I wanted to add some Khorne Berzerkers to my primarily Nurgle themed army. So rather than go for the standard reds and such, I went more with browns and paler colors. So here are the first two Berzerkers I made:









Any suggestions to make them better?

Looks pretty cool. What do you plan on doing with the red guns?

Hmm...I was thinking some contrasting colors to draw some focus to them. CC weapons are also plain as well.

Suggestions?

They look pretty cool in nurgles colors.

I used a previous model I painted as an inspiration for their color scheme:

I like the red in the helmet, but you could make it a bit lighter and more shiny.

I also liked the fact that Khorne ''lends'' his berserkers to help a fellow chaos god (which is usually extremely unlikely) .

Oh! and if you can put freehand details on the shoulderpads.

No, just Nurgle and Slaanesh, Jesus will be sold seperately in a blister.

Reminds me of a dried blood kind of color.

Ask yourself: have you rated a gallery image today?

Yes, very dried blood. I think a little more contrast is needed though. maybe paint thier helmets red to represent their devotion to Khorne, not Nurgle?

I also love the spooky shadows.

Thanks for the tips guys and the suggestions.

@MADLarkin- I was considering the red for their helmets, but in the end opted for the green metal color. I could tinker around with it.

As for shoulder icons, what would look good?

I'll just recycle my preivous suggestion. I think they need more red, so do the shoulder guards in Khorne's colors.

So wait... they are Khorne berserkerz who worship Nurgle

Here is an update to the Khorne Berzerkers:

The new addition are resin bases and a Skull Champion.

The Champion needs a bit more work.
