Komrad Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 The Chosens of Khorne The only 5 Khorne Bezerkers that survives Khârn's berserk fury of killing his own units. Khorne gaze upon the 5 survivors and bestow gifts to them. Each a monstrous roaring weapon, one was given the privilege of carrying the Standard of Apocalypse. The imagery of the standard bears no form, but an ever changing flow of shifting skulls. The Blood Angels finest, a Sanguinary Guard is cruelly decapitated and displayed on the tip of the banner as a grim reminder of all who challenges the Chosens of Khorne. http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/7434/dsc01690ml.jpg http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/7721/dsc01698l.jpg http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/8492/dsc01692dp.jpg http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/481/dsc01693n.jpg http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/3912/dsc01694h.jpg http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/8003/dsc01695c.jpg http://img710.imageshack.us/img710/1201/dsc01696h.jpg http://img219.imageshack.us/img219/360/dsc01697wr.jpg These 5 units are meant for a local tournament that I will be participating. It is a house rule unit and without further ado I started working on them. I thought up of a concept and came to a conclusion that the following must be added: -Massive...massive melee weapons. -A standard bearer that really stands out. -Overall a theme that fits the army but borderline bombastic. Here is the WIP of the models. *Note the banner tip was later replaced with a dead Sanguinary Guard, which is more cooler anyway.* http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/410/dsc01615i.jpg http://img813.imageshack.us/img813/6594/dsc01617.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firepower Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Khorne iz da biggest and da strongest!!! WAAAAG..er..BLOOOOOD! :teehee: That's a whole lotta choppin' goodness there. Excellent painting on them too. I'm not a huge fan of the cartoonishly over-sized Ork weapons, but that's just a difference in taste I suppose. Love the banner, by the way :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GooseDaMoose Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Brilliant! I love em! And I'm not usually a fan oversized melee weapons or deamonic possession but these guys unarguably look great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMan Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 The dude with the two axes looks a little odd to me, i think one would have probably been big enough, but overall these look great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Styphus Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Those chosen are quite bombastic, khorney-fantastic. You definitely achieved what you were going for with the bearer. Very moving; if I was a blood anger player I would stop at nothing to try to topple that pole and retrieve the body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W. Balmephinstein Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 I think the cloaks almost look like flayed skin, it's freakin awesome.

Dave the Twisted Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Nice job. I'm seriously feeling some good ol' fashioned hatred oozing from these models. Banner looks spectacular. Did a great job blending bits from across all those different sets and ranges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muskie Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 These look great. Chosen are a personal favourite unit of mine. I like dreaming up crazy squads and then converting them. These guys are pretty weighed down by gear, but they look great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sponsra Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 The general oversized, herois-scale style of many GW minis usually put me off, but look here what a little paintingskills can do. These truly look great! Love the cloaks and the smooth transitions from red to purple and the nuances in the skins really show off your obviously great painting skills! Can you keep it up for an entire army? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightOfTheRaven Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I would make a joke about khorne but i would fear for the safety of my skull. Awesome models. I really would like to see the sanguinary guard close up because it looks brilliant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halan Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Excellent stuff, and I really like the standard. Is that a DE Archon head on the centre model? I have to say that Chaos as an army never really appealled to me but a unit this characterful gives me second thoughts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
