Hi Folks, After painting most of what I though I could in the Imperium forum, I added 2 almost "last minute" vows in the Xeno Forum: - 5 Incubis and their objective marker - for 5 or maybe 6 pts - the Yncarne No surprise, these are a way to increase my Asuryanis though Ynnari faction play. See previous entry and probably some future ones too. In both cases I aligned my scheme on the ones promoted on GW boxes. I am chronically lacking of creativity (this is proved) but I also wanted to limit the decision making process (I can proscratinate a lot). I managed to fulfill both entries in 1 week, and being a copycat while using narrow colour pallets helped a lot. Let see the suspects. Incubis have been largely inspired from the claimed "Ynnari scheme" that can be found on the back of the box and on the GW websites. The armour is made of Incubi darkness, washed with 1:5 black in water. The rest is annecdotical: metal (clear) for blades qnd cuting stuff, red ribbons and white pads. I tried the Vallejo 70.951 as white on Corax white and the contrast is a little bit violent. It might require a future downdown. The Yncarne is as straight forward as can be. red character and frosthearth energy cloud. Everything in COntrast. first time for me the base coat is 100% Contrast on a model. Them subtility is added through washes and dry bruches. I had quite a lot of issues with the final assembly and I have not been able to position properly yhr character on the swirl. I identified 2 delictive points: 1. the base of the swirl is set with a small mispositioning on the scenic base 2. for some reason the bottom of the hair of the Yncarne and the top of the hair on the swirl, where you make the connection, are a little bit deformed. you cannot match all the details and grooves, as if the bottom part was a little bit larger than it should be. There is a small additional angle too. Resulting that the Yncarne is not that centered and looks like it tries to slide ahead. It gives a puzzling idea of forward movement, like trying a hoover jet for first time... But I am any way OK with the result: an ambitious model and probably the most complicated to assemble so far. Here are some close up of the base and epic hero: CTA2024 is now over for me. I ended 24h before deadline, so, I am happy that all my items and vows are complete. See you soon,

These models count as Tortured Warriors with venom swords in my Grimdark death cult army. In 40k lore this is part of an Ynnari army with an emphasis on pirates and banshees. It has a craft world, a wych cult, and a few kabalite bands joining in for kicks. There's some details to paint in the torture racks, but that will not prevent me from calling these tabletop-ready. Colors used: Vallejo dark turquoise ink gw carrosburg crimson turbo dork shifting sands gw auric gold Vallejo gloomy violet gw gulliman flesh Thanks for looking.
