The painting of the army was to be her responsibility except for a few centre piece models, which I agreed to paint for her.
Recently my daughter moved into a new place with enough space to hold her army, which she picked up the other week, I thought great a bit more space once my new room is finished, until she noticed I hadn't finished painting a few of the pieces for her.
Above is her heavily converted Defiler, this had two extra claw arms added, and multiple custom khorne icons added, then painted in the traditional red and brass colour scheme of the Worldeaters Legion.
Then I finished her dreadnought Kraal the soultaker, the background behind this is at the start of a battle his armour is a blank dark red, then as he claims souls for Khorne they appear as skull across his armour, which are claimed be minions at the end of a battle through dark rituals.
Last is the remaining piece to be finished Angron Demon Prince of the Worldeaters, the model originally started as a Bloodthirster body and the wings came from a Dark Elf Dragon, a lot more greenstuff needed yet but will end up like this at the end
That's all for this post so until next time have fun !
Cheers Dave
Wow! Those are amazing pieces and beautifully done. I bet she is thrilled to have them back in the army.
ReplyDeleteThank you Michael, I'm sure she'll be happy once I drop them down to her, then finish the last piece
DeleteGreat models and paint jobs, Dave. Although not a fan of Chaos forces I do like what you've dome with the spider-like mech in the first few photos.
ReplyDeleteThank you Bryan, yes chaos forces aren't everyone's taste, she felt a close combat monster would be fitting for a Worleaters force, which I have to agree
Deleteas always, nice work Dave. That mech is awesome
ReplyDeleteThank you Andy, The top claws were a pain to fit as the shoulders are designed for other weapons, but nothing superglue and greenstuff can't fix
DeleteBlood for the Blood God, I had both a defiler & that dreadnought Dave & to this day I think that's the best dreadnought GW ever made the close combat arm was was class, you've done a wonderful job with them, I look forward to seen Angron painted.
ReplyDeleteThank you Frank, must admit not a huge fan of the new Hellbrute, which replaced the dreadnought, but did like the Forgeworld chapter specific ones.have made some progress on Angron since the post so hopefully won't be too long until it's into paint. Skulls for the throne of Khorne
DeleteYep the FW ones where sweet Dave but I wasn't including FW dreads in my comment, would agree with you on the Hellbrute & looking forward to seen Angron in all of his glory :)
DeleteYes Frank Simon Egan did a fantastic job on the FW ones with the chassis Will Hayes built, and I want to see Angron finished too ! LOL
DeleteNice work on the warmachines of the blood god. Angron is coming along nicely.
ReplyDeleteThank you Simon, Angron has sat for far too long and have now found ways round the stumbling blocks I had
DeleteAll lovely, but Angron! O_o Fantastic stuff Dave! Can't wait to see the finished effort.
ReplyDeleteThank you Dai, he should be a beast when he's finished
