You seem to be in the middle of at least three projects all at once between Erebus, your Cawdor gang and ultramarine primaris, let alone real life!

 

Haha! :D Interestingly, I had one day about a month ago in which I had nothing, NOTHING on my painting desk. I decided to take on Erebus and Kor Phaeron. I had been putting them off for so long that I was super looking forward to them. 

 

Then I got invited to a Kill Team tournament. 

 

Then they released Cawdor.

 

I still plan on painting my Kill Team (at least the ones I built specifically for the tourny), and I am 100% going back to the Cawdor. I just never seem to have the time to paint. 

 

So I went from nothing I needed to paint, to three different projects. :D

Work in Progress of Erebus! I need to fix the flame on his right leg, and I need to tidy up the symbols on the script, but waiting till more of the model is put together to do any final work.

Having just finished an erebus for a friend, I can say you're a braver soul by far in the use of all those colours for the blind. I just did mine straight up bronze for everything; the model has so many things going on, I figured I'd save myself any headache on clashing textures.

Thanks chaps. Glad you like! Honestly this model is a bloody nightmare to paint, but since he is the BEST CHARACTER IN THE HISTORY OF 40K!!! I am letting him off. :D

 

I like bad guys, what can I say. :P

Remember that Dark Apostle you hated painting? Go back and look at it; most of the designs for erebus are lifted right off of that model, to the point that its pretty much the same thing give or take some bling and parchment.

Yeah tell me about it, the detail on Erebus is much clearer though. The Dark Apostle mini did not go through the casting process very well. At least, the one I got didn't. It could just have been a bad batch. 

 

But yeah, it's Erebus, I need more baddies in my life! :D

Not had much time for painting recently, but I am plodding along as best I can with Kor Phaeron.

I am very glad they changed their colour scheme during the heresy, finding this grey armour a little dull to paint! :D

Kor Phaeron is finished, and here is a pic of his good self and Erebus representing! :D

I am not entirely sure I am that keen on their bases, or the scenic base. Nothing wrong with it, just not sure it fits my other Word Bearers.

 

Here is some pics of Kor Phareon on his own. I love how this guy walks into his suit of terminator armour, and the contrast between the heretical red armour and the loyalist grey is pretty damn sweet.

My own real issue with this model is the face. It looks like he has had a stroke. This may actually be intentional. His creaking body has been pumped full of so many drugs and undergone so many surgeries, that his features represent that. But it doesn't look sinister, it just looks a bit derpy. Other than that, I am pleased with these two. Loads of the detail is difficult to pick out on these models, and I think I managed to get away with it!
