ALRIGHT, so i have been laxing for a a long time, as my Tau project got the better of me, bu now that the majority of that is done, I can get bakc to working on this in my free time, but I need some help... I am looking for a base model to use or convert to act as hell princes and barons of hell, you know, the 15 foot tall goatmen that take way too much to die? hahaha, beastmen come to mind but are they large enough? I might be able to use their heads, but I am thinking their overall mass is in no way nearly as big...

Oh, I have, but fluff wise some of the units are difficult to match, but I definitely could. I have this big list, of everything doom, and on either side, equivilants to deamons and Nids that can be matched. Nids just fit the bill overall more so than Deamons, and fluff wise, as the DOOM legions are a biomass invading army, bred in factories in assembly lines, it just sounds so...niddy to me

This is utterly cool. The Beastmen models would be far to small for the 15ft tall goatmen possibly the minotaurs would make a better base. I'm also hoping to see keycard objective markers and lots of barrels, lava, ammo containers and med-packs on the bases!

He'd be the first to tell you to stop puling and start planning. Because what we are doing-at risk to ourselves-is what we have sworn to do. The West relies on us. It is a risk we take with pride. It is an oath we honour.

I'd start with minotaurs or the like. Standard beastmen are too small.

also, for imps I suggest you use bloodletters with shaved off horns, similar to the iron pact Daemons.

Yeah I did use bloodletters for the imps, I will post pics tonight of them and the zombies. I saw the minotaurs, they just dont look right to me, I am thinking I might get the beastmen to check the head size, or simply do scratchbuilds since I will probably only need 8 of them.

Ok so Ive been REALLY lax for a while now, I know I know... BUT graduating college took priority over everything. But even with that going on, I managed to finish modelling the arachnotrons, painted them, and finished the imps and painted them. I also repainted the cyberdemon to a much higher quality. Enjoy!

So, as said before, posting some new stuff pics, unfortunately the weather has been largely uncooperative for light, and my lightbox needs fixin, so I am making due with what I have. Ill start with the imps, finsihed conversion wise, but are going to be repainted for definition, what you see is basically a first coat, just so they can be seen for how they should look!


Back filled in where spiny bitz were...


next the new arachnotrons(aka mini spiders) I am thankful they are complete, scratchbuilding their legs without square tubing is a pain in the butt... Once again, they need to be refined, only the first coat applied...



and lastly the repaint of the cyber/steam demon. The light is really killing me with him, but to tell what cannot be seen, he has been givin pink tenderness where the flesh meats the metal, his right arm has been further cyberized, and overall his flesh holds better transitions and is smoother.



and a group shot...


Enjoy!!

You know I love the overall origonalityof this, and though the paint is good table top quality, the whole conversion, and theme to it make the models that much better. Great job man what do you have planned next?

Listen, my children, as I pass onto you the truth behind Willy Wonka and his factory. For every wonka bar ever created in existance, Mr. Wonka sacraficed a single Oompa Loompa to the god of chocolate, Hearshys. Then, he drank the blood of the fallen orange men because he fed them a constant supply of sugary chocolate so they all became diabetic and had creamy, sweet-tasting blood that willy could put into each and every Wonka bar. That is the REAL story behind willy wonka's Slaughter House!

@Empchild- SO next on my list if to finish the first set of zombies(fodder spinegaunts), then touch up the imps and the aracnotrons. From that point, I might delay making any more until the nid codex comes out, though because its poking me in the face, I will probably construct one fatboy(mancubus), one pumpkin(cacodemon) and a test baron of hell, probably a baron first because with warriors becoming troops i KNOW I am going to have an elite(as in heavier upgrade wise) small squad of warriors to be barons, and a larger, or couple larger squads to be hell knights. I might have a friend who cast my crisis suit parts cast the head or heads I make for them.

BTW, wouldn't this army work better as a CSM army?

SpiderMind=Defiler
Archatrons=obliterators/predators?
IMPs=demons


Just think that CMS wouled reflect the DooM enemies' character more... at least more than nids would

You see, this brings up the same issue I had with the army counting as chaos demons. The survivabilty of vehicles simply doesn't reflect the high HP nature of enemies like the spidermind and cyberdemon. As well, considering according to the fluff of DOOM, the legions of hell, save the spiderminds, are all made on factory lines. Their technology is all based on organics as well, so for this reason, I prefered to use the nid codex. Think, a spidermind has a minigun and uses horrific images against enemies, dakka tyrant blasts things to pieces, and has a naturally ability called 'The horror', it just fits so well, and as the spidermind is the HQ of the legions of hell, it works that a tyrant is commander as well.

The cyberdemon in my eyes just screams carnifex. Not to mention, he can have his rocket launcher in the form of the S8 large blast barbed strangler, and can have upgrades similar to an uberfex that make him horrendously difficult to kill.

Imps are fodder factory assembled monsters that through burning loogies, hence WoN termagants with fleshborers...fleshborers=burning snotballs

Nids have zoanthropes, literal brains that fire blasts of concentrated warp plasma...Arachnotrons anyone?

CSM simply do not have the units to support the rest of the minions of hell as well, like pumpkins, fatboys and swarms of lost souls. Nids just fits so congruently with all of DOOM. I can only hope things don't drastically change with the new codex, which is why after the marines I may only make some objective markers, awaiting the new dex.
