Talon Darkshade Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 So I am finally breathing life into my Daemons army. My intent is to run a Tzeentch Themed army without being mono god list. I have always liked the Bird gods fluff "Change you can Believe in" but a mono list doesn't fit well to my play style of aggressive versatility. That being said here is the first of many painted pics to come. My Blue Blood-Crusher - The Lord of Change knows no bounds and enforices his will upon those outside his plane. http://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad47/Talon_Darkshade/Tides%20of%20Madness/IMG_0012.jpg Here we see the Honor Guard of the Smurfs meeting a crushing end. http://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad47/Talon_Darkshade/Tides%20of%20Madness/IMG_0011.jpg Change creeping down it's body http://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad47/Talon_Darkshade/Tides%20of%20Madness/IMG_0014.jpg The Crushers Blood Glaive http://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad47/Talon_Darkshade/Tides%20of%20Madness/IMG_0013.jpg Blood for the Blood Bird http://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad47/Talon_Darkshade/Tides%20of%20Madness/IMG_0015.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211645-the-tides-of-madness/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Darkshade Posted September 25, 2010 Author Share Posted September 25, 2010 Had a change of heart. Though I still love the fluff of the Great Changer I am leaning my painting style to a set color palette over set fluff. I have moved to a palette of Red, Black, and Dulled Gold. A set color palette will unite a multi god list better then set fluff Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211645-the-tides-of-madness/#findComment-2521016 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Darkshade Posted October 11, 2010 Author Share Posted October 11, 2010 Even more change to my Tzeentch army (it's ADD and it's themey too!) Still not satisfied with my crushers for my Tzeentch themed army I worked on the model some more and I think I am rather pleased with the results. ***Enter the Fatecrushers*** (yes I know the name is used for a Fateweaver crusher list but it just has such a nice ring for the unit) I took a note from our Chaos Space marine allies and did a blending of a khorne champ riding a juggernaught and gave it a Tzeentch feel. It still bears the Crusher body shaved off any obvious khorne markings, removed the bull head which was replaced with a giant eye of tzeentch. For the rider I wanted to visually carry over the 3+ armor save thier rule set gives them, so I mounted a thousand son marine on top. Now in an effort to make sure i still remained a "daemon" army and not some hybrid blend I didn't do just a regular rubric marine but instead did a possessed 1k son (seeing as thier own rule set marks them as daemonkin) on top. An to bear the apperance of a power weapon/hellblade I gave his arm the mutation that looks like an old powerfist with a blade cracking through giving the blade a turquiose coloring of power. Like I said all in all I am pleased with the model. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211645-the-tides-of-madness/#findComment-2533284 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Darkshade Posted October 12, 2010 Author Share Posted October 12, 2010 Bases aren't done cause I am trying to finalize my desicion on what resin bases I want for my Daemons army http://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad47/Talon_Darkshade/Tides%20of%20Madness/IMG_0025.jpg http://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad47/Talon_Darkshade/Tides%20of%20Madness/IMG_0023.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211645-the-tides-of-madness/#findComment-2534148 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debauchery101 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Love that crusher man, especially the eyeball. Are you going to make them all like that ? I'd love to see one with a warped raven head :-) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211645-the-tides-of-madness/#findComment-2534337 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Darkshade Posted October 12, 2010 Author Share Posted October 12, 2010 Yes I want a pack of 6, they all are going to bear the eye motif for a head (if it's not apparent i didn't make the eye it is part of the crusher model it's the joint where the bullhead is glued on) the riders will all be different as will the random mutations moving about the crushers body (aka tentacles and horns and what not). I also want to make a rider with a more stylized mount for a "pack leader" not sure how to tackle that one yet.

Talon Darkshade Posted October 28, 2010 Author Share Posted October 28, 2010 Some more additions to the Tides of Madness Host. Have to save I love playing them even more now that they are getting paint on them. Something to say about the blandness of just primered models. First up is Grenmaul'Groth a Demon Prince of the Thousand Sons Chapter http://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad47/Talon_Darkshade/Tides%20of%20Madness/IMG_0026.jpg And just to show DPs aren't without love. Here is Grenmaul Hugging a Gaurdsmen http://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad47/Talon_Darkshade/Tides%20of%20Madness/IMG_0028.jpg Next up the changeling. I removed his staff because the direction staffs little ribbonets was going was opposite the way the wind sweep his gathered robes at his feet. As soon as I can get one I plan on throwing a bolt pistol or las pistol in his hand which is still pinkish to show he is still transitioning from what he was pretending to be. http://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad47/Talon_Darkshade/Tides%20of%20Madness/IMG_0031.jpg An of course with a Changeling comes his retinue, the Court of Change (always liked the grumpy blue horrors more then the gitty pink horrors) http://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad47/Talon_Darkshade/Tides%20of%20Madness/IMG_0032.jpg A closer pic. All of my armies "Bolt" horrors will have the beak painted gold to set them out from the others. And I also wanted to show the color transition on the tendrils and tongue. A phasing of thier once pink horror state. http://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad47/Talon_Darkshade/Tides%20of%20Madness/IMG_0033.jpg With this I leave you with a thought as i head back to the table. "If change is inevitable why do anything but embrace it" All hail the Lord of Change Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211645-the-tides-of-madness/#findComment-2548003 Share on other sites More sharing options...
biadetic Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 If we embrace it it becomes boring. Revolt against it and you'll continue to be surprised! :) And I love the bloodcrusher idea man. Its awesome :woot: You should do one of a Bloodcrusher riding the marine! Hows that change for ya? :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211645-the-tides-of-madness/#findComment-2566010 Share on other sites More sharing options...
