So, now i am having some decision problems.

I am going to soon (hopefully) get 60 WW1 germans from Wargames atlantic.

As above, i am planning the next project.
On one hand i really like the new CSM and experience would be dictating that with the next step in getting my painting game up would serve me well.

However, i also want another type of army, i did toy around with GSC as cultists (some good fits, ) and with the removal off R&H as an actual faction it would be the closest to adapt and count as. Bonus points for getting 60 neophytes with stahlhelm on the cheap , when they then arrive.

HOWEVER, the painting scheme is non negotiable, as in i will attempt my hand at white + brass + purple. (and of course Chaos symbols instead of GSC... )
Further , it allows me to tie in daemon units, considering i'd make a summoner cults i could use the Skulltaker as an "abominant".
Bloodletters as hybrids?.
Neophytes i 'd use the germans, the assasins i can build out of the other models i get, certainly getting some bikers.

So as you can see, the last bits get going, blackphase once again, and allready working on the Plasma for the count as Forgefiend with ectoplasma.

Also, the stuff i ordered is allready sent, hopefully it doesn't drown in the snow, then i guess will jump into the GSC conversion project.

Well radiation is done, next is copper mixing, some more details and then Paint some nice words AND then finally, washing.

Those are some great looking chaos armigers, I might have to steal that idea! Those maulerfiend heads go perfectly with those bodies.

by all means, you get also nice weapons AND a imo better looking Mauler / forge fiend stand in.

Nothing against the dino bot , but i prefer them bypedal

Great use of the fiend parts, I think GW should make the chaos knights look more like this. Are the hoods of the chaos troops going to be yellow?

I wanted to give them Danger strypes ala IW. focus on wanted

Ahh well, i will still try to achieve that but ...if need be, yes they will remain yellow.

As for the chaos knights, i do think it's mostly the amirigers and other non Chaos knight bits that suffer from this since they are in essence just knights with spikes beyond the few specific chaos options.

I allways wanted a plasma fiend, not because they are good, but because having what is in essence a 3 headed hydra spitting plasma at your enemies is an interseting concept.

Things to do on him: Words and runes?

Also, soon, Not online will start painting white, and purple, soon. ...



I got some rudimentary plans, but first i finish the last batch for Phyraxes warband and the 31.st.

I nearly got rid of my pile of shame , nearly

Oh man, that is an exciting pile of bits! Lots to look forward to.

Mr Pinchy turned out great too - nice green glow effect!

Ha, yes, the yellow asbestos hoods for chosen does indeed look nice aswell... however, yellow = layers... good yellow = many many layers...





Well, the first batch.

the other one needs a bit more touching up. One should not be breaking ice and then afterwards painting
