Hi folks,

 

I'm starting a new chaos warband based on the Purificator (known according to the CSM Codex for their hatred of all living creatures).

 

I made a test run on this guy.

Since I liked the color scheme I started working on a standard beared

 

 

WIP (he's just a one-armed pole beared at the moment)

C&C welcomed. Cheers.

Hmm, neat. I like the coloring on the head-flame-hair thingy, though it looks kinda awkward from a modeling standpoint coming out of one tiny point like it is now.

 

Mind sharing the recipe for the basic pallid-off-green on the armor? It seems awfully close to a color I'm considering for a little side project of my own, and after a couple years painting Black Templars you tend to forget your way around the GW color wheel :devil: .

Thanks for your nice feedbacks guys. :)

 

Painting the green of the armor is quite simple:

 

Under a base coat of Charadon Granite I painted the armor in Gretching Green

 

then I used a wash of Gryphonne Sepia

 

Highlighting was done with Cammo Green

 

That's it. :P

 

The color scheme of the Purge is quite similar indeed but apparently they are described as different chapters/warbands in the CSM codex.

 

One more picture of the "flaming head" standard bearer:

Thanks for your nice feebacks folks.

 

Loving that Aspiring Champion, the Mk III lid works really well and the paint job is seriously nice.

 

Yes I found that MKII or MkIII bits fit the CSM quite well, which is logical since they are supposed to mostly use pre-heresy or heresy era armors. I think MkV parts would be nice as well.

Thanks :lol:

 

Another update: Melta gunner, featuring a :lol: mold line I only noticed once it appeared on the picture... :mellow:

5 done, 5 (and hopefully many more) to go.

I'm almost done with the 1st squad. I just need to do some (minimal) basing and to add pistol holsters and grenades to avoid possible complains about non wysiwygness

1st squad completed:

2nd squad will be Plague Marines. While expensive they are pretty hard to kill so they would be perfect for holding obtectives. I bought myself some Fine Cast Plague Marines (which, much to my surprise proved...finely casted) + Forge World's Plague Marines conversion kit.

 

I started with a base coat of Gretchin Green and a dry brush of Prince August German Yellow, metal parts were painted in Mithril Silver:

The shading was done with Gryphone Sepia and a wash of Ogryn Flesh on the fleshy parts of the mini:

Then I added a wash of Baal Red on the gory parts, and did the highlighting with German Yellow:

The skulls and tabard were base coated with Dened Stone, washed with Gryphone Sepia and highlighted with Bleached Bone.

 

 

C&C are welcome.
