It's a beautiful paint job, and the conversions are masterful.


Thanks!

Yeah Slaanesh gets away with Lavender a lot more easily than loyalists

Moving flat out..

I think this army is hilarious !

I think it'd be even better if it laid the smack down on someone at a tournament..

Alas, they are just 'pretty' to look at..

My Wife just happened to look over my shoulder as I was looking at the pics and said she would play if she had an army that looked like that.

Technically excellent work, not my cup of tea, but nicely done. Also, I would rather face off against that army than any of the bare plastic forces that are so common.

Wouldn't you be afraid for your wife, though? Considering how seriously some people take their fluff and how most consider joke armies to be an affront to the hobby or them personally, I wouldn't be surprised if one or two people were willing to go to blows over it.

AshAxe you are about the 20th person to tell me that, you would not believe how many wives love this army.

Awesome technical skill. Pink is very hard to pull off without looking too much like Pepto-bismol (or other countries equivalent).

I'd gladly play against it.

--The whole concept of government granted and government regulated 'permits' and the accompanying government mandate for government approved firearms 'training' prior to being blessed by government with the privilege to carry arms in a government approved and regulated manner, flies directly in the face of the fundamental right to keep and bear arms.

I like it! It's so NOT grimdark! One needs to break from tradition so as not to choke on it... (My Russes have pin-up transfers and are called Naughty Lola and Suarabaya Jenny to help carry a Cabaret theme )

You shouldn't be worried about the one bullet with your name on it, Boldric. You should be worried about the ones labelled "to whom it may concern"-from Blackadder goes Forth!

Not a bit, I would be more concerned for her opponent as she is very, very competitive.

We play a game of toy soldiers set in a fictional universe. Really, if someone wants to fight over how someone painted an army, then that someone needs to grow up and seriously re-evaluate their priorities.

I just realized what this army reminds me of - the notion of the complete man from Samurai legend. We have beautiful people doing elegant things with a real sense of aesthetics who are ALSO deadly warriors.

I love this army, I really do. I think with very minor tweaks this could be an official Chapter which fitted perfectly into the canon of 40K.

..."minor" tweaks? I don't think so.

I agree. Minor tweaks. I mean, look at the fluff. The Emperor's Children weren't too far off from this (y'know, before the whole 'turning to Chaos for no real good reason' thing happened)
