Now that’s batch painting! Are you doing the whole army as one big batch or just some of the early stages?

My dude, you are absolutely killing this project. It makes me happy from the inside out. I can't believe I haven't seen this concept explored before - it makes so much sense!

Chimera turret is a super sweet piece of work. Beardy McBeardface (is it a chainmail 'veil'?) has a sweet hat. Colours coming together now as well.

Keep it up mane, this is gonna be a brilliant army.

Found my motivation again

Seems like i dropped it somewhere




Well, Meinel is finished, beyond a snow basing, anyone a good recope for a snowbasing?


Khorneberants got recess shading done, i am quite happy with that, but the highlightiing on the white needs to hapen.





Next squad highlighting done and some metal, missing some red

Also finally decided on the mask , it will be the highlighted white and i probably the glowy green for the lenses



also some more on the strap.

Busy, busy busy in here! Impressed you manage to keep tabs on all the painting projects!

I dig the hotshot mate, haven't seen a converted one before but it looks like it packs a punch.

Here's to hoping with the new Be'lakor drop we get an easy way to run daemons and mortals together in 9th!

Thanks mate.
He is kind of a prototype.
I have found some old way smaller cables, which will make this even look better, and unlike with a GW miniature i didn't just waste 3CHF / model because i was unhappy.

Albeit my toying around with cables has brought to attention that i have a bit of a low ammount of bits i'd need for powersources.
But i think i found a way to bypass that aswell

A full IA13 Renegades grenadier squad, including 2 Hotshot volley guns, and 2 plasma guns.

I used the gasmask canisters for the Hotshot lasguns, will need some more cleaning up and chaosification but after that and the cabling is done i think i have a fully functional squad more to paint in my old schme

Cabling may be a pain but I think it’s going to pay off big time. Your army is really one of a kind with all your conversions.

did some fixing, and yeah it is. It's also doubly usefull since i didn't want carapace vets.
Also it's a great cost saving meassure, i mean, have you seen what GW demands for 5 scions over here? It's positively nuts, nevermind that these fit the esthetique of my army far more.

Also, chaos special weapons bits kitbashing activated: Another 2 melta grenadiers for the next squad.
Also i have run out of lasguns... somehow... to modify, which means that i will probably get another squad of cadians.






They will need some more chaosifying and some of the hands need some grenstuff as need the arms at some joints, but overall i am quite happy for my Future back to 5-6th edition grens.

As a matter of fact. it's for some of the core point of the hobby. Sadly GW doesn't think that way anymore... and rarely shows off conversions nowadays.

KernelTerror wrote:Niiice, I never doubted it, but these helmets really work for evil chaos army men !


I'd have gone with the swiss m18 helmet if i'd had a plastic one that would've fit since it's more in line with the aggressive look being made like a medieval Sturmhaube specifically. but try find one
Hence why the german m16 /18 helmets will need to serve and they do it well. As did the kit in general.

For a decade we languished, now it's our time !



Someone pointed me to Warhammer armies project. And me, remembering that i wanted at some point to get into WHFB and therefore owning technically a army , somewhere, dug this out:

Summary:
1 x 24 Chaos warriors
1 x 11 Chaos warriors
1 x 20 Marauders with shields
1 x 15 Marauders with flails
1 x 10 Marauder horsement with spear and shield
1 x 5 Chaos knights

1 x sorcerer
1 x exalted champion.

First damage assessment, being 10 years in an open box means dust... and also a far less experienced Not Online!!!


here i seem to have worked well, bit of cleaning up to do



Well , i only seem to rock half an exalted champion... Whelp.
Also one can appreciated how far my painting skills have come, from attrocious harrassement of eyes too, well , semi competent and field able




Both marauder units look decently workable..


This knight lost his shield, that one lost half the standart and there a musician attempts to ride solo i guess.

Wellp... According to 9th age the only thing i'd need for this army to go to 2000pts more or less is a chaos lord

Internally i am debating if i should do Chaos warriors, would need a box of varanguard thou to get my hands on a lord and some more bits and bobs to fill out my poor exalted champion again.

Alternatively i'd have gone with soulblight on square bases, i really like the new skeletons and the new wight king especially.

Another alternative i started to consider was going with Pike & Schotte English civil war and landsknechts kits to build either an estalian force or an empire force, since warlord games pike and Schotte range fits well with especially the older states troops.

Another consideration was Goblins, indeed i kinda fell in love with some of the mantic ones, the normal ones that is.....

Well, i started on the army... Still need some bits for the half exalted champion but ehh..




Started out with the banners

Also, test mini, faded red laque ontop of metal, probably light grey mantle and more brass.
Also brownish washed out boots and probably light blue runes if i can bother myself.

Well not finished indeed.
For one yes a dark wash will be over the armor and metal, for two will attempt to make the fur darkbrown and the mandle with a light brown with agrax.
Also, some runes in light blue will cover some armor plates.
