well, I've been playing with WoC since the introduction of 8th and I've only just become comfortable with my force organisation and marks [mostly tzeentch with nurgle knights and slaaneshi horsemen] so I reckon it's about ******* time I picked up the paintbrush.

After making a renegade Inquisitor [well.... more of a radical...... uber radical] of Malal, I've been itching to use the colour scheme on a larger scale. I think the colours fit.

This is the only pic I have of that, I sold it along with a retinue so can't take a fresh pic

Well here are the WIP shots of my Exalted of Tzeentch,
Blue hints to black armour seemed just right for this one
The black and white skull of Malal and recurring black and
white cheques is going to be a running theme throughout
also note the weapons.... "DREADAXE THIRSTS FOR YOU!"



Don't reckon I'm winning any awards but I'm happy so far. Need to touch up that left eye that's spilling onto his cheek. Should be able to post the finished thing tomorrow and get some better pics, then onto my first troops.

Here's an award, great job so far, gona come back to see the finished product, love the blueness.

Black and blue definitely works. Love how it's looking so far.

Well I got this fella finished after breakfast and I'm gonna start on my Warriors tonight me thinks but first...... to work.

Yay for Malal!!!

Always been my favorite chaos god!

Your inquisitor is magnificent. The dark-blue armor is incredible!

yes yes yes, Malal is ace glad you likey.

Update; Improved shots of my Lord taken with a new camera.

Flock to taste.

Malal? Halved Black and White Skull? I like this!

Very cool pose on the renegade inquisitor!

hehe, props on the SoM army dude!

Here's the same colour scheme transferred onto my warhounds.

The only addition is that beast flesh/short fur is black with codex grey highlights.



and flock to taste... thats 2 units of 5 under the belt.

I really like the way you have done the fur and an overall great job on the warhounds.

I see some knights, so is that what we shall be seeing next?

That's some cool looking chaos warriors, I've been looking fore some inspiration for my own. Like!

Hmm, I approve, but I don;t see the traditional Malal colors here.

yes, yes, I know it's not entirely black on white.

I wanted to give my own take on it instead of trying to quarter up the miniatures.

It looks great on CSM's but I wasn't keen on the warrior equivalent [watch this space for SoM in the future.... and yes! they will have the traditional colour scheme].

However I did try not to stray too far from the mark as the armour is black but with a blue glow and the furs are white.
(And also it helps prevent peoples heads exploding when I run them with the MoT in game terms )

Indeed knights are on the way next, I've completed 3 already and the last 2 are almost done, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Friday by the latest.
Would be sooner but I've got a lot of work on over the next three weeks so my progress may be hindered slightly.

Thanks for looking

Indeed Knights we're the next on my agenda

Starting with an identical basecoat and wash


and the finished things.... deep breath...

Really nice! I've just been working on freehand banners for my stuff, and I love the crisp & clean lines you've achieved on yours.

The bases are a little rocky and coarse for my own tastes, but I really love the color scheme on these. The blue just has this overall quality that really draws the eyes.

Due to my collections getting out of control XD I am selling off the completed miniatures in the plog.

For anyone who is interested please check my lots out here http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/apsparks1

You are a stronger person than I. If I had painted something so beautifully, I don't think I'd have the heart to sell it. If I had money (and space now that I really think about it - I be nearing overload) I'd buy 'em all. They really are beautifully done.

well, I'm moving house in less than two weeks now and it's only really just hit me how much stuff I actually have since trying to box it all up! It was a hard decision but one that had to be made The only ongoing project I'm keeping is my orks.
