Hello to the Owac community,
after several years of postponing the chaos stunties, I finally decided to make 2026, their year. Until the last minute, I hesitate to make norses before them but I resisted.
I gathered these guys, years ago and I really like these little guys. Originally, it was just a couple of them mixed with chaos warriors and beastmen and purchase after purchase, I made an entire army of these guys.
The art of the army:
Drum and Drone Ulsen were my first chaos dwarf. I sold it in my young years but found it again later.
So basically, the army is centered around the Master of Madness and his wizard:
The army got 2 big units:
The warriors with shield
The berserkers
With them, we got some support units:
Crossbows and a swivel gun
A BAZOOKA!
I like putting some greenskins slaves and henchmen to handle the big weapons.
In order to finish the army, the stunites also brought a big Gun!
The lead belcher with no less than 6 crewmen
Here is the plan for 2026! The full army groupshot:
Chaos dwarves marching to war ...
Point wise:
24 chaos dwarfs with shield and heavy armor and command group: 324 pts
1 Lord level 15 hero with heavy armor and shield : 152 pts
1 wizard : i dont know ...
20 berserkers with 2 handed weapon and command group: 345 pts
1 bazooka: 70 pts
10 crossbowmen: 140 pts
1 swivel gun: 55 pts
1 lead belcher: 102,5 pts
A total of 1188.5 pts!
Here we are, ready for 2026. I will still have to paint my offering to warlord Jaakko:
The Knight of Chaos Buoophut Bane-Arrow
I still need to base it, paint it and all that.
Good end of year 2025 to everyone and see you in 2026!

Love these evil stunties! Good luck with your project!
ReplyDeleteDuring the last few years I bought much of the big hat Chaos Dwarfs for a futur OWAC. I also bought a few of those older ones and would love one day to get as much as you got for your project! Can’t wait to see them painted!
ReplyDeleteAn amazing selection of models here! I particularly love the Bazooka and Berserkers. Can't wait to see these painted up
ReplyDeleteGreat illustration to use as inspiration and an awesome collection of Chaos Dwarves! Good luck with the challenge! Really looking forward to seeing all of these painted!
ReplyDeleteLoving this so far. The artwork is a very blanche color scheme. This is going to be good :)
ReplyDeleteSo many awesome models! This will be worth the wait!
ReplyDeleteReally looking forward to seeing this take shape.
ReplyDeleteExcellent choice of minis! Looking forward to seeing the first painted models!
ReplyDeleteI always wanted to do a project like this. Before my own chaos obsession took hold. Good luck. I'm looking forward to this one.
ReplyDeleteOooh, the original Chaos Dwarves, before the Big Hats happened (guys, if you don't know the story of why the Big Hats are so very, very big you should look it up because it's really quite funny.)
ReplyDeleteI've never really liked Chaos Dwarves as a concept (just one Chaos Thingy too far for me) but this army is right there in Warhammer Armies so is, to me, the very core of Oldhammer. And if anyone is going to make me love Chaos Dwarves, it's you! Good luck! :)
Thank you! I ll do my best to make you chaos dwarfs :)
DeleteShadespyre, you can't leave us hanging like that. I tried looking up the origin of the Big Hats and all I got was the usual, boring Mesopotamia and "needed a signature look" references.
DeleteRather than me retell it, this video includes Rick Priestly telling it in his own words. And lots of other Big Hat fun.

I love this project! I'm a big fan of Chaos Dwarves of the small hat era. The sculpts are full of character and they are so clearly evil and corrupted. Good luck in the challenge!
ReplyDeleteHello guys, many thanks for your comments! I m starting to work on the berserkers right now!
ReplyDeleteThe best chaos dwarfs. Looking forward to following this!
ReplyDeleteWow! Can't believe the cost of these lil guys nowadays, and it's the main reason I've not collected them (but I have pumped for the knightmare minis range). Really looking forward to seeing your take on these iconic figs! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteTrue chaos dwarves! great army, I am looking forward to see it in its evil spledour
