Here is my last update before the trip to Madison fir the assault on the Traitor's Fortress. Didn't finish as much as I hoped due to shopping for a new car, which I did purchase this week.
This is how the 8th Company will look as the footslogging Marines embark on their Drop Pods, the Assault Marines fuel up their jump packs, and the Terminators home in on transponder signals.
I hid the less painted models behind the ones that are finished, hopefully you don't notice!
Hello everyone and welcome to the Road to Badab. This blog has been created in an effort to keep me on track with painting models for my Astral Claws and to keep my group interested and excited for our Badab themed Apocalypse game coming in April 2012.

Airbrushed Hellhounds
I have to say, for a test with the airbrush / I want some tanks to be painted, these turned out pretty good.
The colors are a little light for what I wanted, but really, I'm going to wash/detail them anyways so I'll hold off until I get to that point. I'm going to try and get this scheme done on the 2 basilisks I have in my list for this weekend, this would make 6 tanks out of 10 'painted'! I'm super pleased with having this much progress done on an army and it seems everyone else feels much the same, what a difference it makes.
Galin's Salamanders
Galin had posted an in progress shot of his Salamanders on Facebook a little bit ago. I wanted to share it here as well. Enjoy!
Palace of Thorns
Here are the outer walls of the Palace of Thorns. Will the loyalists be able to breach them or will Huron succeed in holding Badab? These walls were constructed and painted by Piper and Galin. Thanks guys!
Badab game is this Saturday!
So the day is at last approaching. I've painted more miniatures for my Astral Claws army than I have for any army ever! Hopefully this will set a new precedent for me going forward with my miniatures. Playing with fully painted armies is, as any wargamer can tell you, extremely satisfying. I've got a few pictures here from my work station over the weekend. I'll try to get some better pictures of the other stuff I've finished later this week. Plus we'll be sure to take plenty of pictures during the game this weekend. I hope you'll all enjoy!

Tyrants Legion!
So, my shots aren't as spectacular, but I did manage to get a lot of painting done. There is still basing to be done, matte finish to be applied to many, but on the table there are 120+ figures with paint on them which makes it officially the largest quantity of anything I've ever painted. I even managed to get an airbrush test in on a hellhound (back right of picture). If I get the time this week, a few more tanks will get the 2 color camo base done to them. Needless to say, I'm close to having a largely painted army and yet...there are still so many more to go! =)
