None of the Chambers that exist as far as I know, I just decided to go with a home brew colour scheme. I guess the turquoise is identical to those with the turquoise armour but that is about it.

Storm casts look great, love the color scheme. Then again I have a huge soft spot for Sotek Green (assuming you're using GW paints)

It is indeed Sotek green, a lovely colour it is too.

So...a sad day. My last supply drop for the foreseeable future:





I love the Maggoth Lord kit, but have no idea which of the Lords to go for. And in an interesting note the construction pamphlet only has the Warscroll for Morbidex Twiceborn, none of the others...that is a bit odd.

I suspect they'll throw in Orghotts and Bloab at some point!

Nice haul. I'm in the position of trying to grab the last few things over the next few paydays so I can stop buying as well for the most part, excepting the odd item.

I assume that you have even more to get through than me Azazel...and a greater variety of models too. Anything in particular you are after?

@AOV as the warscroll are available for free it is not an issue...I think it was just spare space they needed to use up.

Have gone through the warscroll for everyone, there is not much in it. Not helping is the fact that I like Bloab's mount the best and Orghott as the best rider and Morbidex's scythe best....grrrrr.

Pretty sweet work going on in here! One fun thing about Stormcast is that you don't have to paint skin!

Be sure to check out the GW YouTube videos for painting them. Really helpful!

Wow, you've been making some great progress. Your AoS stuff is top notch, and I especially like the realmgate.

Glad to see you're got your Maggoth lord. I've always wanted one, but can't really justify it, since I've gotten out of fantasy. Looking forward to see what you do with yours, though.

I also think that exalted deathbringer is a pretty cool model.

Then I'd say just use all three of those parts If he's just for AOS, Morbidex is the only one with rules (for the time being? maybe ever?), so your more-or-less generic Maggoth Lord would fit the bill as much as any

- Salvage

They've all got rules. Morbidex is the only one mentioned in the Quest for Ghal Maraz though.

Oh! So they do. I really thought it was just the one. Looking at the rules, they're all quite good, I suppose it'd come down to what rules you like more: Bloab is the wizard but less fighty (with a solid if extra random shooting attak), Morbidex is the tank and buffs Nurglings (with a mediocre shooting attak), Orghotts fights and hurts more as he fails / gets wounded (with a brutal but short ranged shot).

Fakk it, I'd have to go with what looks coolest ... unless I was running Nurglings

- Salvage

I have checked out those tutes AOV, and very useful they are too. And for you Boss Salvage Sir I did go for what I thought was coolest in the end, we have a winner and he is...squelchy drum roll please...

Orghotts Daemonspew...the beast did it in the end:





Orghotts has been left separate for ease of painting:





I also decided to put my Plaguebearers on 32mm bases, of which I seem to have an overabundance, and I think they fill them out quite well:



I really enjoyed working on both kits.

I have not neglected the painting side of things either though, so here is my WIP Dreadlord on Black (tempered) Dragon:

That dragon is looking sweet!

Big lads these Maggoth Lords...

That dragon is looking fantastic mate. Nice work!

Awesome work! Followed!

I've gone into a bit of a buying frenzy lately as the AU dollar has been dropping with no end really in sight. 4 AoS boxes, a bunch of WHFB and 40k stuff I wanted to get before they go OOP or GW stops supplying local businesses with product, 2 (more) BA armies, and about 20 boxed WW2 tanks and AFVs due to a sale and deiscovering a local source of Italieri-branded Warlord kits that work out to half the price of buying from any games store. And a bunch of the Zombicide S3 stuff I missed out on from the KS with 3 Gaming Night kits, and X-Wing ships. More paints, War of the Roses figures, and a bunch of non-GW Beastmen stuff. My wife also picked me up a big pile of secondhand plastic bloodletters and horrors (and the khorne daemon cannon) last week from a store while she was at a work conference in town.

Stuff I'm trying to get before I put a bit of a stop on buying - a GW order for Moria goblin stuff that should "finish" that army. Bunch of metal Greeks from Wargames Foundry, a (local) Wargames Factory order for about 15 boxes of various troops, completing a last few KS PMs (Conan, ZCBP, etc), maybe an SS and a Fallschirmjaeger army for BA, another set of Russian Alternative Not-Chaos Dwarves, and then it'll just be the odd purchase after that, unless I finally get the Hirst Arts moulds I've wanted for years.

By that time some more Rubicon HIPS WW2 vehicles will be out as well, so if I find a sale or exceptional price, I'll grab those as well. But no rush on those.

That will probably take a couple opf months. Then I can calm the feth down on my model buying, and spend the extra cash on videogames. Or maybe the mortgage and student loans I'm still paying off.


ahem.

The Nurgle stuff is coming along nicely, and I think I'm going to rip your 32mm base idea off for my own Lesser Daemons after seeing yours. They just work so very well.

That dragon, though.. looks fething outstanding!

I think you should consider a baleful glow for the eyes on the dragon. Like the Dracoth in the Stormcast Eternals (see GW's AoS Tutorial for Vandus Hammerhand)

Blimey Azazel, you have gone bonkers but it makes sense to make hay whilst the currency fluctuations are in your favour.

Have completed the Dreadlord on Dragon, this was a right git to photograph so apologies for the poor pictures, but I am happy with it. I also changed the head having made a complete hash of the previous one, luckily I like this one better:

Damn, that's fantastic! The colours and tones are just superb!

Yeah superb. I always liked that model but you've made it even better. Great stuff!

Is that the base the model comes with now then Thraxas? Looks awesome

Thank you gents, it is a miniature I really like so that always helps with painting.

It has not had a re-pack for AOS yet so it is just a base I took from one of the base packs. It could probably do with being a bit bigger but it was all I had.

Actually, the dollar is circling the drain, so I see it as buying up before it's even worse (and then stopping for a good while). It helped that almost all of the tanks were on sale at good local prices which were far better than the usual of importing from the UK as I usually do.

More importantly, that dragon looks

So have got Orghotts Daemonspew done:

















And also got half of a unit of Plaguebearers done:








So 12/57 done in my little challenge, here is to some more.

Holy crap!!! That Maggoth lord is simply stunning. The skin tones are just great. That seems to be something you do very well, as you achieved a similarly awesome effect on the dragon from your previous post as well.

You've been really pumping out some great models lately and a quick speed. You and Paradigm should have a speed painting contest sometime.

Agreed, that is just super stuff, quite possibly your best yet! I was never really a fan of the Chaos End Times models, but that piece there is just perfect! And to have done that and and a Dragon, both so well, within a week or so is amazing speed! You're not related to the Flash at all?

Pretty sure I'd lose that! I could possibly match speed OR quality, but I think minis this good this fast is a bit beyond me! Certainly game to try it at some point, though!

Thank you very much gents, I think this is just one of those models that is so detailed and well designed that it basically paint itself.

As for going against Paradigm in a speed competition, no way, I would get marmalised.

Loving your paintjob on Orghotts- genuinely disgusting looking as all servants of Papa Nurgle should be.

Man the detail on that Orghotts Daemonspew is brilliant! What is next up on the block!?!?!
