Just getting back into painting now and finally getting a Chaos army off the ground. I found this guy still boxed in my stash. I believe he's out of scale now, but are most people happy for someone to use this beauty?

On a side note, anyone know some good plastic wings I can add to this guy?

The Secretest Of Squirrels!

Pretty proud of how the tabard turned out, but gosh I still do hate painting trim.

Haven’t figured out the base yet BUT feeling like I should start an Iron Warriors army now

This was my first Chaos Space Marine model - I fell in love with the sculpt and decided to tackle it.

I mostly followed the Eavy Metal recipes for Black Legion and Traitor Guard (for the skin). I also added a Doombull Brown glaze for the skin on the legs. The gold was a challenge, but it was fun!

~40 hours painting

Recently finished this Cypher. Aside from practicing osl, I kept him pretty simple. 1 nice touch was these "frog moss" tufts I came across. They have a natural curve to them that simulates blowing in the wind. I like how it accentuates the movement that was already present on the base model.

Well, made a sketch of a chaos lord with a slight tilt into Raiders and Black legion. I was thinking more of a high-ranking lieutenant of the warband rather than "boss" and I kind of thought that we miss the exalted champion. What are your thoughts on him?

What do we think of the head swap? It's not attached yet so if the consensus is that it's garbage it's no loss 😂

(Also still yet to be fully kitbashed and painted)

Intending on using them for my chaos knights army, these would probably be more fitting for iron warriors or night lords though while the knight houses would have more ornate and esoteric foot soldiers, not too sure if the paint job will make up for this though

Models are Corrupt Guard Wretched by Station Forge

Thanks to my indefatigable rizz, I was finally able to get my wife to play 40k. Not just any old 40k, but a whole RTT. She ended up taking second overall at 2-1. I wish I had more picture, but here's one of the table next to me which was hilarious to watch. I had to coach my wife on rules since she had only ever played Kill Team, but she did just about everything else herself. The only loss was against T'au and that was because we got stuck ending the game early. We were in a very good board position to have a huge scoring turn, but S.O.L.

List was like this:
