Here is mine try for blastmaster, hope it will give you some inspiration 

 

wow, just wow. That's amazing. What did you use?

 

Im guessing here, but I think it is the Kakophoni Sonic doodad as a base with some form of Volkite or Ad Mech techy wub wubs on the Disco end?

[Sonoftherubric21]

Did anyone else see those new Age of Sigmar Naga looking "dark Elves"?  If those dont look Slanneshi then I dont know what does. 

I can already see a Slannesh-themed renegades and heretics list coming from that, probably backed up by chaos marines and chaos daemons. "Slannesh soup" if you will......Sounds dirty....just the way "She who Thirst" likes it! 

 

Anyone got thoughts on that sort of idea in here? a mixed list of Slanneshi daemons, Slanneshi renegades/Heretics, and EC or Slanneshi renegades?

Well yeah. Of course we've seen those when we've seen Morathi already lol

oh did people? I didnt, I saw morathi a few days ago.  i thought it was a minor stand alone kinda release.  Didnt know about the Medusae looking models; fantastic lineup. even for 40k.

Yeah they're fantastic models indeed.

Tho I don't think I'd use them for any Slaanesh Cult. It just feels wrong considering their lore. Tho for snakeform Morathi I'd make an exception. :D

[RolandTHTG]

Of course, fluff wise, the snakey bits are apparently due to contamination from Slaanesh temporarily swallowing those souls. So I'd definitely expect snakes to become the theme animal of Slaanesh, the way Tzeentch gets birds and Nurgle flies.

I hope this is the case!  Id love to see a unique Daemon Prince kit, snake-Prince. 

 

Fulgrim of course we all know will look akin to his art in some way. 

 

Noise marines and so many more possibilities.

don't forget about Khorne and his hounds.

 

I'd love to see GW go with a more predominant snake theme for slaanesh. Anything to get away from the crab claws that are so often associated with the Prince of excess.

[Leonite]

So. Hi everyone. I've decided that, while I have my Word Bearers, Thousand Sons and Death Guard... at least part of my Word Bearers stuff, including my traitor Blood Angels turned Noise Marines, could make for good Emperor's Children. And to help that, I also have some Eldar Models I had been planning on using as actual Eldar.... but I think with a bit of green stuff and using daemon parts from my collection, I can turn my Wraithlord into a Daemon Prince of Slaanesh and Wraithguard/blades into Obliterators/Terminators/Possessed. Thoughts?

[Lord_Quesnel]

I really like the idea of some slaanesh "infected" eldar army. I’d love to see some pictures if you ever do it.

[Kierdale]

I think it sounds excellent.

I have a similar plan for a Daemon Prince (corrupted wraithlord). I hadn’t thought of using wraithguard/blades into Obliterators/Mutilators but it’s an excellent idea.

 

 

I have a question for the thread: how would you arm a Knight so it best compliments an army of Noise Marines and Slaanesh daemons? What gap in our armoury can it best fill?

[Gederas]

Not a Slaanesh player, but, imo, the issue is this:

Noise Marines have the shooty, the Slaaneshi Daemons have the melee.

 

So in all honesty, it depends on what you want the Knight to do more. Shooty, melee or mixed. Personally, in a Slaanesh Daemonkin force, I'd go for a shooty Knight, but that's just me.

 

A Knight is both swiss-army knife, and giant hammer. It can fill a lot of roles, but is also massively strong at those roles.

[WarriorFish]

You mean aside from magnetised? ;) A pure shooty build can do a lot but I think that's a waste of the combat potential so a flexible build works as a default. Use it to target the things your main forces may struggle with, and deliver a beating to tough units in combat that would tear through your lines otherwise :)

[DreamIsCollapsing]

Noise marine are especially anti-hordes dakka, Slaanesh daemon are close combat. If you want a corrupted Knight i would say take a Dakka anti-tanks one. 

[Kierdale]

Magnetising.

I knew you’d say that. :D

I’ll see what I can do.

[WarriorFish]

The Knight kit is easy to magnetise, so no excuses :lol:;)

[Gederas]

So, a question all.

 

I've gotten inspiration (thanks to Daioude of the Blog de Kouzes and Kierdale) for a small-ish Slaanesh force. Currently it's still in the planning stages, but I'm wondering:

Should I get the Noise Marine upgrade kits to prepare, or wait until they come out with a plastic version of Noise Marines that's rumoured for sometime this or next year?

[Panzer]

I'd honestly wait. I mean I wait since we knew about the DG release already so what's a year or what more. :D

[Gederas]

Fair point

 

I just enjoy having models to paint. Main reason I enjoy having three armies (Nurgle Daemonkin/Death Guard, Khorne Daemonkin/World Eaters, Dark Angels) as of right now . Plus, Slaanesh makes it easier for some twisted conversion ideas

[WarriorFish]

I agree, they've got to be around the relative corner. If you can't wait the FW Kakophoni are pretty cool :tu:

[Gederas]

Funny you should mention those, I was actually thinking of getting a squad of Kakophoni and Eidolon and chaos'ing them up (Chaos Backpacks, Raptor Shoulder pads, etc) . But only a single squad of Kakophoni, as they're frigging expensive. Like, around 55 bucks for 5.

[hushrong]

But they are soooo pretty.

[Kierdale]

You could work on the other models in the army in the meantime. Vehicles, Raptors, whatever else you want in it but we don’t expect to be replaced with new models.

 

Unfortunately it seems the pack of 5 CSM backpacks is no longer produced. It’s a shame as it made conversions of loyalist models chaos so much easier.

 

And thanks :)

Yeah, I could. I likely will Likely to involve Raptors, and a Land Raider. Maybe a Sonic Dreadnought conversion (likely with a Loyalist dreadnought as the basis?).

 

And yeah, that being gotten rid of 'd me off. I was about ready to buy like.... ten of those. Now I need to possibly buy the normal Chaos Marines. Ah well :lol:

 

And you're welcome. Your Psychopomps are honestly one of the main reasons why I'm even contemplating this. Though I might not do pastel pinks, prolly the lilac Daioude's are. Simply because I liked the pre-Heresy colours, but adding black and lightening the purple looks awesome

[Leonite]

My bringers of perfection... what would you suggest HQ wise for a perspectuve future Enperors Children player who has a Slaaneshi Daemon Prince and a Palatine Blades kit to use already? Including one glued up with a crab claw.
