Dark Desires

Quite some time ago I assembled and painted several figures that I called Chaos Lords.  There was one for each of the Dark Gods (WH40K): Khorne, Nurgle, Tzeentch, and Malal.  I never got around to having one for Slaanesh...that is untill now.

I purchased this model on Etsy back in September of 2022.  It is a Tamareth figure from Archvillian Games.  It looked like so many of the images I've seen posted on the Internet of Slaanesh style heralds.  I have renamed it Syntryxa.  She's bad to the bone to say the least.

I kept to the purple, pink, and gold color scheme that is typical of Slaanesh models (see my Daemonettes and Fulgrim-Phoenician figures.)  Painting it was not too difficult.  Assembly was a different matter entirely.  Parts did not fit together properly (a common problem with many resin figures I have found).  I had to putty in some areas. The super glue would not bond the pieces together.  I had to do some trial and error to find a concoction that would work.  Despite the issues, I think the end product turned out well.

Stand back!  It's time for Syntryxa's debut!  Watch out for the blades!!!!!!!!!!

Strange Magic

I finally finished this Vulduk Chaos Lord of magic and mystery from Archvillain Games.  Vulduk serves the Chaos God Tzeentch.  

The base was easy - rocks and candles - no brainer on the paint scheme.  The body of the creature was easy too.  The wings...a whole different story. What colors to use, what wash, what highlight color???  It's done now and I think it looks great.  I didn't deviate too far from the general look in WH40K.  

Thanks for checking in.  I'm always humbled and thankful that you do.  I feel lucky here on St. Patrick's Day to be able to share the things I enjoy with all of you out there in the big old world.  Have a good one!

Chaos All Around

Chaos Undivided

Nearly a year ago I started out to build a Warhammer Chaos Army.  I've gathered a variety of Chaos figures over the years but felt I needed a full fledged force.  I purchased several boxes of Chaos figures and set off to work.  

I divided the Chaos Warriors into two sets of Knights.  One set serves Tzeentch and the other Slaanesh.  The set of Blood Reavers and Blood Warriors are dedicated to Khorne. Lastly a unit of Black Knights for Nurgle.  I added a set of Undead Cavalry from Fireforge Games to even out all the units into groups of eight.  Thirty two minions for the Lords of Chaos to order into battle.

I've attached several photos of the final product.  Take a gander and see what you think.  Until next time...

Nothing But Chaos

I have decided for my summer project to build a Warhammer Chaos Army.  It will be made up of four units; each unit committed to one of the four Chaos Gods.  For Nurgle, a unit of Hexwraith Cavalry.  A unit of  Blood Warriors and Reavers for Khorne.  I'm splitting a box of Chaos Warriors between Slaanesh and Tzeentch.  Each unit will have 8 figures that comprise it.  Totaling 32 figures in all, this will be a bit of a challenge.

As usual, pictures will follow when completed.  Wish me luck.

Riding High Again

I got a great deal on this D&D Skyjek Roc.  My original idea was to turn it into Tzeentch, a Chaos God from WH40K.  When I got it, I noticed that it had a saddle on its back.  I quickly came up with a Plan B.  I got out my old friendly neighborhood bitz box.  I found a body of a Nurgle Fell Beast Rider.  The head is from a HorrorClix figure.  The shield was from a dollar store bag of knights.

I cobbled a rider together out of the parts.  I gave it a paint job that I thought looked good.  With some Sculpey, I modified the saddle some.  When everything dried, I put it all together.  Check out the final product.
