Greetings Terrans, quite a quick post today – just a few ‘Brimstone Horrors’ painted up quickly. They are the lowest ranked of the Tzeentch Daemon stable, and they will be loosely affiliated to my Tzeentch Warband. That said, I am not that excited about including Daemons in Warcry, so really this is just a case of getting these done to complete the Silver Tower set.

The first two pairs are from the Silver Tower set, while the last pair are duplicates from the Eyes of the Nine warband:

They were pretty undemanding to paint – just messing about with yellow, orange and red Contrast paints really! They aren’t anything amazing, but they will do. Here they are as a group, and with Scynir.

That’s all for this post – more Daemons of Tzeentch on the way!

Greetings Terrans, I hope this finds you well! It has been several weeks since my last post – RL is kicking my ass as usual – blah, blah, blah. Still, I’ve been chipping away on more Tzeentch mooks – five of the six Tzaangors from the Silver Tower set, and a sixth Tzaangor from the ‘Eyes of the Nine’ Underworld warband, (he’s the one with the whopping great chopper). But before I show them off, I just wanted to comment on the 9th year of Leadballoony – I cannot believe that it has been so long. My hobby focus has shifted around a lot since then – this blog actually started out as a record of my Praetorian Guard army for W40K (7th Edition!). Over the intervening years I have gotten into and then out of a few different games and genres, and shared my modeling & painting efforts along the way. I have also kept up with project logs, battle reports, and I’ve even had a wee dabble with creative writing. I’ve resisted ‘The ‘gram’, and have stayed true to the blogging thang. I have made a few good blogging-buddies along the way, and have found the vast majority of folks in this space to be decent people, (with just one notable exception, swiftly blocked).

Strangely, given all the twists and turns over the years, the blog holds true to its original purpose – a place for me to record my painting output & really just share the things that are getting my hobby juices flowing at any given time. These days, I’m still enjoying painting up modern GW plastic of a AoS/Chaotic nature, and I don’t see that changing any time soon, but there are soooo many projects I still want to get done… modern Warbands for Khorne & Slaanesh, modern undead, vamps & Kruelboyz, loads of lovely gangs and characters, a platoon of Vostroyan 1st Born, a platoon of Bob Olley sculpts, that 1st/2nd ed. Eldar army I always wanted but didn’t have the confidence to paint, Confrontation gangs… oh, and I’m liking the look of Cities of Sigmar as well… So many things! One thing for sure, I am going to be sticking to painting what I have rather than buying anything new – so far I have spent precisely zero pennies with GW this year, and I intend to keep being very selective in this regard, (though I did get gifted a lil’ ‘sumpthin’ for Father’s Day)

Anyway, I guess all of these projects mean that I’ll be keeping this wee spot of t’internet going for the foreseeable future. Thank you to everyone who swings by for a butcher’s, and thank you even more to those who comment, like, etc. It means a lot to me, and I hope you continue to get something out of stopping by.

Right, enough of all that, let’s get down to business. Tzaangors!! As with the Kairic Acolytes, I did some small conversions to de-duplicate where necessary:

.

They were fiddly buggers to paint if I’m being honest, but I’m really happy with the final result! The internet consensus is that these murderous chicken-goats are blue of hue, and hue am I to argue?! To be fair, this shade is a lovely colour to play with, and it really works nicely with the darker blue of the armour and the orange cloth. Here they are with the Scynir, the Warband leader:

Aaand that’s all for now folks! Next up will probably be some Tzeentchy Daemons :-)
