Dr. Ruminahui's mostly Slaaneshi stuff

[Dr_Ruminahui]

Thanks @Firedrake Cordova - I'm still not completely sold on my plasma recipe, but its better than my previous ones, so it will do until I find something that really clicks with me.  Anyway, I'm glad you like it.

 

I've finished my demon prince - must say I'm pretty happy with him.

 

 

I did him quartered, with my Emperor's Children magenta and a metallic purple that I intend to use for my  Heretic Astartes raptors - the main reason it took so long to paint this guy was it took forever for me to find and decide on a metallic purple I liked for the raptors and him.  This scheme was chosen (like with my 3-pistol lord exultant/Cypher stand in) so that he would look like he belongs when I use him in either force.

 

Here are some pictures of his back (I did the reiklander wash for all the flesh except the inside of the wings, and I didn't want to make that portion of the model too dark) with each of the other weapon options - I magnetized them in case they ever become separate options again.  The weapon options don't really show up well from the front, so I figured this was the best way of showing them.

 

 

And here is a picture with the old demon prince - the new one is a huge glow up.

 

 

Once I figure out how I want to highlight the magenta, I'll come back and highlight the armour, but for now he's done.

I like the green of the weapons, gives them a nice color pop

Finished my second squad of new noise marines:

 

In doing so I hit a couple of important hobby milestones:

a)  I've now painted all of the models I airbrushed purple last summer; and

b)  I've now painted over 1/2 of the EC models (in points) I own (and not including any models I painted for my Heretic Astartes but use in my EC army).

Great job on the milestones. I've always liked how you used the cloaks for unit markings

[Dr_Ruminahui]

Thanks, @sitnam - I'm particularly happy with how the cloaks have come out, both for their aesthetics and how they help keep the units separate and identifyable when I do get them in a game.

 

Here's a picture of the backs of both my noise marine squads together.

 

 

Not sure what colour I'll do the cloaks on my third squad - maybe yellow?  In any case, I want it to be a warm colour, as I'm using cooler colours (blue, green, not decided on my third colour) for my infractors.

What about a red or burgundy?

[EmprahsStrongestGuardsman]

You have an orange (yellow) and a pink (red), why not some kind of turquoise (blue), just to round it out.

Not a bad idea, but I've reserved the cooler colours for my Infractor squads - and indeed, the one squad I've done so far was done in blue.  So my third noise marine squad will need to be in a warm colour.

 

And @Firedrake Cordova, those might work - ostensibly, the pink one was "red" (pink undercoat with a red wash), but I could try the effect again with a different pink as the base colour to maybe get a redder overall colour.  Anyway, when the time comes I'll play around with some options to see what I like best.
