I just made my own Jabberslythe to be honest. Still not finished yet, but he looks cool and suitably weird.

Oh, looking forward to see in that.

@Discoking, awesome bats! Looking at them I can just hear a gothic version of flthe flight of the valkyries music playing.

More for Chaos. Did some Dragon Ogors:



And finally finished the Varanguard:

Nice Varanguard, theyd be a frontrunner for my favourite AoS models to this point.
Curious though, how big are the models in relation to say a chaos knight?

were gonna need a bigger boat....
sorry, don't know why that popped in my head

love those dragon ogres Matt.
oddly enough I think that these are the first that I've actually ever see that weren't on a GW website... 8^O

This is accurate, but doesn't not really get the models across.

I had a bunch of Skellies on the painting table while doing the Varanguard, and they look very, very vulnerable compared to the Chaos guys. You can see the Varanguard ploughing into a unit of infantry and thinking the little guys would not stand a chance.

Once the Skellies are finished, I'll take a photo illustrating this.

Basically, the Varanguard are much bigger than they might appear!

These pictures don't show their width and with that some of the model's impression is lost. I agree that the would look a lot bigger from a different angle.

Almost done with starter set, will post pics.

So for my cavalry I always liked the idea of a rag tag group of guys fighting together. So searching the archives of history I am going with some of the greatest baddasses that have ever lived.

Did a wee bit on my Lord-Celestant and Lord-Relictor this weekend, namely the Dracoth mount (face and horns/spikes) on the former and the Reliquary (candles and haft) on the latter.

Finally got the whole gang together today.

Screwy attachments tonight.

Awesome!

Man these look so much better than the actual models. Amazing work. How close are your undead to completion now?

Okay, I think I have finally reached the point where I am going to stop doing Dreadhold sections!

Honestly, you've reached the point where GW should already include you (in some form) in the setting

Matt, your patience must be impeccable to do that. Wow.

@Bottle: thanks and here is a shot of where I'm at.



Still 2 units of Bloodknights to paint(1 a repaint,see below) and a Covern Throne.




@Matt: Impressive.Most Impressive

Minor progress. But little bits of painting here and there this week is getting closer to the basecoats on the Fimir. Aim is have much more progress to show next update.

@Shane TB Very nice

Starting a new project in the next few weeks.

I have pre-ordered one of everything from the new orruk release, so that needs doing, then I will be rebasing my entire 8th ed orc and goblin army, including stripping and re-painting of some of my earlier models!

We are just about to start the Balance of Power book, which means I will be needing undead guys for Neferata...



As it turns out, the last skeleton I did here was the 999th model I have painted for Age of Sigmar since it was released.



Perhaps I should be doing something special for model number 1,000...

Maw Krusha for #1000!

seconded... cmon Matt!

let me just add... so much good stuff here.
those fyreslayers and undead ... sweet.
I love the theme disco, they look great.

Disco, that is a gorgeous warband. I think the Orruks have been big sellers. I've got a few Brutes coming to go along with the Ogors I started. Just finishing up my last Plague Drones to put my Nurgle/Pestilens army to bed for now.

Disco, forgot to comment how incredible the blood knights look! Can we have some close ups?

Matt, the skeleton hordes look amazing! Man I need to paint up some more.

Thanks for the comments all

Bottle: thanks a lot but that's what they look like now and it's a crappy paint job by my new standards so they are getting redone even tho I really like the paint scheme.

@Matt: amazing stuff dude and the purple is proper striking,looks ace
