle or vital strategic locations. They are sure to be found supporting all parts of the Army Of Oadius.

My Eldar are darker than yours.

Here is a quick update on the Dark Eldar I am working on for Kevin.

Circus of the grotesque

Hey guys! I just wanted to share a short video. Here are some of the models from a Dark Eldar commission I have. I have been working very closely with my friend on these and I think they are coming out pretty well. There are a lot more and I will show them all soon.

Thanks for watching.

444th: AIR SUPPORT

Gold Arrow Squadron has arrived to support the 444th over the battlefields of the grimdark Warhammer 40k universe. The Army of General Oadius expands its scope once more with this weeks installment from the MURDER Factory: Imperial Guard Vendetta Squadron.

Starting with 'ole Whitey here, the 444th bring some much respected Air Power to the tabletop:

The Vendetta Squadron, or parts of it - is perfect for bringing 444th Allies along on almost any size mission.

Hunting Mutants back home on Baal or just generally murdering the enemies of the Wolfbrothers - Whitey is ready to go!

Thanks everyone! Stay tuned!

Re-roll EVERYTHING!!!

This month the Army of General Oadius receives fanatical reinforcements as the 444th Baal Planetary Suppression Force rolls out of the Murder Factory and onto the tabletop to pass out the hurt!

Its been a huge project entirely supervised by one of our newest Wolfbrothers, General Alexander.

After a tremendous construction effort, the entire fleet of imperial weaponry was treated to  several layers of airbrushed "color bands" and a hairspray/salt mask to setup and install the initial highlights and weathering army-wide. Last month we posted a sort of step by step breakdown of the process used on this army.

 Starting with 3-part primer/underpainting we end up with 3-part Red on top of a weathering salt mask on top of  5-part color band (Black/Green/Tin/Grey/White.) Basically a lot of airbrushing to achieve a close-to-finish effect with little brushwork needed to complete.

The rest sort of speaks for itself as we end up with a bunch of big mean Imperial guns looking for something to shoot at.  Some really big missiles too.

 General Oadius wont be lacking for Anti Aircraft firepower if he wants it.

 Or Anti-whatever firepower really. This Army brings more than one of every kind of Imperial Gun available.

 Tanks! Lots of Tanks - with big guns on top!
