While I've been adrift in the sea of madness these have been appearing on my table so I thought id share the progress of my war-band so far. Introducing the newly formed cult of the exquisite corpse.
This mess is usually how I set about converting although in this case I wanted to build the models as whole models just from the bits in my stash.
Along with a plague marine champion and chosen. the back and uper torso of the plague marine will need to be green stuffed.
New phone means new camera much better results on the samsung s7.
I got base colours and washes on the plague marine. Think I might call him Kang
Here is a shot of the size deference.
I've also started work on several more cultists so I have enough to field them in our usual games. I wanted each one to feel very individual yet retaining an overall unity.
That brings us up to date with where I am on this project although I have been sidetracked by buying both overkill and knight renegade. There are not enough hours in the day to feed my addiction.
Unfortunately the hobby stuff had to be packed away for a short time but I'm itching to get paint on these bad boys its only a matter of time before the inspiration takes me.
Whoa.....looking good Rob. I'd like to see a photo of the Blight King Plague Marine next to a cultist for comparison. You need to be careful with him, once you start going down the 'True Scale' path, it can take all of your hobby time up ;-)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you've posted these up though, it will help me to focus more on my warband because at the moment HBS is in full flight. I'm flitting between Daemons, Renegade Knights, Slaangors, Noise Marines and a certain Chaos Spawn!
Glad to hear the fleshsmith has been busy. I will get a shot of them together and edit it in. Its not quite as extreme as true scale but certainly noticeable.
DeleteThe size difference looks great. My cultists are bigger than my Noise Marines!
DeleteGreat looking models Rob, regards Steve
DeleteThey look very fitting and individual for your chosen god Rob. That's how i think chaos marine armies should look no model identical. I hear you not enough hours in the day for our hobby that's why most of the time im up till all hours chipping away lol. Great work pal keep it up;-)
ReplyDeleteI tend to have intense periods of modelling and painting as sometimes the lot has to be put away then it seems like a big job to get started again
DeleteI hear you pal. I'm guilty for swoping between projects get board or run out of ideas or come up with new ideas for other projects. For example my slaanesh style scratch built bike unit as taken me best part of 2 years to finish. Just need to paint them now. I'll quote Gary the hobby butterfly as i type i can hear my obliteaters calling me or should i start my new project spawn unit.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, a perfect plaguemarine, I think even in terms of proportions. An addition which fully reflects the gifts of the Grandfather.Maybe even Tosis will have a similar treatment to demonstrate his new role and power?
ReplyDeleteAnyway all my compliments!
Tosis is the next build on my list. The gathering of parts has begun. Along with the begining of a sorcerer.

DeleteLooking good and very Nurgle like. Will we see them fighting the forces of the youngest god soon?
ReplyDeleteBoth Gary and I are still some way from compliteing our warband but soon hopefully.
