Some nice bright colors there KernelTerror.

Cheers,

CB

Many thanks friend ! Here is a dark commune to lead them !

Amazingly well done. Especially the daemonic face shrine.
Also cuthuluesque head of the congregation for certainly is having "fun".

Oh, the shiny eyes! Really elevates the miniatures, good and creepy job.

Those shining eyes are so bright, amazingly done!

Thank you so much friends ! Getting to the end of this monster of a squad, with the first of the torments painted :



Yuup, she's a big girl !

And three more completed !

Three more torments, and the squad is complete !




And the whole Dark Commune + Accursed cultists combo finished !


Well that was a lot of infantry... On my way to paint a vehicle now...

Great looking mob! Especially with so many weird sculpts mixed in. Loads of work but it's a pretty rad unit in game.

Many thanks Boss ! And yeah, they are wonderfull in game, my club is already starting to hate them ^^ !

And finished painting my forgefiend, another deadly model of the current CSM codex (including to itsself) !

Loving your alternative sculpts! Very clear what they are, and creative.

I really like your version of the forge fiend too. Very cool!

Many thanks friends ! Today I finished some plaguebearers !

Omg the nurglings got big! Very fun

Many thanks Gwyn ! Yeah, they are like small unclean ones. And very fun to paint, the texture on the sculpts was just waiting to receive oils !

Also finished a wardog today :


One is nowhere near enough though

And finished some nurglings today !

Seems like your Nurgle Tripp is awesome.
In output and painting.

Thanks a lot NotOnline ! Yeah nurgle is awesome to paint, much more fun than Tzeentch tbh ! Still, these flamers were long overdue :

And finished a tzeentch dreadnought !

You will always be the master of Slaanesh, but it's fun seeing you doing these other members of chaos.

I will always love a FW chaos boxnaut and should paint more of mine. Also glowy script ftw.

Thanks a lot Friends ! This new edition is indeed forcing me to add tons of new stuff to my collection, and indeed moove into non slaanesh territory ^^ All for the best, even if I do hope for a sonic detachment when the codex arrives !

Meanwhile, a fourth Obliterator completed !

And finished a birthday present for an eldar friend.

And finished some mandrakes !

The tzeentch flamers look amazing.

I am sure the Deldar was apreciated.

The Mandrakes are aswell amazing.

Thanks a lot Not Online, dark eldars are always appreciated, especially after I run them over in a tank !

Back, to heresy though, with my Chosen and Chaos lord finally painted !

They look amazing!

Thanks a lot Syro_ !

Finished painting a sigmar today

Loving all the chaos goodness on this page!

The obliterators are by far my favourite sculpt/paintjob. They give real "power rangers bad guy" vibes while managing to stay menacing. Well done!

I also love that the dead chaos guy under sigmar's feet carries the same iconic purple as the rest of his buddies...

Many thanks Tzurk !

Meanwhile, finished a Nurgle Rhino!

Gorgeous weathering and and OSL on the rhino mate, nice job. Don't touch the pustules!

That is simply amazingly done. But where are the contents of it?

Thanks a lot Folks !

@NotOnline: weeeeell, there are the slaanesh chosen above. Yeah, the current rules allow me to transport non nurgle thing in this disgusting transport. I eventually have ideas for nurgle chosen though, we'll see when the codex releases ^^!

Meanwhile, finished this Nurgle Venomcrawler

Brilliant stuff whenever I look at your blog I get the urge to buy a 3d printer!

Thanks a lot Llamahead !
Yeah, 3d printing is quite the rabbit hole, but I am very happy with the investment. Just be sure to consider all the practical aspects before jumping the gun (Workspace, Fume venting, resin handling, etc) !

Simply awesome Kernel.

Thanks a lot Friend !

Meanwhile, arms !

Are those arms for Knights?

Absolutely, for wardogs !

And some blue horrors !

Brimmstones aswell.

Love the smoll ones.

Finished some tyranids for a change !

That is a really nice old school scheme ontop of an amazingly well done job!

Impressive Kernel.

I'm getting a good glow effect on those Hormagaunts, matching that Venomcrawler. Nice!

Many thanks friends ! Yeah almost went through a full squad of test gaunts before eventually settling on Behemoth, but quite happy I did.

There will bu more bugs eventually, but today is dog day !

They look great. The dirty white is very well done.

I really like your style. Grim, but with eventual bright flashes of colour.

Great dog pack, KT, especially the paint Sculpts are nice and versatile, if a bit spindly

Very fancy indeed Kernel!

Thanks a lot friends, glad you approve !
3 more doggies of a different style plus a despoiler coming soon !

And finished the despoiler yesterday !

He is amazing.

Nice job on the horrors - lovely rich colours.

Palette choices are really shining on the knights too. The weathered white and colourful OSL are a bit of a departure from the norm but give off very cool used future sci fi vibes.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks a lot friends, with three more wardogs, this should do it for chaos knights for the moments, but I do have plans for more doggies, and big melee knights !

Nice, really like how organic and diseased the horns and cabling appear.

Darn they are adorable.

Love the horrid writing you have going in various places on them. It's very effective on the ivory/off-white.

Many thanks friends ! I pondered for a while whether I should go for my usual Emperor's Children colours, or try something new, glad you approve.
More heresy soon !

Those knights are excellet really distinctive colour scheme.

Thanks a lot Llamahead !
Work is starting slowly on other project, but in the meantime I painted wardog autocannons !

Finished some wracks today !

And more stupid elves :

I'm loving the evil, glowing greens, especially against the pinks and purples.

Loathsome space elves ...


Good looking wracks, I appreciate how glowy you've gone

Amazing work. Kernel, as allways.

Many thanks folks ! Currently detailing four talos to join then.

I'm really impressed with the glow from the visors too

Those are awesome excellent but not typical colours fo Dark Eldar cool.

Many thanks my friends, here are the next ones ! For Talos but so many arms is counts as having painted like 30 infantry models

Disgusting, in a very good way.

THanks a lot Muette ! And one last filthy elve for now !

And more bugs !

Nice nids and even the eldar scum

And more bugs !

Finished a bloodbowl team today !








Also a test model for some slaanesh legionnaires

THE COLORS

Glad to see you're keeping busy cranking out brightly colored things at high volume Blood Bowl team was definitely unexpected and a nice collection of weirdos. Dig the scheme on the marine, high effort though it may be!

That is a really impressive Pink!

Many thanks friends !
The pink is a base of AK Interactive itense pink, followed by a light oil wash of permanent pink, an a final highlight of permanent pink !

Looking amazing and ultra original as usual, kudos to you!.

I agree that the Blood Bowl team was a cool and unexpected surprise. They looks great and so does the Slaanesh legionary. Do you play Blood Bowl?

Many thanks friends !
Yeah @Syro_ I do play from time to time with a friend, not really in a competitive spirit though, more in a beer bowl mode !


Automatically Appended Next Post:
also finished a venowcrawler today, pretty excited for the new daemon engine detachment !

That looks far better than the normal one!
Printed or scratchbuilt?

That is a printed one yeah, looks indeed quite savage ^^ !

And finished my lancer ! Can't wait to stab something !

Love the round buckler shield - is that custom?

Thanks a lot Gwyn ! The buckler is part of the knight's files, I just added some twisted metal wires in order to do the sparks.

That is amazing. BTW, where did you get the tech thralls in pic 3 ?

Thanks a lot Not Online !
The tech thralls are an old 3d print from Solwyte studio, no longer available, but there is a new better version available now.

That's great that you get to play. I like your venom crawler and lancer

Thanks friend !
Finished some legionnaires today !

Great squad! Awesome colors and I dig the sculpts. I always respect a quartering (or close enough) scheme, especially when it's got endless trim going on too

Thanks a lot Boss ! Yeah...So much trim, almost took me a year to find the courage to finish painting this squad actually !

Finished three more wardogs today !

And a group shot of my renegade household !

I was just thinking that you must have amassed quite a few knights by now! New pups look good, cool style and still pretty imposing despite being small 'uns. Nice long weapons help

That is an impressive gaggle of giant robots.

Many thanks folks ! I'll try to focus a bit on CSM and demons now, but I do have a rampager and a porphyrion coming next for the knights. Then probably three more wardogs !

Bömber? Really, that perfect gothic script and then you pull this one

But beyond that... sheeesh all of em are amazing. Every. Single. One. Of. Them!

Ahaha that was intended, all my big knights will be named after motörhead songs, hence the arbitrary "ö" (the lancer it "Coup de Grace").
Wardogs also get a name if they behave well in battle, one of them exploded and denied my opponent a gakload of primaries, so it is now named "Sacrifice".

And finished a demon chariot !

Wow, disturbing!! The model is great, and the paint job enhances the weird look. Good job!

Thanks a lot Muette ! I have an entier slaanesh cavalry not too far in the backlog, can't wait to finish them all !

And finished an Ogre bloodbowl team !

I never knew that i needed khorne ogres.
Well done. I now need another thing...

And finished the latest addition to my soulforged warp pact, will count as a maulerfiend !

I love the pure chaos of this.

Garbage disposal slug!

Many thanks folks, it is indeed ready to dispose of many xenos or loyalists !

Awesome paint job on that cool model too.

Thanks a lot Syro_ ! Finished a warpsmith to take care of it tonight !

That's looking nice too
Every time I visit your blog I feel the temptation to put my current hobby projects on hold and switch back to working on my chaos armies.

That maulerfiend is sweet, which is to say "gross." I like the contrast between the olive drab armor and the pink fleshy bits. I'm curious to hear how you made the drool.

That slug! Amazing, once again showing why you are one of the best converters in this hobby all things chaos!

Also the babysitter for it looks amazing aswell.

Much appreciated folks ! @JoshInJapan: the drool is made of a mix of uhu glue and nazdreg yellow contrast. It then received a watch of more nazdreg yellow and vallejo dark rust wash.

Lovely work on the Chaos gribblies here, mate. Impressive to witness the scale of the Knights army you've been working on too!

Love the colour scheme of the pink/black guys with the pops of green, really contrasts with the grunginess of the knights force.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks a lot Tzurk !
Here is another caretaker for the Daemon engines !

I love the vibrancy of your color palette throughout your minis, especially the Slaanesh chariot!

EDIT: The image works :-) Looking amazing.

I can see it.

I like the forward motion feeling it has, while staying firmly on the ground. An example of how a model can be dynamic without leaping.

Many thanks folks !
Yeah this is odd, I too got a broken image when redisplaying the page, and went away after a refresh...Maybe too many high res pics in this page ?

It's been happening in multiple places on dakka for me, not just your page.

Understood, thanks for the precision Syro !

Also finished a winged prime this evening !

Very fancy indeed.

Very nice color scheme, and nice conversion. Really liked your Mauler Fiend as well.

Thanks gents !
Finished some warp talons today !

The wings on that nid are gorgeous, great work!

Lovely pallet on the warp talons, too. It's not easy to make pink and purple work but they work, and the green eyes really pop.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks a lot Tzurk !

Finished a third warpsmith today !


And the three of them together:

Oh, very fancy`!

The idea of a Slaaneshi warpsmith is pretty interesting. They look very good.

Ohhh I love that Slaanesh WarpSmith, first time I see one!

Loving the Slaanesh Warpsmith (plus the other ones, to be fair!) but I'm more curious how you got the iridescent effect on the purple armor for a lot of your minis.

Thanks a lot gents ! He might be my favourite of the three as well, probably before he was assembled from leftovers and duplicate parts of the other two ^^ !

@Blockade23: Well I start on a base of Vallejo Blue Violet (811), then a layer of GrenStuffWorld metal color persian violet. Then on the middle of the largest armour plates, two or three thin layers of greenstuffworld colorshift pinky blue, to give the iridescent effect. Finally, I add an oil mayer of Lefranc Bourgeois Dioxazine violet, and remove most of it with a Q Tip after a few hours in order to expose the iridescent effect at the center of the plats. Finally, once dry, an extra thin oil wash of pure black.

Finished two maulerfriends today !

Coool! Those are awesome, sense of power whilst also being creepy

WOW those are some beasties! I'm guessing the sculpts are teched up not-Tyranid monster (Toxicrene/Maleceptor?) but work great as angery tentacled maulerfiends

Many thanks friends !
And indeed Boss, these are from the TMC Iron Hive line, but should do perfectly as daemon engines !

They are amazing !

Lovely work on those big greeblies. Really enjoying the BRIGHT pink pops and the mankiness of both the flesh and the metallic parts.

Speaking of manky - not sure if it was intentional or not but the sickly yellow around the latest warpsmith's mouth makes me think he has a gnarly staph infection which is both thematic and gronky.

Thanks for sharing!

Much appreciated gents !
@Tzurk: Many thanks for noticing, yes, this is intended, I gave him a mouthwash of nazdreg yellow just after finishing his face. He is either drooling warp stuff, or has been chugging daemon engine motor oil before the battle !

Awesome daemon engines! I like what you did with them.

And finished a slaanesh forgefiend !

I get the feeling that would look silly if not for the intense paint job you've put on. The face looks genuinely horrifying.

Ahahah thanks Captain ! Yeah that was a risky choice, but I really wanted to give it a try. Hopefully it looks more slaaneshi creepy than silly in the end ^^ !

Oh it works, for me at least. Its like if Pennywise from IT went after a kid who liked 40K, that's what he'd turn into.

That one... is disturbing.

Great job kernel

Much appreciated folks !
In a completely different style, here is a Lord of Skulls !

There's something cheerful about that face.

Might be a dumb question but is this a 3D print? I thought it was a conversion at first but the parts are very different to the stock Lord.

These last big pieces look fantastic, great job!!

Thanks folks !

@Cap'N Facebeard, yeah the model is 3d printed, this is heroes's infinite version. I just replaced the head with an upscaled 3d printed khorne marine head. And yeah, it looks like one big smile ^^ !

Love the Daemon Engines, both are properly disturbing.

The Lord of Skulls is a big improvement over the GW model. Wouls love to see something based on the old Slaanesh titans.

Many thanks friends !

@Llamahead: So would I, I do have some files for a sonic knight, which would make for a brilliant despoiler, and somebody in thingiverse did make a subjugator.

I Think I'll still wait for the EC codex before comitting though. I'd be surprised if GW did release a new titanic, since they have not done so in a while, but well, one can dream ^^

Great job on the LOS! I picked this up too, someday I'll print one on my tiny printer

Those maulerfiends look absolutely terrifying. Your lord of skulls is also qiite impressive. Just fantastic work all around.

Loving the neon pinks on the Slaneeshi mecha, Lord of Battle looks like a true monstrosity too. Always a pleasure dropping in, Kernel.

I love your Lord of Skulls, beautiful job painting it. I like the head choice too.

Many thanks to you all friends ! Glad you approve. I'm bringing the Lord of Skulls to an RTT at the end of the month, mostly for the "fun" of attempting to drive it through WTC terrain ^^ !

Bien joué gros!

The flames on the lord of skulls are truly convincing.

So, you made a Lord of skull thingy that actually looks amazing!

Much appreciated folks !

After all these big engines, I am now moving back to infantry now though, starting with some cultists :

Looking proper evils
Where did you get these minis?

Creepy dudes with cool machine pistols

Thanks folks !
@Marechal de Logis Walter, they are name HazMat Infantry, from The Makers Cult.

Hell, I need to get my self some fluor paints, those visors look amazing,.

Going through this blog from the beginning but I want to say now I LOVE the Space Crusade dread build. I always love seeing the oldies brought out.

@Muette: Yeah, I ended up addicted to fluor paints ^^ ! In this case, I was trying out Vallejo Game Color Fluorescent red (72.157), and I must say I a very fond of the thing.

@Tek: Wow, good luck getting through the thing ^^. Reminds me that I have some space crusade inspired STLs that I need to try out...

The cultists look GREAT in mass! Glowing eyes are really ominous against all the grime.

Thanks boss !

More infantry today, with some legionnaires:

Wow, I wouldn't have thought pink and black would work out that good. True nice slaaneshi stuff.

Love the guy with the little statue on his shoulder

The cultists look like they are armed with Nailguns Love it.

Fantastic work. I love that bright hot pink armor. The posing and details of your marines really conveys their devotion to sensation and intensity. Looks great!

Thank you so much gents !

Finished a bike champion today !

Doomrider!!

I definitely need to make a doomrider some day yeah, maybe maulefriend or discolord sized ? I very much doubt he'll be in the EC codex, but who knows...

Meanwhile, here is Cypher :

And with Cypher done, I am ready for tomorrow's tournament ! The Goal is to not get trampled too much ^^ !

Hoping you did well in the Tournament! Man those cultists are awesome with the fluor effects

Aye. That is most certainly the most customised if one of the best armies.

Wow, the army looks great! I hope you did good at your tournament. The only tournament I ever went to I came in dead last. They gave me a dice set for my troubles.

Thanks a lot gents ! I went 2 Victories and 3 defeats, so pretty happy with my performance considering the pretty high level of my opponents and the shortcomings of my list (that many vehicle against Wotann was a slaughter ^^).
Five great games with five great opponents, and a brilliant weekend !

Finished some seekers today !

For whatever reason, the enormous stockings on the worms are really funny to me

Vibrant as hell colors per usual, nice blending as well, especially on the worms

Amazing job Kernel! Simply looking magnificently glowy!

Thanks a lot gents ! And yeah Boss Salvage, the mount size spikey socks are awesomely slaaneshy !

And the five last seekers !

And one last mounted demon thing, with this seeker chariot count as :

Whew, I'll have to stop looking at this thread at work

Ahahah sorry about that Cap'n Facebeard ! I'm done with slaanesh daemons for a moment though ^^ !

There ! Still pink, but perfectly safe for work !

And completed Vashtorr today !

Finished my third forgefiend today !

Ahhh. An proper threatening Vashtor and a nice cerberit variant i belive. GW plastic or printed?

Thanks mate ! Yeah both of them are printed !

Great looking Vashtorr, far superior sculpt IMO and you crushed it. Love the horrors as well, great art match there. Crisp thumbs up for the angry round-boy forge-fiend

Thanks a lot Boss !

Finished a predator today ! One more tank after this one to complete before the teams event this weekend, I'm hyped !

And now a vindicator !

Sweet tanks! Love the glowing text and grimy plow on the vindicator

Thanks a lot Boss ! They were really fun to paint !

Today, I finished some traitor guard special weapons:

Looking good, very creepy feel to these guys

Very fancy!

There is something about the Deimos Pattern Pred that just looks right.

Great job!

Thanks friends !

Finished a different kind of renegade guards today:

Very nice, I like the turbans. Are some of these parts AoS hobgrots?

Thanks Cap'n ! And no, these are unmodified stationforge files.

They look really cool, KernelTerror Something about how you painted the crab claw and leg really stand out to me. Wonderful.

I love the colors you use! They just perfectly pop.

My, aren't these some fancy lads! They have a great theme. I have to follow on what Lathe said, lovely color choices.

Thanks a lot friends !

Now one of the most heavy metal model of the grimdark future:

Those latest updates are excellent as usual. The renegade guard could easily proxy as one of the factions of the new Trench Crusade game.

Wow, BEAUTIFUL brass scorpion, Kernel! Great job!

Great job on the scorp! Some day I'll build my FW one

Thanks a lot friends, that was a very satisfying beast to paint and build !

Wow! That Brass Scorpion looks great!

Thanks a lot Syro_ !

Another leggy creature today, with this soulgrinder !

Wow, she's beautiful! You know, in a chaos corrupted, sexy spider sort of way.

Thanks Warboss !

Back to khorne today though, with these three eightbounds !

Late to comment, but wanted to say I really like that Brass Scorpion. It's normally a mini I don't like, but something about your scheme and the posing makes it look much better here

Thanks Cap'n ! Yeah this design kind of looks a bit out of place compared to the more recent daemon engines, and it might not be helped by the very clean paintjobs of the usual showcase models.
I went for dirty metal and plates as usual and I am pretty happy with the result, although I used to feel the same as you before starting.
I'm bringing it to a fun tournament next week alongside my lord of skulls, should be wack ^^ !

And finished some terminators today !

Best pattern of terminator armor! But make it Chaos <3

Thanks boss ! I am taking them to a tournament this weekend should be fun !

Finished two squads of raptor today !

I love how disturbingly pink those mutations look. Overall great work from you. Always good to see your updates, Kernel.

Thanks a lot Warboss !

Small change today with some gaslands cars !

looking grim and beautiful!!

Thanks a lot Muette !
Back to 40k though, with these four venoms for a xenos friend of mine.

Finished ten warp talons today !

That's a cool take on warp talons Definitely a good look for Emperors Children.

Thanks Syro ! More flying idiots today !

Back to chaos with a fly lord today !

And more slaanesh with these possessed !

I love your paint jobs on these. The use of colour is so expressive and painterly. Some great models and you're really doing them justice.

Also, is that the Soul Edge?!

Thanks Tek ! And yes, this is absolutely Soul Edge !

And with the birds painted, the beastmaster pack is now finished ! Hopefully it will see play more than once before being sent to legends ^^ !

And ten more possessed !

The birds and the possessed look amazing I find the possessed holding the cylindrical piece of machinery with the pink feminine creature coming out to be particularly eye catching. Is that a containment unit? What is the creature?

Thanks a lot Syro_ !
The possessed in question is the icon bearer of the squad, so the idea is that is carries a daemon vessel carrying the daemonette they worship, and that they are releasing her for battle. It took the vessel from a downscaled defiler tank (my daemon tachikoma one) and added a downscaled greater daemon by MadMinis. After painting it added some UV pink colored resin in order to obtain the slimy effect, I'm quite happy how it turned out !

Amazing. Simply amazing.

Thanks a lot NotOnline !
Finished some tormentors today ! First tournament with EC this saturday is coming fast, and I still have a bunch of models to paint :

Finished same flawless blades and a kakophonist yesterday !

And completing this weekend's tournament's army with some infractors, and a lord exultant !

And another tournament this weekend, team tournament this time, which I will be attending with my 30 possessed in creations of bile ! Just finished the last models !
April has been quite a painting marathon, I shall enjoy slowing down in may !

Wow I have not posted in a while, I should have a bunch of updates this week, as I get ready for an RTT next weekend, starting with a first WDP:



Automatically Appended Next Post:
And just finished a second demon prince !

Finished two rhinos today !

And another demon prince today !

Very fancy. Perfectly snazy and blingy, captured EC to the core.

Thanks a lot friend !
Finished some brand new noise marines and a custom kakophonist today !

Darn, your output is amazing!

How large is that army as of yet?

Very nice work KernelTerror.

Cheers,

CB

Thanks a lot folks !
@NotOnline: For emperors children** alone I should be around 2500 painted points, not counting slaanesh demons I already had. Theres more to be painted during the summer though ^^. And yeah, I am currently rush painting a 2K army for a tournament tomorrow, only the final touch ups to to add to the last daemonettes and I'll be ready !

**By emperors children, I am not counting all of my CSMs, that are still painted purple and are totally ECs in my heart ^

Finished a MOTORHEAD rampager to celebrate the new CK codex !

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD !

Amazing! And your productivity man, keep on it!

Thanks a lot Muette ! More knights to come for sure !

Dude the details on these knights is exquisite. Excellent freehand detailing! Very impressive.

Thanks a lot Blockade !

Small break in the heresy with some tau, before diving back in CKs and ECs!
