So after first picking up the Warriors of Chaos book I have been toying with the idea of a throgg army and I have talked myself out of it many a time. But after getting a great deal on 12 Minotaurs I knew what must be done.
Here is a list of what to expect on the painting and converting table

24 Minotaurs (not all GW)
80 Marauders
6 Dragon Ogres
Stonehorn
Warshrine
BSB
And Throgg himself!

The Trolls








Chariot


Giant


To Paint Tonight!


And the WIP of Throgg before his base

Dam dude this looks pretty cool.

Looks freakin sick dude... Love the Throgg model a lot

Nice nice.

i dig the red and throgg looks super angry awesome.

Throgg's based off of a Dire Troll Mauler, right? I really like it! And I think the whole ensemble of models is working, too

Yah he is based off a DireTroll Mauler, though he is a major pain to fit in his unit. And the fact that RiTides likes my blogg just brings a smile to my face!

Nice use of the Dire Troll Mauler also I like the idea of the Jggernaught hauled chariot

Cool pics. I like the minotaurs alot. Nice choice going with angry red steaming mad bull

Updates!

Since this picture halve the marauders have been painted


My Warshrine/ BSB in Chariot


And a sneak peak

How did you paint the shoulder pads?

Very cool start. Always enjoy a good monster army

Marauders (there are about 60 of these guys painted but honestly they all look the same)


BSB on foot


Chaos Lord on Foot (Very WIP)




And now for a few things that have nothing to do with this blog!


And a HPA

Armyshots and Sneakpeaks!



The Minotaurs (got the final few coming in the mail!)


The Characters






The Giants




The Herdstone


Marauders

So I have finally started my empire much to my delight. Here is what is on the painting table this month



Here is my waralter conversion.




Powered by faith!


And one of my favorite warmachine models to date


And some random terrain I have been working on

The power of Krylon compels me!


Added tons of books to the waralter


Silly three cannon limit


Kit bashed warrior priest


Two engineers


And my wizard can anyone identify this model?

So after hours of painting I finally have something to show that I am very proud of.

Just painted 5 Swordsmen and a realised something... I do not have the heart to paint up all 3k the way i did my beastmen. So I am going down and buying some dip on thursday and just taking the cheating way out. Characters and such will still be done with TLC but not 80 halberdiers or 50 swordsmen or anything like that

I really like that tower thing! I don't blame you for being proud!

So many books!

I love the WoC Warshrine! Its very similar to what I had planned for the one I'm making for my Nurgle army.

So with paints and wash in hand I went at my empire with the vengeance of a thunderbolt!

Warmachines and their crew






And my favorite crew member


The Engineers


Random Wizard


My Greatswords


My swordsmen


Their banners (plus the halberd banner whose unit has yet to be painted)


And lastly a unit filler. Hanz the Brew-Master

They are really coming along!

Mahoosive amounts of win here, Crass! Keep it up, dude!

Wow thanks Casey! I am just finishing up the warrior priests, peg captain and halberdiers as I have this armys first tournament on the 25th. Also everything you see has been based and pictures shortly as my camera regenera.. I mean recharges

Some pictures with basing as promised

So saying I paint like a machine would be giving machines to much credit :tongue:

Near finished ghoul king (Paint looks thick on the face but really it is just the picture)









And the Banshee finished up mostly, nothing really to be wowed by but hey I like her

The ghoul king looks cool =)

And where is the Banshee model from? I cant place it.

The Banshee is from Reaper and I think looking at her in the daylight she needs some highlights

Are those for the Empire army?

A nights work












And some sneak peeks




And finally a comparison shot between the king and his minions

Wow good work for a single night!

Skellies (I have 25 done now but they all look the same even though they are three different eras of skellie ranges :tongue: )


Unit fillers


Varghulf




Necromancer (Pictures turned out Horrid on him this is the only half decent one)


Reworked the ethereal color. Votes?


And the Big boy Vlad




And some WIP

I likes it all!

Really glad I stumbled across this, your models are lovely especially the ghosts But I have to ask.

May we see -more- of your Beastmen? I need inspiration to finish mine.

I'm really liking those ghouls I'm guessing you have a list for this army, whats it consist of? if you don't mind me asking to see it xD

Here is the total model count as of now. If you mean army lists I am testing a few in the WHFB Lists section and while I think I may of found one I like I am not to sure yet.

Here are some. I tried to paint all my beastmen in three days ( 3k points) I failed but did manage to paint half.

3 days 3k points....ARE YOU CRAZY!

I managed to do 1500 and a giant. It was a good test of the ole skills

I must say touche, I could not handle trying to complete that much that quick! Maybe a squad for me, but not an army.

It made me hate painting Gors though... So sits 25 of the buggers with shields. Primed Red....

But on to more exciting things I just got a dragon!

What kind of dragon, and do you ever not have a basic suicide girl as your avatar?

It is the same girl every time and she is the front(wo)man for the band The Distillers.

Also it is a great dragon sculpt from reaper.

In other news I just painted 30 zombies and I want to shoot myself... Only 50 more to go!

That's exactly why I gave up my skaven, sept replace 50 more to go with 260 and thats the slaves/clanrats lol xD I do not envy you.

My Ork Horde is the same concept, a little bit of red, a lotta bit of green!

I am more into the girl that posed for the casualties 8 years ago, now she was a foxy lady!

Painted another batch of 20 zombies. I am soo close to my goal!

What is your goal currently?

Also Pics or your lying my friend!

Finish all my core this month and do you want terrible I-Phone pics or good pics once I get my camera? Your vote Dakka!

A couple teaser pictures until I get my camera back


And the finished (besides basing) army as a whole

Real pictures!

What model is that last WiP of o.o the one with the sword and the orb?

Also, awe Zombies, nostalgia lol. Remember playing VC when I was like 14 or something, full units zombies + command, win combat res generate automatic flee and chase down.

Those were quick games xD

Zoombees!!!!!!!!

So I am teaching my local group some basic painting stuff like I was taught way back in the day (We have alot of new blood to the hobby right now). I am really enjoying myself.

On a sadder note my table I made took a tumble and is beyond repair. But that means I get to make a new one!

Those are some gruesome zombies. I also really like the beastmen, they are pretty sweet.

TABLE Destruction!

A picture my buddy took of my Beastmen during one of our games I just unearthed




Painted/ Converted Terrorghiest coming soon!

So many Black Beastmen...

Can't wait to see the Terrorgeist!

Behold my horrid freehand skills!




My newest Necromancer, anyone who can name where he is from gets a free cookie!


A Vampire just because I need more


Picture of my Dragon


And some batswarms


And finally who does not like Marauder minis (Got a good 50 of em stripped )

Do you need some more bat swarms? Also Is the Necromancer from Holy Grail?

Nah I have around 8 batswarms hahah. I only use them because spirit hosts are so comped

I just need to gloat a second, because in a couple days I will be the proud owner of a Coven Throne bought by my lovely lady.

And it will be just in time too as I have to paint it up by the 21st (our anniversary and the second tournament of the season)

good stuff man! I definitely don't envy all that work...

Will you be at the COC good Doctor?

Ok man, i was gonna say i have a bunch of spirit host and bat swarm models you could have if ya needed them!

So a very exciting day at the JC house.
I am in the building n' repairing 40 KOTR and have another 20 on the way.

My coven throne should be here in a few days and I just got this in the mail

There ya go man!

Still unsure. I'd like to, but my schoolwork will determine my mental fortitude and/or available free time. ...and the fact I may be short my Hammerers! >_>

So I got taken into the E.R on tuesday and it turns out I had three stones in my gall bladder. So they did surgery and remove the whole bladder. But during that time I got a corpse cart, 20 Grave Guard, Terrorghiest and my Coven Throne all NIB.

Cant keep a hobbyest down

Hell yeah, you get those models done!

BTW I threw some updates up!

Just finished my Coven Throne!
















A special gift from a friend of mine

So how did you do that stone on that coven throne?

The stonework is
Bubonic Brown
Dwarf Bronze
Gryphon Sepia
Blue Wash

Where did you get that recipe

Made it myself through trail and error

Those stones look fantastic. I am stealing your recipe shamelessly.

Sorry about your gall bladder :(
At least some good came of it, I guess.

I will also steal it for something. ~Evil Grin~

A little project I am working on for a friend and fellow VC player. Working with a color I am very colorblind too was a bit of a hassle but here is his WIP. Hope you like him

Here is him after about 15 minutes of work


And here he is after 2 hours though my painting light kind of bleached out the camera phone picture a bit

Here is a Bret Chariot I am working on just because




I will get some more pictures up after I finish magnetizing it

Keeping the updates coming even though no one reads!

So here is my Vampire BSB as he evolved (props for the first one the guess the mini)

First step I begin my bronze/gold recipe


Then a red base paint, a bronze and a sepia wash later we are here


My blue and black washes get tossed around a bit


Here is him just missing something to stand on


And him finally mounted on my pride n joy

I like the progress, he looks good there..I just finished painting the Warhounds, I just need to finish their bases.

Are you alive man? Have not heard from ya in a while!

Yah sadlly not much painting action. Mostly converting tons of models up though I will have a big double update soonish

Yeah i need to get my army to my friends for the lightbox photo shoot!

Glad your alive and well

A sneak peak

AWESOME

One last sneak peak before I get him in my light box

All its birdy ness!

So here is a few little pictures of a WIP birthday present I am making for a friend

Nice work on the models, the paintings excellent and you are certainly making good progress. The graveyard stones base looks perfect, perhaps some fallen leaves would add to it. Hope your surgery went well, and I wish you a swift recovery.

Nice to have finally found your thread
Drum

That a marker?

A base for a scenic model

Well its looking good!

A almost near complete pic of a Ogre Slaughter Master I am painting for a friend

My friend painted it for me as a birthday present of sorts

So I have been slaving to the grind on my spare time to finish my super secret project and now I present it to you in its finished glory!

Hmm can see everything but her face

So I have started work on my Chaos Dwarves slowly but surely. Here is what I have to show for a week and a half of working on and off.

Have about 20 in this stage


And then some of the more finished ones








I also have a Iron Daemon on the way and some other goodies

I like the helmet idea but near the rims it doesnt look so complete.

Pope Hat!

So I begin my basing

For my Destroyer


And a few mock-ups of how some of my models on their new bases


And something of a sneak peek. His beard needs touching up

Iron Daemon and Prophet updates ahoy!

I like your siege tank!

Got my Iron Daemon all painted up. Enjoy

Ladies and Gentlemen. Boys and Ghouls. I give you my BSB

Goodness, Gracious, Greatballs of Fire! (Prophet finished)

Looks awesome

So here is my Lvl 2 and the unit champ for my Infernal Guard

You all thought I let this blog die right? Wrong!


Chaos Dwarf Muso. Also finished sculpting up a unit of fireglaives but I cant seem to get a decent picture on my phone of them.



And my fireborn who have started to get a few licks of paint on them after this photot was taken.

Some scale shots

Wow, I haven't checked out your thread in quite a while (hell... I finally just updated my own ) and I'm loving it!

I must admit I'm especially glad that the Maulerfiend fits nice and snug on an Arachnarok base since I'm planning to use it as filler for my Skullcrusher unit, or simply as my Lord's Juggernaught!

Cant wait to see how you paint it.

Not really painting but it is artsy
