Chaos!

Some odds and sods, first up, the baddies from Dark Vengeance

Image

Cultists, as with the whole lot currently the bases just painted black for neatness, not yet decided how to base them, thinking and ash waste grey texture.

Image

Few more cultists, went with a red/purple scheme as I like red and it fits with the marines who we will come to shortly, the purple also fits in with the daemons who we will see later, plus I like purple and haven't really used it on anything as yet.

Pretty generic rent a mob really, base colours, sepia wash then a bit of a highlight and done.

Image

Chosen of Chaos, the bling the army is going for starts to become obvious, red/gold and white as a scheme here. The red being Tamiya clear red over the airbrushed gold, seems to work ok in small areas applied by brush

Image

As as yet unnamed chaos lord, more bling, and showing the green I'm using for plasma with these guys, leaving skulls that are part of the armour in gold to look like they are actually part of it and not just a random skull thats got stuck.

Image

character model, intending to use this dude as a Dark Apostle, again nice and glossy, shows the metallic red to nice effect.

Image

Briefly away from Dark Vengeance to show the first chaos space marine unit, 13 of them, loaded for close up work, the slightly more simple armour shows the red (three layers of it!) nicely and also the model air gold, applied over a mix of gold and burnt umber brown, highlighted with a bit of aluminium added to the mix.

Image

We don't do walking, the red shows off its glossy nature here, also brushed on, which on reflection was a mistake and future vehicles will be painted in sections before assembly is completed to allow the red to go on via the airbrush.

Image

Back with Dark Vengeance for the hell brute model, combination of the armour colours and a rich purple, made via the hexes purple cut with white, highlighted with more white added then a final white dry brush then the VMC violet ink over the lot at a glaze. Again shows the glossy effect of the red nicely.

Image

Chaos spawn, utterly nuts model but great fun to make, first of two, totally the purple with the eyes in black, very simple but it works.

Not a bad start really, pretty simple to paint.

Obviously unfinished, they need a gloss varnish to allow a dark brown oil wash then something to kill the shine, plus a bit of dusty weathering on the legs. Not planning any markings though.

The red on gold looks great.

Cultist are fantastic modles and can be blood pact, useful force for kill team and any post Apoc game.

Few more updates.

Image

Second spawn, also the first one based reasonably completely, also added a further highlight on the tips of the claws and some of the upper surfaces.

Image

Daemon Prince, had some fun painting this one, base is very much in progress, may do a further highlight on the wings.

Image

Possessed, bases are still wet here, this is one of the GW texture paints which are 'so so' but easier than painting sand.

Image

Raptors, again nice models, bit like flying chosen in terms of details, bases have a fair bit more work to do.

All good fun, technically game legal now though unlikely to be very effective until a few more bits are added.

Cheers, bit basic, not raising any bars, but hopefully not lowering them,aiming for 'usable' but easy to go back later and tinker.

Fun models actually, even if the red is a pin on larger areas, have a Land Raider in progress, built ages ago so too fussy to mask and airbrush.. the red needs four coats...

Well it looks effective anyway

The red is great for a 30 or 40K look

Indeed, assuming more than looking occurs, or more than using the current horde of 40k figures to play it occurs...

This is team Janco, we'll be lucky to get to the point of an empty base with writing on it
