Rumour: Tyranid Codex Next Year, Space Wolves update in April?

Tyranid 084Some rumours about Nids surfaced this week. As you know I don’t like posting rumours, but as this is contradicting the rumour  previously published on ChapterMasters that Tyranids are getting a codex this year, I had to post it. This doesn’t mean Tyranids won’t get a White Dwarf update this year. The picture in the back of the March White Dwarf may indicate this could happen as early as April’s White Dwarf, although the picture could also mean Space Wolves are getting an update, a flyer perhaps to make sense of  flyer rules they have in Death from the skys. It could mean something else altogether? I guess we’ll find out for sure next month.

*Tyranids are coming. Probably after Orks sometime next year.
*Carnifexes are getting a big boost
*Deepstriking emplacements for shooting and increasing synapse ranges
*A new Spider-like Pysker Monstrous Creature
*Background being expanded with some sort of connection between the old ones and C’tan being worked on

 

 

Ultramarine StormEagle

The Storm Eagle has landed

Progress has stopped on the Ultramarine Storm Eagle. Many things have hampered it including the Space Wolves Storm Eagle I’m now also not working on, but most of all work has just been too busy for any modelling. I’ve only just realised I’ve only posted one photo of the Storm Eagle, here are a few more.

Today’s Pictures: Dark Angel Art and old Codexs

More from the the Dark Angels display at Warhammer World today. The first image contains all the old Dark Angels codexs, (angels of death contained both Dark Angel and Blood Angels). The other images are selected pieces of Dark Angels art, most of which appear in the Dark Angels codex.

Pictures: Owen’s Dark Angels at Warhammer World

Spoiler alert: If you intending to go to Warhammer World in the next week look away. This Dark Angel Amy flanks one end of the Dark Angels Display at Warhammer World. It’s clear at lot of effort has gone in to this Dark Angel army. From the Watcher mounting some kind of flying lion to the Forge World Dregnought, from the MkII Land Speeder to the extensive use of winged shoulder pads. Owen has made an army any Dark Angel player would be pleased to field, not least the Thunderhawk posted yesterday.

Today’s Picture: Dark Angel Thunderhawk

If you haven’t had a chance to see the Dark Angels display at Warhammer World, time is running out. There is a lot of art work, the studios models and two cabinets filled with Dark Angels painted by Owen and Brian Anderson. I’ll be posting more from the display in the future  but if you want to see it in person you have about 7 days left.

I thought I’d start with the biggest model in the display. A Forged World Thunderhawk painted in Dark Angels colours.
