Great idea using the Inquisitor Assassins for the Daemon Princes! From what I can see these armies look amazing, but I'd like to see bigger/ zoomable pictures!
*edit, just seen the links in your sig, sorry.

Seconded. I am thoroughly impressed by that army. I have always like Slaanesh armies and that is a prime example of why.

My EC are nowhere near as well painted as that... :(
Automatically Appended Next Post: Okay, here are mine:
Bit of background. This army is a mishmash of Imperial, Chaos, xenos, and other random bits thrown in. It is only painted to a tabletop standard and does NOT showcase my best abilities. I'd say the purple squad painted in pre-Heresy colors is a good approximation of my usual standard, but I am always improving and always learning, practicing regularly. Anyway,
This is my first squad. All of my squads contain at least one member of the infamous "Special Children". They are known for their bizarre and freakish mutations. Fun activity - try and spot them all!. Incidentally, this squad also contains a converted scout. I run him as a normal Chaos Marine, and fluff wise I can only think of one explanation - the Emperor's Children are recruiting teenagers! Seems like a good tactic...what with teenagers being very HORMONAL and all.
Second squad, also lead by a "Special" Child. I run him as a Noise Champion with a doom siren usually, as that is what the flute-like mouthpeice built into his helmet represents.
Another squad, with another Special leader. Seeing the pattern?
More squads.
A dreadnought. I actually quite like this kid. Thus I took a better picture of him:
A squad painted in the preheresy colors. These guys I'm proud of, and are the best approximation of my skills. If you look, the armor gradient is all wet blended. While it doesn't show up on camera, you can sort of see it on the shoulder plates.
A pre-heresy predator. This was converted to roughly resemble the Deimos pattern.
Another pre heresy predator.
And now I'm done.

Here's a few of my Marines. Still waiting on the new Chaos Codex before I put more money into my Emperor's Children. Aiming for a post-heresy group of EC; no mutations or gak, just pure debauchery and mixed up equipment! I never did highlight this 10-man squad... Still on my to-do list.

Latest army shot I've done, missing a few things in it now...
All 30 Daemonettes so far on a summoning circle ("skyshield").
Iluni, Elegant Huntress. The Keeper of Secrets.
First squad of Horrors.
Fiends. Need to update the group shot as it's two short now.
Then the start of the Flamers.
Still have to paint the second squad of horrors, masque, build another 4 flamers for the minimum, 3 chariots and two soulgrinders. Of course out of those the only models I still need to get are two of the chariots, the grinders still need to be designed completely. Sort of stuck on them a little.
And a Daemon Prince of failure. No longer used as all it ever seems to do is just die first turn.

I like the guys with the wires for legs, pretty cool. Also like the older KoS compared to the sort of goofy one we have now too.
Ratius wrote:Lol great stuff notu. What model ranges are they from? Skyshield is excellent.
Thanks.
KoS is from Wyrd's Malifaux with a bit of work done to it. One of the Daemonettes is a conversion on the Dark Elf Sorceress, while the other is Lilith's normal sculpt from Malifaux as well. They were to be heralds, but changed my mind about having heralds.
The other things that aren't GW are sculpted by me. The flamers (I call them Soulburners) are still in the prototyping stage more or less though, but I think I've got a set design now anyway. Figured paint them up and use them anyway.
Edit: By the way, your army is awesome Redbeard.
