timwrightii Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Here are some shots of my WIP Chaos army. It is a list themed around Typhus and zombies as well as Nurgle Bikers. The Nurgle bikers are being being represented by Chaos Knights converted for 40k. I know what you're thinking, horses in space, but it was something I just wanted to do for no other reason than I thought I could do it well. I like the GW Typhus model well enough but I wanted to convert up my own using the picture from the new book as inspiration. http://i.imgur.com/POkAJl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ElA2pl.jpg Here is one of the zombies converted from a DV cultist. http://i.imgur.com/iWgbHl.jpg Two words. Chain. Lances. http://i.imgur.com/2BC44l.jpg Here is one of the more dynamic riders. http://i.imgur.com/4k7Bml.jpg http://i.imgur.com/VUbQll.jpg Also an Obliterator I'm converting up since my list has 4 but only 3 come in the box. http://i.imgur.com/BMcF5l.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/265778-typhus-and-bikers-themed-army-wip/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
spafe Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Holy papa nurgle! Those models are amazing! I'm seriously jealous of your skills. How many points you have? what list or only for display? When will we see some painted? Can we have some more pics of the cultists/zombies? Sooo many questions, sorry lol. They are amazing, I love the details on the riders/horses, esp the wires coming out of mutated areas. Also loving the barbed wire on the zombie model, very nice touch! Looking forward to more Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/265778-typhus-and-bikers-themed-army-wip/#findComment-3237824 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we have some more pics of the cultists/zombies? It is a 2k point list I'm working on. Converting everything up before I paint so it will probably be a while before there are painted models. The list is as follows: HQ - 230 Typhus (230) Troops - 636 27 Chaos Cultist (122) Plague Zombies. • Cultist Champion 26 Chaos Cultist (118) Plague Zombies. • Cultist Champion 6 Plague Marines (198) 2× Plasma Gun. • Plague Champion 6 Plague Marines (198) 2× Plasma Gun. • Plague Champion Fast Attack - 830 9 Chaos Bikers (325) 2× Plasma Gun; Mark of Nurgle. • Chaos Biker Champion: Power fist; Mark of Nurgle. 9 Chaos Bikers (325) 2× Plasma Gun; Mark of Nurgle. • Chaos Biker Champion: Power fist; Mark of Nurgle. 5 Spawn (180) Mark of Nurgle. Heavy Support - 304 2 Obliterator (152) Mark of Nurgle. 2 Obliterator (152) Mark of Nurgle.

Dez Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I'm still smiling over the fact we are both using Warriors of Chaos Knights for Bikers! The GS work looks good, I like the Cultists.

timwrightii Posted November 15, 2012 Author Share Posted November 15, 2012 Put in some work on the back of the obliterator.

spafe Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Thanks for such a concise reply. The list seems fun, and very much plays to the theme of hordes of ZOMBIES!!! I'm loving the zombies, truly epic stuff, the exposed brain, and the other with the ribs showing are amazing. I'm also loving the idea of modelling maggots on them, consider that idea stolen for my MoN culitists! (well once I have some greenstuff rather than crappy milliput). Looking forward to updates!

timwrightii Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 Moar zombies and moar shoulder pads. Any one have any zombie ideas? I'm taking requests. http://i.imgur.com/lTo7fl.jpg Typhus shoulder pad. http://i.imgur.com/H4Ev7l.jpg Obliterator shoulders. I'm loving this guy so much. He's coming out better than Typhus, which might be a problem. http://i.imgur.com/PNjoAl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/DPNt4l.jpg Also, sneak peak of a zombie WIP http://i.imgur.com/HLMQOl.jpg Also, why not, a shot of the whole army minus Spawn. http://i.imgur.com/AMRSV.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/265778-typhus-and-bikers-themed-army-wip/#findComment-3240226 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurglez Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 looking pretty nice, though I can't help but think that Typhus' head looks a bit too big for his body. Right, zombie ideas, one with his severed arm as a weapon, one just the top half crawling forwards, one with his head almost chopped off and hanging down his back and one with a huge hole through him (so you can see his ribs and stuff). keep up the good work, also liking your obliterator, though I'm not usually a fan of overkill on the weapons like that, it works for your one :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/265778-typhus-and-bikers-themed-army-wip/#findComment-3240291 Share on other sites More sharing options...
timwrightii Posted November 19, 2012 Author Share Posted November 19, 2012 Zombie update. Here is a few more of the poor DV cultists. This poor guy lost his hands in the conversion. http://i.imgur.com/dyjjSl.jpg This guy, while still a WIP, lost his legs. http://i.imgur.com/xAs0Sl.jpg And this guy, well he won't have much luck keeping food down. http://i.imgur.com/o3bvVl.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/265778-typhus-and-bikers-themed-army-wip/#findComment-3241542 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azekai Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Me gusta. Those zombie conversions look like they were great fun!

truesonofruss Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 you sir are a man of great works... If you painting is half as good as your GS abilities I may have to make a sacrifice or two in your name to tempt you into a tutorial or or two on how you went about some of those zombies...if sacrifices are your thing...if not I can find something else:).

timwrightii Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 Thanks for the replies. I suppose I'm alright at painting.

timwrightii Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 Well I finished converting the zombies today, 43 of them.

timwrightii Posted December 16, 2012 Author Share Posted December 16, 2012 Alright, been a little over a week since I've had an update, but I got a little work done on the spawn over the last couple of days. There is something seriously wrong with me.

notsoevil Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Great conversion work. The zombies are inspiring. I was just wondering if I was going to use Cultists as the base and I think you've convinced me. Nice list you're building towards too.
