The Balefire Acolyte is just drunk on power 

:laugh: I like that :biggrin: Thank you :smile:

 

I hit the file size limit with my last post, so here's a quick pic of the finished Kill Team - I'll get more, better ones over the next couple of days:

Thank you all for your kind comments! :smile:

This team looks fantastic. I love the subtle purple.

Thank You :smile: I think purple is quite a good 'neutral' colour for Chaos, it's a mix of the two colours most connected with Tzeentch (blue) and Khorne (red), infected skin is often purple (so fitting for Nurgle), and it fits Slaanesh too. I use the colours to represent the 'Mark' the model will likely have in game.

I always seem to do a very good first eye (by this mean centred, and even width), and then can NEVER match the second one, either in shape or "gaze" direction....

Yes, thats usually my issue - looking at these close up, I think there's a couple where that's happened :sweat:

 

So as promised, there's a better pic of the Kill Team, and of each member, in the gallery:

 

I've also made a video:

I'm going to get some more pics in coming days - Codex/White Dwarf style 'battle scene' pics with some other miniatures, for a Campaign source booklet I'm working on. I'll post them here in due course! After that, I'll go back to the 4 remaining members of the Roster and finish those... Thanks for looking! :smile:

  • 2 months later...

So, after a good almost 3-month break, I return to this Kill Team - to finish off the final 4 and complete the Roster :sweat: Why the break? Well, I've been working on a few pieces of terrain (which you can see on the recent posts of my Instagram account), but now my hobby space is cleared enough to get the Legion of Taurus back on it :laugh:

 

I'd left these about 75-80% done, with the armour and undershirt almost complete - so it's the other details left to do. 

 

IMG_20230322_204548.thumb.jpg.fb137edf1f744c42751eedab338248e8.jpg

 

I'm wanting to get these done by mid-April, as I'm running a Kill Team narrative campaign and want to use the whole Roster for it. Hopefully I can get these done in time..! :huh::biggrin:

  • 3 weeks later...

As per usual, my progress finishing these is slow - though painting has very much had to take a back seat this week as my wife has been in hospital. She's home now and doing much better, thankfully - and now I can go back to these Chaos Marines. 

 

And actually, they're not too far of being done - there are a couple that just need the lenses doing and they're finished (bases aside). I feel confident I can do these before next weekend!

I forgot to post pictures of some other minis I've finished in the last few weeks - so I can take a Roster of Traitor Marines, including a Cultist fire team, I painted a handful of Cultists. 

 

IMG_20230406_225828.thumb.jpg.9cbef13c5aa3a856f03dbcd2493b5d07.jpg

 

I'll get some pictures of the full Roster towards the end of next week, as well as pictures of the finished Legion of Taurus Chaos Marines (hopefully..!) 

Thank you @ZeroWolf and @gaurdian31 :smile:

 

I've managed to finish the first of this final 4 - the Melta-gunner:

I'll get better pics when I've finished the other three. It's good to get one of these done, anyway! :biggrin:

...and another done - here's the Icon Bearer:

IMG_20230410_213901.thumb.jpg.f8908e2af32acd4249114f4f76a51761.jpg

 

Feeling confident the final two will be finished by Friday now - so I should definitely have the full Roster for the Kill Team campaign I'm running which starts next Monday..! :smile:

Thank you @gaurdian31 - they're the Sector Imperialis bases, I didn't spend too much time on them if I'm honest, I just made sure to pick out the right details (and used a bit of Agrax Earthshade :laugh:)

 

After deciding that I really didn't need to give the details another final, final touch up :biggrin: I am calling the final two Chaos Marines done :smile: Not the best pics (apologies), but here you go - Anointed and Champion:

I'll get better pics of these, as well as of the entire Kill Team roster, later this week. 

 

 

Really like the mutated hand on the anointed, the color choice is very nice and creepy. You also did great job on the champion, the shoulder pads really pop!  I've got those bases as well and the color scheme you went with on yours works really well. Can't wait for the group shots!

Thank you @gaurdian31 and @Urauloth :smile: The worn leather was fun to paint, normally Snakebite Leather contrast is how I'd do those quickly, but it was satisfying to build up highlights from a darker brown.

 

As promised, here are some better pics of the four finished Legionaries:

There are more pics in the gallery album I created for this Kill Team; but here's a pic of the entire roster (minus two 'regular' Legionaries with Boltguns):

Done in time for the Kill Team campaign I'm running to begin next week :biggrin: I might get some more pics of the entire roster in due course, but that's it for this Kill Team. Of course, the next step is to expand it to a full army - I've a few other things I want to do before then, but it will happen eventually..! :wink:

 

Thanks for looking! :smile:
