Knights of Malfeas WIP


Recommended Posts

I started working on this concept a while back, I knew I wanted a chaos force, but as my loyalists are all shiny black outlined in gold, what could I possibly do to top it for a CSM army?

The answer came during a game of chess, when I realized that the personal warband of a chaos lord might bear the emblem of his favorite regicide piece--in this case, the knight.

After playing around with colors (nods to the chaos marine painter) and poses for the minis, I decided to go for a no-nonsense professional look to my chaos army. No horns, very few trophies, just a very bitter and melancholy bunch of superhuman killing machines haunting the galaxy looking for a place to fit in.

C&C encouraged and welcome

This is Charosian, my Chaos Lord. Late in the game, he may double as Abbadon, hence his choice of weapons. He still needs his combi-plasma, and some touch-ups

My first Aspiring Champion (ever!). I think I'm actually satisfied with this model sans a few touch-ups, even though with the flash, you can see every flaw in the primer and every place I went back over a mistake. Ouch!

3 vehicle wip, the land raider doubles as a terminus ultra when the front HBs are replaced with the TLLC turret

As I said, C&C welcome

New stuff added now:

My sorcerer who needs quite a bit of cleaning up, but you can see where I'm going with the model:

Defiler in progress (I think regular defilers look goofy)

Yes, I am aware I have gigantic square hands

presenting a unified front:

I think a bit of a wash over the red parts and maybe another over the blue and then maybe just a little hightlighting on the black to give a little variation to the uniform black and bring the different colours together.

 

But thats just my opinion and what you have so far looks great. The knight freehand emblem is cool and your basic CSM is probably the best pic so far in my opinion. If all your basic troops have as much atmosphere in them as that one then this will be an awsome army arrayed on a battlefield
