Fantastic. Very ingenious use of the spare parts of the bell kit

The pictures now appear for me and I can say that I love your creative plague catapult conversion.

I've been doing some tweaking - have a look now! Let me know if any of you still can't see anything! I can still see them. I guess we all learned that we can't link from Lustria Online. Such a shame.

Indeed that sadly seems to be the case, but I’ll let you in on the trick I used - I simply searched the name of my painting blog on Lustria into Google images and used the addresses of the images that came up on there - so effectively you can link from there in a way, just not directly from Lustria itself. Good old Google Images comes to the rescue

Fantastic. Very ingenious use of the spare parts of the bell kit The pictures now appear for me and I can say that I love your creative plague catapult conversion. Thank you! The Plagueclaw is certainly the most ambitious conversion I’ve ever done - at one point the catapult arm with the counterweight and payload kept failing to stick onto the bracket that is holding it in place (a piece of sprue that was conveniently shaped like a y) because of its weight, and I was honestly pretty worried that it wouldn’t work out, but I managed to stick it eventually through pure perseverance. The result is a piece that can certainly be called unique, will hopefully be of great use on the battlefield (can’t go too wrong with a large blast template weapon that ignores armour saves) and, best of all, was completely free and saved me another £25 that would have otherwise been spent to buy another Warp Lightning Cannon/Plagueclaw kit. I’m honestly chuffed to bits with how it turned out. It’s actually also the tallest thing in my army now, as it even pips the Screaming Bell in height!

Well now that GW have executed Fantasy, I have to snap up anything I find that I would like to have in my army as soon as I see it, as chances are that if I don't someone else will and it would be unlikely that I'd get a second chance. However I am following a general pattern of mostly High Elves and Skaven now that I'm largely satisfied with my Dwarf and Lizardmen armies, and because Greenskins cost so few points I'm having to find a good lot of Orcs to take them up to around the same points level.

The all look great! Love seeing all of the vintage stuff! Thank you! I'm one of those Warhammer players who generally sees models from previous editions not as rubbishy old sculpts but as pieces of Warhammer history (although there are a few exceptions *cough*old Nagash sculpt*cough*), so when I see some old versions of units I'd like to have in my army available for sale in independent retailers, I snap them up as soon as possible. In fact some old models, like the 4th Edition High Elf archers I bought recently and the 6th Edition Empire State Troopers, I think look better than newer versions of the same kit (the 4th Edition archers wear helmets rather than the pansy hairdos the multipart kit had, and the 6th Edition State Troopers look like proper humans compared to the hunchbacked, deformed half-trolls in the 7th Edition kit).
