Your models look great so far.

Thanks warboss! i'm hoping to bring them to life during the rest of the painting phase. I'm going to be spending the day consulting my legion art book and considering what iconography i wish to add.

Looking very nice indeed.

Ok gents, final update for a few days as i've got some building yet to do. May i present the first teaser infantry. I have rebased Narik, started work on my tyrant terminators and done my tactical sgt (to the most part)





I've got some touching up to do on them before i am happy to say 'finished' but i think i've cracked the scheme for the infantry.

thoughts?

-skrall

Wonderful stuff. I like the tanks a lot!

the stock piling of chaos marine stuff has begun...



-skrall

I started Pollux a little way back but i've finally finished him;







on the whole i'm pretty happy with him.

-Skrall

He looks really nice for Imperial scum

@Giraffex; Thanks man, I'm still pretty happy with how he's turned out.


It's been years and years since i've fielded an actual chaos marine army. The codex is poor, the current lore is uninspiring and there's little fun to be had unless you spam the same cookie cutter chaos/daemons list. That however changed when i got my hands on Imperial armour 5 and 13. I've since had a few dark plans and my Iron Warriors, unseen using a chaos codex since the death of 3.5 are back.

Firstly, let me introduce you to Skane, High Warlock of the Casternals. He's also brought some friends....






Some Oblits (oh i had fun with these, I'd forgotten why every iron warrior wanted them regardless of how good the rules are)




And what's life without a pie plate?




-Skrall

Looking good! nice DV conversion and while I was never impressed by the models for oblits you have painted them nicely. and EVERYONE loves a pie plate!

Thanks man. I like the oblits myself, but then i've been a fan of them since 3.5 when they featured in the god codex.

Time for a new conversion. This one is actually going to take a little bit of time to complete because it's quite a complex. I have a rather fancy plan for him but it's going to take some work.

So here's the bare bones for my new Iron Warrior Sorcerer.



I hope to update with some work soon.

Are those just the regular shoulderpads? They look huge!

They are the ones supplied with the original model, but between the angle and the head size they do some off a little large.

Now, new bases i've been working on.

The theme? The genocide on Olympia. The lore describes a word reduced to death, where bodies burned in the streets and all was ash. I think these bases go some of the way to convey that without being over the top.




What do we think?

-skrall

Looking good for the Olympia destruction there. I assume there will be a sort of grey ashen themed paint scheme for them too though?

I'm back!

This time i'm building a small elite force of iron warriors, starting with my count-as golg praetor;







I've also got perturabo on the paint desk, so that's going to be finally a thing.

Looking very nice indeed skrall, lovely weathering.
