kojo Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Hi everybody! I've been following the B&C forum for couple of years now but this is my first topic here. I would like to show off my upcoming CSM army with Slaanesh Space Lizards theme. Here is the logo for the army: http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd232/koksu_k/Space%20Lizards/Logo.jpg I'm about to convert and paint something like 4000 points of these guys. Lots to do but I've already done a small part of the army. I think I should start the topic with one of the HQ choices so here is my vision of Lucius the Eternal: http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd232/koksu_k/Space%20Lizards/Lucius.jpg I think he's too glossy tho. Guess I need to use some matt varnish too. I'll try to put some other guys tomorrow for you to see. I just need to take better photos of them first. Hope you like my Lucius!

kojo Posted February 12, 2011 Author Share Posted February 12, 2011 Hey, and thanks for the comments! While waiting Juarez's non-Chaos Hippos here are some more Chaos Lizards ;). So, here is one of the Noise Marines with Sonic Blaster: http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd232/koksu_k/Space%20Lizards/SonicBlaster-1.jpg And here is my Dreadnought #1: http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd232/koksu_k/Space%20Lizards/Dreadnought1.jpg More heretic scum to come, stay tuned!

Brother Lavis Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Awesome, i don't think I've seen anyone do this before. Looks really good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr tough guy Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I think they look very 80's, maybe it's the bright neon colours, maybe it's because Noise marine kinda reminds me of a character from an old 80's kids TV show, Photon warriors. Whatever it is, I like it, keep it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellios Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Got to be honest with you kojo... I think these models look really bad... but in a good way :D The bright pink and green combined would be a dangerous call for most things but I think you've pulled off a look where it is really snazzy :wallbash: and I totally agree with Mr.Tough Guy that the do remind me of old cartoons.

kojo Posted February 13, 2011 Author Share Posted February 13, 2011 I'm glad that they look bad, BUT in a good way :P I also like that they remind of the golden 80's cartoons! I don't take my army too seriously. Here is my first Obliterator squad: http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd232/koksu_k/Space%20Lizards/Obliterators.jpg I guess I should convert another squad, because they where fun to make and also very versatile in the battlefield!

Zynk Kaladin Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Does Slaanesh have a thing for lizards? I'd really like to hear the fluff behind this ;) Bright pink and bright green really compliment each other. Although you're going for a lizard theme, might I suggest a turtle tank?

Solid Zaku Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 The Emperor's Lizards, a debased cult of Astartes devoted to the Dark Gods, keep their leadership as devoted to the four great powers as possible. Four fell Champions command the will of the Emperor's Lizards, though unsubstantiated rumors speak of a leader above them all that commands them from the depths of their corrupted Battle Barge. So it was that the scions of the Dark Gods: Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, and Raphael, former sons of the angel Sanguinius, began their rampage of death and mutation across the Imperium...

kojo Posted February 14, 2011 Author Share Posted February 14, 2011 LOL, I haven't read that much of Chaos literature, so the fluff is in your hands! I guess I should have made a TMNT based army :cuss Well anyway, no Slaanesh army without couple of flying Daemon Princes: http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd232/koksu_k/Space%20Lizards/DaemonPrinces.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forgefather Vulkan Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Sons of Sanguinius never turn heretic! Never! Never! XD (Says the BA player) I must say these are the craziest things I've ever seen, thought they're rather fantastic. Especially the flying guys, they just look like they're cruising along, love it :) Forgefather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor Kravin Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I nearly laughed out loud at the suggestion that the finish might be too glossy. I think that the incredibly garish colours might be the issue there! From a personal taste point of view I think that they look absolutely hideous and not in a good chaotic kind of way. From a technical point of view I have to say I'm impressed that you actually managed to achieve such garishly vibrant colours. Finally, that picture of rocket pack slann is beyond words. I'm filled with an urge to email the link to that pic to every gamer I know (in a good way)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newtype Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Do they glow under black light? :tu: Those are the most inspired, trippin, space lizards out there! Get out the black velvet posters and put on the Greatful Dead and Procol Harum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kojo Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 Thanks for your comments! I know they are not very traditional looking chaos troops but I hope I get my opponents confused when playing against them <_< Unfortunatly they don't glow in the dark.... or do they? Haven't tried yet :woot: Well, I'll soon try to put some kind of a family potret out there, but untill that I need to finnish couple of more figures. Here is two of my Terminators with pair of lightning claws: http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd232/koksu_k/Space%20Lizards/2LCTerminators-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peacekeeper Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I love these. I laughed so hard when I saw the Daemon Princes. This is a very well done army in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typical Cricket Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Egad! I am no longer the man with the coolest Slann. Or are they Slaan now? Hehe, geddit? But seriously, nice work. I will be watching this thread with extreme interest just to see what sort of awesome stuff you're whipping together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kojo Posted February 17, 2011 Author Share Posted February 17, 2011 Thanks guys, and yeah, I geddit :P Here is some more Space Lizards, first three Chaos Raptors with metal sticks in their #2: http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd232/koksu_k/Space%20Lizards/Raptors.jpg And one basic Noise Marine + Champion: http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd232/koksu_k/Space%20Lizards/NoiseMarineChampion.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidKits Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 ok this army is awesome very well done. amazing conversions i love the work you put into em and to be honest my marines would love to have a show down with these gaint mutant space lizards. *can't help but think of the TV show 'V' when i see em* oh and *chuckles* this is gonna sound really terrible... i mean honestly terrible but when i looked at your two flying slann deamon princes the one the right just suddenly screamed at me. "Gordi La Toad" ... doesn't help i'm watching star trek next gen when i saw this *snickers* if he was wearing a black and brown/gold uniform i would most likely have fallen out of my chair laughing. as it is... i almost did.

Sevej Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 This is fantastic and inspiring! Yeah, it sorts of remind me to the 80s shows, but in a good way! I like it that despite the garish colors, you manage to keep the consistency. Truly worthy of Slaanesh madness! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kojo Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 DavidKits, maybe little less Star Trek today? ;) And you say more madness, here's more madness! Terminator Champion: http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd232/koksu_k/Space%20Lizards/TerminatorChampion.jpg 2 Terminators: http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd232/koksu_k/Space%20Lizards/2Terminators.jpg Vindicator: http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd232/koksu_k/Space%20Lizards/Vindicatorleft.jpg and http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd232/koksu_k/Space%20Lizards/Vindicatorright.jpg As you can see from the Vindicator pic, my "studio" is getting a bit too small. I guess even my current army won't fit in it ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
