Here is my Slaanesh Sorcerer Lord riding his Manticore. He is named Sowmir Throttle Grope, there is fluff for him in my Lustvipers Slaanesh blog, link below.

I tried to do something different with the Manticore. They are usually red which is fine but I wanted a more Slaaneshi look for mine. I used light green and painted a scale pattern onto it. I also painted on the scales on the underside of it's body. I gave it light grey fur to contrast with the green. The Sorcerer is painted with screamer pink on his armour. The cloak was painted with genestealer purple which I love and then highlighted up and shaded. I often convert models alot but I didn't do much with this one. I only replaced the Sorcerer's head with a Daemonette head which works well to show his alliegiance to Slaanesh. Any comments of questiosn are welcome. Hope you like.

Really impressive, I like your color scheme and the details on the wings

Huge fan of what you did here. i imagine not all will agree, but I like your color scheme as well. I've gotten some critiques for using that shade of green and purple myself, but I dig it. Nice conversion work on the sorcerer. Cheers.

aw hellz yes

Sowmir Throttle Grope - great name, great paintjob. I am impressed with the underside scale pattern

Wow, until reading the description i didn't realse the scales where painter, i thought they where part of the model.

Thanks everybody, I'm glad you like him.

Glad you like the green and purple. I personally love those two shades together.

Looks great. Some areas are a touch chalky, upon close inspection (might have tried to smooth out the drybrushing with a subtle glaze), but the general impression is overwhelmingly positive. I think the colors work just fine, as well (at least considering the subject - doubt I'd use them elsewhere, but it feels right, here).

When I heard the title, I assumed it was 40k, and the Slaanesh sorcerer was riding a missile on the Manticore. he worst part is that it made perfect sense (if ya know what I mean)

That is agood idea. Imperial Guard allies made up to look like Slaaneshi traitors for a Chaos Marine army.

There could be Slaaneshi worshippers, straddling the Manticore's missiles so they can go hurtling off in praise to the Lord of pleasure.

I like it.

Would've loved to see him ride an IG manticore

:O
WOW
No other words, just wow! That's a beautiful piece, well done

Really nice. The color coordination is perfect.
