Burlok Damminsson and the Reckless Endrineers, part 3

Bodmet Stormbuster, Aetheric Navigator, is ready to join Burlok Damminson and The Reckless Endrineers. (A converted Dagni Holdenstock from Cursed City. An eBay bargain because his weapon arm was missing!)






It's like some kind of quest, for a warhammer... Soulbound (or Cursed City?) adventuring party!

Burlok Damminsson and the Reckless Endrineers, part 2

The Reckless Endrineers:


An Arkanaut Captain, 5 Thunderers with Aethershot Rifles, and an Endrinrigger with an Aethermatic Volley Gun is just under 1000 points in Warcry.

For the Thunderers I used Space Wolf heads instead of the masked helmets. The neck joints needed more work than I'd hoped but I think they match the look of the helmetless Kharadron in the Battletome art quite nicely. after a lot of indecision I settled on using the same colour scheme as my Realmgate Wardens (which is pretty much the standard Hammerhal Aqsha uniform of dark blue and gold). I don't plan for the two forces to grown into an army but you never know...

The next two models for the warband are finished, and along the way I updated Burlok Damminson to match their colours a bit more closely. I also changed his collar to red because I liked the extra colour on Dagnai Holdenstock, the Cursed City Kharadron adventurer.













Update (2021-03-18) 

Three more Thunderers finished! I think I'm going to leave the Endrinriggers for now and paint some more scenery. I'll come back to the dorfs later.

Burlok Damminsson and the Reckless Endrineers, part 1




Burlok Damminson, son of Dammin Burlokson, son of Burlok Damminson, son of Dammin Burlokson, son of Burlok Damminson, son of Dammin Burlokson, son of Burlok Damminson, son of Dammin Burlokson, son of ...

It's a strong family tradition going back to before the Age of Myth.

As soon as I saw the 2020 Christmas model from GW I started planning an AoS version of Burlok Damminson. I have never really been "into" Dwarfs and while I like the idea of the Kharadron Overlords a lot, I wasn't keen on any of the character models, so I didn't consider them as a force for me. But the new "Jakkob Bugmansson" is such a great model I couldn't resist it.

Back in the "Age of Lead" I had the start of a Dwarf force that never really got any further than purchasing three blister packs and gluing them into their bases: it was Burlok Damminson and 6 Thunderers. 

So now I'm going to reproduce them as a Kharadron Warcry warband. I used a Datasmith powerfist (from the Kastalan Robots kit) for Burlok's BIONIC left arm (the barrel is the aether endrin powering it) and a very old Dwarf Warrior's hammer instead of his pint.

An Arkanaut Captain, 5 Thunderers with Aethershot Rifles, and an Endrinrigger with an Aethermatic Volley Gun is just under 1000 points in Warcry.

I used Space Wolf heads instead of the masked helmets. The neck joints needed more work than I'd hoped but I think they match the look of the helmetless Kharadron in the Battletome art quite nicely. I have also heard a lot of bad reports about the flying stands, so I have improvised something from my bits box instead - I think it's from a Coven Throne kit?
