I picked up a couple of cheap Deimos Rhino's off ebay a while back as I want to use the heresy era vehicles for my EC as it seems more appropriate:
Im toying with adding the Christmas battleforce to my collection as ive not got Fulgrim and could still add a 3rd Noise Marine squad but im not convinced at the moment.
Second Wardog finished and with that the army is done... for now!
Im tempted with the Christmas box to add Fulgrim, six more Flawless Blades and the last unit of Noise Marines.
Time for some heavier support for my EC and since i have never owned a knight or Armiger etc i figured i would pick up a couple of these for a go... and finding some unbuilt ones going cheap on ebay helped haha:
I'm starting on the other one tomorrow, and i think i will reverse the armour plates scheme to make them stand out from each other.
A second Daemon Prince for my Flawless Host:
I decided to use Sigvald this time as a Prince on foot and he fits right in... Just a pair of War Dogs to go and they should be arriving in a couple of days!
Had a really good day for painting yesterday and got my second unit of Noise Marines painted up:
That takes me to 1500 fully painted, I've ordered a Sigvald model to use as a Daemon Prince on foot and for the remaining points I'm probably going to add a pair of War Dogs as they are the cheapest way i can find to bring my army to 2000pts.
Back on the brushes after a week or so off, work and a trip away defeated painting haha! First of my Noise Marine Squads today:
On to the other squad later today!
Another squad completed for my Flawless Host with these Flawless Blades:
They don't get much love from the player base but in the precisely one game I've played they performed admirably hehe, killing many marines and a Lieutenant!
To round out my current collection to 1500pts i decided the quickest and cheapest way was a Daemon Prince... this one cheap from evil bay at around £30 for a 200+ point model was a great return haha:
I went with Syll'eske from the AoS range and a quick trim down of the Daemonette feet on the back bling and it was ready to go!
Trying to get the computer away from the kiddos during the holiday is proper hard haha! Finally get to post this pic from Saturday:
Still think the whip is silly but the rest of the model is superb! His bodyguard of Flawless Blades have arrived but its some Noise Marines first up.
The biggest squad in the army, a unit of ten Infractors:
The close combat version of the basic marine squad, these will be led into battle by the Lord Exultant I painted earlier!
Next up for the project is my Lord Exultant:
I decided against the cloak so needed a different right shoulder pad and had to modify the loincloth a bit. Back to the units again before tackling Lucius!
My second unit of Tormentors are done for now:
The shelf above the paint station is starting to look pretty cool now with a plethora of Chaos marines on the go!
Another week to get a model done... gonna be Xmas at this rate!
Quite a cool model to paint to be fair, and there are some variant parts so I can get a second one and it can look reasonably different.
First squad of Tormentors now done... have sat half painted all week!
I enjoyed painting these and am really happy how they turned out. I picked up a Lord Kakophanist today at the local GW so now have a full 1000pts of toys to paint up.
The other model i picked up before the Champions of Slaanesh box was a Chaos Sorcerer to try out a scheme idea with but never got round to it until today haha:
I didn't bother converting him or giving him a new head as ill only be fielding one of these at most in a list.
I picked up the Champions of Slaanesh box on release in March but I've not had a chance to start on it due to other projects in the queue! I also picked up a Sorcerer and a Terminator squad from one of the 40k magazines haha, and that all gives me about 1000pts to get cracking with.
I decided to start on the Terminators and test out the Flawless Host scheme on them:
