    Hello there!

    This will be my primary painting log, I will let the other one slide into obscurity as the name bothers me, but it contains most of my Haqqislam work and can be found here!

    At this time I have been starting Shasvastii and love the play style! Here are the two models painted currently, plus my Lamia Doctor Worm for posterity.

    @theGricks These conversions are amazingly thought out. I'd never think that a Hexa could be used as an Hassassin base. Nor a Ninja or Shona's model. I remember seeing your Joan conversion before when you first posted pictures of her. This is some really nice work on your part Gricks.

    Great conversions, I like your creativity!

    I really don't envy your hobby expenditure to get so many pieces for conversions, but you seem to be using up lots of pieces from everwhere so it probably works out reasonably well :)

    To date I have spent $300 purely on model kits to cut up and destroy....I still have more planned. I want to make a "Combined Army-sised" version of my Ramah List I ran for Asteroid Blues. Buy all the pieces and reconvert them to Combined army bits and accessories.

    When I consider what I had spent on 'other games' to do similar, that's actually not bad overall with time invested etc. I look forward to seeing your results! Keep up the great work and inspiration :D

    Sounds like we go to the same lengths for conversions we want to make reality.

    ^ What @Koin-Koin said !

    Now that's how you do Jannies, I wish I had done that early on with the HMG and ML, but I was hoping they would bring out another HMG model and never bothered.

    Great stuff, I like that you did the Maggies in different colours :)

    Cavus Palavi Zyah, MD

    Unit Doctor of Razia Detachment Task Force 29, based off of the Haqqislamite Light Cruiser adh-Dhi’b, is a veteran of numerous campaigns. Working originally with the unit under their Qapu Khalqi origins, they were reassigned and retrained under the Ramah Task Force Razia Detachment shortly after the events of the Kurage Crisis, and the fall of the Ghezira Space elevator. Known for her intelligence and dedication to her craft, she is as adept with a scalpel as she is a rifle, remaining cool under pressure and defending her patients. She sees herself as the shield to those who fall on the field of battle, and will risk all to bring them home safe.

    The events of Asteroid Blues though changed the unit in particular, and none more so than Palavi Zyah. The Unit had several critical engagements with EI forces, and clashed with a particular aspect on numerous occasions. The unit was able to drive these forces back repeatedly, but the final engagement was a culmination of what their enemy had learned, and its ability to unceasingly attack an opponent that was tiring. The Doctor went head to head with the Anathematic, codenamed Jinn, after it had ripped its way through her unit. While she was highly decorated for this action, and she ultimately protected her wounded comrades, hurting and pushing back the beast, she was on the brink of death.

    Palavi was stabilized in the unit's care after medical evacuation, but she had to be transferred to Al’Medinat where she was left in a comatose state. Due to her actions though, and the political pull of Doctor Abdul Hakeem El-Aafah, the father of the unit commander, she was signed on for the testing of a new “super-soldier” process called Sekhmet. This new serum focused on increasing the regenerative capabilities and stamina of its users to the degree that lost limbs and organs can be regrown over the course of days, or the reattachment of lost limbs over the course of hours.

    Recovery happened within a few days of the administering of the serum, and had become a somewhat public affair. High Command thought it useful to leverage this into the character of “Palavi Zyah, Angel of the Stars”, as a display that even the voodoo tech of the EI cannot defeat the medicine and will of Haqqislam. Palavi has taken this new responsibility and capability in stride, returning to her unit, and talking to seminars in medical colleges around the Human Sphere about the challenges of battlefield medicine, and voodoo tech injuries.

    “By bandage or by bullet, I am not letting you die on this useless rock.”
