JamesP RT Khorne Army

Hello again!

I am returning to the OWAC after a year hiatus. I have taken part in 2 other OWAC (III & IV), each year painting half of my dream Empire army. It was quite an undertaking but so worth it and I’m happy to say they have seen a fair bit of table time. I am not happy to say that 2022 was a rough year with only a dozen or so minis painted. The OWAC is the best way I found to paint a force. What can I say? Without our benevolent overlord’s rants of “HAVE YOU SUBMITTED YOUR ENTRY YET?!” along with my fellow competitor’s encouragement and seeing all the progress of beautifully painted armies I just can’t get motivated.

I want to ease back into the challenge after my break, so I’m doing a small project that has taken me years to collect. I’ll be painting a Rogue Trader Khorne army. 


 

This force will consist of:

·        Month 1 – 8 tactical marines and 1 marine on jet bike (a cheeky 10 model minimum)

·        Month 2 - 8 tactical marines and 1 marine on jet bike (another cheeky 10 model minimum)

·        Month 3 - 8 devastator marines and 1 marine on jet bike (more cheekiness)

·        Month 4 – 5 marines on jet bike (will the cheekiness never end?)

·        Month 5 – A land Raider and a Predator (Lovingly restored to their former glory)

·        Month 6 – Command consisting of 1 terminator general, his lieutenant, a tech marine (who is currently navigating the warp i.e. The Royal Mail) and a dreadnought.

Points will be listed every month along with unit descriptions. I am doing the bare minimum for most months as I have to travel a few times in the beginning of the year. Hopefully this will not hinder my efforts.

For our master of ceremonies: The celebrant of the macabre, My personal Freddy Krueger who haunts my dreams not with fingers ending with blades but with tiny paint brushes for digits I humbly submit a Citadel Fiend Factory (FF58) Vampire to keep the FF1 Fiend company.


 

I look forward to watching the armies grow!

Good luck!!
