Greetings Terrans, hope you’re all well! A bit of an unplanned revisit of my Tzeentch warband today, with some replacement count-as Harpies for the ones I drafted into my Slaanesh warband last week. Nothing too exciting on the modeling front – three Chaos Furies assembled per the instructions, and a fourth that was kit-bashed to avoid a duplicate, (the on the right combines the legs from 2 and the top from 3):

Nothing much to say about these really, other than painting bat-wings is a bloody pain in the arse. The blue and orange scheme was fun, and is specifically intended to fit with the rest of the warband – I think it works quite well, as this little selection demonstrates:

That’s all for now – I’m continuing to enjoy a break in my studies & am working through finishing up the last of the initial rolls for my Slaanesh warband, and should have more to share soon. I’ve also been kicking around some ideas for a small AdMech warband – nothing too specific yet, but some glimmers of inspiration are starting to flicker into life… more to follow!

Greetings Terrans! Well, last post I said I’d be away for a few weeks… that turned into 4 months, and a full break from the hobby during that time! It was a combination of work and study, so nothing dramatic or exciting, but unusually, it also included a rest from all the many fine blogs I follow and usually comment on… 4 months is a lot to catch up on, so I doubt I’ll be going back over everything and commenting extensively, but I’ll have a quick peek & carry on as normal from here on.

It’s not just the blogging that has suffered, coming back from such a long break has been a slow and painful process on the painting front as well… I swear my eyesight has gotten worse in the last 4 months! Still, I’ve managed to slap some paint around as best I could & I picked up where I left off by adding a couple more mooks to my Slaaneshi warband:

These guys were a simple kitbash from a couple of old Flagellants, with bits added to tie them in with the Unmade from my last post. Colour scheme was copied from the rest of the warband, so nothing unusual or exciting to report there.

–

These two complete the human contingent of the warband, but I also rolled 4 Harpies back when I generated this project. I had 4 Furies ready to paint, but I saw an opportunity to re-task the Harpies I originally did for my Tzeentch warband… honestly I never really felt happy with them in terms of how they were painted, or how they fit in with the rest of the Tzeenchian mob as it evolved over time… This is how they looked 2 years ago:

Hmmm…

I gave them a quick repaint & moved them over to Slaanesh, and I’m much happier with them now:

Much better.

Of course, I still need to replace them in the Tzeentch warband, and that will be the subject of my next post – and I promise it won’t take another 4 months!! :-)

Greetings Terrans, another bit of progress to report for my Slaaneshi warband – after a fair bit of cursing, I managed to get the rest of the Unmade completed. As with their leader, some of these are spindly, fiddly sods, with loads of scope for breakages! Here they are in pairs:

I am really glad to get these guys done and dusted – I really didn’t enjoy painting them very much at all to be honest, but they do look pretty cool as a group. Here they are with their Unmade boss:

And a final pic with the Warband Champ:

The Unmade definitely represent rougher & less polished side of Slaanesh compared to the Champ, but the colour scheme is tight enough that they still work as a cohesive group I think.

Anyhow, that’s all for now – I’ll be away from the hobby for a few weeks with various things, but there will be more additions to this warband in due course :-)
