The Noise Marine looks great, complete with neon hair :biggrin: 

 

The marbling effect on the bases looks really nice, too. :smile: 

 

On the new Drop Pod - remember it can only be assembled with the doors open, which makes it a pain to store and transport, as well as limiting modelling opportunities, so your blood, sweat, and tears spent assembling the old model might not have been in vain. :smile:

Phew been a while. Mostly been working on spraying and basing things - army building rather than details. Made good progress though so all my chaos stuff is now assembled with just a bit more basing and spraying to go. Some sample photos

Some behind the scenes progress. I’ve got the cerastus knight twins assembled just need to add chaos flavour. World eaters almost all based. Slaanesh daemons a bit slower progress. Hoping to base these guys then move away from chaos for a few months. Later in the year will revisit the cerastus knights and get chaos knights on bases, revisit iron warriors once saturnine is released and tie up loose ends with thousand sons. Then my year of chaos can end in success!
 

In the meantime I want to sort through all my terrain over the summer and get some paint on it as I’m aiming to get my home gaming table back in action come the advent of 11th edition.

Great to see all that chaos - you should consider vowing some of it for the Call to Arms event.


Thanks for the suggestion. I’m gradually easing back into painting and have got the next 6 months mapped out to get through my pile of shame. Definitely planning to switch to more painting by the time  next edition lands though. 
 

For now I’m painting Khârn and azrakh while finishing off the slaanesh daemons. Once they are done in the next few weeks I’m moving on to scenery for a few months. I’ve got some group shots of the world eaters but too large to upload sadly.

i'm sorry, no offence but what this skull baby milkbottle demonengine is?
also nice work with building this horde


none taken, its a Budget take on a cannon of khorne I made some years back. Basically a sweet jar on its side with wheels / clay. I couldn’t bring myself to bin it so I thought I’d spray it up alongside the rest. I had visions of it being a proxy vindicator but now they can’t be taken.

Is this magnetic sheet on the bottom?

 
Yes it’s a ferrous sheet 0.75mm and holds the models very well. Trying to phase them in over time but costings approx as below:

 

- really useful boxes from b and m £5 4L and £6 9L 


- ⁠magnet shop (eBay / Amazon) .75mm ferrous sheets £18 for 10 (enough for 8 boxes) 


- ⁠100x magnets approx £8 off eBay - 5mm x 2mm (does 25mm / 28.5mm and some of the larger bases) 5mm x 2.5mm for everything else.

 

i would approximate it costs around £40 for every 3 boxes of models including the magnets. (About what’s needed for your average 2-3000 point army.

Got some impromptu Templars speed painted last couple of days for a games tomorrow. Nice to see them in the magnetized boxes.
