"Death from above !!!!" Slaaneshchild's flying month 3 : rank and file

Soooo

New month. New unit. New models. 

I was keeping secretly this amazing box from Ral Partha, "the Draconians". It is an old treasure I have seen in my childhood many times, and I never succeed to get it.

Fortunately, I put my hairy hands on a box in a second hand store at a fair price (35€), I was going to achieve a goal I had since my childhood, how fantastic !

I wanted to do something new, with different colours. I am tired of painting everything in pink :) So I imagined them as kin of a Red Drake.

In game, I will play them as furies. I might create my own rules, to make a regiment of renom, I will see.

Here they come, the Astharogh's offsrping : 

I finished them early, so I decided to paint another regiment. I worked on my ungors/lesser beastmen/chaos thugs. Those miniatures are from Metal. Magic's range. 

I was truly and pleasantly surprised by the quality of these figurines. The sculpting is fine—not too detailed, yet full of creativity—and very realistic. I had so much fun painting them. I hope you will enjoy them too !! 

Beware the chaos leprechaun !!! 

And of course, I want to share you the music that has been with me all month long, and that inspired me so much, the infamous and almighty French Black Metal band, Blessed in Sin ! "Par le sang du Christ"

Look at this album cover, isn't it all about Slaanesh beastmen and minotaurs ??? 

So this month I painted :

10 furies ........................ .............................................................................. 150 pts

24 ungors/chaos thugs with shields and full command ............................... 156 pts

Total : 306 pts !! 

Next month, furies again and beastmen !!! 

Cheers guys !! 

Pink dresses, zebra fur, crab like claws and mutilations: Slaaneshchild's January post - Rank and File (I) 511 pts

Cultists. I've always loved chaos cultists. To me they are "the great forgotten" from Warhammer. I don't like barbarians, especially for Slaanesh, but I love cultists. So I will play cultists as maraudeurs. 

I tried to paint some miniatures... To be 100% honest, it has been a pain in the ass. January is a very strange month. Everything is moving fast but I was like "nooooo I don't want to move, let me sleep again".

I started with what would be the most boring to me, foot infantry. Cultists. I will play them as marauders with 2 hand weapons.

The command group is from Heresy Miniatures. Most of the other cultists are conversion of my own based on old Dark Eldars Homonculi. Those miniatures are very ugly but I like their "Hellraiser style", and they are all in metal, which means a lot to me.  There are also some old GW cultists from W40K that I converted to WHFB in the name of the Dark Prince !

The "leader" with the long spear is an actual model from Shadespire (unfortunately in plastic), the big guy and the lady on the left of the picture are from Stephane Simon, an independant miniatures designer that I love.

I also found the time to work on my centaurs...

Once again, I've never liked the concept of "chaos marauders" and how they where introduced from 4th ed to 5thed. But tacticly speaking, they are quite interesting so I decided to build a unit of mounted marauders with chaos centaurs miniatures.

I wanted some diversity, the concept of chaos centaurs in itself is quite funny : angry creatures too ungainly to do something with their hands except destruction. As Slaaneshi Chaos Centaurs, I can imagine them very frustrated :D 

And of course, there is a zebra one ;)

So here they are ! The 6 riders of frustration ! Behold !

Next month, I think I will paint my daemonettes and their master, a Daemon Prince of Slaanesh !

Before that, enjoy the ride and destroy everything for the Dark Prince !
