This blog is about my hobby: collecting and painting miniatures (mainly fantasy) and playing epic Warhammer battles (mainly 3rd edition). The blog's name is a contraction of Old Metal (lead miniatures referring to Oldhammer) and the famous song 'Metal Militia' from Metallica (yes, I'm a great fan of Metal music).
Although my (painted) Chaos army increases in size on a regular basis and is quite big now (around 300 painted Chaos minis), most of the Chaos champions (sculpted by Jes Goodwin) still need to be painted. I will rectify this by painting some from time to time, alternatively with minis for other armies.
Here are four Chaos champions and two sorcerers, along with two familiars (these are not from Citadel, and honestly I don't remember where I got them from... 😕).
Back to my Orc & Goblin army, I've painted these guys to add some firepower.
First, the legendary Orc crossbowmen designed by Kev Adams. The biggest of them will act as their leader and is from Knightmare Miniatures.
Then, we have a "Goblin Ass Cannon" (which will certainly count as a mortar in terms of rules) from Red Bard Games.
And finally, an Orc shaman mounted on a war boar (also from Red Bard Games).
