Blood Crushers & Skull Taker

Recommended Posts

As the title says, I’m working on getting my Daemon army finished. I’ve got models assembled, based and primed to complete the 1,850 list and next I need to move on to the 2,500 pt. But in the mean time I’m going to finish painting the units for my smaller lists before moving on.

Here’s a shot from when I first started to get the pieces together:

And here’s what the squad looks like assembled:

Now it’s come time (and a long time coming) to get them painted. So here’s the first one, just starting to come along.

I’ll post more detailed write-ups in my blog (link in sig) but I’d also like to share here and get some feedback from the PC&A community as I finish up all five models.

For reference, here’s a shot of some Bloodletters in the same army:

C&C always welcome. -OMG

what are you planning to have in this army?

It’s mostly Pleasure & Pain based (unfluffy mix of Slaanesh & Khorne) but looks like I’ll be throwing in some Tzeentch units in there as well.

 

The 1,750 list & some other models can be found here: A Daemon army in 66+ some odd days.

 

Is that Skulltaker standing on the base holding the juggernaut (spelling?) back?

That’s the idea. I could have really bent up a model to try to make it mounted but the pose of Bal’akor (sp?) worked well with the standing & holding back scene.

 

Here’s a better shot of him minus the cape:

Thanks for the comments. -OMG

I did my best to come up with, "Khorne Red." Maybe it's the lighting or maybe I do need to darken it up a bit.

 

See if you still feel the same way after making a little more progress:

Thanks for the comments. -OMG

The Dark Side has ALWAYS looked this good. Your pathetic loyalist eyes have just been blinkered by your closemindedness until now :P

 

On-topic: Love the look of the Jugger. I really like the brighter red on deamons. It just seems to fit better with creatures made of pure energy.

Quick update.

 

At least I’ve got the 1st Blood Crusher painted up:

Won’t take long to paint the rider so I should have this model done in a short time. Now that I have a set pattern to follow the other 4 shouldn’t take as long. That’s what I keep telling myself anyway.

 

Cheers, -OMG

Too right. I won't say much here as I answered in the other thread, other than to say, looking good. :P

I don't think my PC has been properly warded, however as your thread keeps nuking my connections!!

:rolleyes: They’re only links to Photobucket but you never know with the content being what it is. I still think my Death Guard army gave me a head cold on more than one occasion. So you never know. ;)

 

Thanks for the comments all. I’m really going to have this guy finished over the weekend and then start on the next one.

 

I still haven’t decided on Skull Taker’s jugger. I might make that one all copper/brass metallic. Not sure yet.

 

More soon. -OMG

Here are some shots of the finished crusher.

There are a few more in my gallery (link in signature).

 

I really should move on and paint up the rest of the squad but my interests may be pulled elsewhere. May just have to abandon this thread and start another one when the time come.

 

Who knows. More to come of something or other.

 

Cheers, -OMG

have you done a tutorial on how you painted your bloodletters? I especially love their swords!

I may have enough WIP pics to show a bloodletter beginning to end. If you would really like a tutorial w/examples I suppose one of the next Blood Crushers would serve as well.

Do note that the runes on the sword are custom decals. In fact, here's the source images used to make them:

So I'm more than happy to write something up if you're still interested.

Thanks again for all the comments. -OMG
